نَا ابْنُ صَاعِدٍ ، نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَكَمِ ، أنا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ جُرَيْجٍ ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، " أَنَّ رَجُلا زَنَى ، فَأَمَرَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجُلِدَ الْحَدَّ ، ثُمَّ أَخْبَرَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ كَانَ أُحْصِنَ ، فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَرُجِمَ " .
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man committed adultery, so by the order of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) he was flogged as the prescribed punishment. Later, it was reported to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that the man was a muhsan (married), so by the order of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) he was stoned to death.
