Chapter on What Necessitates Discretionary Punishment, Legal Punishment, Stoning, Execution, and Exile in Adultery
وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْقَاسِمِ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "مَنْ غَشِيَ اِمْرَأَتَهُ بَعْدَ اِنْقِضَاءِ اَلْعِدَّةِ جُلِدَ اَلْحَدَّ وَ إِنْ غَشِيَهَا قَبْلَ اِنْقِضَاءِ اَلْعِدَّةِ كَانَ غِشْيَانُهُ إِيَّاهَا رَجْعَةً لَهَا".
Narrated by Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub from Muhammad ibn Al-Qasim, who said that Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Whoever has intercourse with his wife after the completion of her waiting period ('iddah) is to be subjected to the prescribed punishment (hadd). However, if he has intercourse with her before the completion of her waiting period, that act is considered a return (reconciliation) to her."
