Chapter on the Punishment of a Woman for Practicing Magic on Her Husband
رَوَى إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ عَلَيْهِمُ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ لاِمْرَأَةٍ سَأَلَتْهُ أَنَّ لِي زَوْجاً وَ بِهِ عَلَيَّ غِلْظَةٌ وَ إِنِّي صَنَعْتُ شَيْئاً لِأُعَطِّفَهُ عَلَيَّ فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ "أُفٍّ لَكِ كَدَّرْتِ اَلْبِحَارَ وَ كَدَّرْتِ اَلطِّينَ وَ لَعَنَتْكِ اَلْمَلاَئِكَةُ اَلْأَخْيَارُ وَ مَلاَئِكَةُ اَلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَ اَلْأَرْضِ" قَالَ فَصَامَتِ اَلْمَرْأَةُ نَهَارَهَا وَ قَامَتْ لَيْلَهَا وَ حَلَقَتْ رَأْسَهَا وَ لَبِسَتِ اَلْمُسُوحَ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ اَلنَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ فَقَالَ "إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لاَ يُقْبَلُ مِنْهَا".
Ismail ibn Muslim narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام from his father, Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام, from his forefathers (peace be upon them), who said: A woman came to the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) and said: "I have a husband who is harsh with me, and I made something (a charm or spell) to make him more affectionate toward me." The Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said to her: "Woe to you! You have polluted the seas, corrupted the earth, and the righteous angels and the angels of the heavens and the earth have cursed you." The woman then fasted during the day, prayed during the night, shaved her head, and wore rough clothing as an act of repentance. When this was reported to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), he said: "None of this will be accepted from her."
