Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah: A man committed fornication with a woman. So the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ordered regarding him and the prescribed punishment of flogging was inflicted on him. He was then informed that he was married. So he commanded regarding him and he was stoned to death. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted by Muhammad bin Bakr al-Barsani from Ibn Juraij as a statement of Jabir, and Abu Asim has transmitted it from Ibn Juraid similar to that of Ibn Wahb. He did not mention the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . But he said: A man committed fornication, but did not know that he was married ; so he was flogged. It was then known that he was married, so he was stoned to death.
