Chapter on Zihar (Declaring One's Wife Unlawful Like a Mother)
وَ سَأَلَ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ أَبَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يُظَاهِرُ مِنْ جَارِيَتِهِ فَقَالَ "اَلْحُرَّةُ وَ اَلْأَمَةُ فِي هَذَا سَوَاءٌ".
Ishaq ibn Ammar asked Abu Ibrahim (Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim عليه السلام) about a man who performs ẓihar (a form of divorce by comparison) against his female slave. Imam عليه السلام replied: "In this matter, a free woman and a bondwoman are the same."
