Volume 8, Book 82, Number 813:
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas:
When Ma’iz bin Malik came to the Prophet (in order to confess), the Prophet said to him, “Probably
you have only kissed (the lady), or winked, or looked at her?” He said, “No, O Allah’s Apostle!” The
Prophet said, using no euphemism, “Did you have sexual intercourse with her?” The narrator added:
At that, (i.e. after his confession) the Prophet ordered that he be stoned (to death).
Volume 8, Book 82, Number 814:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
A man from among the people, came to Allah’s Apostle while Allah’s Apostle was sitting in the
mosque, and addressed him, saying, “O Allah’s Apostle! I have committed an illegal sexual inter –
course.” The Prophet turned his face away from him. The man came to that side to which the Prophet
had turned his face, and said, “O Allah’s Apostle! I have committed an illegal intercourse.” The
Prophet turned his face to the other side, and the man came to that side, and when he confessed four
times, the Prophet called him and said, “Are you mad?” He said, “No, O Allah’s Apostle!” The Prophet
said, “Are you married?” He said, “Yes, O Allah’s Apostle.” The Prophet said (to the people), “Take him
away and stone him to death.” Ibn Shihab added, “I was told by one who heard Jabir, that Jabir said, ‘I
was among those who stoned the man, and we stoned him at the Musalla (‘Id praying Place), and
when the stones troubled him, he jumped quickly and ran away, but we overtook him at Al-Harra
and stoned him to death (there).’ ”

Volume 8, Book 82, Number 815:
Narrated Abu Huraira and Zaid bin Khalid:
While we were with the Prophet , a man stood up and said (to the Prophet ), “I beseech you by Al –
lah, that you should judge us according to Allah’s Laws.” Then the man’s opponent who was wiser
than him, got up saying (to Allah’s Apostle) “Judge us according to Allah’s Law and kindly allow me
(to speak).” The Prophet said, “‘Speak.” He said, “My son was a laborer working for this man and he
committed an illegal sexual intercourse with his wife, and I gave one-hundred sheep and a slave as a
ransom for my son’s sin. Then I asked a learned man about this case and he informed me that my son
should receive one hundred lashes and be exiled for one year, and the man’s wife should be stoned to
death.” The Prophet said, “By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, I will judge you according to the Laws
of Allah. Your one-hundred sheep and the slave are to be returned to you, and your son has to re –
ceive one-hundred lashes and be exiled for one year. O Unais! Go to the wife of this man, and if she
confesses, then stone her to death.” Unais went to her and she confessed. He then stoned her to death.
Volume 8, Book 82, Number 816:
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas:
‘Umar said, “I am afraid that after a long time has passed, people may say, “We do not find the
Verses of the Rajam (stoning to death) in the Holy Book,” and consequently they may go astray by
leaving an obligation that Allah has revealed. Lo! I confirm that the penalty of Rajam be inflicted on
him who commits illegal sexual intercourse, if he is already married and the crime is proved by wit –
nesses or pregnancy or confession.” Sufyan added, “I have memorized this narration in this way.”
‘Umar added, “Surely Allah’s Apostle carried out the penalty of Rajam, and so did we after him.”
Volume 8, Book 82, Number 795:
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet cut off the hands and feet of the men belonging to the tribe of ‘Uraina and did not
cauterise (their bleeding limbs) till they died.
Volume 8, Book 82, Number 796:
Narrated Anas:
A group of people from ‘Ukl (tribe) came to the Prophet and they were living with the people of
As-Suffa, but they became ill as the climate of Medina did not suit them, so they said, “O Allah’s
Apostle! Provide us with milk.” The Prophet said, I see no other way for you than to use the camels of
Allah’s Apostle.” So they went and drank the milk and urine of the camels, (as medicine) and became
healthy and fat. Then they killed the shepherd and took the camels away. When a help-seeker came
to Allah’s Apostle, he sent some men in their pursuit, and they were captured and brought before
mid day. The Prophet ordered for some iron pieces to be made red hot, and their eyes were branded
with them and their hands and feet were cut off and were not cauterized. Then they were put at a
place called Al-Harra, and when they asked for water to drink they were not given till they died.
(Abu Qilaba said, “Those people committed theft and murder and fought against Allah and His
Apostle.”)

Volume 8, Book 82, Number 797:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
A group of people from ‘Ukl (or ‘Uraina) tribe —-but I think he said that they were from ‘Ukl
came to Medina and (they became ill, so) the Prophet ordered them to go to the herd of (Milch) she-
camels and told them to go out and drink the camels’ urine and milk (as a medicine). So they went
and drank it, and when they became healthy, they killed the shepherd and drove away the camels.
This news reached the Prophet early in the morning, so he sent (some) men in their pursuit and they
were captured and brought to the Prophet before midday. He ordered to cut off their hands and legs
and their eyes to be branded with heated iron pieces and they were thrown at Al-Harra, and when
they asked for water to drink, they were not given water. (Abu Qilaba said, “Those were the people
who committed theft and murder and reverted to disbelief after being believers (Muslims), and
fought against Allah and His Apostle”).
Volume 8, Book 82, Number 798:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, “Seven (people) will be shaded by Allah by His Shade on the Day of Resurrection
when there will be no shade except His Shade. (They will be), a just ruler, a young man who has
been brought up in the worship of Allah, a man who remembers Allah in seclusion and his eyes are
then flooded with tears, a man whose heart is attached to mosques (offers his compulsory congrega –
tional prayers in the mosque), two men who love each other for Allah’s Sake, a man who is called by
a charming lady of noble birth to commit illegal sexual intercourse with her, and he says, ‘I am
afraid of Allah,’ and (finally), a man who gives in charity so secretly that his left hand does not know
what his right hand has given.”
