[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, what if I found another man with my wife, should I give him respite until I bring four witnesses?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Yes."  

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ وَجَدْتُ مَعَ امْرَأَتِي رَجُلًا أُمْهِلُهُ حَتَّى آتِيَ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نَعَمْ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Yes, he said: No, by the One who sent you with the truth, if I were to hasten it with a sword." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Listen to what your master says. Indeed, he is jealous, and I am more jealous than him. And Allah is more jealous than me."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نَعَمْ قَالَ كَلَّا وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ إِنْ كُنْتُ لَأُعْجِلُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اسْمَعُوا مَا يَقُولُ سَيِّدُكُمْ؟ إِنَّهُ غَيُورٌ وَأَنَا أَغْيَرُ مِنْهُ وَاللهُ أَغْيَرُ مِنِّي  

[Machine] That Muawiyah wrote to Abu Musa asking about a man who entered his house and found another man with his wife so he killed either the man or the woman? So Abu Musa asked Ali about it, and Ali said to him, "What reminded you of this? This is not related to us. I have decided concerning you." He said that Muawiyah wrote to him asking if he asked him about it. He said, "I am Abu Hassan. If four witnesses come to us, otherwise he is punished with his own statement." Yahya ibn Sa'id said, "He is killed." The sheikh, may Allah have mercy on him, said that this is from the hadith of Malik ibn Anas, from Yahya ibn Sa'id, who said that Al-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, witnessed against a man with fornication and the fourth did not confirm, so he was whipped the three times.  

أَنَّ مُعَاوِيَةَ كَتَبَ إِلَى أَبِي مُوسَى سَلْ عَلِيًّا ؓ عَنْ رَجُلٍ دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ فَإِذَا مَعَ امْرَأَتِهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَتَلَهَا أَوْ قَتَلَهُ؟ فَسَأَلَهُ أَبُو مُوسَى فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ ؓ مَا ذَكَّرَكَ هَذَا؟ إِنَّ هَذَا لَشَيْءٌ مَا هُوَ بِأَرْضِنَا؟ عَزَمْتُ عَلَيْكَ قَالَ كَتَبَ إِلِيَّ مُعَاوِيَةُ فِي أَنْ أَسْأَلَكَ عَنْهَا قَالَ أَنَا أَبُو حَسَنٍ إِنْ جَاءَنَا بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ وَإِلَّا دَفَعَ بِرُمَّتِهِ قَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ يُقْتَلُ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ وَقَدْ مَضَى مِنْ حَدِيثِ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ وَشَهِدَ ثَلَاثَةٌ عَلَى رَجُلٍ عِنْدَ عُمَرَ ؓ بِالزِّنَا وَلَمْ يُثْبِتِ الرَّابِعُ فَجَلَدَ الثَّلَاثَةَ  

[Machine] When Abu Bakrah and his companions testified against Al-Mughirah, Ziyad came and Umar said to him, "If he testifies, by Allah's will, it should only be with the truth." Ziyad replied, "I have seen flourishing and an evil council." Umar asked him, "Did you see al-Murd entering the Makhlah (a place where animal hides are dyed)?" He answered, "No." So Umar ordered for them to be flogged.  

لَمَّا شَهِدَ أَبُو بَكْرَةَ وَصَاحِبَاهُ عَلَى الْمُغِيرَةِ جَاءَ زِيَادٌ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ رَجُلٌ إِنْ يَشْهَدْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ ابْتِهَارًا وَمَجْلِسًا سَيِّئًا فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ ؓ هَلْ رَأَيْتَ الْمِرْوَدَ دَخَلَ الْمُكْحُلَةَ؟ قَالَ لَا فَأَمَرَ بِهِمْ فَجُلِدُوا
