What is the relationship between a slave woman and her master after marriage, and who receives the mahr?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, what is the relationship between a slave woman and her master after marriage, and who receives the mahr?

The Shaykh : The master is the one who receives the mahr.

The questioner :
And give them their wages وآتوهن أجورهن


The Shaykh : Yes, that is correct. However, the slave and whatever he owns belong to his master, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whoever sells a slave who has wealth, the wealth belongs to the seller, unless the buyer stipulates otherwise من باع عبدا وله مال فماله للذي باعه إلا أن يشرطه المشتري
Sahih Ibn Hibban 26:20
His relationship with her regarding sexual enjoyment was severed by the marriage. However, regarding looking at her, for example, she is not required to veil herself from him. He may utilize her, except at times when the husband is entitled to her service. Yes.
