حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ، عَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ رُوَيْفِعِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ فَلاَ يَسْقِ مَاءَهُ وَلَدَ غَيْرِهِ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجْهٍ عَنْ رُوَيْفِعِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ . وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ لاَ يَرَوْنَ لِلرَّجُلِ إِذَا اشْتَرَى جَارِيَةً وَهِيَ حَامِلٌ أَنْ يَطَأَهَا حَتَّى تَضَعَ . وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَالْعِرْبَاضِ بْنِ سَارِيَةَ وَأَبِي سَعِيدٍ .

Umar ibn Hafs al-Shaybani al-Basri narrated to us: Abdullah ibn Wahb narrated to us: Yahya ibn Ayyub narrated to us, from Rabi'ah ibn Sulaym, from Busr ibn Ubayd Allah, from Ruwayfi ibn Thabit, from the Prophet, who said: Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day must not pour his water upon the child of another. Abu Isa said: This hadith is hasan, and it has been narrated through more than one route from Ruwayfi ibn Thabit. Scholars act on this and do not allow a man who buys a slave woman while she is pregnant to have intercourse with her until she gives birth. It is also reported in this chapter from Abu al-Darda, Ibn Abbas, al-Irbad ibn Sariyah, and Abu Sa'id.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The hadith uses a metaphor about a man's water and another's child; the compiler explains its application to intercourse with a pregnant slave woman.
