Sahih Muslim Hadith 4461 – The Hadd

English

[4461] 41 – (1709) It was narrated that 'Ubâdah bin As- Sâmit said: "We were with the Messenger of Allah in a gathering, and he said: 'Swear allegiance to me, pledging that you will not associate anything with Allah, you will not commit Zinâ, you will not steal and you will not kill any soul whom Allah has forbidden killing except in cases dictated by (Islamic) law. Whoever among you fulfills that, his reward will be with Allah, and whoever does any of those things and is punished for it, that will be an expiation for him. Whoever does any of those things and Allah conceals him, his case will rest with Allah: if He wills He will forgive him and if He wills He will punish him."
