سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَالَ لِامْرَأَتِهِ أَنْتِ عَلَيَّ كَظَهْرِ أُمِّي أَوْ كَيَدِهَا أَوْ كَبَطْنِهَا أَوْ كَفَرْجِهَا أَوْ كَنَفْسِهَا أَوْ كَكَعْبِهَا أَ يَكُونُ ذَلِكَ الظِّهَارَ وَ هَلْ يَلْزَمُهُ فِيهِ مَا يَلْزَمُ الْمُظَاهِرَ فَقَالَ الْمُظَاهِرُ إِذَا ظَاهَرَ مِنِ امْرَأَتِهِ فَقَالَ هِيَ كَظَهْرِ أُمِّهِ أَوْ كَيَدِهَا أَوْ كَرِجْلِهَا أَوْ كَشَعْرِهَا أَوْ كَشَيْ‏ءٍ مِنْهَا يَنْوِي بِذَلِكَ التَّحْرِيمَ فَقَدْ لَزِمَهُ الْكَفَّارَةُ فِي كُلِّ قَلِيلٍ مِنْهَا أَوْ كَثِيرٍ وَ كَذَلِكَ إِذَا هُوَ قَالَ كَبَعْضِ ذَوَاتِ الْمَحَارِمِ فَقَدْ لَزِمَتْهُ الْكَفَّارَةُ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Salih Bin Saeed, from Yunus, from one of his men, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about a man who said to his wife, ‘You are unto me like the back of my mother’, or ‘like her hand’, or ‘like her belly’, or like her private part’, or like herself’, or ‘like her heels’, does that happen to be <span class="iTxt">Zahaar</span>, and does it necessitate him in it what necessitates the perpetrator of <span class="iTxt">Zahaar</span>?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The perpetrator of <span class="iTxt">Zahaar</span>, when he does <span class="iTxt">Zahaar</span> from his wife, so he says she is like the back of his mother, or her hand, or like her feet, or like her hair, or anything from her, meaning by that the prohibition, so the expiation necessitates upon him in everything little from it or more, and similar to that is when he says it to some close relatives, so the expiation is necessitated upon him’.
