Chapter on a Man Who Kills His Son, His Father, or His Mother
وَ رَوَى عَمْرُو بْنُ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يَقْتُلُ اِبْنَهُ أَوْ عَبْدَهُ قَالَ "لاَ يُقْتَلُ بِهِ وَ لَكِنْ يُضْرَبُ ضَرْباً شَدِيداً وَ يُنْفَى مِنْ مَسْقَطِ رَأْسِهِ".
Amr ibn Shimr narrated from Jabir from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام regarding a man who kills his son or his slave. Imam عليه السلام said: "He is not to be killed for that, but he should be severely beaten and exiled from his hometown."
