Chapter on Additions

Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from Muhammad ibn Abi Hamzah, from Rifa'ah, who said: I (narrator) asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about ‘a man who touched a slave-girl (jariyah) in the month of Ramadan and emitted pre-seminal fluid (madhy).’ Imam عليه السلام said: “If it was unlawful, then let him seek forgiveness from Allah سبحانه وتعالى with the seeking of forgiveness of one who will never return, and let him fast a day in place of a day. And if it was lawful, he should seek forgiveness from Allah سبحانه وتعالى and not return, and fast a day in place of a day.”
