"Abu Hurairah said: 'Carrying out a Hadd punishment in a land is better for its people than if it were to rain for forty nights." (Daif) (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4905)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِقَامَةُ حَدٍّ بِأَرْضٍ خَيْرٌ لِأَهْلِهَا مِنْ مَطَرِ أَرْبَعِينَ صَبَاحًا»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Something that happens on the earth that is better than forty mornings of rain."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «حَدٌّ يُقَامُ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ مَطَرِ أَرْبَعِينَ صَبَاحًا»  

A man of the tribe of Aslam came to the Prophet ﷺ and testified four times against himself that he had had illicit intercourse with a woman, while all the time the Prophet ﷺ was turning away from him. Then when he confessed a fifth time, he turned round and asked: Did you have intercourse with her? He replied: Yes. He asked: Have you done it so that your sexual organ penetrated hers? He replied: Yes. He asked: Have you done it like a collyrium stick when enclosed in its case and a rope in a well? He replied: Yes. He asked: Do you know what fornication is? He replied: Yes. I have done with her unlawfully what a man may lawfully do with his wife. He then asked: What do you want from what you have said? He said: I want you to purify me. So he gave orders regarding him and he was stoned to death. Then the Prophet ﷺ heard one of his companions saying to another: Look at this man whose fault was concealed by Allah but who would not leave the matter alone, so that he was stoned like a dog. He said nothing to them but walked on for a time till he came to the corpse of an ass with its legs in the air. He asked: Where are so and so? They said: Here we are, Messenger of Allah ﷺ! He said: Go down and eat some of this ass's corpse. They replied: Messenger of Allah! Who can eat any of this? He said: The dishonour you have just shown to your brother is more serious than eating some of it. By Him in Whose hand my soul is, he is now among the rivers of Paradise and plunging into them. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4428)   

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ جَاءَ الْأَسْلَمِيُّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَشَهِدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ بِالزِّنَى يَقُولُ أَتَيْتُ امْرَأَةً حَرَامًا وَفِي ذَلِكَ يَعْرِضُ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى أَقْبَلَ فِي الْخَامِسَةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَهُ «أَنِكْتَهَا؟ » فَقَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ «هَلْ غَابَ ذَلِكَ مِنْكَ فِيهَا كَمَا يَغِيبُ الْمِرْوَدُ فِي الْمُكْحُلَةِ وَالرِّشَاءُ فِي الْبِئْرِ؟ » فَقَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ «فَهَلْ تَدْرِي مَا الزِّنَا؟ » قَالَ نَعَمْ أَتَيْتُ مِنْهَا حَرَامًا مِثْلَ مَا يَأْتِي الرَّجُلَ مِنِ امْرَأَتِهِ حَلَالًا قَالَ «فَمَا تُرِيدُ بِهَذَا الْقَوْلِ؟ » قَالَ أُرِيدُ أَنْ تُطَهِّرَنِي فَأَمَرَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يُرْجَمَ فَرُجِمَ فَسَمِعَ رَجُلَيْنِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ يَقُولُ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ انْظُرُوا إِلَى هَذَا الَّذِي سَتَرَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ تَدَعْهُ نَفْسُهُ حَتَّى رُجِمَ رَجْمَ الْكَلْبِ قَالَ فَسَكَتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْهُمَا فَمَرَّ بِجِيفَةِ حِمَارٍ شَائِلٍ بِرِجْلِهِ فَقَالَ «أَيْنَ فُلَانٌ وَفُلَانٌ؟ » فَقَالَا نَحْنُ ذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا «كُلَا مِنْ جِيفَةِ هَذَا الْحِمَارِ» فَقَالَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَكَ مَنْ يَأْكُلُ مِنْ هَذَا؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا نِلْتُمَا مِنْ عِرْضِ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ آنِفًا أَشَدُّ مِنْ أَكَلِ هَذِهِ الْجِيفَةِ فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّهُ الْآنَ فِي أَنْهَارِ الْجَنَّةِ»  

[Machine] Ma'iz ibn Malik came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "Indeed, Al-Ab'ad has committed adultery." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Woe to you! How do you know what adultery is?" He then ordered that he be turned away and expelled. Then he came to him a second time and said, "O Messenger of Allah, Al-Ab'ad has committed adultery." He said, "Woe to you! How do you know what adultery is?" He was turned away and expelled. Then he came to him a third time and said, "O Messenger of Allah, Al-Ab'ad has committed adultery." He said, "Woe to you! How do you know what adultery is?" He said, "I approached a woman unlawfully, just as a man approaches his wife." So he ordered that he be dealt with, turned away, and expelled. Then he came to him a fourth time and said, "O Messenger of Allah, Al-Ab'ad has committed adultery." He said, "Woe to you! How do you know what adultery is?" He said, "Did you enter her and withdraw?" He said, "Yes." So he ordered that he be stoned. When he was pelted with stones, he found that he could not bear it, so he went to a tree, leaned against it, and was stoned to death there. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ later passed by with a group of his companions, and one man said to his companion and his father, "Indeed, this is the loser who came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ repeatedly, and he rejected him each time, until he was killed like a dog." The Prophet ﷺ remained silent about them until he passed by the carcass of a donkey with its legs raised, and he said, "Leave it, leave it." They said, "It is the carcass of a donkey, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "By the One in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, it is in a river from the rivers of Paradise enjoying itself."  

