In page History of concubinage in the Muslim world:

"

In slave-owning societies, most, but not all, concubines were slaves.[5] In the Muslim world, as in about one-third of non-Islamic slave-holding societies, a concubine was typically freed after giving birth to her master's child.[a] In Islamic culture, a slave who bore a child to a free man was known as an umm al-walad, could not be sold, and, in most circumstances, at her owner's death, was freed.[8] The children of concubines in Islamic societies were generally declared as legitimate.[6] Among societies that did not legally require the manumission of concubines, it was often done anyway.[citation needed]
