promise from him to that effect. ‘Abu bin Zam’a got up and said, “He is my brother and the son of the
slave-girl of my father and was born on my father’s bed.” Then they both went to the Prophet Sad
said, “O Allah’s Apostle! He is the son of my brother and he has taken a promise from me that I will
take him.” ‘Abu bin Zam’a said, “(He is) my brother and the son of my father’s slave-girl and was born
on my father’s bed.” Allah’s Apostle said, “The boy is for you. O ‘Abu bin Zam’a.” Then the Prophet
said, “The son is for the bed (i.e the man on whose bed he was born) and stones (disappointment and
deprivation) for the one who has done illegal sexual intercourse.” The Prophet told his wife Sauda
bint Zam’a to screen herself from that boy as he noticed a similarity between the boy and ‘Utba. So,
the boy did not see her till he died.
