Hazrat Abu Khulda narrates that Saeed bin Artaban, who is the uncle of Hazrat Ibn Aun, met me. He said, "Do you intend to visit Hazrat Abu Al-Aliyah?" I replied, "Yes." He said, "Then say to him: Hasan Basri, Hazrat Ibn Sirin, and Hazrat Thabit Banani—all these respected persons—testified against a man and a woman that both committed adultery, and the woman confessed while the man denied it. What is the ruling?" The narrator says, "So I asked Hazrat Abu Al-Aliyah about this matter." He replied, "You have met one of your self-indulgent people. Hasan Basri will be flogged eighty lashes, and Muhammad will be flogged eighty lashes, and Thabit Banani will be flogged eighty lashes, and the woman, due to her confession, will be stoned to death, and the man will go free and no punishment will be applied to him."
