Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, Sayyiduna Zaid bin Khalid, and Sayyiduna Shibl (may Allah be pleased with them) narrate that we were with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) when a man came and said: I beseech you by Allah to judge between us according to the Book of Allah. His opponent, who was more intelligent, also stood up and said: Yes, judge between us according to the Book of Allah and allow me to speak. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Speak. He said: My son was working for them, and he committed adultery with their wife. I was informed that my son’s punishment is stoning, so I gave one hundred sheep and a slave as compensation. After that, I asked the scholars, and they told me that my son’s punishment is one hundred lashes and one year of exile, and the woman’s punishment is stoning. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I will judge between you according to the Book of Allah. The one hundred sheep and the slave will be returned, and your son’s punishment is one hundred lashes and one year of exile. Anis! Go to this man’s wife, and if she confesses, then stone her.
