وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو حَازِمٍ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْفَضْلِ بْنُ خِمَيْرَوَيْهِ، أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ، ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، ثنا أَبُو شِهَابٍ عَبْدُ رَبِّهِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، أَنَّ مُعَاوِيَةَ كَتَبَ إِلَى أَبِي مُوسَى: سَلْ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ، فَإِذَا مَعَ امْرَأَتِهِ رَجُلٌ، فَقَتَلَهَا، أَوْ قَتَلَهُ؟ فَسَأَلَهُ أَبُو مُوسَى، فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: مَا ذَكَّرَكَ هَذَا؟ إِنَّ هَذَا لَشَيْءٌ مَا هُوَ بِأَرْضِنَا؟ عَزَمْتُ عَلَيْكَ، قَالَ: كَتَبَ إِلِيَّ مُعَاوِيَةُ فِي أَنْ أَسْأَلَكَ عَنْهَا، قَالَ: أَنَا أَبُو حَسَنٍ: " إِنْ جَاءَنَا بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ، وَإِلَّا دَفَعَ بِرُمَّتِهِ "، قَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ: " يُقْتَلُ ". قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: وَقَدْ مَضَى مِنْ حَدِيثِ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ. قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: وَشَهِدَ ثَلَاثَةٌ عَلَى رَجُلٍ عِنْدَ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ بِالزِّنَا، وَلَمْ يُثْبِتِ الرَّابِعُ، فَجَلَدَ الثَّلَاثَةَ.
Sa'id bin al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) said that Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote to Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) asking him to ask Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) about a man who enters his house and finds another man with his wife, and he kills her or kills him. Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him, and Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: What reminded you of this? This is something that has not happened in our land. I adjure you (to tell me). Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote to me asking me to ask you about it. He said: I am Abu al-Hasan: if he brings four witnesses (then so be it); otherwise he is to be handed over with his rope (for retaliation). Yahya bin Sa'id (may Allah have mercy on him) said: He is to be killed.
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Three men testified against a man for adultery before Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and the fourth did not confirm it, so he flogged the three.
