وَ رَوَى جَعْفَرُ بْنُ بَشِيرٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَبِي اَلْعَلاَءِ عَنْ أَبِي مَخْلَدٍ اَلسَّرَّاجِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُ قَضَى فِي رَجُلٍ دَعَا آخَرَ اِبْنَ اَلْمَجْنُونِ وَ قَالَ اَلْآخَرُ لَهُ بَلْ أَنْتَ اِبْنُ اَلْمَجْنُونِ فَأَمَرَ اَلْأَوَّلَ أَنْ يَجْلِدَ صَاحِبَهُ عِشْرِينَ جَلْدَةً وَ قَالَ "اِعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ سَتُعَقَّبُ مِثْلَهَا عِشْرِينَ فَلَمَّا جَلَدَهُ أَعْطَى اَلْمَجْلُودَ اَلسَّوْطَ فَجَلَدَهُ عِشْرِينَ نَكَالاً يُنَكِّلُهُمَا".
Ja'far ibn Bashir narrated from Al-Husayn ibn Abi Al-'Ala from Abu Makhlad Al-Sarraj from Abu Abdullah (a.s): Imam (a.s) ruled concerning a man who called another "the son of a madman," and the other replied to him, "Rather, you are the son of a madman." Imam (a.s) commanded the first man to flog his companion twenty lashes and said: "Know that you will also be given twenty lashes in return." After the first man flogged him, the flogged man was given the whip and he flogged the first man twenty lashes as a means of punishment to discipline both of them.
