Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zubayr al-Makki that a case was brought to Umar about a marriage which had only been witnessed by one man and one woman . He said, "This is a secret marriage and I do not permit it. Had I been the first to come upon it, I would have ordered them to be stoned."
أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ أُتِيَ بِنِكَاحٍ لَمْ يَشْهَدْ عَلَيْهِ إِلاَّ رَجُلٌ وَامْرَأَةٌ فَقَالَ هَذَا نِكَاحُ السِّرِّ وَلاَ أُجِيزُهُ وَلَوْ كُنْتُ تَقَدَّمْتُ فِيهِ لَرَجَمْتُ
[Machine] Umar performed a marriage that was witnessed by only a man and a woman. He said, "This is a secret marriage and I do not approve of it. If I had known about it earlier, I would have stoned them."
أُتِيَ عُمَرُ ؓ بِنِكَاحٍ لَمْ يَشْهَدْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا رَجُلٌ وَامْرَأَةٌ فَقَالَ هَذَا نِكَاحُ السِّرِّ وَلَا أُجِيزُهُ وَلَوْ كُنْتُ تَقَدَّمْتُ فِيهِ لَرَجَمْتُ
[Machine] This pleasure, even if I advance in it, I would still reject it.
هَذِهِ الْمُتْعَةُ وَلَوْ كُنْتُ تَقَدَّمْتُ فِيهِ لَرَجَمْتُهُ
"عَنْ أَبى الزبيرِ المَكِّى، قال: أُتِى عُمرُ بنكاحٍ لم يشهَدْ عليه إلا رجلٌ وامرأةٌ، فقال: هذا نكاحُ السِّر ولَا أُجيزُه، ولو كُنْتُ تَقَدَّمْتُ فِيهِ لَرَجَمْتُ".
