Bayhaqi 16962 — Those who required the presence of the ruler

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الصَّغَانِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو الْجَوَّابِ، ثنا عَمَّارٌ هُوَ ابْنُ رُزَيْقٍ عَنْ أَبِي حُصَيْنٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، قَالَ: أُتِيَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ بِشَرَاحَةَ الْهَمْدَانِيَّةِ قَدْ فَجَرَتْ، فَرَدَّهَا حَتَّى وَلَدَتْ، فَلَمَّا وَلَدَتْ قَالَ: ائْتُونِي بِأَقْرَبِ النِّسَاءِ مِنْهَا، فَأَعْطَاهَا وَلَدَهَا، ثُمَّ جَلَدَهَا وَرَجَمَهَا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: جَلَدْتُهَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ، وَرَجَمْتُهَا بِالسُّنَّةِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " أَيُّمَا امْرَأَةٍ نَعَى عَلَيْهَا وَلَدُهَا، أَوْ كَانَ اعْتِرَافٌ، فَالْإِمَامُ أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَرْجُمُ، ثُمَّ النَّاسُ، فَإِنْ نَعَاهَا الشُّهُودُ فَالشُّهُودُ أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَرْجُمُ، ثُمَّ الْإِمَامُ ثُمَّ النَّاسُ ".
Al-Sha'bi said that Sharahah al-Hamdaniyyah, who had committed adultery, was brought to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him); then he sent her back so that she could give birth. When the child was born, he said: Call her closest female relative. She was called, then the child was given to her; then he (may Allah be pleased with him) first flogged her, then stoned her, and said: I have flogged her on account of the Book of Allah and stoned her according to the Sunnah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Then he said: Any woman whose adultery becomes evident through confession or pregnancy, the imam should be the first to stone her, then the people; and if her adultery became evident through testimony, then the witnesses should stone first, then the imam and then the people.
