Chapter on Imprisonment Due to the Implementation of Rulings
وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ أَنَّ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "لاَ يُخَلَّدُ فِي اَلسِّجْنِ إِلاَّ ثَلاَثَةٌ اَلَّذِي يُمْسِكُ عَلَى اَلْمَوْتِ يَحْفَظُهُ حَتَّى يُقْتَلَ وَ اَلْمَرْأَةُ اَلْمُرْتَدَّةُ عَنِ اَلْإِسْلاَمِ وَ اَلسَّارِقُ بَعْدَ قَطْعِ اَلْيَدِ وَ اَلرِّجْلِ ".
In the narration of Hammad from Hariz, Abu Abdillah عليه السلام said: "No one is sentenced to life imprisonment except for three: the one who is held for murder and is kept until he is executed, the woman who apostasizes from Islam, and the thief after his hand and foot have been amputated."
