Hadith.4987 - Al-Ala reported from Muhammad ibn Muslim who said that Abu Jafar (as) said: "When a fornicator commits fornication, the spirit of faith departs from him. If he seeks forgiveness, it returns to him." Imam (as) also said that the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) said: "A fornicator does not commit fornication while he is a believer, a drinker does not drink while he is a believer, and a thief does not steal while he is a believer." Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) further said: "My father (as) used to say: 'When a fornicator commits fornication, the spirit of faith leaves him.'" I asked: "Does any part of faith remain in him, or does it completely leave him?" Imam (as) replied: "No, rather a part of it remains. But when he ceases the act, the spirit of faith returns to him."
