A bedouin came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "Messenger of Allah, I implore you by Allah to judge between us according to the Book of Allah."His opponent, who was more knowledgeable than him, said, "Yes, judge between us by the Book of Allah, and grant me permission to speak."The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Speak."He said, "My son was a hired worker employed by this man, and he committed adultery with his wife. I was told that my son must be stoned, so I paid a ransom of one hundred sheep and a slave girl on his behalf. Then I asked the people of knowledge, and they informed me that my son is to receive one hundred lashes and be banished for a year, while this man's wife is the one to be stoned."The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By the One in whose hand is my soul, I will judge between you according to the Book of Allah. The slave girl and the sheep are to be returned to you. Your son shall receive one hundred lashes and be banished for a year. Anees, go tomorrow to this man's wife, and if she confesses, stone her."He went to her the next day, and she confessed, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered that she be stoned, and she was stoned.
