[Machine] He said that a man from the Muslims came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was in the mosque and called out to him, saying, "O Messenger of Allah, I have committed adultery." So he turned away from him. Then he turned his face towards him and said to him, "O Messenger of Allah, I have committed adultery." He turned away from him again until he repeated that four times. When he bore witness against himself four times, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called him and said to him, "Are you insane?" He said, "No." He said, "Have you retained your sanity?" He said, "Yes." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Go and stone him." Ibn Shihab said, "Those who heard Jabir bin Abdullah inform me that I was among those who stoned him in the mosque. When the stones began to hurt him, he fled and we caught up with him and stoned him."
أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَتَى رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَنَادَاهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي زَنَيْتُ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَتَنَحَّى تِلْقَاءَ وَجْهِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي زَنَيْتُ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ حَتَّى ثَنَّى ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ فَلَمَّا شَهِدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ دَعَاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَبِكَ جُنُونٌ؟ قَالَ لَا قَالَ فَهَلْ أَحْصَنْتَ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اذْهَبُوا فَارْجُمُوهُ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ فَأَخْبَرَنِي مَنْ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَقُولُ كُنْتُ فِيمَنْ رَجَمَهُ فَرَجَمْنَاهُ فِي الْمُصَلَّى فَلَمَّا أَذْلَقَتْهُ الْحِجَارَةُ هَرَبَ فَأَدْرَكْنَاهُ بِالْحَرَّةِ فَرَجَمْنَاهُ
