بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي الرَّجْمِChapter on what is reported regarding stoning (rajm)
Hadith 1549
Saeed bin Musayyib said that not even the month of Dhu al-Hijjah had passed when Sayyiduna Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, was killed. (At the hands of Firoz the Magian; Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, accepted the supplication of Sayyiduna Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, and granted him the rank of martyrdom.)
حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ: لَمَّا صَدَرَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، مِنْ مِنًى أَنَاخَ بِالْأَبْطَحِ ثُمَّ كَوَّمَ كَوْمَةً بَطْحَاءَ ثُمَّ طَرَحَ عَلَيْهَا رِدَاءَهُ. وَاسْتَلْقَى. ثُمَّ مَدَّ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَقَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ كَبِرَتْ سِنِّي، وَضَعُفَتْ قُوَّتِي، وَانْتَشَرَتْ رَعِيَّتِي، فَاقْبِضْنِي إِلَيْكَ غَيْرَ مُضَيِّعٍ، وَلَا مُفَرِّطٍ» ثُمَّ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَخَطَبَ النَّاسَ. فَقَالَ: «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ سُنَّتْ لَكُمُ السُّنَنُ. وَفُرِضَتْ لَكُمُ الْفَرَائِضُ. وَتُرِكْتُمْ عَلَى الْوَاضِحَةِ. إِلَّا أَنْ تَضِلُّوا بِالنَّاسِ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالًا». وَضَرَبَ بِإِحْدَى يَدَيْهِ عَلَى الْأُخْرَى ". ثُمَّ قَالَ: «إِيَّاكُمْ أَنْ تَهْلِكُوا عَنْ آيَةِ الرَّجْمِ». أَنْ يَقُولَ قَائِلٌ لَا نَجِدُ حَدَّيْنِ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ. فَقَدْ رَجَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَجَمْنَا. وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، لَوْلَا أَنْ يَقُولَ النَّاسُ: زَادَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى لَكَتَبْتُهَا - الشَّيْخُ وَالشَّيْخَةُ فَارْجُمُوهُمَا أَلْبَتَّةَ - فَإِنَّا قَدْ قَرَأْنَاهَا
It is narrated from Hazrat Sa'id bin al-Musayyib that when Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) returned from Mina (this was his last Hajj in 23 Hijri), he made his camel sit down at Abtah (a place near Makkah also called Muhassab), and made a pile of pebbles on one side, spread his sheet over himself, and lay down on his back (using the pile of pebbles as a pillow). Then he raised both hands towards the sky and said: O Lord! My life has become long, my strength has diminished, and my subjects have spread far and wide (meaning the caliphate and government have spread to many lands, and people in distant places have become subjects), so now take me to Yourself in such a state that I do not neglect Your commands, nor fall short in worship. Then he came to Madinah and delivered a sermon to the people. He said: O people! All the ways have become clear, and all the obligations have been prescribed, and you have been set upon a straight and clear path, but beware lest you go astray to the right or left. And he struck one hand upon the other, then said: Do not forget the verse of Rajm (stoning), lest someone say, "We do not find two punishments in the Book of Allah." Behold, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) carried out Rajm, and we also carried out Rajm after him. By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if people did not say that Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) had added to the Book of Allah, I would have written this verse in the Qur'an «الشَّيْخُ وَالشَّيْخَةُ فَارْجُمُوهُمَا أَلْبَتَّةَ» that is: "When a married man and a married woman commit adultery, stone them." We have recited this verse. (Then its recitation was discontinued, but its ruling remains until the Day of Judgment.)
