Hadith 1701

أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ: أَنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ سُئِلَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ وَجَدَ مَعَ امْرَأَتِهِ رَجُلًا آخَرَ فَقَتَلَهُ أَوْ قَتَلَهَا، قَالَ: إِنْ لَمْ يَأْتِ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ فَلْيُعْطَ بِرُمَّتِهِ.
It is narrated from Ibn Musayyib that Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked about a man who found another man with his wife and killed him, or killed his wife, so he said: "If he does not bring four witnesses, then he should be prepared to be killed himself."
