Is it permissible to sell a slave woman if her rebellion becomes severe?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
In the hadith of the slave woman, where the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered the sale of this slave woman whose rebellion had become severe and whose evil was feared to affect her household, he asks: Is it permissible to sell her, even though she may harm the buyer in his religion?

The Shaykh:
He sells her. If the buyer finds that she does not reform with him, he also sells her. And if she realizes that she is being sold from one person to another, this affects her and encourages her to repent. Yes.

The presenter:
I ask Allah for you, Your Eminence, the father. The questioner says.

The Shaykh:
He does not command anything except that there is wisdom in it, whether it appears to us or not. Yes.
