بَابُ مَا كَانَ مِنْ الْجَابِ الْحَدْ عَلَى مَنْ قَدَّفَ زَوْجَتَهُ إِنْ لَمْ يَأْتِ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ قَبْلَ نُزُولِ آيَاتِ اللعان

Hadith Number: 7194
عن ابي هريرة رضي الله عنه ان سعد بن عبادة رضي الله عنه قال يا رسول الله إن وجدت مع امراتي رجلا امهله حتى آتي باربعة شهداء قال نعم
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Sa’d bin Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! If I see a strange man with my wife, should I give him respite until I can present four witnesses? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Yes.

عن ابن عباس رضي الله عنهما قال الله اعدل من ذلك ان يضربني ثمانين ضربة وقد علم اني قد رايت حتى استيقنت وسمعت حتى استيقنت لا والله لا يضربني ابدا قال فنزلت آية الملاعنة
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that (when Hilal bin Umayyah (may Allah be pleased with him) accused his wife of adultery, someone said to him: "The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) will certainly have you flogged with the prescribed lashes for slander.") He replied: "Allah is more just than to let me be flogged with those lashes, because Allah knows that I have seen it with my own eyes and I am certain, and I have heard such things that I have become convinced that (evil has occurred with my wife). By Allah! He will never let me be flogged." Then the verse of Li'an (mutual cursing) was revealed.

عن عبد الله رضي الله عنه قال كنا جلوسا عشية الجمعة في المسجد قال فقال رجل من الانصار احدنا راى مع امراته رجلا فقتله قتلتموه وإن تكلم جلدتموه وإن سكت سكت على غيظ والله لئن اصبحت صالحا لاسالن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم قال فساله فقال يا رسول الله إن احدنا راى مع امراته رجلا فقتله قتلتموه وإن تكلم جلدتموه وإن سكت سكت على غيظ اللهم احكم قال فانزلت آية اللعان قال فكان ذاك الرجل اول من ابتلي به
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: We were sitting in the Prophet’s Mosque on a Friday evening when a man from among the Ansar said: Tell me, if one of us sees a man with his wife, now if he kills him, you will kill him; if he speaks about it, you will impose the punishment for slander upon him; and if he remains silent, then great anger will be suppressed within his silence. By Allah! If I remain safe until morning, I will surely ask the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this matter. So he went to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked: O Messenger of Allah! If one of us sees a man with his wife, now if he kills him, you will kill him; if he speaks about it, you will impose the punishment for slander upon him; and if he remains silent, then anger will be suppressed beneath his silence. O my Allah! Decide this matter. Then the verses of Li’an were revealed. Sayyiduna Abdullah says: The first person to be tested by Li’an was that very man who had asked this question; it began with him.
