Chapter on Rare Cases of Legal Punishments

وَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: "اِدْرَءُوا اَلْحُدُودَ بِالشُّبُهَاتِ وَ لاَ شَفَاعَةَ وَ لاَ كَفَالَةَ وَ لاَ يَمِينَ فِي حَدٍّ".
The Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace be upon him and his family) said: "Avert prescribed punishments through doubts. There is no intercession, no guarantee, and no oath in matters of prescribed punishments."
