رَجُلٍ أَقَرَّ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ بِحَدٍّ ثُمَّ جَحَدَ بَعْدُ فَقَالَ إِذَا أَقَرَّ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ عِنْدَ الْإِمَامِ أَنَّهُ سَرَقَ ثُمَّ جَحَدَ قُطِعَتْ يَدُهُ وَ إِنْ رَغِمَ أَنْفُهُ فَإِنْ أَقَرَّ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَنَّهُ شَرِبَ خَمْراً أَوْ بِفِرْيَةٍ فَاجْلِدُوهُ ثَمَانِينَ جَلْدَةً قُلْتُ فَإِنْ أَقَرَّ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ بِحَدٍّ يَجِبُ فِيهِ الرَّجْمُ أَ كُنْتَ رَاجِمَهُ قَالَ لَا وَ لَكِنْ كُنْتُ ضَارِبَهُ الْحَدَّ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Aban, from Al Halby, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> regarding a man who accepted upon himself with a Penalty (<span class="iTxt">Hadd</span>), then denied it afterwards. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘When he accepted upon himself in the presence of the Imam<sup>asws</sup> that he had stolen, then denie, his hand would be cut in spite of his nose (haughtiness). So if he were to accept upon himself that he has drunk wine, or fabricated, so he would be whipped eighty lashes’. I said, ‘So if he were to accept upon himself with a Penalty (Hadd) in which the stoning is Obligated, would you<sup>asws</sup> have him stoned?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘No. But I<sup>asws</sup> would have whipped him the Penalty (<span class="iTxt">Hadd</span>)’.
