Hadith 23
The Book of the Etiquette of Judges
It was narrated from Abu Umamah bin Sahl bin Hunaif that:
A woman who had committed Zina was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) [ﷺ]. He said: "With whom?" She said: "With the paralyzed man who lives in the garden of Sa'd." He was brought and placed before (the Prophet (ﷺ) [ﷺ]) and he confessed. The Messenger of Allah [ﷺ] called for a bunch of palm leaves and hit him. He took pity on him because of his disability and was lenient with him.
أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الْكَرْمَانِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أُتِيَ بِامْرَأَةٍ قَدْ زَنَتْ فَقَالَ
