Hadith 265

Hadith.5235 - It is narrated from Amr ibn Abi Al-Miqdam who said
I was present at the Sacred House (Al-Bayt Al-Haram) when a man was calling out to Abu Jafar Al-Dawaniqi while he was performing ṭawaf (circumambulation) and said: "O' Commander of the Faithful! These two men came to my brother at night, took him out of his house, and he never returned to me. By Allah (swt), I do not know what they did to him."
Abu Jafar asked the two men: "What did you do to him?"
They replied: "O' Commander of the Faithful! We only spoke to him, and then he returned to his house."
Abu Jafar said to them: "Meet me tomorrow at this place at the time of the afternoon prayer (ṣalat Al-Aṣr)."
The next day, they met him at the appointed time. Abu Jafar took hold of the hand of Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) and said: "O' Jafar (as), judge between them."
Imam Jafar (as) replied: "You judge between them."
Abu Jafar insisted: "I swear by my right over you, you must judge between them."
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) then went out, and a prayer mat made of reeds was laid out for him. Imam (as) sat upon it, and the disputants sat before him.
Imam Jafar (as) asked the claimant, "What do you say?"
The man replied: "O' son of the Messenger of Allah (swt)! These two men came to my brother at night, took him out of his house, and by Allah (swt), he never returned to me. By Allah (swt), I do not know what they did to him."
Imam Jafar (as) then turned to the two men and said: "What do you both say?"
The two men replied: "O' son of the Messenger of Allah (swt)! We only spoke to him, and then he returned to his home."
Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "O' servant, write:
'In the name of Allah (swt), the Most Merciful, Most Compassionate. The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: 'Whoever comes to a man at night and takes him out of his home is responsible for him unless he brings evidence that he returned him to his house.'"
Then Imam (as) said: "O' servant, separate one of them and strike his neck."
The man exclaimed: "O' son of the Messenger of Allah (swt)! I did not kill him, but I only held him, and this man came and struck him, killing him."
Imam Jafar (as) said: "I am the son of the Messenger of Allah (swt). O' servant, separate this one and strike his neck for the other."
The second man cried: "O' son of the Messenger of Allah (swt)! By Allah (swt), I did not torture him; I killed him with a single strike."
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) ordered his brother to strike his neck.
Then, Imam (as) commanded that the first man be lashed on his sides and imprisoned.
Imam (as) wrote on his record: He shall be imprisoned for life and lashed fifty times every year.

كُنْتُ شَاهِداً عِنْدَ اَلْبَيْتِ اَلْحَرَامِ يُنَادِي بِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ اَلدَّوَانِيقِيِّ رَجُلٌ وَ هُوَ يَطُوفُ وَ يَقُولُ يَا أَمِيرَ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنَّ هَذَيْنِ اَلرَّجُلَيْنِ طَرَقَا أَخِي لَيْلاً فَأَخْرَجَاهُ مِنْ مَنْزِلِهِ فَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ إِلَيَّ وَ وَ اَللَّهِ مَا أَدْرِي مَا صَنَعَا بِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا مَا صَنَعْتُمَا بِهِ

فَقَالَ يَا اِبْنَ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ إِنَّ هَذَيْنِ طَرَقَا أَخِي لَيْلاً فَأَخْرَجَاهُ مِنْ مَنْزِلِهِ وَ وَ اَللَّهِ مَا رَجَعَ إِلَيَّ وَ وَ اَللَّهِ مَا أَدْرِي مَا صَنَعَا بِهِ فَقَالَ "مَا تَقُولاَنِ"
فَقَالاَ يَا اِبْنَ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ كَلَّمْنَاهُ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "يَا غُلاَمُ اُكْتُبْ "بِسْمِ اَللّٰهِ اَلرَّحْمٰنِ اَلرَّحِيمِ"
قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ "كُلُّ مَنْ طَرَقَ رَجُلاً بِاللَّيْلِ فَأَخْرَجَهُ مِنْ مَنْزِلِهِ فَهُوَ لَهُ ضَامِنٌ إِلاَّ أَنْ يُقِيمَ اَلْبَيِّنَةَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ رَدَّهُ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ" يَا غُلاَمُ نَحِّ هَذَا اَلْوَاحِدَ مِنْهُمَا وَ اِضْرِبْ عُنُقَهُ" فَقَالَ يَا اِبْنَ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ مَا أَنَا قَتَلْتُهُ وَ لَكِنِّي أَمْسَكْتُهُ ثُمَّ جَاءَ هَذَا فَوَجَأَهُ فَقَتَلَهُ فَقَالَ "أَنَا اِبْنُ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ يَا غُلاَمُ نَحِّ هَذَا فَاضْرِبْ عُنُقَهُ لِلْآخَرِ"
فَقَالَ يَا اِبْنَ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ وَ اَللَّهِ مَا عَذَّبْتُهُ وَ لَكِنِّي قَتَلْتُهُ بِضَرْبَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ فَأَمَرَ أَخَاهُ فَضَرَبَ عُنُقَهُ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِالْآخَرِ فَضَرَبَ جَنْبَيْهِ وَ حَبَسَهُ فِي اَلسِّجْنِ وَ وَقَّعَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ يُحْبَسُ عُمُرَهُ يُضْرَبُ كُلَّ سَنَةٍ خَمْسِينَ جَلْدَةً.
