Abdullah bin 'Umar reported that a Jew and a Jewess were brought to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) who had committed adultery. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to the Jews and said: What do you find in Torah for one who commits adultery? They said: We darken their faces and make them ride on the donkey with their faces turned to the opposite direction (and their backs touching each other), and then they are taken round (the city). He said: Bring Torah if you are truthful. They brought it and recited it until when they came to the verse pertaining to stoning, the person who was reading placed his hand on the verse pertaining to stoning, and read (only that which was) between his hands and what was subsequent to that.'Abdullah bin Salim who was at that time with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Command him (the reciter) to lift his hand. He lifted it and there was, underneath that, the verse pertaining to stoning. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) pronounced judgment about both of them and they were stoned.'Abdullah bin 'Umar said: I was one of those who stoned them, and I saw him (the Jew) protecting her (the Jewess) with his body.

Ibn 'Umar (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) stoned to death the Jews, both male and female, who had committed adultery. The Jews brought them to Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him). The rest of the hadith is the same.

Al-Bara' bin 'Azib (RA) reported: There happened to pass by Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) a Jew blackened and lashed. Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) called them (the Jews) and said: Is this the punishment that you find in your Book (Torah) as a prescribed punishment for adultery? They said: Yes. He (the Holy Prophet) called one of the scholars amongst them and said: I ask you in the name of Allah Who sent down the Torah on Moses (ؑ) if that is the prescribed punishment for adultery that you find in your Book. He said: No. Had you not asked me in the name of Allah, I would not have given you this information. We find stoning to death (as punishment prescribed in the Torah). But this (crime) became quite common amongst our aristocratic class. So when we caught hold of any rich person (indulging in this offence) we spared him, but when we caught hold of a helpless person we imposed the prescribed punishment upon him. We then said: Let us agree (on a punishment) which we can inflict both upon the rich and the poor. So We decided to blacken the face with coal and flog as a substitute punishment for stoning. Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: O Allah, I am the first to revive Thy command when they had made it dead. He then commanded and he (the offender) was stoned to death. Allah, the Majestic and Glorious, sent down (this verse): "O Messenger, (the behaviour of) those who vie with one another in denying the truth should not grieve you..." up to "is vouchsafed unto you, accept it" (v. 41) 2176 It was said (by the Jews): Go to Muhammad; it he commands you to blacken the face and award flogging (as punishment for adultery), then accept it, but it he gives verdict for stoning, then avoid it. It was (then) that Allah, the Majestic and Great, sent down (these verses): "And they who do not judge in accordance with what Allah has revealed are, indeed, deniers of the truth" (v. 44); "And they who do not judge in accordance with what Allah has revealed-they indeed are the wrongdoers" (v. 45);" And they who do not judge in accordance with what God has revealed-they are the iniquitous (v. 47). (All these verses) were revealed in connection with the non-believers.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of A'mash up to the words: "Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) pronounced judgment and he was stoned (to death)" And he mentioned nothing subsequent to that pertaining to the revelation of verses.

Jabir bin 'Abdullah reported that Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) stoned (to death) a person from Banu Aslam, and a Jew and his wife.

Abu Hurairah (RA) reported that he heard Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: When the slave-woman of any of you commits adultery and this (offence of hers) becomes clear, she should be flogged (as the presribed) punishment, but hurl no reproach at her. If she commits adultery again, she should (again be punished) by flogging, but hurl no reproach upon her. If she commits fornication for the third time and it becomes clear, then he should sell her, even if only for a rope of hair.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah (RA) and Zaid bin Khalid al-Juhani, but in this no mention is made of the words of Ibn Shihab that dafir means rope.
