Hadith 14

(The book) ‘Al Kafi’ – Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Al Hassan Bin Ali, from Zakariya Al Momin, from Ibn Muskan, from one of our companion, ‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘A man came with his wife to Umar and said, ‘This wife of mine is black, and I am black, and she has given birth to a white boy’. He said to the ones present, ‘What are your views? ’ They said, ‘We view that she should be stoned to death, for she is black, and her husband is black, and her child is white’. He (the narrator) said, ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws came, and they had already taken her for the stoning to death. He-asws said: ‘What is your situation? ’ They narrated to him-asws. He-asws said to the black man: ‘Are you accusing your wife (of adultery)? ! ’ He said, ‘No’. He-asws said: ‘And you went to her while she was menstruating? ’ She said, ‘Yes, ask him. It had been prohibited until him and I had refused’. He-asws said: ‘Free her for it is your child, and rather the sperm had overcome the blood, so he is white, and it had moved, (he would have been black)’. When he grew up, he was black’’. [17]
