72. hadíth

وَ رَوَى عَاصِمٌ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَزْنِي وَ لَمْ يَدْخُلْ بِأَهْلِهِ أَ يُحْصَنُ قَالَ "لاَ وَ لاَ بِالْأَمَةِ".

In the narration of Aṣim from Muhammad ibn Muslim, he said: I asked Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (a.s) about a man who commits adultery but has not consummated marriage with his wife. Is he considered muhsan (legally married and liable for stoning)? Imam (a.s) replied: "No, and not with a bondwoman (amah) either."
