Chapter on What the Pilgrim in the State of Ihram Must Avoid: Obscenity, Sin, and Disputation During Hajj

وَ سَأَلَ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنْ رَجُلٍ مُحْرِمٍ نَظَرَ إِلَى سَاقِ اِمْرَأَةٍ أَوْ إِلَى فَرْجِهَا فَأَمْنَى فَقَالَ «إِنْ كَانَ مُوسِراً فَعَلَيْهِ بَدَنَةٌ وَ إِنْ كَانَ وَسَطاً فَعَلَيْهِ بَقَرَةٌ وَ إِنْ كَانَ فَقِيراً فَعَلَيْهِ شَاةٌ» وَ قَالَ «إِنِّي لَمْ أَجْعَلْ عَلَيْهِ هَذَا لِأَنَّهُ أَمْنَى وَ لَكِنِّي جَعَلْتُهُ عَلَيْهِ لِأَنَّهُ نَظَرَ إِلَى مَا لاَ يَحِلُّ لَهُ».
Abu Basir asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about a Muhrim (one in a state of Ihram) who looked at the leg of a woman or her private part and ejaculated. Imam عليه السلام said: "If he is wealthy, he must offer a camel. If he is of moderate means, he must offer a cow. If he is poor, he must offer a sheep." Imam عليه السلام added: "I have not imposed this upon him because he ejaculated, but because he looked at what was unlawful for him."
