beating is done in order to keep her as she is. we have one example that refers to the loyalty of a slave girl who was sold after her first master died but she refused to obey the wishes of her next owner. she denied her knowledge of singing and accepted service despite the beating and torture she suffered.
الضرب رجاء استبقائها على حالها، ولدينا مثال واحد يشير إلى وفاء جارية بيعت بعدما مات سيدها الأول فأبت أن تنصاع لرغبة مالكها التالي، وانكرت علمها بالغناء ورضيت بالخدمة رغم ما نالها من ضرب وتعذيب .
