[Machine] A man became sick until his skin became wrinkled. A maid, who used to serve him, entered upon him and he was attracted to her. He became anxious and confided in his people, saying, "Ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for me, for I have committed an unlawful act with a woman. Let him establish the punishment on me and purify me." So they conveyed this to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. They said, "If this matter was to be brought to you, his bones would disintegrate and if he was to be flogged, he would die." He said, "Bring me a hundred branches made from Shamar wood and strike him once."
مَرِضَ رَجُلٌ حَتَّى صَارَ جِلْدًا فَدَخَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ جَارِيَةٌ تَعُودُهُ فَوَقَعَ عَلَيْهَا فَضَاقَ صَدْرًا بِخَطِيئَتِهِ فَجَاءَ الْقَوْمُ يَعُودُونَهُ فَقَالَ سَلُوا لِي رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ إِنِّي قَدْ وَقَعْتُ عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ حَرَامًا فَلْيُقِمْ عَلَيَّ الْحَدَّ ولِيُطَهِّرْنِي فَذَكَرُوا ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالُوا لَوْ حُمِلَ إِلَيْكَ لَتَفَسَّخَتْ عِظَامُهُ وَلَوْ جُلِدَ لَمَاتَ قَالَ «فَخُذُوا مِائَةَ شِمْرَاخٍ فَاضْرِبُوهُ ضَرْبَةً وَاحِدَةً»
