Sahih Muslim Hadith 4424 – One who confesses

English

[4424] 17 – (1692) It was narrated that Jâbir bin Samurah said: "I saw Mâ'iz bin Mâlik when he was brought to the Prophet jW,, a short, well built man who was not wearing a Ridâ' (upper garment). He testified against himself four times, saying that he had committed Zinâ, and the Messenger of Allah said: 'Perhaps you (kissed her or embraced her)?' He said: 'No, by Allah, this ignoble one has committed Zinâ.' So he stoned him, then he gave a speech in which he said: 'Every time we set out on a campaign for the sake of Allah, one of them stayed behind and bleated like a male goat, and gave a small amount of milk or food (in return for sexual favors). By Allah, if I get hold of one of them I will certainly make an example of him."