جَاءَ مَاعِزُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْأَبْعَدَ قَدْ زَنَى فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «وَيْلَكَ وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ مَا الزِّنَى» ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِهِ فَطُرِدَ وَأُخْرِجَ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الثَّانِيَةَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الْأَبْعَدَ قَدْ زَنَى فَقَالَ «وَيْلَكَ وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ مَا الزِّنَى» فَطُرِدَ وَأُخْرِجَ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الثَّالِثَةَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الْأَبْعَدَ قَدْ زَنَى قَالَ «وَيْلَكَ وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ مَا الزِّنَى» قَالَ أَتَيْتُ امْرَأَةً حَرَامًا مِثْلَ مَا يَأْتِي الرَّجُلُ مِنِ امْرَأَتِهِ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَطُرِدَ وَأُخْرِجَ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الرَّابِعَةَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الْأَبْعَدَ قَدْ زَنَى قَالَ «وَيْلَكَ وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ مَا الزِّنَى» قَالَ «أَدْخَلْتَ وَأَخْرَجْتَ؟ » قَالَ نَعَمْ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ أَنْ يُرْجَمَ فَلَمَّا وَجَدَ مَسَّ الْحِجَارَةِ تَحَمَّلَ إِلَى شَجَرَةٍ فَرُجِمَ عِنْدَهَا حَتَّى مَاتَ فَمَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مَعَهُ نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ لِصَاحِبِهِ وَأَبِيكَ إِنَّ هَذَا لَهُوَ الْخَائِبُ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مِرَارًا كُلُّ ذَلِكَ يَرُدَّهُ حَتَّى قُتِلَ كَمَا يَقْتُلُ الْكَلْبُ فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُمَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حَتَّى مَرَّ بِجِيفَةِ حِمَارٍ شَائِلَةٌ رِجْلُهَا فَقَالَ «كُلَا مِنْ هَذَا» قَالَا مِنْ جِيفَةِ حِمَارٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «فَالَّذِي نِلْتُمَا مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيكُمَا أَكْثَرُ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ إِنَّهُ لَفِي نَهَرٍ مِنْ أَنْهَارِ الْجَنَّةِ يَتَقَمَّصُ»  

[Machine] When the Prophet ﷺ stoned Ma'iz ibn Malik, he said, "I saw him engaging in sexual intercourse in the rivers of paradise."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَمَّا رَجَمَ مَاعِزَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ قَالَ «لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ يَتَخَضْخَضُ فِي أَنْهَارِ الْجَنَّةِ»  

The Quraish were anxious about the Makhzumi woman who had committed theft, They said : Who will speak to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about her ? Then they said: Who will be bold enough for it but Uasmah bin Zaid, the prophet’s ﷺ friend! So Usamah spoke to him, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said : Are you interceding regarding one of the punishments prescribed by Allah ? He then got up and gave an address, saying : What destroyed your predecessors was just that when a person of rank among them committed a theft, They left him alone , and when a weak one of them committed a theft, they inflicted the prescribed punishment on him . I swear by Allah that if Fatimah daughter of Muhammad should steal, I would have her hand cut off. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4373)  

شَأْنُ الْمَرْأَةِ الْمَخْزُومِيَّةِ الَّتِي سَرَقَتْ فَقَالُوا مَنْ يُكَلِّمُ فِيهَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالُوا وَمَنْ يَجْتَرِئُ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ حُبُّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَكَلَّمَهُ أُسَامَةُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَتَشْفَعُ فِي حَدٍّ مِنْ حُدُودِ اللَّهِ» ثُمَّ قَامَ فَاخْتَطَبَ فَقَالَ «إِنَّمَا هَلَكَ الَّذِينَ قَبْلَكُمْ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا إِذَا سَرَقَ فِيهِمُ الشَّرِيفُ تَرَكُوهُ وَإِذَا سَرَقَ فِيهِمُ الضَّعِيفُ أَقَامُوا عَلَيْهِ الْحَدَّ وَايْمُ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ سَرَقَتْ لَقَطَعْتُ يَدَهَا»  

a woman from Juhainah came to the Messenger of Allah sand said: "I have committed Zina." And she was committed Zina." And She was pregnant. He handed her over to her guardian and said: "Look after her, and when she gave birth, he brought her to him. He ordered that her garment be wrapped around her, then he offered the funeral prayer for her. 'Umar said to him: "Are you praying for her even though she committed Zina?" he said: "She has repented in a manner that, if it were to be shared among seventy of the people of Al-Madinah it would suffice them. Have you ever seen repentance better than the one who sacrificed herself for the sake of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime?" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1957)   

أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْهُ عَلَيَّ فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَلِيِّهَا فَقَالَ «أَحْسِنْ إِلَيْهَا حَتَّى تَضَعَ مَا فِي بَطْنِهَا فَإِذَا وَضَعَتْ فَأْتِنِي بِهَا» فَلَمَّا وَضَعَتْ أَتَى بِهَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَشُدَّ عَلَيْهَا ثِيَابُهَا ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِهَا فَرُجِمَتْ ثُمَّ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَتُصَلِّي عَلَيْهَا وَقَدْ زَنَتْ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَقَدْ تَابَتْ تَوْبَةً لَوْ قُسِمَتْ عَلَى سَبْعِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ لَوَسِعَتْهُمْ وَهَلْ وَجَدْتَ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ أَنْ جَادَتْ بِنَفْسِهَا لِلَّهِ جَلَّ وَعَلَا»  

[Machine] "The Prophetﷺ said when Ma'iz ibn Malik was stoned to death: 'I have seen him indulging in the rivers of Paradise'"  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَمَّا رَجَمَ مَاعِزَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ قَالَ «لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ يَتَخَضْخَضُ فِي أَنْهَارِ الْجَنَّةِ»  

[Machine] The messenger of Allah ﷺ took from us, the women, just as he took from us. He said, "Whoever wrongs any of them, their punishment is hastened for them as an expiation, and whoever is delayed from them, his matter is left to Allah. If He wills, He will have mercy on him, and if He wills, He will punish him."  

أَخَذَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَمَا أَخَذَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ مِنَّا وَقَالَ «مَنْ أَصَابَ مِنْكُمْ مِنْهُنَّ حَدًّا فَعُجِّلَتْ لَهُ عُقُوبَتُهُ فَهُوَ كَفَّارَتُهُ وَمَنْ أُخِّرَ عَنْهُ فَأَمْرُهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ إِنْ شَاءَ رَحِمَهُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ عَذَّبَهُ»  

I have heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Different evils will make their appearance in the near future. Anyone who tries to disrupt the affairs of this Umma while they are united you should strike him with the sword whoever he be. (If remonstrance does not prevail with him and he does not desist from his disruptive activities, he is to be killed.) (Using translation from Muslim 1852a)  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّهَا سَتَكُونُ هَنَاتٌ وَهَنَاتٌ فَمَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُفَرِّقَ أَمْرَ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ وَهُمْ جَمِيعٌ فَاضْرِبُوهُ بِالسَّيْفِ كَائِنًا مَنْ كَانَ»  

"The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said: 'By the One besides Whom there is no other god, it is not permissible to shed the blood of a Muslim who bears witness to La ilaha illalla (there is none worthy of worship except Allah) and that I am the Messenger of Allah, except in three cases: One who leaves Islam and splits away from the Jama'ah, a person who has been married and then commits adultery, and a life for a life.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4016)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ لَا يَحِلُّ دَمُ رَجُلٍ يَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلَّا ثَلَاثَةَ نَفَرٍ التَّارِكُ لِلْإِسْلَامِ الْمُفَارِقُ لِلْجَمَاعَةِ وَالثَّيِّبُ الزَّانِي وَالنَّفْسُ بِالنَّفْسِ» قَالَ الْأَعْمَشُ فَحَدَّثْتُ بِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ فَحَدَّثَنِي عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ مِثْلَهُ  

The blood of a Muslim man who testifies that there is no god but Allah and that I am the Messenger of Allah should not be lawfully shed but only for one of three reasons: married fornicator, soul for soul, and one who deserts his religion separating himself from the community. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4352)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا يَحِلُّ دَمُ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ يَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلَّا بِإِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ الثَّيِّبُ الزَّانِي وَالنَّفْسُ بِالنَّفْسِ وَالتَّارِكُ لِدِينِهِ الْمُفَارِقُ الْجَمَاعَةَ»  

That Sa'd b. 'Ubadah said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ : What do you think if I find with my wife a man ; should I give him some time until I bring four witnesses ?" He said: "Yes". (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4533)   

لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ وَجَدْتُ مَعَ امْرَأَتِي رَجُلًا أُمْهِلُ حَتَّى آتِيَ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «نَعَمْ»  

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said: "Nothing appeared among a people of adultery and interest except that they have made permissible upon themselves the punishment of Allah, glorious and exalted."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَا ظَهْرَ فِي قَوْمٍ الزِّنَى وَالرِّبَا إِلَّا أَحَلُوا بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ عِقَابَ اللَّهِ جَلَّا وَعَلَا»  

Do you know who is poor? They (the Companions of the Holy Prophet) said: A poor man amongst us is one who has neither dirham with him nor wealth. He (the Holy Prophet) said: The poor of my Umma would be he who would come on the Day of Resurrection with prayers and fasts and Zakat but (he would find himself bankrupt on that day as he would have exhausted his funds of virtues) since he hurled abuses upon others, brought calumny against others and unlawfully consumed the wealth of others and shed the blood of others and beat others, and his virtues would be credited to the account of one (who suffered at his hand). And if his good deeds fall short to clear the account, then his sins would be entered in (his account) and he would be thrown in the Hell-Fire. (Using translation from Muslim 2581)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَتَدْرُونَ مَنِ الْمُفْلِسُ؟ » قَالُوا الْمُفْلِسُ فِينَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَنْ لَا دِرْهَمَ لَهُ وَلَا مَتَاعَ لَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الْمُفْلِسُ مِنْ أُمَّتِي مَنْ يَأْتِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بِصَلَاتِهِ وَصِيَامِهِ وَزَكَاتِهِ وَقَدْ شَتَمَ هَذَا وَأَكَلَ مَالَ هَذَا وَسَفَكَ دَمَ هَذَا وَضَرَبَ هَذَا فَيَقْعُدُ فَيُعْطَى هَذَا مِنْ حَسَنَاتِهِ وَهَذَا مِنْ حَسَنَاتِهِ فَإِنْ فَنِيَتْ حَسَنَاتُهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُعْطِيَ مَا عَلَيْهِ أَخَذَ مِنْ خَطَايَاهُمْ فَطُرِحَتْ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ طُرِحَ فِي النَّارِ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said, "The one who commits an illegal sexual intercourse is not a believer at the time of committing illegal sexual intercourse and a thief is not a believer at the time of committing theft and a drinker of alcoholic drink is not a believer at the time of drinking. Yet, (the gate of) repentance is open thereafter." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6810)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يَسْرِقُ السَّارِقُ حِينَ يَسْرِقُ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يَزْنِي الزَّانِي حِينَ يَزْنِي وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يَشْرَبُ الْخَمْرَ حِينَ يَشْرَبُهَا وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَالتَّوْبَةُ مَعْرُوضَةٌ بَعْدُ»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said: "Three people will not be looked upon favorably by Allah on the Day of Judgment: an old man who commits adultery, a lying imam, and a boastful family."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «ثَلَاثَةٌ لَا يَنْظُرُ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ الشَّيْخُ الزَّانِي وَالْإِمَامُ الْكَذَّابُ وَالْعَائِلُ الْمَزْهُوُّ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked, "Which sin is the greatest in the sight of Allah?" He replied, "To associate partners with Allah, while He created you." He was asked, "Then what?" He said, "To commit adultery with your neighbor's wife." Then Allah revealed the confirmation of this statement: "And those who do not invoke with Allah another deity or kill the soul which Allah has forbidden [to be killed], except by right, and do not commit unlawful sexual intercourse. And whoever should do that will meet a penalty."  

