It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that after the man from Aslam had been stoned, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and said: "Avoid these filthy deeds (sins) which Allah Almighty has forbidden. Whoever falls into any of them, let him remain concealed under the cover of Allah and repent to Allah, for whoever discloses his situation to us (by confessing the crime), we will carry out upon him the Book of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic (its prescribed punishment)." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), and they did not record it.
