Hazrat Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "A slave girl committed adultery and the prescribed punishment was carried out, then she repented and became righteous. Her uncle was hesitant to arrange her marriage, fearing that the secret might be revealed. When this matter was reported to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: 'Arrange her marriage like that of righteous women.'"

It was written to Hazrat Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) from Syria that a woman has committed adultery; should she be married? He replied: "Marry her and do not mention her incident."

Ibrahim Nakha'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "If a man marries a virgin slave-girl and before consummation she commits fornication, then separation should be made between them and there will be no dowry."

Hazrat Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "The prescribed punishment (hadd) will be carried out on the woman and she will remain in her husband's marriage, just as if the husband commits adultery, his wife is not taken away from him."

Hazrat Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "If a virgin woman commits adultery and is exiled from the city, she will remain in her husband's marriage. If a man does the same, the ruling is the same for him."

Ibrahim Nakha'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Women cannot conduct the marriage contract."

Similarly, there is also a narration from Ibrahim Nakha'i (may Allah have mercy on him).

Sulaiman bin Yasar (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "The Sunnah is that a woman should neither contract marriage for herself nor for anyone else."
