The Ruling on a Woman Marrying Her Slave

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible for a slave to have intercourse with his mistress?

Answer:
No, this is not permissible. It is not permissible for a woman to marry her slave; this is forbidden. It is not permissible, and if she did it, it would be unlawful sexual intercourse. Yes, rather, it is the master who may take a concubine from his female slave. As for the woman, she does not benefit from her male slave, neither through intercourse nor affection; she does not contract marriage with him.
