Amir Al-Momineen -asws said to him: ‘And what did he say to you?’ He said, ‘He claims that he bed-wetted by (having) my mother (in dream)’. So, Amir Al-Momineen -asws said to him: ‘With regards to the justice, if I -asws so desire to, for you, I -asws would make him stand in the (heat of) the sun, and whip his shadow, for the dream is similar to the shadow .
But, we -asws shall be whipping him until he does not repeat hurting the Muslims’. وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى ضَرَبَهُ ضَرْباً وَجِيعاً And in another report, Imam Ali -asws whipped him (the vulgar man) with a painful whipping (for hurting his brother’s feelings) .
