11- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَمَّنْ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ زُرْعَةَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) عَنْ رَجُلٍ بَاعَ جَارِيَةً عَلَى أَنَّهَا بِكْرٌ فَلَمْ يَجِدْهَا عَلَى ذَلِكَ قَالَ لا تُرَدُّ عَلَيْهِ وَلا يُوجَبُ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ إِنَّهُ يَكُونُ يَذْهَبُ فِي حَالِ مَرَضٍ أَوْ أَمْرٍ يُصِيبُهَا.
11. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from those whom he has mentioned from Zur’ah ibn Muhammad from Sama‘ah who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about the case of a man who sells a slave-girl as virgin but she is not found virgin. He (the Imam) said, ‘He cannot return and there is nothing on him, it (virginity) may go away because of illness or something that affects it.’”
