Chapter on Zihar (Declaring One's Wife Unlawful Like a Mother)
وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ اَلسَّكُونِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلٍ آلَى مِنِ اِمْرَأَتِهِ وَ ظَاهَرَ فِي كَلِمَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ قَالَ "عَلَيْهِ كَفَّارَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ".
In the narration of Al-Sakuni, he said that Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام was asked about a man who both swore an oath (ilaʾ) and declared ẓihar (a form of divorce by comparison) against his wife in a single statement. Imam عليه السلام said: "He is obligated to offer only one expiation."
