Volume 3, Book 49, Number 860:
Narrated Abu Huraira and Zaid bin Khalid Al-Juhani:
A bedouin came and said, “O Allah’s Apostle! Judge between us according to Allah’s Laws.” His op –
ponent got up and said, “He is right. Judge between us according to Allah’s Laws.” The bedouin said,
“My son was a laborer working for this man, and he committed illegal sexual intercourse with his
wife. The people told me that my son should be stoned to death; so, in lieu of that, I paid a ransom of
one hundred sheep and a slave girl to save my son. Then I asked the learned scholars who said, “Your
son has to be lashed one-hundred lashes and has to be exiled for one year.” The Prophet said, “No
doubt I will judge between you according to Allah’s Laws. The slave-girl and the sheep are to go back
to you, and your son will get a hundred lashes and one year exile.” He then addressed somebody, “O
Unais! go to the wife of this (man) and stone her to death” So, Unais went and stoned her to death.
