‘When a Satan called al-Qafandar, plays the lute in a man’s home and men come in his house, that Satan places every part of his body on the similar one of that man, owner of the house, then he blows in him a blow and thereafter that man does not exercise any vigilance or protective measures even if people go to his wom

ثَلَاثَةٌ لا يُكَلِّمُهُمُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيامَةِ وَ لا يُزَكِّيهِمْ وَ لَهُمْ عَذابٌ أَلِيمٌ الشَّيْخُ الزَّانِي وَ الدَّيُّوثُ وَ الْمَرْأَةُ تُوطِئُ فِرَاشَ زَوْجِهَا.
“Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘On the Day of Judgment Allah will not speak to three kinds of people and will not cleanse them and they suffer a painful suffering. One is an old fornicating man, a pimp and a woman who allows men to go in the bed of her husband with her.’”

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that ’Amir al-Mu’minin in a letter to al-Hassan (a.s.), has said, ‘You must be on your guard against vigilance and protectionism in an improper instance because it can lead the ones (of women) with perfect manners into one of ill-behaving one, however, you must fortify their (women’s) c
