رَوَى حَمَّادُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ رَجُلٌ أَتَى رَجُلاً قَالَ "إِنْ كَانَ مُحْصَناً فَعَلَيْهِ اَلْقَتْلُ وَ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مُحْصَناً فَعَلَيْهِ اَلْحَدُّ" قُلْتُ فَمَا عَلَى اَلْمُؤْتَى بِهِ قَالَ "عَلَيْهِ اَلْقَتْلُ عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ مُحْصَناً كَانَ أَوْ غَيْرَ مُحْصَنٍ".
In the narration reported by Hammad ibn Uthman from Abu Abdullah (a.s), he said: I asked Imam (a.s) about a man who approached another man (committing sodomy). Imam (a.s) replied: "If the perpetrator was married (muhṣan), then his punishment is execution, and if he was not married, then the legal punishment (hadd) applies to him." I then asked: "What about the one who was approached?" Imam (a.s) replied: "He must be executed in all cases, whether he was married or unmarried."
