John Shaqi

سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ امْرَأَةٍ ذَاتِ بَعْلٍ زَنَتْ فَحَبِلَتْ فَلَمَّا وَلَدَتْ قَتَلَتْ وَلَدَهَا سِرّاً قَالَ تُجْلَدُ مِائَةَ [جَلْدَةٍ] لِقَتْلِهَا وَلَدَهَا وَ تُرْجَمُ لِأَنَّهَا مُحْصَنَةٌ قَالَ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ امْرَأَةٍ غَيْرِ ذَاتِ بَعْلٍ زَنَتْ فَحَبِلَتْ فَقَتَلَتْ وَلَدَهَا سِرّاً قَالَ تُجْلَدُ مِائَةً لِأَنَّهَا زَنَتْ وَ تُجْلَدُ مِائَةً لِأَنَّهَا قَتَلَتْ وَلَدَهَا.

He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘She would be whipped one hundred lashes due to killing her child, and she would be stoned (to death) because she was married (while committing immorality)’.
