55. Prescribed Punishments
٥٥۔ كِتَابُ الْحُدُودِ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ asked, "Are you a married woman?" She replied, "Yes." He said, "Then we will not stone you until you give birth to what is in your womb." A man from the Ansar took responsibility for her until she gave birth. He then went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him, "The woman from the tribe of Ghamid has given birth." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Stone her, but spare her child who is still breastfeeding." A man from the Ansar stood up and said, "I will breastfeed him, O Messenger of Allah." So they stoned her.
قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَثَيِّبٌ أَنْتِ؟ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قَالَ إِذًا لَا نَرْجُمُكِ حَتَّى تَضَعِي مَا فِي بَطْنِكِ قَالَ فَكَفَلَهَا رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ حَتَّى وَضَعَتْ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ قَدْ وَضَعَتِ الْغَامِدِيَّةُ فَقَالَ نَرْجُمُهَا وَنَدَعُ وَلَدَهَا صَغِيرَ السِّنِّ لَيْسَ لَهُ مَنْ يُرْضِعُهُ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ إِلِيَّ رَضَاعُهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَرَجَمَهَا
[Machine] I was sitting with the Prophet ﷺ when a woman from the tribe of Ghamid came to him and said, "I have committed adultery and I want to be purified." He mentioned the Hadd (prescribed punishment) concerning her until he said, "By Allah, I am pregnant." The Prophet ﷺ said to her, "Go back until you give birth." When she gave birth and came with the child (wrapped in a cloth), she said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have given birth." He said, "Go and breastfeed him." When she had breastfed him, she came to him with the child (holding a piece of bread) and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have breastfed him." The Prophet ﷺ ordered that the child be given to a Muslim man, then he commanded that a pit be dug for her and she was placed in it up to her chest. Then he ordered the people to stone her, and he mentioned the Hadd.
كُنْتُ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَجَاءَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ غَامِدٍ فَقَالَتْ إِنِّي قَدْ زَنَيْتُ وَإِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ تُطَهِّرَنِي فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى أَنْ قَالَتْ فَوَاللهِ إِنِّي لَحُبْلَى فَقَالَ لَهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ارْجِعِي حَتَّى تَلِدِي فَلَمَّا وَلَدَتْ جَاءَتْ بِالصَّبِيِّ فِي خِرْقَةٍ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي قَدْ وَلَدْتُ فَقَالَ اذْهَبِي حَتَّى تَفْطِمِيهِ فَلَمَّا فَطَمَتْهُ جَاءَتْهُ بِالصَّبِيِّ فِي يَدِهِ كِسْرَةٌ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَذَا قَدْ فَطَمْتُهُ فَأَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِالصَّبِيِّ فَدُفِعَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِهَا فَحُفِرَتْ لَهَا حَفِيرَةٌ فَجُعِلَتْ فِيهَا إِلَى صَدْرِهَا ثُمَّ أَمَرَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يَرْجُمُوهَا وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ
