حَدِيثُ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ السُّوَائِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
Hadith of Jabir bin Samurah al-Suwa'i, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 7446 — I saw Sayyiduna Ma'iz bin Malik when he was
وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ : رَأَيْتُ مَاعِزَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ حِينَ جِيءَ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - حَاسِرًا ، مَا عَلَيْهِ رِدَاءٌ ، فَشَهِدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ أَنَّهُ قَدْ زَنَى ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : « فَلَعَلَّكَ ؟ » قَالَ : لَا ، وَاللهِ إِنَّهُ قَدْ زَنَى الْأَخِرُ قَالَ : فَرَجَمَهُ ، ثُمَّ خَطَبَ ، فَقَالَ : أَلَا كُلَّمَا نَفَرُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ خَلَفَ أَحَدُهُمْ لَهُ نَبِيبٌ كَنَبِيبِ التَّيْسِ ، يَمْنَحُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ الْكُثْبَةَ ، أَمَا إِنْ أَمْكَنَنِي اللهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - مِنْ أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ لَأُنَكِّلَنَّهُ عَنْهُنَّ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that "I saw Sayyiduna Ma'iz bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) when he was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). At that time he was bareheaded and had no cloak on his body. Then he testified against himself four times that he had indeed committed adultery. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: 'Perhaps you only kissed (her)?' He said: 'No, by Allah! This wretched one has indeed committed adultery.' The narrator said: Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) had him stoned. After that he (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon and said: 'Beware! Whenever some people go forth in the way of Allah, one of those who stay behind starts bleating like a billy goat (making lustful sounds), and lures one of them (the women left behind) by giving her a little milk. Listen! If Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, gives me power over any one of them, I will make him an example to others in the matter of those women.'"
