"Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) said: "A woman touching her daughter in an inappropriate manner once she has reached six years of age is a form of indecency (a branch of fornication)."
إِذَا صَلَّتِ الْمَرْأَةُ خَمْسَهَا وَ صَامَتْ شَهْرَهَا وَ حَجَّتْ بَيْتَ رَبِّهَا وَ أَطَاعَتْ زَوْجَهَا وَ عَرَفَتْ حَقَّ عَلِيٍّ ع فَلْتَدْخُلْ مِنْ أَيِّ أَبْوَابِ الْجِنَانِ شَاءَتْ[5].
"If a woman performs her five daily prayers, fasts during her month (Ramadan), performs Hajj to the House of her Lord (azj), obeys her husband, and acknowledges the right of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as), then she may enter Paradise through whichever gate she wishes."
أَلْهِمُوهُنَّ حُبَّ عَلِيٍّ ع وَ ذَرُوهُنَّ بَلْهَاءَ[2].

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) said: "Whoever acquires more bondwomen than he can marry or give in marriage, then the sin is upon him if they commit immorality."
فِي كِتَابِ عَلِيٍّ ع أَنَّ الْوَلَدَ لَا يَأْخُذُ مِنْ مَالِ وَالِدِهِ شَيْئاً وَ يَأْخُذُ الْوَالِدُ مِنْ مَالِ وَلَدِهِ مَا يَشَاءُ[1] وَ لَهُ أَنْ يَقَعَ عَلَى جَارِيَةِ ابْنِهِ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنِ الِابْنُ وَقَعَ عَلَيْهَا.
In the book of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as), it is written: "A child cannot take anything from the wealth of his father, but a father may take whatever he wishes from the wealth of his child. Additionally, a father is permitted to have relations with the bondwoman of his son, provided that the son has not had relations

"Commander of the Faithful (as) ruled in the case of a woman who allowed her slave to have relations with her and married him: She is to be given one hundred lashes, and the slave is to be given fifty lashes. The slave is then to be sold in a manner that ensures he is distanced from her (bi-sughrin minha). It is forbid
