Punishment of betrayal of trust, theft, drinking wine and fornication

حَدَّثَنِی جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَلِیٍّ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ عَنْ أَبِیهِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُغِیرَهِ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ أَبِی الصَّحَارِی عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ شَارِبِ الْخَمْرِ فَقَالَ لَا یَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ صَلَاتَهُ مَا دَامَ فِی عُرُوقِهِ مِنْهَا شَیْ ءٌ.
7. It was narrated to me by Ja’far b. Ali from his father from al-Hussain from his father al-Hassan b. Ali from Abdillah b. al-Mughira from al-Abbas b. ’Amir from Abi al-Sahari from Abi Abdillah عليه السلام who said: Once Imam Ja’far Sadiq was asked about the ruling regarding a drunkard. Imam عليه السلام replied, “His prayers will not be accepted till a time even a single drop of wine is present in his veins.”
