ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الدَّالِّ عَلَى الْمُقِرِّ بِالزِّنَى عَلَى نَفْسِهِ إِذَا رَجَعَ بَعْدَ إِقْرَارِهِ يَجِبُ أَنْ يُتْرَكَ وَلَا يُرْجَمُ
[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»
