6765. Narrated ‘Āishah رضي الله عنها: Sa’d bin Abī Waqqāṣ and ‘Abd bin Zam’a had a dispute over a boy. Sa’d said, “O Allāh’s Messenger! This (boy) is the son of my brother, ‘Utbā bin Abī Waqqāṣ, who told me to be his custodian as he was his son. Please notice to whom he bears affinity.” And ‘Abd bin Zam’a said, “This is my brother, O Allāh’s Messenger! He was born on my father’s bed by his slave-girl.” Then the Prophet ﷺ looked at the boy and noticed evident resemblance between him and ‘Utbā, so he said, “He (the boy) is for you, O ‘Abd bin Zam’a, for the boy is for the owner of the bed, and the stone is for the adulterer. Screen yourself before the boy, O Sauda bint Zam’a.” ‘Āishah added: Since then he never saw Sauda.
