What is the legal status and walaa' of a child born to a free father and a freedwoman mother?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Walā' (Patronage)
Primary text
If the father is free and the mother is a freedwoman, no walaa' is incurred upon the child if the father is of free origin. If the father is a freedman, walaa' is established upon his freedman's patrons initially, but it is not transferred further.
