Punishment of having an intention to commit a sin openly among believers

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ یَعْقُوبَ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِیلَ عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ أَذَاعَ فَاحِشَهً کَانَ کَمُبْتَدِئِهَا وَ مَنْ عَیَّرَ مُؤْمِناً بِشَیْ ءٍ لَا یَمُوتُ حَتَّی یَرْکَبَهُ.
