Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad, from Al Abbas Bin Marouf, from Abu Shuayb Al Mahamily Al Rafaiy who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah^asws about a man who accepted a man about digging of a well of a depth of ten statures for ten Dirhams. So he dug up to one stature then was frustrated from it (refused to dig further). So he^asws said: ‘For him would be one part out of fifty-five parts from ten Dirhams’.<a id="_ftnref1542"></a>^[1542] (See Hadeeth below - <span style="font-size: small">Ch 17 H 22 </span>for calculation) Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Umar Bin Yazeed, from Abu Al Moala, Abu Abdullah^asws has said: ‘They came to Umar Bin Al-Khattab with a woman who had attached (her heart) to a man from the ‘الْأَنْصَارِيَّ’ (a local man of Medina), and had desired him, but she was not able to have a way to him. So she went (to him) and took and egg and extracted the yolk from it, and applied the albumen upon her clothes in between her thighs. Then she came over to Umar and said, ‘O commander of the faithful! This man has disgraced me in such and such a place, so he shamed (raped) me’. So Umar understood that he should punish the ‘الْأَنْصَارِيَّ’ (a local man of Medina) Helper, so he made the Helper to swear an oath, and Amir Al-Momineen^asws was seated, and he was saying, ‘O commander of the faithful, prove my matter’. So when the youth frequented it, Umar said to Amir Al-Momineen^asws, ‘O Abu Al-Hassan^asws! What is your^asws view’. So Amir Al-Momineen^asws looked at the whiteness upon the clothes of the woman and between her thighs, so he^asws accused her that she was defrauding with that. So he^asws said: ‘Come to me with hot water which has boiled with intense boiling’. So they did it. So when they came up with the water, he^asws ordered them, so they splashed it upon the place of the whiteness. So that whiteness solidified. So Amir Al-Momineen^asws took it and cast it in his^asws mouth. So when he^asws recognised its taste, he^asws threw it out from his^asws mouth. Then he^asws faced towards the woman until she confessed with that, and Allah^azwj Mighty and Majestic Defended the ‘الْأَنْصَارِيَّ’ (local resident of Medina) from the punishment of Umar’.
