Chapter on What Has Been Reported Regarding Adultery
وَ رَوَى عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي اَلْمِقْدَامِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "كَانَ فِيمَا أَوْحَى اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى إِلَى مُوسَى بْنِ عِمْرَانَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "يَا مُوسَى بْنَ عِمْرَانَ مَنْ زَنَى زُنِيَ بِهِ وَ لَوْ فِي اَلْعَقِبِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ يَا مُوسَى بْنَ عِمْرَانَ عِفَّ تَعِفَّ أَهْلُكَ يَا مُوسَى بْنَ عِمْرَانَ إِنْ أَرَدْتَ أَنْ يَكْثُرَ خَيْرُ أَهْلِ بَيْتِكَ فَإِيَّاكَ وَ اَلزِّنَا يَا مُوسَى بْنَ عِمْرَانَ كَمَا تَدِينُ تُدَانُ" ".
Narrated by Amr ibn Abi Al-Miqdam from his father, from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام, who said: "It was among what Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Exalted, revealed to Musa ibn Imran عليه السلام: O' Musa ibn Imran عليه السلام, whoever commits adultery will have adultery committed against him, even if it occurs in his progeny after him. O' Musa ibn Imran عليه السلام, preserve your chastity so your family will remain chaste. O' Musa ibn Imran عليه السلام, if you desire the goodness of your household to increase, then beware of adultery. O' Musa ibn Imran عليه السلام, as you act, so will it be done to you."
