سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَشْتَرِي الْجَارِيَةَ وَ لَمْ تَحِضْ قَالَ يَعْتَزِلُهَا شَهْراً إِنْ كَانَتْ قَدْ مُسَّتْ قَالَ أَ فَرَأَيْتَ إِنِ ابْتَاعَهَا وَ هِيَ طَاهِرٌ وَ زَعَمَ صَاحِبُهَا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَطَأْهَا مُنْذُ طَهُرَتْ قَالَ إِنْ كَانَ عِنْدَكَ أَمِيناً فَمَسَّهَا وَ قَالَ إِنَّ ذَا الْأَمْرَ شَدِيدٌ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ لَا بُدَّ فَاعِلًا فَتَحَفَّظْ لَا تُنْزِلْ عَلَيْهَا .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Abdullah Bin Sinan who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the man who buys the slave girl and she does not menstruate. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He would isolate her for a month if she had been touched’. He said, ‘So what is your<sup>asws</sup> view if he would sell her and her owner claimed that he had not slept with her since she was pure?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If he was trustworthy with him, so he can touch her’. And he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘That is the difficult matter. So, if it was inevitable that he does it, so he should be careful he does not let the water descend into her’.
