Hadith.4891 - Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahbub narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from his father, from Abdullah ibn al-Fadl al-Hashimi, from Abu Abdullah (as) who said: I asked Imam (as), or a man asked Imam (as), about a man whose wife accused him of being impotent while the man denied it. Imam (as) replied: "The midwife should apply khaluq (a type of perfume) to her without the man's knowledge. Then the man should enter upon her. If he comes out and khaluq is found on his private part, he has spoken the truth and she has lied. But if it is not found, then she has spoken the truth and he has lied."
