41. Stoning
٤١۔ كِتَابُ الرَّجْمِ
Ibn Abbas said: A lunatic woman passed by Ali ibn AbuTalib. He then mentioned the rest of the tradition to the same effect as Uthman mentioned. This version has: Do you not remember that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has said: There are three whose actions are not recorded: a lunatic whose mind is deranged till he is restored to consciousness, a sleeper till he awakes, and a boy till he reaches puberty? (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4401)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ «رُفِعَ الْقَلَمُ عَنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ عَنِ الْمَجْنُونِ الْمَغْلُوبِ عَلَى عَقْلِهِ وَعَنِ النَّائِمِ حَتَّى يَسْتَيْقِظَ وَعَنِ الصَّبِيِّ حَتَّى يَحْتَلِمَ» قَالَ صَدَقْتَ قَالَ فَخَلَّى عَنْهَا
[Machine] Umar brought a woman who had committed adultery, and with her was her child. Ali passed by and let her go, saying, "This is a trial from the children of so-and-so." Then he said, "By Allah, I knew that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'The pen has been lifted from three: from the sleeper until he wakes up, from the one who is insane until he comes to his senses, and from the child until he reaches puberty.'"
أُتِيَ عُمَرُ بِامْرَأَةٍ قَدْ زَنَتْ وَمَعَهَا وَلَدُهَا فَمَرَّ عَلِيٌّ فَخَلَّى سَبِيلَهَا وَقَالَ هَذِهِ مُبْتَلَاةُ بَنِي فُلَانٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَاللهِ لَقَدْ عَلُمْتُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «رُفِعَ الْقَلَمُ عَنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ عَنِ النَّائِمِ حَتَّى يَسْتَيْقِظَ وَعَنِ الْمُبْتَلَى حَتَّى يَعْقِلَ وَعَنِ الصَّغِيرِ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ يُكْبُرَ»
عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَيُّوبَ أَيْضًا فَلَيْسَ بِذَاكَ
ʿThe Pen has been lifted from three; from the sleeper until he wakes up, from the crazy - or insane- one until he comes back to his senses, and from the minor until he grows up.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 956)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ رُفِعَ الْقَلَمُ عَنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ عَنِ النَّائِمِ حَتَّى يَسْتَيْقِظَ وَالْمَعْتُوهِ أَوْ قَالَ الْمَجْنُونِ حَتَّى يَعْقِلَ وَالصَّغِيرِ حَتَّى يَشُبَّ
[Machine] We have Abu Abdurrahman, none of which is accurate, and the stopped version is more correct.
لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مَا فِيهِ شَيْءٌ صَحِيحٌ وَالْمَوْقُوفُ أَصَحُّ هَذَا أَوْلَى بِالصَّوَابِ
