من كان يرى في التعريض عقوبةWho Holds That Punishment Is Due Even for Ambiguous Statements
Hadith 30265
٣٠٢٦٥ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا عبد الأعلى عن (الجلد) (١) بن أيوب عن معاوية بن قرة أن رجلًا قال لرجل: يا ابن (شامة) (٢) (الوذر) (٣)، فاستعدى عليه عثمان بن عفان، فقال: إنما عنيت كذا وكذا، فأمر به عثمان فجلد الحد (٤).
Hazrat Muawiyah bin Qurrah narrates that a man said to another: "O son of Shamatu'l-Wazr," meaning "O son of an adulterer." So that person sought help from Hazrat Uthman bin Affan against him. The man said: "Indeed, I meant such and such by it." But by the order of Hazrat Uthman, the prescribed punishment (hadd) was carried out on him.
