The quote in question is: “Sarah encouraged him to sleep with the slave Hajjar.”

I agree this may be a poor choice of words. However, I did not find any conclusive evidence in the Quran or Sunnah that Prophet Ibrahim actually married Hajjar. Hajjar was a slave and Allah allows Muslim men (even during Prophet Ibrahim’s a.s. time) to have sex with their slaves. It is not a sin and not something that should be considered shameful.

Also, this quote was in reference to Sarah’s point of view, not Prophet Ibrahim a.s.

While I would certainly consider using a better phrase, I cannot say that Prophet Ibrahim married her if it is not true that he did.

And Allah knows best.

Why are you using the phrase “sleep with her” in reference to Prophet Ibrahim marring Hajjar and conceiving a child from her. It is more respectful to use the word marry when referring to such a person as Prophet Ibrahim, who is among the 5 BEST HUMAN BEINGS ALLAH EVER CREATED. Please take this sincere advice into consideration. Thank you
