Hadith.5681 - Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id narrated from Muhammad ibn Al-Hasan ibn Abi Khalid Al-Ash'ari, who said
One of our companions wrote to Abu Ja'far Al-Thani (as) through me, asking Imam (as) about a man who committed adultery with a woman, and she became pregnant. Later, he married her after the pregnancy, and she gave birth to a child who resembled him more than anyone else in creation.
Imam (as) wrote back in his own handwriting and with his seal:
"The child is the result of fornication and does not inherit."

كَتَبَ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا إِلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ اَلثَّانِي عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ مَعِي يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ فَجَرَ بِامْرَأَةٍ فَحَمَلَتْ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ تَزَوَّجَهَا بَعْدَ اَلْحَمْلِ فَجَاءَتْ بِوَلَدٍ وَ اَلْوَلَدُ أَشْبَهُ خَلْقِ اَللَّهِ بِهِ فَكَتَبَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ بِخَطِّهِ وَ خَاتَمِهِ "اَلْوَلَدُ لِغَيَّةٍ لاَ يُورَثُ".
