Does the Hadith mean that the Companions did not commit zina when they practiced azl during their intercourse with captive women?
The aforementioned permitted coitus interruptus (al-azl), and it was narrated in the collections of Al-Bukhari and Muslim that the Companions asked the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, about it. The motive for performing coitus interruptus was their dislike of the slave women becoming pregnant, and their desire to sell them, because the pregnancy of a slave woman prevents her sale. The Hadith indicates that coitus interruptus does not prevent Allah's decree regarding procreation.
The Companions enjoyed the slave women they had acquired through jihad, and this is not adultery, for Allah has permitted enjoyment of those whom one's right hand possesses.
