and those who cannot find a match should observe continence till allah provides them with means out of his bounty and if those who are in your possession ask for a deed of emancipation execute the deed of emancipation with them provided that you find some good in them and give them something out of the means allah has given you. and do not force your slavegirls into prostitution for your own worldly gains when they themselves want to keep chaste and if anyone forces them into it after such a compulsion allah will be forgiving and merciful for them.
وليستعفف الذين لا يجدون نكاحا حتى يغنيهم الله من فضله والذين يبتغون الكتاب مما ملكت أيمانكم فكاتبوهم إن علمتم فيهم خيرا وآتوهم من مال الله الذي آتاكم ولا تكرهوا فتياتكم على البغاء إن أردن تحصنا لتبتغوا عرض الحياة الدنيا ومن يكرههن فإن الله من بعد إكراههن غفور رحيم
