The Rights of a Divorced Woman of mahr (dower) with Whom He has not Gone to Bed

مُحَمَّدٌ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فِي رَجُلٍ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً وَ أَمْهَرَهَا أَبَاهَا وَ قِيمَةُ أَبِيهَا خَمْسُمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ عَلَى أَنْ تُعْطِيَهُ أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ ثُمَّ طَلَّقَهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ بِهَا قَالَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهَا شَيْ‏ءٌ .
10. Muhammad has narrated from Ahmad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from al-Nadr ibn Suwayd from al-Qasim ibn Sulayman from ‘Ubayd ibn Zurarah who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about the case of a man who marries a woman and sets her (slave) father as her mahr (dower). His price is five hundred dirham; then he divorces before going to bed with her.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘She does not owe anything to him.’”
