Chapter on the Punishment of One Who Mutilates His Slave or Accuses Him of Adultery While He Is Innocent
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 5247 — on the Punishment of One Who Mutilates
عَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَمْ يُعْفَى عَنِ الْمَمْلُوكِ قَالَ فَصَمَتَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ أَعَادَ فَصَمَتَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ أَعَادَ فَقَالَ يُعْفَى عَنْهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً
(Second chain) A man came to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! How many times should a servant be forgiven? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent. He repeated the same question, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent. When he asked the same question a third time, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: He should be forgiven seventy times a day.
