Chapter on What Has Been Reported Regarding Adultery
وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "قَالَ يَعْقُوبُ لاِبْنِهِ يُوسُفَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَا بُنَيَّ لاَ تَزْنِ فَإِنَّ اَلطَّيْرَ لَوْ زَنَى لَتَنَاثَرَ رِيشُهُ".
In the narration of Abdullah ibn Maymun from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام from his father, Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام, it is reported: "Prophet Ya'qub عليه السلام said to his son Yusuf عليه السلام: 'O' my son, do not commit fornication, for if a bird were to commit fornication, its feathers would fall off.'"
