2517. Jâbir bin 'Abdullâh was heard to say: "We used to sell our slave women and the mothers of our children (Umahât Awlâdina) when the Prophet ﷺ was still living among us, and we did not see anything wrong with that." (Sahih)

Arabic text

2517 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ: «كُنَّا نَبِيعُ سَرَارِيَّنَا وَأُمَّهَاتِ أَوْلَادِنَا، وَالنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِينَا حَيٌّ. لَا نَرَى بِذَلِكَ بَأْسًا»
