Hadith record

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Amro Bin Usman, and from his father, altogether from Haroun Bin Al Jahm, from Muhammad Bin Muslim who said, ‘I heard Abu Ja’far asws and Abu Abdullah asws both saying: ‘Whilst Al-Hassan Bin Ali asws was in a gathering of Amir Al-Momineen asws , when a group of people came over, so they said, ‘O Abu Muhammad asws ! We want Amir Al-Momineen asws ’. He asws said: ‘So what is your need?’ They said, ‘We want to ask him a question’. He asws said: ‘And what is it that you want to be informed with?’ So they said, ‘A woman, her husband copulated with her. So when he stood up from her, she stood up with her warmth, so she fell upon a virgin slave girl. So she performed the lesbian act with her. So the sperm fell inside her (the slave girl), so she became pregnant. So what are you asws saying with regard to this?’ So Al-Hassan asws said: ‘It is a dillemma and Abu Al-Hassan asws is (appropriate) for it, and I asws am saying, so if I asws get it right, so it is from Allah azwj , then from Amir Al-Momineen asws , and if I asws were to err, so it is from myself asws , so I asws hope that I asws shall not err, Allah azwj Willing. He should deliberate to the woman and take the dower of the virgin slave girl for her during the first opportunity, because the child would not come out from her until she is split, so her virginity would go away. Then the woman would be stoned because she is married. Then the slave girl would be awaited with until she gives birth to what is in her belly, and the child would be returned to its father, the owner of the sperm. Then the slave girl would be whipped the Penalty ( Hadd )’. He asws said: ‘So the people dispersed from the presence of Al-Hassan asws , so they met up with Amir Al-Momineen asws . So they said they had said to Abu Muhammad asws and what he asws said to you all, so they informed him asws . So he asws said: ‘Had it been me asws who had been questioned, there would not have been with me asws any more that what my asws son asws has said’.
