Chapter on the Legal Punishment of Slaves in Adultery
وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ اَلْحَارِثِ بْنِ اَلْأَحْوَلِ عَنْ بُرَيْدٍ اَلْعِجْلِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي أَمَةٍ تَزْنِي قَالَ "تُجْلَدُ نِصْفَ اَلْحَدِّ كَانَ لَهَا زَوْجٌ أَوْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهَا زَوْجٌ ".
Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Al-Harith ibn Al-Ahwal from Burayd Al-ʿIjli from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام regarding a slave woman who commits adultery. Imam عليه السلام said: "She is to be lashed half the prescribed punishment, whether she has a husband or does not have a husband."
