Mustadrak al-Hakim — Hadith 8278

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that Ma'iz bin Malik came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: I have committed an indecent act. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned him away several times, and asked his people: "Is there anything wrong with him (a mental disorder)?" They said: There is nothing wrong with him, except that he has committed a deed from which he sees no way of deliverance except by having the prescribed punishment (hadd) imposed on him. Abu Sa'id said: He (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered us, so we took him to Baqi' al-Gharqad. We neither dug a pit for him nor tied him up. We began pelting him with potsherds, bones and stones. When he was hurt, he ran, and we ran after him until he stood facing us at al-Harrah. Then we pelted him with large rocks until he fell silent (died). Then in the evening the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon; he praised and extolled Allah and said: "Amma ba'd (to proceed): What is the matter with people that, when we go out on a military expedition, one of them stays behind among our families making noises like a billy goat (seeking immorality)? Know that whoever such is brought to me, I will give him an exemplary punishment." The narrator said: Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) came down from the pulpit. He (peace and blessings be upon him) neither reviled Ma'iz nor sought forgiveness for him.
This hadith is sahih on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
