Juwaybir said that it is reported from al-Dahhak concerning a man who accused his wife, and his wife refused to perform li'an (mutual oath of condemnation). He said: She is to be given one hundred lashes and stoned.

Isa al-Khayyat said that al-Sha'bi said: Whoever is subject to li'an (mutual oath of condemnation) and refuses to swear, the prescribed punishment (hadd) is to be carried out on him.

Isa said: I heard someone other than al-Sha'bi say: "They are both compelled to perform li'an, and they are detained until they have performed it."

Al-Sha'bi said: "When the punishment is averted in li'an, the child will be attached to him."

This statement of al-Sha'bi is also reported through Jabir.

Layth said that Mujahid and Ata said: "When the punishment is averted in li'an, the child will be attached to him."
