Bayhaqi 17013 — Reports on questioning the witnesses

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُوسَى الْبَلْخِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، قَالَ: مُجَالِدٌ أنبأ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: جَاءَتِ الْيَهُودُ بِرَجُلٍ وَامْرَأَةٍ مِنْهُمْ زَنَيَا، قَالَ: " ائْتُونِي بِأَعْلَمِ رَجُلَيْنِ مِنْكُمْ " فَأَتَوْهُ بِابْنَيْ صُورِيَا، فَنَشَدَهُمَا: " كَيْفَ تَجِدَانِ أَمْرَ هَذَيْنِ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ؟ " قَالَا: نَجِدُ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ: إِذَا شَهِدَ أَرْبَعَةٌ أَنَّهُمْ رَأَوْا ذَكَرَهُ فِي فَرْجِهَا مِثْلَ الْمِيلِ فِي الْمُكْحُلَةِ رُجِمَا، قَالَ: " فَمَا يَمْنَعُكُمْ أَنْ تَرْجُمُوهُمَا؟ " قَالَا: ذَهَبَ سُلْطَانُنَا، فَكَرِهْنَا الْقَتْلَ، فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالشُّهُودِ فَجَاءُوا أَرْبَعَةً فَشَهِدُوا أَنَّهُمْ رَأَوْا ذَكَرَهُ فِي فَرْجِهَا مِثْلَ الْمِيلِ فِي الْمُكْحُلَةِ، فَأَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِرَجْمِهِمَا.
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Jews brought a woman and a man to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who had committed adultery. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Bring the two most learned men among you." So the two sons of Surya were brought. He put them under oath and asked: "What ruling do you find in the Torah concerning these two?" They said: In the Torah it is that when four witnesses testify that they saw his private part in hers like a kohl stick in a kohl container, they are to be stoned. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Then why do you not stone them?" They replied: Our ruling authority has gone, so we disliked killing. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called for the witnesses, and the four of them gave exactly the same explicit testimony, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) had them stoned.
