Now, if the owner of the slave-girl made a claim over her, and the usurper said that the slave-girl had died, the ruler made him pay the price. After this, if the owner found his slave-girl alive, he will take back his slave-girl and return the price that the usurper had paid. It will not be that the price paid by the usurper becomes the purchase price of the slave-girl, making her the property of the usurper. Some people have said that the slave-girl becomes the property of the usurper because the owner has already taken her price from him. This verdict has been given as if it is a way for a person to obtain any slave-girl he desires: he can forcibly seize anyone’s slave-girl, and when the owner makes a claim, he will say she has died and pay the owner her price. After that, he will enjoy someone else’s slave-girl without worry, because in his false belief, the slave-girl has become lawful for him. However, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“The wealth of one another is forbidden for you,”and he said:“On the Day of Resurrection, a flag will be raised for every deceiver (so that everyone will know about his deceit).”

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: The Prophet said, "For every betrayer there will be a flag by which he will be recognized on the Day of Resurrection. "
