حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ثَنَا ابْنُ أَخِي ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَمِّهِ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ أَنَّ شِبْلَ بْنَ حَامِدٍ الْمُزَنِيَّ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ مَالِكٍ الْأَوْسِيَّ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لِلْوَلِيدَةِ: ((إِنْ زَنَتْ فَاجْلِدُوهَا، ثُمَّ إِنْ زَنَتْ فَاجْلِدُوهَا، ثُمَّ إِنْ زَنَتْ فَاجْلِدُوهَا، ثُمَّ إِنْ زَنَتْ فَبِيعُوهَا وَلَوْ بِضَفِيرٍ (وَالضَّفِيرُ الْحَبْلُ) فِي الثَّالِثَةِ أَوْ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Malik Awsi (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said regarding a slave-girl: If she commits adultery, then flog her; if she commits adultery again, then flog her again; if she commits adultery a third time, then enforce the prescribed punishment on her; if she commits adultery even after that, then sell her, even if you have to sell her for a rope. The mention of selling was for the third or fourth time.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The meaning of not refraining from evil despite having the prescribed punishment (hadd) applied three or four times is that evil has become predominant in the slave-girl, and she has become distant from goodness and virtue. Therefore, the command has been given to sell her.
