٤٨۔ كِتَابُ الْمَنَاقِبِ
[Machine] "When the verse of (24:4) was revealed, Sa'd bin 'Ubada said, 'O Messenger of Allah, if I see someone committing adultery with my own eyes, I cannot gather four witnesses until the last person has finished his need.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Listen to what your leader says.'"
لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ {وَالَّذِينَ يَرْمُونَ الْمُحْصَنَاتِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَأْتُوا بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ} [النور 4] قَالَ سَعْدُ بْنُ عِبَادَةَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَإِنْ أَنَا رَأَيْتُ لَكَاعِ قَدْ تَفَخَّذَهَا رَجُلٌ لَا أَجْمَعُ الْأَرْبَعَةَ حَتَّى يَقْضِيَ الْآخَرُ حَاجَتَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «اسْمَعُوا مَا يَقُولُ سَيِّدُكُمْ»
