Narrated Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): The Jews came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and informed him that a man and a woman among them had committed adultery. He asked them, "What is the ruling in the Torah regarding stoning?" They replied, "We disgrace them and flog them." At this, Abdullah bin Salam (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "You are lying. The command of stoning is present in the Torah. Bring the Torah." Then the Jews brought the Torah and opened it, but a Jew covered the verse about stoning with his hand and began to read what was before and after it. Abdullah bin Salam (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Lift your hand." When he lifted his hand, the verse of stoning was there. Then they all said, "O Muhammad! Abdullah bin Salam has spoken the truth. Indeed, the verse of stoning is present in the Torah." So, by the order of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), both of them were stoned. Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that at the time of stoning, he saw the Jewish man leaning over the woman, shielding her from the stones.
