Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمُهَاجِرِ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً، أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَاعْتَرَفَتْ بِالزِّنَا فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَشُكَّتْ عَلَيْهَا ثِيَابُهَا ثُمَّ رَجَمَهَا ثُمَّ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا ‏.‏

Al-'Abbas ibn 'Uthman al-Dimashqi narrated to us; al-Walid ibn Muslim narrated to us; Abu 'Amr narrated to us; Yahya ibn Abi Kathir narrated to me, from Abu Qilabah, from Abu al-Muhajir, from 'Imran ibn al-Husayn, that a woman came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and confessed to zina. He ordered that her garments be gathered and secured around her; then he stoned her, then he performed the funeral prayer over her.

  • The English witness explains that the garments were secured to prevent exposure; this reason is not stated in the Arabic.
