Naeem bin Hazzal narrates from his father that Sayyiduna Ma'iz (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and confessed (to committing adultery) four times. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered him to be stoned and said to Hazzal: "If you had covered him with your garment, it would have been better for you." This hadith is also narrated mursal by Muhammad bin Munkadir and Saeed bin Musayyib.
