The Jews came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him that a man and a woman from amongst them had committed illegal sexual intercourse. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, "What do you find in the Torah (old Testament) about the legal punishment of Ar-Rajm (stoning)?" They replied, (But) we announce their crime and lash them." ʿAbdullah bin Salam said, "You are telling a lie; Torah contains the order of Rajm." They brought and opened the Torah and one of them solaced his hand on the Verse of Rajm and read the verses preceding and following it. ʿAbdullah bin Salam said to him, "Lift your hand." When he lifted his hand, the Verse of Rajm was written there. They said, "Muhammad has told the truth; the Torah has the Verse of Rajm. The Prophet ﷺ then gave the order that both of them should be stoned to death. (ʿAbdullah bin ʿUmar said, "I saw the man leaning over the woman to shelter her from the stones."  

أَنَّ الْيَهُودَ جَاءُوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرُوا لَهُ أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنْهُمْ وَامْرَأَةً زَنَيَا فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا تَجِدُونَ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ فِي شَأْنِ الرَّجْمِ فَقَالُوا نَفْضَحُهُمْ وَيُجْلَدُونَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ كَذَبْتُمْ إِنَّ فِيهَا الرَّجْمَ فَأَتَوْا بِالتَّوْرَاةِ فَنَشَرُوهَا فَوَضَعَ أَحَدُهُمْ يَدَهُ عَلَى آيَةِ الرَّجْمِ فَقَرَأَ مَا قَبْلَهَا وَمَا بَعْدَهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ ارْفَعْ يَدَكَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَإِذَا فِيهَا آيَةُ الرَّجْمِ فَقَالُوا صَدَقَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فِيهَا آيَةُ الرَّجْمِ فَأَمَرَ بِهِمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَرُجِمَا قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ فَرَأَيْتُ الرَّجُلَ يَجْنَأُ عَلَى الْمَرْأَةِ يَقِيهَا الْحِجَارَةَ  

The jews came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and mentioned to him that a man and a lady among them had committed illegal sexual intercourse. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, "What do you find in the Torah regarding the Rajam?" They replied, "We only disgrace and flog them with stripes." ʿAbdullah bin Salam said to them, 'You have told a lie the penalty of Rajam is in the Torah.' They brought the Torah and opened it. One of them put his hand over the verse of the Rajam and read what was before and after it. ʿAbdullah bin Salam said to him, "Lift up your hand." Where he lifted it there appeared the verse of the Rajam. So they said, "O Muhammad! He has said the truth, the verse of the Rajam is in it (Torah)." Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered that the two persons (guilty of illegal sexual intercourse) be stoned to death, and so they were stoned, and I saw the man bending over the woman so as to protect her from the stones.  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ الْيَهُودَ جَاءُوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرُوا لَهُ أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنْهُمْ وَامْرَأَةً زَنَيَا فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا تَجِدُونَ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ فِي شَأْنِ الرَّجْمِ فَقَالُوا نَفْضَحُهُمْ وَيُجْلَدُونَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ كَذَبْتُمْ إِنَّ فِيهَا الرَّجْمَ فَأَتَوْا بِالتَّوْرَاةِ فَنَشَرُوهَا فَوَضَعَ أَحَدُهُمْ يَدَهُ عَلَى آيَةِ الرَّجْمِ فَقَرَأَ مَا قَبْلَهَا وَمَا بَعْدَهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ ارْفَعْ يَدَكَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَإِذَا فِيهَا آيَةُ الرَّجْمِ قَالُوا صَدَقَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فِيهَا آيَةُ الرَّجْمِ فَأَمَرَ بِهِمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَرُجِمَا فَرَأَيْتُ الرَّجُلَ يَحْنِي عَلَى الْمَرْأَةِ يَقِيهَا الْحِجَارَةَ  

A Jew and Jewess were brought to the Prophet ﷺ on a charge of committing an illegal sexual intercourse. The Prophet ﷺ asked the Jews, "What do you (usually) do with them?" They said, "We blacken their faces and disgrace them." He said, "Bring here the Torah and recite it, if you are truthful." They (fetched it and) came and asked a one-eyed man to recite. He went on reciting till he reached a portion on which he put his hand. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Lift up your hand!" He lifted his hand up and behold, there appeared the verse of Ar-Rajm (stoning of the adulterers to death). Then he said, "O Muhammad! They should be stoned to death but we conceal this Divine Law among ourselves." Then the Prophet ﷺ ordered that the two sinners be stoned to death and, and they were stoned to death, and I saw the man protecting the woman from the stones. (See Hadith No. 809, Vol. 8)  

أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِرَجُلٍ وَامْرَأَةٍ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ قَدْ زَنَيَا فَقَالَ لِلْيَهُودِ مَا تَصْنَعُونَ بِهِمَا قَالُوا نُسَخِّمُ وُجُوهَهُمَا وَنُخْزِيهِمَا قَالَ {فَأْتُوا بِالتَّوْرَاةِ فَاتْلُوهَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ} فَجَاءُوا فَقَالُوا لِرَجُلٍ مِمَّنْ يَرْضَوْنَ يَا أَعْوَرُ اقْرَأْ فَقَرَأَ حَتَّى انْتَهَى عَلَى مَوْضِعٍ مِنْهَا فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ ارْفَعْ يَدَكَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَإِذَا فِيهِ آيَةُ الرَّجْمِ تَلُوحُ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنَّ عَلَيْهِمَا الرَّجْمَ وَلَكِنَّا نُكَاتِمُهُ بَيْنَنَا فَأَمَرَ بِهِمَا فَرُجِمَا فَرَأَيْتُهُ يُجَانِئُ عَلَيْهَا الْحِجَارَةَ  

some jews came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and mentioned to him that a man and a women of their number had committed fornication. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked them: What do you find in the Torah about stoning? They replied: We disgrace them and they should be flogged. ‘Abd Allah b. Salam said: You lie; it contains (instruction for) stoning. So they brought the Torah and spread it out, and one of them put his hand over the verse of stoning and read what preceded it and what followed it. ‘Abd Allah b. Salam said to him: Lift your hand. When he did so, the verse of stoning was seen to be in it. They then said: He has spoken the truth, Muhammad, the verse of stoning is in it.

[Machine] "Indeed, the Jews came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with a man and a woman from among them who had committed adultery. The Messenger said, 'What should be done with those who have committed adultery among you?' They replied, 'We do not find anything mentioned about it in our scripture.' Abdullah bin Salam said, 'You have lied regarding stoning in the Torah. Bring the Torah and recite it if you are truthful.' So they brought the Torah, and he placed his hand on the verse of stoning and asked, 'What is this?' When they saw that, they said, 'It is the verse of stoning.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered that they be stoned near the site where funeral processions are placed near the mosque.' Abdullah said, 'I saw the man shielding the woman with his body from the stones.'"

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَجَمَ يَهُودِيَّيْنِ رَجُلًا وَامْرَأَةً زَنَيَا فَأَتَتْ بِهِمَا الْيَهُودُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالُوا إِنَّ هَذَيْنِ زَنَيَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا تَجِدُونَ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ؟ » قَالُوا نَفْضَحْهُمَا وَنَجْلِدُهُمَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «كَذَبْتُمْ وَاللَّهِ إِنَّ فِيهَا آيَةَ الرَّجْمِ فَأَتَوْا بِالتَّوْرَاةِ فَاتْلُوهَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ» وَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ كَذَبْتُمْ وَاللَّهِ إِنَّ فِيهَا آيَةَ الرَّجْمِ قَالَ فَأَتَوْا بِالتَّوْرَاةِ فَنَشَرُوهَا وَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ يُقَالُ لَهُ ابْنُ صُورِيَا أَعْوَرُ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى آيَةِ الرَّجْمِ وَجَعَلَ يَقْرَأُ مَا قَبْلَهَا وَمَا بَعْدَهَا فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ ارْفَعْ يَدَكَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَوَجَدَ آيَةَ الرَّجْمِ فَقَالَتِ الْيَهُودُ نَعَمْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فِيهَا الرَّجْمُ فَأَمَرَ بِهِمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَرُجِمَا قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ «وَأَنَا فِيمَنْ رَجَمَهُمَا يَوْمَئِذٍ»  

[Machine] That the Jews came to the Prophet ﷺ with a man and a woman from among themselves who had committed adultery. The Prophet asked them, "What does your book say about this?" They replied, "We erase their faces and disgrace them." The Prophet said, "You have lied. Indeed, stoning is mentioned in it." So, they brought the Torah and a blind man who was a reader recited it. When he reached a certain part, he placed his hand on it. He was told, "Raise your hand," and he raised it, and there it was mentioned. They said, "O Muhammad, it is indeed mentioned in it, but we used to conceal it among ourselves." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then ordered for them in this way.  

أَنَّ الْيَهُودَ أَتَوَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِرَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ وَامْرَأَةٍ قَدْ زَنَيَا فَقَالَ «مَا تَجِدُونَ فِي كِتَابِكُمْ» قَالُوا نُسَخِّمُ وُجُوهَهُمَا وَيُخْزَيَانِ قَالَ «كَذَبْتُمْ إِنَّ فِيهَا الرَّجْمَ» فَائْتُوا بِالتَّوْرَاةِ فَاتْلُوهَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ فَجَاءُوا بِالتَّوْرَاةِ وَجَاءُوا بِقَارِئٍ لَهُمْ أَعْوَرَ فَقَرَأَ حَتَّى إِذَا انْتَهَى إِلَى مَوْضِعٍ مِنْهَا وَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهِ فَقِيلَ لَهُ ارْفَعْ يَدَكَ فَرَفَعَ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَلُوحُ فَقَالُوا يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنَّ فِيهَا الرَّجْمَ وَلَكِنَّا كُنَّا نَتَكَاتَمُهُ بَيْنَنَا فَأَمَرَ بِهِمَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كَذَا