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ» قَالَ ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَزْنِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ» فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَصْدِيقَهَا {وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ وَلَا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا يَزْنُونَ وَمَنْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ يَلْقَ أَثَامًا}  

I asked the Prophet, "What is the greatest sin in the Sight of Allah?" He said, "That you set up a rival unto Allah though He Alone created you." I said, "That is indeed a great sin." Then asked, "What is next?" He said, "To kill your son lest he should share your food with you." I asked, "What is next?" He said, "To commit illegal sexual intercourse with the wife of your neighbor." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4477)  

سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ» قُلْتُ إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَعَظِيمٌ ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ» قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ»  

‘Abd Allaah (bin Masud) said “I asked Apostle of Allaah ﷺ which sin is the gravest?” He replied “That you associate someone with Allaah, while He has created you”. I again asked “Which then?” He replied “That you commit adultery with the wife of your neighbor.” Allaah then revealed the following Qur’anic verse in support of the statement of the Prophet ﷺ “Those who invoke not with Allaah any other god nor slay such life as Allaah has made sacred except for just cause nor commit fornication.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2310)  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ» قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مَعَكَ» قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَزْنِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ» فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَصْدِيقَ قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ {وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ وَلَا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا يَزْنُونَ}  

[Machine] "From the Prophet (PBUH), he said: 'May Allah curse the one who sacrifices for other than Allah, and may Allah curse the one who alters the boundaries of the land, and may Allah curse the one who misguides the blind from the path, and may Allah curse the one who curses his parents, and may Allah curse the one who takes the guardianship of others without rights, and may Allah curse the one who commits the action of the people of Lot.' He repeated it three times regarding the action of the people of Lot."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَعَنِ اللَّهُ مَنْ ذَبَحَ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ وَلَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ غَيَّرَ تُخُومَ الْأَرْضِ وَلَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ كَمَهَ الْأَعْمَى عَنِ السَّبِيلِ وَلَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ سَبَّ وَالِدَيْهِ وَلَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ تَوَلَّى غَيْرَ مَوَالِيهِ وَلَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ عَمِلَ عَمَلَ قَوْمِ لُوطٍ» قَالَهَا ثَلَاثًا فِي عَمَلِ قَوْمِ لُوطٍ *  

“Allah will not look at a man who enters a man or a woman in the behind.” (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1165)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا يَنْظُرُ اللَّهُ إِلَى رَجُلٍ أَتَى رَجُلًا أَوِ امْرَأَةً فِي دُبُرِهِمَا»  

[Machine] Narrated Abu Huraira: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The eyes commit adultery, the tongue commits adultery, the hands commit adultery, the feet commit adultery, and then the private parts confirm that or deny it." (Sahih Muslim)  

حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «الْعَيْنَانِ تَزْنِيَانِ وَاللِّسَانُ يَزْنِي وَالْيَدَانِ تَزْنِيَانِ وَالرِّجْلَانِ تَزْنِيَانِ وَيُحَقِّقُ ذَلِكَ الْفَرْجُ أَوْ يُكَذِّبُهُ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Allah has decreed for the son of Adam his share of adultery which will inevitably happen to him; the adultery of the eyes is looking, the adultery of the tongue is speaking, and the soul desires and covets it, while the private parts either confirm or deny it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «كَتَبَ اللَّهُ عَلَى ابْنِ آدَمَ حَظَّهُ مِنَ الزِّنَى أَدْرَكَ ذَلِكَ لَا مَحَالَةَ فَزِنَى الْعَيْنُ النَّظَرُ وَزِنَى اللِّسَانِ النُّطْقُ وَالنَّفْسُ تَتَمَنَّى ذَلِكَ وَتَشْتَهِي وَيُصَدِّقُ ذَلِكَ الْفَرْجُ أَوْ يُكَذِّبُهُ»  

[Machine] "And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Every son of Adam has a share of fornication, and there is no doubt about it. The eye commits adultery by looking, the tongue commits adultery by speaking, the heart commits adultery by desiring, and the private parts confirm or deny it.'"  

وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «كُلُّ بَنِي آدَمَ لَهُ نَصِيبٌ مِنَ الزِّنَى أَدْرَكَهُ ذَلِكَ لَا مَحَالَةَ فَالْعَيْنُ زِنَاهَا النَّظَرُ وَاللِّسَانُ زِنَاهُ النُّطْقُ وَالْقَلْبُ زِنَاهُ التَّمَنِّي وَالْفَرْجُ يُصَدِّقُ وَيُكَذِّبُ»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said, "Every son of Adam is prone to commit adultery, and the eyes commit adultery by looking, the hands commit adultery by touching, and the soul desires and confirms it or denies it."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «كُلُّ بَنِي آدَمَ أَصَابَ مِنَ الزِّنَى لَا مَحَالَةَ فَالْعَيْنُ زِنَاؤُهَا النَّظَرُ وَالْيَدُ زِنَاؤُهَا اللَّمْسُ وَالنَّفْسُ تَهْوَى يُصَدِّقُهُ أَوْ يُكَذِّبُهُ الْفَرْجُ»  

Receive my teachings, receive my teachings. Allah has appointed a way for those women. If the parties have been married, they shall receive a hundred lashes and stoned to death. If the parties are unmarried, they shall receive a hundred lashes and banished for a year. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4415)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «خُذُوا عَنِّي خُذُوا عَنِّي قَدْ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لَهُنَّ سَبِيلًا الثَّيِّبُ بِالثَّيِّبِ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ وَالرَّجْمُ وَالْبِكْرُ بِالْبِكْرِ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ وَنَفْيُ سَنَةٍ»  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Take from me. For Allah has a way made for them : For the married person who commits adultery with a married person is one hundred lashes, then stoning. And for the virgin who commits adultery with a virgin is one hundred lashes and banishment for a year." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1434)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «خُذُوا عَنِّي قَدْ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لَهُنَّ سَبِيلًا الثَّيِّبُ بِالثَّيِّبِ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ ثُمَّ الرَّجْمُ وَالْبِكْرُ بِالْبِكْرِ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ وَيُنْفَيَانِ سَنَةً»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Learn from me, for Allah has made a way for them (virgins with virgins) and those who have been married with those who have been married. The virgin is to be flogged and exiled, while the one who had been previously married is to be flogged and stoned to death."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «خُذُوا عَنِّي فَقَدْ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لَهُنَّ سَبِيلًا الْبِكْرُ بِالْبِكْرِ وَالثَّيِّبُ بِالثَّيِّبِ الْبِكْرُ تُجْلَدُ وَتُنْفَى وَالثَّيِّبُ تُجْلَدُ وَتُرْجَمُ»  

Sūrat al-Aḥzāb was equivalent ˹in size˺ to Sūrat al-Baqarah and there was ˹an Āyah˺ in it: "al-shaykhu wa-al-shaykhah idhā zanayā fārjumūhumā al-battata (The ˹married˺ man and a woman, if they commit adultery, then absolutely stone them.)"  

كَانَتْ سُورَةُ الْأَحْزَابِ تُوَازِي سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ فَكَانَ فِيهَا {الشَّيْخُ وَالشَّيْخَةُ إِذَا زَنَيَا فَارْجُمُوهُمَا الْبَتَّةَ}  

[Machine] "Ubayy said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ : 'Tell us, how many verses are in Surah Al-Ahzab?' He replied, 'Seventy-three.' Ubayy said, 'By the one I swear by, if it were as long as Surah Al-Baqarah, we would have recited in it the verse of stoning for the old man and the old woman. But indeed, we have recited in it, 'And stoning to death is the penalty for an old man and an old woman.'"  

أُبَيٌّ قِيلَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَنَا فَنَحْنُ نَقُولُ «كَمْ تَعُدُّونَ سُورَةَ الْأَحْزَابِ مِنْ آيَةٍ؟ » قَالَ قُلْتُ ثَلَاثًا وَسَبْعِينَ قَالَ أُبَيٌّ وَالَّذِي يُحْلَفُ بِهِ إِنْ كَانَتْ لَتَعْدِلُ سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ وَلَقَدْ قَرَأْنَا فِيهَا آيَةَ الرَّجْمِ الشَّيْخُ وَالشَّيْخَةُ فَارْجُمُوهُمَا الْبَتَّةَ نَكَالًا مِنَ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ  

[Machine] He said, "Whoever disbelieves in stoning has disbelieved in the Most Merciful, and that is the statement of Allah, O People of the Scripture, there has come to you our Messenger revealing to you much of what you used to conceal of the Scripture and overlooking much. Indeed, there has come to you from Allah a light and a clear Book."  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ «مَنْ كَفَرَ بِ الرَّجْمِ فَقَدْ كَفَرَ بِالرَّحْمَنِ وَذَلِكَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ يَا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ قَدْ جَاءَكُمْ رَسُولُنَا يُبَيِّنُ لَكُمْ كَثِيرًا مِمَّا كُنْتُمْ تُخْفُونَ مِنَ الْكِتَابِ وَيَعْفُوا عَنْ كَثِيرٍ فَكَانَ مِمَّا أَخْفُوا الرَّجْمَ»  

[Machine] "That the Prophet ﷺ stoned two Jews who were married."  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَجَمَ يَهُودِيَّيْنِ قَدْ أُحْصِنَا»  

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. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then gave command regarding them, and they were stoned to death. ‘Abd Allah b. ‘Umar said: I saw the man leaning on the woman protecting her from the stones. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4446)  

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

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] He witnessed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and a man with curly, short hair and muscular body was brought to him confessing to adultery. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked him twice and then ordered to stone him, saying, "Every time we go on a military expedition for the sake of Allah, one of you falls behind with a young she-goat as his mate. Surely, I will not spare any of them, but will ensure their punishment." Perhaps he said, "Simak, unless I do not carry out the punishment on him." He said, "Simak," so I mentioned it to Sa'id bin Jubair and he said, "The Prophet ﷺ ordered to return him four times." Shu'bah said, "Al-Hakam said it is recommended to return him four times." Hammad said, "Once."  

