37/20. Chapter:

The earnings of prostitutes and female-slaves

وَكَرِهَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَجْرَ النَّائِحَةِ وَالْمُغَنِّيَةِ. وَقَوْلُ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى: {وَلاَ تُكْرِهُوا فَتَيَاتِكُمْ عَلَى الْبِغَاءِ إِنْ أَرَدْنَ تَحَصُّنًا لِتَبْتَغُوا عَرَضَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَمَنْ يُكْرِهْهُنَّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ مِنْ بَعْدِ إِكْرَاهِهِنَّ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ}. وَقَالَ مُجَاهِدٌ: {فَتَيَاتِكُمْ} إِمَاؤُكُمْ.Ibrahim hated the earnings of female wailers and female singers. The Statement of Allah تعالى: “…And force not your maids to prostitution, if they desire chastity, in order that you may make a gain in the (perishable) goods of this worldly life. But if anyone compels them (to prostitution) then after such compulsion, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful (to those women i.e., He will forgive them because they have been forced to do this evil action unwillingly)” (V.24:33).

Sahih BukhariHadith Number 2282

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَهَى عَنْ ثَمَنِ الْكَلْبِ وَمَهْرِ الْبَغِيِّ وَحُلْوَانِ الْكَاهِنِ‏.‏

Narrated Abu Mas`ud Al-Ansari: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) regarded illegal the price of a dog, the earnings of a prostitute, and the charges taken by a soothsayer.
