Benefits of the Hadith: (Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: “We used to sell our sarariyyat, the mothers of our children...”).

The Shaykh : As for the second hadith, the hadith of Jabir, I think its benefits are few, because it is derived from it that selling the mothers of children is permissible in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
It is also derived from it that the ruling changes when circumstances change, if there is a cause that necessitates changing the original ruling, in which case there is no harm in it. However, changing the ruling to a new Shari'ah on a permanent basis is not possible after the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). But if a cause is found that necessitates changing the ruling, then there is no harm in following this public benefit. However, as I said, this is not changing the ruling on a permanent basis and abolishing the original ruling, because there is no abrogation except by the Book and the Sunnah. Rather, it is specifying the ruling based on a cause that necessitated it on a temporary basis, not on a permanent basis.
