and as the prophet may god bless him and grant him peace made his wives the mothers of the believers although they did not give birth to them or breastfeed them and in some readings and his wives are their mothers and he is a father to them based on his saying the religion of your father abraham. and he made the woman through breastfeeding a mother and he made the wife of the husband the mother of the husbands child from another and he made the paternal uncle a father in the book of god. and they are his slaves and they do not change except in what he has changed them in. and it is up to him to make from among his slaves whomever he wishes an arab and whomever he wishes a nonarab and whomever he wishes a qurayshite and whomever he wishes a negro just as it is up to him to make whomever he wishes male and whomever he wishes female and whomever he wishes a hermaphrodite and whomever he wishes he made separate from that and made him neither male nor female nor hermaphrodite.
وكما جعل النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أزواجه أمهات المؤمنين وهن لم يلدنهم ولا أرضعنهم، وفي بعض القراءات وأزواجه أمهاتهم وهو أب لهم ، على قوله ملة أبيكم إبراهيم . وجعل المرأة من جهة الرضاع أما، وجعل امرأة البعل أم ولد البعل من غيرها، وجعل الراب والدا، وجعل العم أبا في كتاب الله. وهم عبيده لا يتقلبون إلا فيما قلبهم فيه. وله أن يجعل من عباده من شاء عربيا ومن شاء عجميا، ومن شاء قرشيا، ومن شاء زنجيا؛ كما له أن يجعل من شاء ذكرا ومن شاء أنثى، ومن شاء خنثى، ومن شاء أفرده من ذلك فجعله لا ذكرا ولا أنثى ولا خنثى.
