قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) لَوْ وَجَدْتُ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْعَجَمِ أَقَرَّ بِجُمْلَةِ الْإِسْلَامِ لَمْ يَأْتِهِ شَيْ‏ءٌ مِنَ التَّفْسِيرِ زَنَى أَوْ سَرَقَ أَوْ شَرِبَ الْخَمْرَ لَمْ أُقِمْ عَلَيْهِ الْحَدَّ إِذَا جَهِلَهُ إِلَّا أَنْ تَقُومَ عَلَيْهِ بَيِّنَةٌ أَنَّهُ قَدْ أَقَرَّ بِذَلِكَ وَ عَرَفَهُ .


Translation

Ali, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from the one who reported it, from Abu Ubeyda who said, ‘Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If I<sup>asws</sup> were to find a man from the non-Arabs who accepted with the entirety of Al-Islam, not been given anything from the explanation of adultery, or theft, or drinking the wine, I<sup>asws</sup> would not establish the Penalty (<span class="iTxt">Hadd</span>) upon him when he is ignorant, except if the proof were to be established that he had previously accepted with that, and recognised it’.
