4511 - رَوَى اَلْعَلاَءُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلْحُرِّ أَ تُحْصِنُهُ اَلْمَمْلُوكَةُ قَالَ "لاَ تُحْصِنُ اَلْحُرَّ اَلْمَمْلُوكَةُ وَ لاَ يُحْصِنُ اَلْمَمْلُوكُ اَلْحُرَّةَ وَ اَلنَّصْرَانِيُّ يُحْصِنُ اَلْيَهُودِيَّةَ وَ اَلْيَهُودِيُّ يُحْصِنُ اَلنَّصْرَانِيَّةَ ".

Hadith.4511 - Al-Alaa narrated from Muhammad ibn Muslim, from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), who said: I asked Imam (as) whether a bondwoman provides legal protection (iḥṣan) for a free man. Imam (as) said: "A bondwoman does not provide legal protection for a free man, nor does a slave man provide legal protection for a free woman. However, a Christian man provides legal protection for a Jewish woman, and a Jewish man provides legal protection for a Christian woman."
