سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الْمَرِيضِ أَ لَهُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ فِي تِلْكَ الْحَالِ قَالَ لَا وَ لَكِنْ لَهُ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَ إِنْ شَاءَ فَإِنْ دَخَلَ بِهَا وَرِثَتْهُ وَ إِنْ لَمْ يَدْخُلْ بِهَا فَنِكَاحُهُ بَاطِلٌ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Ibn Bukeyr, from Ubeyd Bin Zurara who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the sick (man), is it for him that he divorces his wife during that state?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘No, but for him is the he gets married if he so desires to. So if he were to copulate with her, she would inherit him, and if he does not copulate with her, so his marriage is invalid’.
