Malik related to me from Yahya ibn Said from Said ibn al-Musayyab that a man from the Aslam tribe came to Abu Bakr as-Siddiq and said to him, "I have committed adultery." Abu Bakr said to him, "Have you mentioned this to anyone else?" He said, "No." Abu Bakr said to him, "Then cover it up with the veil of Allah. Allah accepts tawba from his slaves." His self was still unsettled, so he went to Umar ibn al- Khattab. He told him the same as he had said to Abu Bakr, and Umar told him the same as Abu Bakr had said to him. His self was still not settled so he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said to him, "I have committed adultery," insistently. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned away from him three times. Each time the Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned away from him until it became too much. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ questioned his family, "Does he have an illness which affects his mind, or is he mad?" They said, "Messenger of Allah, by Allah, he is well." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Unmarried or married?" They said, "Married, Messenger of Allah." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave the order and he was stoned.  

مالك:٤١-٢ – حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنْ أَسْلَمَ جَاءَ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ فَقَالَ لَهُ إِنَّ الأَخِرَ زَنَا فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ هَلْ ذَكَرْتَ هَذَا لأَحَدٍ غَيْرِي فَقَالَ لاَ

فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَتُبْ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَاسْتَتِرْ بِسِتْرِ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقْبَلُ التَّوْبَةَ عَنْ عِبَادِهِ فَلَمْ تُقْرِرْهُ نَفْسُهُ حَتَّى أَتَى عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ لأَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ لَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَلَمْ تُقْرِرْهُ نَفْسُهُ حَتَّى جَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُ إِنَّ الأَخِرَ زَنَا فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ كُلُّ ذَلِكَ يُعْرِضُ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى إِذَا أَكْثَرَ عَلَيْهِ بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَقَالَ أَيَشْتَكِي أَمْ بِهِ جِنَّةٌ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لَصَحِيحٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَبِكْرٌ أَمْ ثَيِّبٌ فَقَالُوا بَلْ ثَيِّبٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَرُجِمَ

[Machine] His father, Abu Bakr, repented to Allah and sought refuge in the protection of Allah. Allah accepts repentance from his servants. So he went to Umar and said the same thing he said to Abu Bakr. Umar asked him what Abu Bakr said to him, so he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said that the other person had committed adultery. Sa'id said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned away from him three times. All of that was rejected until he insisted on it. So he sent for his family and said, "Is he complaining? Is his father insane?" They said, "O Messenger of Allah, by Allah, he is telling the truth." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Is he your father or your stepfather?" He said, "But he is my stepfather." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered that he be stoned to death. Al-Husayn ibn Mansur al-Naysaburi informed us, saying: Ibn Numayr told us, saying: Yahya ibn Sa'id narrated to us, from Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib, that a man who had embraced Islam came to Abu Bakr al-Siddiq and mentioned something like it.

[Machine] A man who had converted to Islam came to Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq and said, "Indeed, the brother has committed adultery." Abu Bakr asked him, "Did you mention this to anyone other than me?" He replied, "No." Abu Bakr said to him, "Repent to Allah and seek the cover of Allah's concealment, for Allah accepts the repentance of His servants." However, he (the man) did not feel at ease until he approached Umar ibn Al-Khattab and said the same thing he had said to Abu Bakr. Umar responded to him as Abu Bakr did, and he still did not feel at ease until he went to the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , and said, "Indeed, the brother has committed adultery." Sa'id turned away from him repeatedly until, when he persisted, he sent for his family and said to them, "Does he have any signs of madness?" They replied, "By Allah, he is sane." The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , asked, "Is he Abu Bakr or Thayyib?" They replied, "Rather, he is Thayyib." So, the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , ordered that he be stoned to death.
