What is the ruling when a mortgaged female slave must be sold to satisfy a debt?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Pledges (Collateral)
Primary text
If a need arises to sell the female slave due to the debt, her child must be sold along with her. This is because combining them in the sale contract is possible, and separating them during the sale is forbidden. Therefore, selling the child with the mother becomes obligatory.
