Companion’s words (mawquf) Muwatta Malik 1183
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي الأَمَةِ تَكُونُ تَحْتَ الْعَبْدِ فَتَعْتِقُ إِنَّ الأَمَةَ لَهَا الْخِيَارُ مَا لَمْ يَمَسَّهَا . قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَإِنْ مَسَّهَا زَوْجُهَا فَزَعَمَتْ أَنَّهَا جَهِلَتْ أَنَّ لَهَا الْخِيَارَ فَإِنَّهَا تُتَّهَمُ وَلاَ تُصَدَّقُ بِمَا ادَّعَتْ مِنَ الْجَهَالَةِ وَلاَ خِيَارَ لَهَا بَعْدَ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا .

ahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar said that a female slave who was the wife of a slave and then was set free, had the right of choice as long as he did not have intercourse with her.
Malik said, "If her husband has intercourse with her and she claims that she did not know, she still has the right of choice. If she is suspect and one does not believe her claim of ignorance, then she has no choice after he has had intercourse with her."
Reported by Malik (No. 1183 ).

( ش ) : قَوْلُهُ فِي الْأَمَةِ تَكُونُ تَحْتَ الْعَبْدِ فَتُعْتَقُ : أَنَّ لَهَا الْخِيَارَ مَنْ تَعَلَّقَ بِدَلِيلِ الْخِطَابِ اقْتَضَى ذَلِكَ عِنْدَهُ أَنَّهَا إِذَا كَانَتْ تَحْتَ الْحُرِّ أَنْ لَا خِيَارَ لَهَا , وَهُوَ مَذْهَبُ مَالِكٍ , وَإِنْ لَمْ يَقُلْ بِدَلِيلِ الْخِطَابِ لِمَا قَدَّمْنَاهُ , فَإِنَّ الرُّتْبَةَ الَّتِي تَحْصُلُ لَهَا بِالْحُرِّيَّةِ فَوْقَ رُتْبَةِ الْعَبْدِ فَأَوْجَبَ لَهَا ذَلِكَ الْخِيَارَ , وَإِذَا كَانَ زَوْجُهَا حُرًّا لَمْ تَكُنْ بِالْعِتْقِ أَرْفَعَ رُتْبَةً مِنْهُ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهَا الْخِيَارُ. ( فَصْلٌ ) وَقَوْلُهُ : إِنَّ لَهَا الْخِيَارَ مَا لَمْ يَمَسَّهَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ لَا يَخْتَصَّ خِيَارُهَا بِالْمَجْلِسِ الَّذِي يَعْلَمُ فِيهِ بِعِتْقِهَا بَلْ لَه…