أَنَّهُ شَهِدَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأُتِيَ بِرَجُلٍ أَشْعُرَ قَصِيرٍ ذِي عَضَلَاتٍ أَقَرَّ بِالزِّنَى فَرَدَّهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِهِ فَرُجِمَ وَقَالَ «كُلَّمَا نَفَرْنَا غَازِينَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ يَتَخَلَّفُ أَحَدُكُمْ لَهُ نَبِيبٌ كَنَبِيبِ التَّيْسِ يَمْنَحُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ الْكُثَيْبَةَ أَمَا إِنِّي لَنْ أُوتِيَ بِأَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا جَعَلْتُهُ نَكَالًا» وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ سِمَاكٌ إِلَّا نَكَّلْتُهُ قَالَ سِمَاكٌ فَذَكَرْتُهُ لِسَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ فَقَالَ رَدَّهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَقَالَ الْحَكَمُ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَرُدَّهُ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ وَقَالَ حَمَّادٌ مَرَّةً  

A bedouin came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Allah's apostle! I ask you by Allah to judge My case according to Allah's Laws." His opponent, who was more learned than he, said, "Yes, judge between us according to Allah's Laws, and allow me to speak." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Speak." He (i .e. the bedouin or the other man) said, "My son was working as a laborer for this (man) and he committed illegal sexual intercourse with his wife. The people told me that it was obligatory that my son should be stoned to death, so in lieu of that I ransomed my son by paying one hundred sheep and a slave girl. Then I asked the religious scholars about it, and they informed me that my son must be lashed one hundred lashes, and be exiled for one year, and the wife of this (man) must be stoned to death." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By Him in Whose Hands my soul is, I will judge between you according to Allah's Laws. The slave-girl and the sheep are to be returned to you, your son is to receive a hundred lashes and be exiled for one year. You, Unais, go to the wife of this (man) and if she confesses her guilt, stone her to death." Unais went to that woman next morning and she confessed. Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered that she be stoned to death. (Using translation from Bukhārī 2724)  

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ أَنَّهُمَا قَالَا إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أُنْشِدُكَ اللَّهَ إِلَّا قَضَيْتَ لِي بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ الْخَصْمُ الْآخَرُ وَهُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ نَعَمْ اقْضِ بَيْنَنَا بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَأَذَنْ لِي قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «قُلْ» قَالَ إِنَّ ابْنِي كَانَ عَسِيفًا عَلَى هَذَا فَزَنَى بِامْرَأَتِهِ وَإِنِّي أُخْبِرْتُ أَنَّ عَلَى ابْنِي الرَّجْمُ فَافْتَدَيْتُ مِنْهُ بِمِئَةِ شَاةٍ وَوَلِيدَةٍ فَسَأَلْتُ أَهْلَ الْعِلْمِ فَأَخْبَرُونِي أَنَّ عَلَى ابْنِي جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبُ عَامٍ وَأَنَّ عَلَى امْرَأَتِهِ الرَّجْمُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَأَقْضِيَنَّ بَيْنَكُمَا بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ الْوَلِيدَةُ وَالْغَنَمُ مَرْدُودٌ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى ابْنِكَ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبُ عَامٍ اغْدُ يَا أُنَيْسُ إِلَى امْرَأَةِ هَذَا فَإِنِ اعْتَرَفَتْ فَارْجُمْهَا» قَالَ فَغَدَا عَلَيْهَا فَاعْتَرَفَتْ فَأَمَرَ بِهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَرُجِمَتْ  

[Machine] Maa'iz ibn Malik came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "I have committed a grave sin." The Prophet ﷺ turned away from him multiple times. Maa'iz then asked the people, "Is there a punishment for me?" They replied, "There is nothing wrong with you except that you have come seeking a punishment that can only be lifted from you by establishing the prescribed punishment." Maa'iz then asked them to take him to the area of Gharkad, where they did not dig a hole or tie him up. Instead, they stoned him with pottery, bones, and clumps of earth. Maa'iz complained and struggled, but they persisted until he calmed down. Later, the Prophet ﷺ ascended the pulpit in the evening and praised Allah and spoke highly of Him. He then said, "What is wrong with people that when we engage in battle, one of them leaves their family behind, and they would have someone guardian-like as the nanny goat? By Allah, if I was to give preference to anyone in this matter, I would have preferred to take action against him." The Prophet ﷺ did not curse him nor ask for forgiveness for him.  

