حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، وَسَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ أَتَى رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَهْوَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَنَادَاهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي زَنَيْتُ. فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ. فَلَمَّا شَهِدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَرْبَعًا قَالَ " أَبِكَ جُنُونٌ ". قَالَ لاَ. قَالَ " اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَارْجُمُوهُ " .
Abū Hurayra said: A man came to the Messenger of God while he was in the mosque, called out to him, and said, “Messenger of God, I have committed adultery.” He turned away from him. When the man had testified against himself four times, the Prophet said, “Are you insane?” He said, “No.” The Prophet said, “Take him and stone him.”
Translation notes
The source specifies that the man testified against himself four times before the Prophet asked whether he was insane and gave the final instruction. This is a translation of the historical report only.
