وَ رَوَى هِشَامُ بْنُ سَالِمٍ عَنْ عَمَّارٍ اَلسَّابَاطِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلٍ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ يَا اِبْنَ اَلْفَاعِلَةِ يَعْنِي اَلزِّنَا فَقَالَ "إِنْ كَانَتْ أُمُّهُ حَيَّةً شَاهِدَةً ثُمَّ جَاءَتْ تَطْلُبُ حَقَّهَا ضُرِبَ ثَمَانِينَ جَلْدَةً وَ إِنْ كَانَتْ غَائِبَةً اُنْتُظِرَ بِهَا حَتَّى تَقْدَمَ فَتَطْلُبَ حَقَّهَا وَ إِنْ كَانَتْ قَدْ مَاتَتْ وَ لَمْ يُعْلَمْ مِنْهَا إِلاَّ خَيْرٌ ضُرِبَ اَلْمُفْتَرِي عَلَيْهَا اَلْحَدَّ ثَمَانِينَ جَلْدَةً".
Hisham ibn Salim narrated from Ammar Al-Sabati from Abu Abdullah (a.s) regarding a man who said to another man, "O' son of an adulteress," intending adultery. Imam (a.s) said: "If his mother is alive and present, and she comes forward to claim her right, the accuser is to be flogged eighty lashes. If she is absent, it is to be delayed until she returns and claims her right. And if she has passed away and nothing is known of her except goodness, the one who falsely accused her is to be given the legal punishment - eighty lashes."
