Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Mughira narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) received news that Hazrat Sa’d bin Ubadah said: “If I find a man with my wife, I will strike him with the edge of the sword.” Upon this, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Are you amazed at Sa’d’s sense of honor? By Allah! I am more possessive than Sa’d, and Allah, the Lord of Honor, is more possessive than I am. And it is for this reason that Allah has forbidden indecent acts, whether they are open or hidden.”
