عَنْ نَافِعٍ: أَنَّ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتَ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّ عَبْدًا مِنْ رَقِيقِ الْإِمَارَةِ وَقَعَ على وليدةٍ من الخُمسِ فاستَكرهَها حَتَّى افتضَّها فَجَلَدَهُ عُمَرُ وَلَمْ يَجْلِدْهَا مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ استكرهها. رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ

Nafi' said he was informed by Safiya daughter of Abu ‘Ubaid that one of the Caliph’s slaves had intercourse with a girl who was among the fifth of the booty, forcing her to it against her will, and deflowered her. ‘Umar had him beaten but did not have her beaten because he had forced her against her will. Bukhari transmitted it.

Reported by Al-Bukhari (No. 6949) and Malik (No. 1517). Cited in Mishkat al-Masabih (No. 3580).

Weak Muwatta Malik 1517

Malik related to me from Nafi that a slave was in charge of the slaves in the khumus and he forced a slave-girl among those slaves against her will and had intercourse with her. Umar ibn al-Khattab had him flogged and banished him, and he did not flog the slave-girl because the slave had forced her.

حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدًا، كَانَ يَقُومُ عَلَى رَقِيقِ الْخُمُسِ وَأَنَّهُ اسْتَكْرَهَ جَارِيَةً مِنْ ذَلِكَ الرَّقِيقِ فَوَقَعَ بِهَا فَجَلَدَهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَنَفَاهُ وَلَمْ يَجْلِدِ…