أَنَّ مَاعِزَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ فَاحِشَةً فَرَدَّهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِرَارًا قَالَ فَسَأَلَ قَوْمَهُ «أَبِهِ بَأْسٌ؟ » فَقِيلَ مَا بِهِ بَأْسٌ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ أَتَى أَمْرًا يَرَى أَنَّهُ لَا يُخْرِجُهُ مِنْهُ إِلَّا أَنْ يُقَامَ الْحَدُّ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فَأَمَرَنَا فَانْطَلَقْنَا بِهِ إِلَى بَقِيعِ الْغَرْقَدِ قَالَ فَلَمْ نَحْفُرْ لَهُ وَلَمْ نُوثِقْهُ فَرَمَيْنَاهُ بِخَزَفٍ وَعِظَامٍ وَجَنْدَلٍ قَالَ فَاشْتَكَى فَسَعَى فَاشْتَدَدْنَا خَلْفَهُ فَأَتَى الْحَرَّةَ فَانْتَصَبَ لَنَا فَرَمَيْنَاهُ بِجَلَامِيدِهَا حَتَّى سَكَنَ فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِنَ الْعَشِيِّ خَطِيبًا فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَمَا بَعْدُ مَا بَالَ أَقْوَامٍ إِذَا غَزَوْنَا تَخَلَّفَ أَحَدُهُمْ فِي عِيَالِنَا لَهُ نَبِيبٌ كَنَبِيبِ التَّيْسِ أَمَا إِنَّ عَلَيَّ أَنْ لَا أُوتِيَ بِأَحَدٍ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ إِلَّا نَكَّلْتُ بِهِ» قَالَ وَلَمْ يَسُبَّهُ وَلَمْ يَسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُ  

[Machine] "A goat from the tribe of Aslam came to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and said, 'I have committed adultery.' The Messenger of Allah turned away from it. Then it came to him from its other side and said, 'I have committed adultery.' Again, he turned away from it. It came to him four times, confessing each time. Finally, the Messenger of Allah ordered that it be stoned. When the stones touched it, it ran away due to the pain. They informed the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) about its escape when the stones hit it. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, 'Why didn't you leave it?'"  

جَاءَ مَاعِزٌ الْأَسْلَمِيُّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنِّي قَدْ زَنَيْتُ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ مِنْ شِقِّهِ الْآخَرِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي قَدْ زَنَيْتُ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَجَاءَهُ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ أَنْ يُرْجَمَ فَلَمَّا وَجَدَ مَسَّ الْحِجَارَةِ فَرَّ يَشْتَدُّ فَذَكَرُوا فِرَارَهُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِينَ مَسَّتْهُ الْحِجَارَةُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «فَهَلَّا تَرَكْتُمُوهُ»  

A man from the tribe of Bani Aslam came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Informed him that he had committed illegal sexual intercourse and bore witness four times against himself. Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered him to be stoned to death as he was a married Person. (Using translation from Bukhārī 6814)  

«أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَسْلَمَ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَحَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ زَنَى وَشَهِدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَرْبَعَ شَهَادَاتٍ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَرُجِمَ وَكَانَ قَدْ أَحْصَنَ»  

a woman from Juhainah came to the Messenger of Allah sand said: "I have committed Zina." And she was committed Zina." And She was pregnant. He handed her over to her guardian and said: "Look after her, and when she gave birth, he brought her to him. He ordered that her garment be wrapped around her, then he offered the funeral prayer for her. 'Umar said to him: "Are you praying for her even though she committed Zina?" he said: "She has repented in a manner that, if it were to be shared among seventy of the people of Al-Madinah it would suffice them. Have you ever seen repentance better than the one who sacrificed herself for the sake of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime?" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1957)   

أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْهُ عَلَيَّ قَالَ فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِوَلِيِّهَا فَقَالَ «أَحْسِنْ إِلَيْهَا حَتَّى تَضَعَ مَا فِي بَطْنِهَا فَإِذَا وَضَعَتْ فَأْتِنِي بِهَا» فَأَتَى بِهَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَشُدَّتْ عَلَيْهَا ثِيَابُهَا ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِهَا فَرُجِمَتْ ثُمَّ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَتُصَلِّي عَلَيْهَا وَقَدْ زَنَتْ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَقَدْ تَابَتْ تَوْبَةً لَوْ قُسِمَتْ عَلَى سَبْعِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ لَوَسِعَتْهُمْ وَهَلْ وَجَدْتَ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ أَنْ جَادَتْ بِنَفْسِهَا لِلَّهِ؟ »  

[Machine] A woman came to the Prophet of Allah ﷺ and said, "I have committed adultery while I was pregnant." The Prophet of Allah ﷺ instructed her to go and give birth. After she gave birth, she came back to him and he commanded her to breastfeed the child until she weaned him. She did as she was told and then came back to the Prophet ﷺ . He ordered her to give the child to a group of people. She complied and returned to the Prophet ﷺ , who asked her to whom she had given the child. She informed him that she had given him to a certain person. The Prophet ﷺ then instructed her to take the child back and give him to a different group of people from the Ansar (helpers). Once again, she came back to the Prophet ﷺ , who ordered her to tighten her clothes around herself. Later, the Prophet ﷺ ordered that she be stoned to death. Her body was then shrouded, and the funeral prayer was performed for her before she was buried. The people said, "She was stoned to death, her body was shrouded, and the funeral prayer was performed for her twice." When the news of what the people were saying reached the Prophet ﷺ , he said, "She has repented to such an extent that if her repentance were divided among seventy of the people of Madinah, it would suffice for all of them."  

جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ قَدْ أَحْدَثْتُ وَهِيَ حُبْلَى فَأَمَرَهَا نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ تَذْهَبَ حَتَّى تَضَعَ مَا فِي بَطْنِهَا فَلَمَّا وَضَعَتْ جَاءَتْ فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَذْهَبَ فَتُرْضِعَهُ حَتَّى تَفْطِمَهُ فَفَعَلَتْ ثُمَّ جَاءَتْ فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَدْفَعَ وَلَدَهَا إِلَى أُنَاسٍ فَفَعَلَتْ ثُمَّ جَاءَتْ فَسَأَلَهَا إِلَى مَنْ دَفَعَتْ فَأَخْبَرَتْ أَنَّهَا دَفَعْتُهُ إِلَى فُلَانٍ فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَأْخُذَهُ وَتَدْفَعَهُ إِلَى آلِ فُلَانٍ نَاسٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ ثُمَّ إِنَّهَا جَاءَتْ فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَشُدَّ عَلَيْهَا ثِيَابَهَا ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ أَمَرَ بِهَا فَرُجِمَتْ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ كَفَّنَهَا وَصَلَّى عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ دَفَنَهَا فَقَالَ النَّاسُ رَجَمَهَا ثُمَّ كَفَّنَهَا وَصَلَّى عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ دَفَنَهَا فَبَلَغَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَا يَقُولُ النَّاسُ فَقَالَ «لَقَدْ تَابَتْ تَوْبَةً لَوْ قُسِمَتْ تَوْبَتُهَا بَيْنَ سَبْعِينَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ لَوَسِعَتْهُمْ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to have distress when it was revealed to him. His face would become pale. One day, a revelation came to him, and when it was relieved from him, he said, "Write down this statement from me: Allah has made a way for them. The adulterer with the adulteress, and the virgin with the virgin. The adulterer is to be flogged one hundred lashes and stoned to death with stones. The virgin is to be flogged one hundred lashes and banished for one year."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ كَرْبٌ لِذَلِكَ وَتَرَبَّدَ لَهُ وَجْهُهُ فَأُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فَلَمَّا سُرِّيَ عَنْهُ قَالَ ﷺ «خُذُوا عَنِّي قَدْ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لَهُنَّ سَبِيلًا الثَّيِّبُ بِالثَّيِّبِ وَالْبِكْرُ بِالْبِكْرِ الثَّيِّبُ بِالثَّيِّبِ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ ثُمَّ رَجْمٌ بِالْحِجَارَةِ وَالْبِكْرُ بِالْبِكْرِ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ ثُمَّ نَفْيُ سَنَةٍ»  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about a slave-woman who commits fornication, and she is not married: If she commits fornication, flog her: if she commits fornication again flog her; if only for a rope of hair (dafir). Ibn Shihab: I do not know whether he (the Prophet) said it is a third or a fourth time. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4469)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْأَمَةِ إِذَا زَنَتْ وَلَمْ تُحْصَنْ فَقَالَ «إِذَا زَنَتْ فَاجْلِدُوهَا ثُمَّ إِنْ زَنَتْ فَاجْلِدُوهَا ثُمَّ إِنْ زَنَتْ فَاجْلِدُوهَا ثُمَّ بِيعُوهَا وَلَوْ بِضَفِيرٍ»  

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said: "For every son of Adam, his portion of adultery has been decreed, and the eyes commit adultery by looking, and the ears commit adultery by listening, and the hands commit adultery by touching, and the feet commit adultery by walking, and the tongue commits adultery by speaking, and the heart desires and agrees to what is sinful, and the private parts either confirm it or deny it."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «عَلَى كُلِّ نَفْسِ ابْنِ آدَمَ كَتَبَ حَظَّهُ مِنَ الزِّنَى الْعَيْنُ زِنَاؤُهَا النَّظَرُ وَالْأُذُنُ زِنَاؤُهَا السَّمْعُ وَالْيَدُ زِنَاؤُهَا الْبَطْشُ وَالرِّجْلُ زِنَاؤُهَا الْمَشْيُ وَاللِّسَانُ زِنَاؤُهُ الْكَلَامُ وَالْقَلْبُ يَهْوَى الشَّيْءَ وَيُصَدِّقُ ذَلِكَ أَوْ يُكَذِّبُهُ الْفَرْجُ»  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ, he said: "Any woman who puts on perfume and passes by a group of people so they can smell her fragrance, she is considered to be an adulteress, and every eye that looks at her is considered to be committing adultery."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «أَيُّمَا امْرَأَةٍ اسْتَعْطَرَتْ فَمَرَّتْ عَلَى قَوْمٍ لِيَجِدُوا رِيحَهَا فَهِيَ زَانِيَةٌ وَكُلُّ عَيْنٍ زَانِيَةٌ»  

[Machine] "The Prophetﷺ stoned two Jews who were married."  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَجَمَ يَهُودِيَّيْنِ قَدْ أُحْصِنَا»  

the Prophet ﷺ stoned a Jewish man and a Jewish woman. (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2557)  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَجَمَ يَهُودِيًّا وَيَهُودِيَّةً»  

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "Whoever drinks wine, whip him, and whoever repeats it, whip him. And if he does it again, kill him."  

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ شَرِبَ الْخَمْرَ فَاجْلِدُوهُ وَمَنْ عَادَ فَاجْلِدُوهُ فَإِنْ عَادَ فَاجْلِدُوهُ فَإِنْ عَادَ فَاقْتُلُوهُ»  

“If they drink (again), then whip them. If they drink (again), then whip them. If they drink (again), then whip them. If they drink (again), then kill them.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2573)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا شَرِبُوهَا فَاجْلِدُوهُمْ ثُمَّ إِذَا شَرِبُوهَا فَاجْلِدُوهُمْ ثُمَّ إِذَا شَرِبُوهَا فَاجْلِدُوهُمْ ثُمَّ إِذَا شَرِبُوهَا فَاقْتُلُوهُمْ»
