4478 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : فِي رَجُلٍ تَزَوَّجَ ذِمِّيَّةً عَلَى مُسْلِمَةٍ قَالَ "يُفَرَّقُ بَيْنَهُمَا وَ يُضْرَبُ ثُمُنَ اَلْحَدِّ اِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ سَوْطاً وَ نِصْفاً فَإِنْ رَضِيَتِ اَلْمُسْلِمَةُ ضُرِبَ ثُمُنَ اَلْحَدِّ وَ لَمْ يُفَرَّقْ بَيْنَهُمَا" قُلْتُ كَيْفَ يُضْرَبُ اَلنِّصْفَ قَالَ "يُؤْخَذُ اَلسَّوْطُ بِالنِّصْفِ فَيُضْرَبُ بِهِ".
Translation
Hadith.4478 - Imam Abu Abdullah (as) was asked about a man who married a Dhimmi woman (non-Muslim under Muslim protection) while already married to a Muslim woman. Imam (as) said: "They should be separated, and he should be given one-eighth of the prescribed punishment, which amounts to twelve and a half lashes. However, if the Muslim woman consents to it, he should still receive one-eighth of the punishment, but they should not be separated." I asked: "How is half a lash administered?" Imam (as) replied: "The whip is held by its middle, and he is struck with it."
