Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man marries his female slave to his male slave, for example, does she remain his property such that he can have sexual relations with her?

Answer:
No, if he marries her, it is forbidden for him to take her as a concubine. If he marries her, it is not permissible for him to take her as a concubine, because she has become one of the married women. Allah the Exalted said:
