Chapter on Zihar (Declaring One's Wife Unlawful Like a Mother)
وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ حُمْرَانَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَجُلٌ قَالَ لِأَمَتِهِ أَنْتِ عَلَيَّ كَظَهْرِ أُمِّي يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُرْضِيَ بِذَلِكَ اِمْرَأَتَهُ قَالَ "يَأْتِيهَا وَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهَا وَ لاَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ".
Abdullah ibn Bukayr narrated from Humran who said: I asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about a man who said to his female slave, "You are to me as the back of my mother," intending by this statement to please his wife. Imam عليه السلام replied: "He may approach her (the slave), and there is nothing upon her or upon him."
