Hazrat Isa bin Asim narrates that some people set out on a journey and passed by a man, so they stayed with him. During this time, that man gave his wife three divorces. Then when they returned, they found him with that woman. So they presented him before Hazrat Shurayh and said: Indeed, this man had given his wife three divorces and we found him with that woman, while the man was denying it. Upon this, he (Hazrat Shurayh) said: Do you testify that this man is an adulterer? So they repeated their statement as they had said before. Then he asked: Do you testify that this man is an adulterer? They again repeated their statement. So he separated them (the man and the woman) but did not impose the hadd (punishment) on either of them and accepted their testimony.
