斷感業曰子斷，離苦果曰果斷，有餘涅槃之阿羅漢，斷子縛而未斷果縛也。涅槃經二十九曰：「解脫二種：一者子斷，二者果斷。」
To cut off the fruit, or results, of former karma. The arhatwho has a 'remnant of karma', though he has cut off the seed of misery, has not yet cut off its fruits.

一果斷 二種解脫法之一。斷除惑業，稱為子斷；斷離生死束縳之苦果，即稱為果斷。有餘涅槃之阿羅漢斷除子縛而未斷除果縛。北本涅槃經卷二十九（大一二‧五三六上）：「解脫二種：一者子斷，二者果斷。言子斷者，名斷煩惱，阿羅漢等已斷煩惱，眾結爛壞。」p4175
修行人只把煩惱斷除叫做子斷，若連果報的身體也斷即叫做果斷。
