- Imam Sadiq (‘a) said: “The Apostles met with Jesus (‘a) and said to him: ‘O teacher of the good! Guide us!’ He said to them: ‘Verily Moses the interlocutor of Allah (‘a) commanded you not to swear by Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, falsely, and I command you not to swear by Allah falsely or truly.’ They said: ‘O Spirit of Allah! Guide us more!’ Then he said: ‘Verily Moses the prophet of Allah (‘a) commanded you not to commit adultery, and I command you not to talk to yourselves about adultery, let alone to commit adultery. Verily one who talks to himself about adultery is like one who sets fire to a house that is decorated so the smoke damages the decor, even though the house is not burnt.’ 1
- Jesus (a) said: “Never stare at that which is not for you. If you restrain your eyes you will never commit adultery; and if you are able to avoid looking at the garments of women who are not permitted for you, then do so.” 2
- It is reported that Imam Sadiq (‘a) said: “Jesus the son of Mary (‘a) said, ‘When one of you sits in his house, he should have clothes on. Verily, Allah has allotted modesty for you, just as He has allotted your sustenance.”” 3 4
