I asked Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), "What is the least form of (nasb) hostility (towards the Ahlulbayt (as))?" Imam (as) replied: "It is when a man innovates something, and then loves because of it and hates because of it."

I asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a Muslim man who committed adultery with the bondwoman of his brother. What is his repentance?
