أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ ، قال : حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ ، قال : حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ , عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمُهَلَّبِ ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , فَقَالَتْ : إِنِّي زَنَيْتُ ، وَهِيَ حُبْلَى فَدَفَعَهَا إِلَى وَلِيِّهَا ، فَقَالَ : " أَحْسِنْ إِلَيْهَا ، فَإِذَا وَضَعَتْ فَأْتِنِي بِهَا " , فَلَمَّا وَضَعَتْ جَاءَ بِهَا ، فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَشُكَّتْ عَلَيْهَا ثِيَابُهَا ثُمَّ رَجَمَهَا ثُمَّ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا , فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ : أَتُصَلِّي عَلَيْهَا وَقَدْ زَنَتْ ؟ فَقَالَ : " لَقَدْ تَابَتْ تَوْبَةً لَوْ قُسِمَتْ بَيْنَ سَبْعِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ لَوَسِعَتْهُمْ ، وَهَلْ وَجَدْتَ تَوْبَةً أَفْضَلَ مِنْ أَنْ جَادَتْ بِنَفْسِهَا لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ " .
´It was narrated from "Imran bin Husain that:` a woman from Juhainah came to the Messenger of Allah sand said: "I have committed Zina." And she was committed Zina." And She was pregnant. He handed her over to her guardian and said: "Look after her, and when she gave birth, he brought her to him. He ordered that her garment be wrapped around her, then he offered the funeral prayer for her. 'Umar said to him: "Are you praying for her even though she committed Zina?" he said: "She has repented in a manner that, if it were to be shared among seventy of the people of Al-Madinah it would suffice them. Have you ever seen repentance better than the one who sacrificed herself for the sake of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime?"

1959. Commentary:
➊ “Entrusted to the guardian”: Because the child born from adultery is innocent, therefore he will not be killed; rather, he will be protected. Moreover, this method will help in preventing adultery, because in the form of the child, there will remain an everlasting disgrace for the adulterers.
➋ “She gave birth to the child”: She was not stoned immediately after giving birth, but in other narrations it is mentioned that when the child became independent of her milk and started eating bread. May we be sacrificed for such a compassionate and noble Prophet—sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
➌ If a married woman commits adultery, she too will be stoned just as a man is stoned.
➍ A pregnant woman will not be stoned until she has delivered the child and the child has started eating and drinking other than milk.
➎ It is recommended (mustahabb) to tie clothes so that there is no exposure.
➏ It is not necessary for the judge (qadi) or ruler to participate in the stoning.
➐ If a long time has passed since the sin was committed, the prescribed punishment (hadd) is not dropped because of that; rather, whenever the case is proven in court, the hadd will be established.
➑ After the hadd has been carried out, a person cannot be taunted for that sin, because the hadd eliminates the sin; now it is as if he never committed that sin.

Explanation:
1:
It is understood that when carrying out the prescribed punishment (hadd) upon women, care must be taken to maintain the covering of their bodies (awrah).
2:
Just as with other deceased Muslims, the funeral prayer (salat al-janazah) will also be performed for the one upon whom the prescribed punishment (hadd) has been carried out,
because the implementation of the hadd serves as expiation (kaffarah) for the one upon whom it is applied.
There is consensus among all Muslims on this matter.
This is why, in the aforementioned hadith, the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) clarified to Umar (radi Allahu anhu) the significance of the repentance of this repentant woman.

Benefits and Issues:
➊ The purpose of wrapping and tying the cloth properly around the body is so that the woman’s body is not exposed.
➋ The funeral prayer should be performed for the one upon whom the prescribed punishment (hadd) has been carried out, and she should be buried in the Muslims’ graveyard.
