Book 68: Divorce

Chapter 11 A divorce given in a state of anger, under compulsion or under the effect of intoxicants or insanity
باب الطَّلاَقِ فِي الإِغْلاَقِ
Sahih al-Bukhari 5271, 5272

Narrated Abu Huraira:

A man from Bani Aslam came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) while he was in the mosque and called (the Prophet (ﷺ) )
saying, “O Allah’s Messenger! I have committed illegal sexual intercourse.” On that the Prophet (ﷺ) turned
his face from him to the other side, whereupon the man moved to the side towards which the Prophet (ﷺ)
had turned his face, and said, “O Allah’s Messenger! I have committed illegal sexual intercourse.” The
Prophet turned his face (from him) to the other side whereupon the man moved to the side towards
which the Prophet (ﷺ) had turned his face, and repeated his statement. The Prophet (ﷺ) turned his face (from
him) to the other side again. The man moved again (and repeated his statement) for the fourth time. So
when the man had given witness four times against himself, the Prophet (ﷺ) called him and said, “Are you
insane?” He replied, “No.” The Prophet (ﷺ) then said (to his companions), “Go and stone him to death.”
The man was a married one. Jabir bin `Abdullah Al-Ansari said: I was one of those who stoned him.
We stoned him at the Musalla (`Id praying place) in Medina. When the stones hit him with their sharp
edges, he fled, but we caught him at Al-Harra and stoned him till he died.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَسَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ أَتَى رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَهْوَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَنَادَاهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الأَخِرَ قَدْ زَنَى ـ يَعْنِي نَفْسَهُ ـ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَتَنَحَّى لِشِقِّ وَجْهِهِ الَّذِي أَعْرَضَ قِبَلَهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الأَخِرَ قَدْ زَنَى فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَتَنَحَّى لِشِقِّ وَجْهِهِ الَّذِي أَعْرَضَ قِبَلَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ ذَلِكَ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَتَنَحَّى لَهُ الرَّابِعَةَ، فَلَمَّا شَهِدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَرْبَعَ شَهَادَاتٍ دَعَاهُ فَقَالَ ‏”‏ هَلْ بِكَ جُنُونٌ ‏”‏‏.‏ قَالَ لاَ‏.‏ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏”‏ اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَارْجُمُوهُ ‏”‏‏.‏ وَكَانَ قَدْ أُحْصِنَ‏.‏
وَعَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي مَنْ، سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَنْصَارِيَّ، قَالَ كُنْتُ فِيمَنْ رَجَمَهُ فَرَجَمْنَاهُ بِالْمُصَلَّى بِالْمَدِينَةِ، فَلَمَّا أَذْلَقَتْهُ الْحِجَارَةُ جَمَزَ حَتَّى أَدْرَكْنَاهُ بِالْحَرَّةِ، فَرَجَمْنَاهُ حَتَّى مَاتَ‏.‏
