It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me to one of his black slave women; she had committed adultery. When I found her in the state of postnatal bleeding, I returned to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and informed him of the situation. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When she becomes pure from the postnatal blood, she is to be given fifty lashes. In another narration, it is stated: She is to be given this prescribed punishment. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Establish the prescribed punishments.
