Primary text

If the slave requests marriage, contracting the marriage becomes obligatory (yata'ayyan) upon the guardian because it is a right she has requested, necessitating compliance. Any resulting loss of service rights for the subsequent generation occurs secondarily to fulfilling her right, and thus must be permitted, similar to the case of marrying an unendowed slave upon her request.
