Hadith 6700

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ جَاءَ مَاعِزُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ الْأَسْلَمِيُّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي قَدْ زَنَيْتُ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ جَاءَ مِنْ شِقِّهِ الْأَيْمَنِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنِّي قَدْ زَنَيْتُ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ جَاءَ مِنْ شِقِّهِ الْأَيْسَرِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنِّي قَدْ زَنَيْتُ فَقَالَ لَهُ ذَلِكَ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ فَقَالَ انْطَلِقُوا بِهِ فَارْجُمُوهُ قَالَ فَانْطَلَقُوا بِهِ فَلَمَّا مَسَّتْهُ الْحِجَارَةُ أَدْبَرَ وَاشْتَدَّ فَاسْتَقْبَلَهُ رَجُلٌ فِي يَدِهِ لَحْيُ جَمَلٍ فَضَرَبَهُ فَذُكِرَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِرَارُهُ حِينَ مَسَّتْهُ الْحِجَارَةُ قَالَ فَهَلَّا تَرَكْتُمُوهُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Ma'iz bin Malik Aslami came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! I have committed adultery. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned away from him. He came from the left side and said: O Messenger of Allah! I have committed adultery, until he confessed before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) four times. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Take him away and stone him. The people took him away to stone him. When he was struck with stones, he turned his back and ran swiftly. Meanwhile, a man came from the front, in his hand was the jawbone of a camel, and he struck him with it and killed him. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was informed that he had run away after being struck with stones, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Then why did you not leave him alone?
