Malik related to me that Yahya ibn Said heard Said ibn al-Musayyab say, "When Umar ibn al-Khattab came from Mina, he made hiscamel kneel at al-Abtah, and then he gathered a pile of small stonesand cast his cloak over them and dropped to the ground. Then he raisedhis hands to the sky and said, 'O Allah! I have become old and mystrength has weakened. My flock is scattered. Take me to You withnothing missed out and without having neglected anything.' Then hewent to Madina and addressed the people. He said, 'People! Sunan havebeen laid down for you. Obligations have been placed upon you. Youhave been left with a clear way unless you lead people astray rightand left.' He struck one of his hands on the other and then said,'Take care lest you destroy the ayat of stoning so that one will say,"We do not find two hadds in the Book of Allah." The Messenger ofAllah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, stoned, so we havestoned. By He in Whose Hand my self is, had it not been that peoplewould say that Umar ibn al-Khattab has added to the Book of Allah ta-ala, we would have written it, "The full-grown man and the full-grownwoman, stone them absolutely." We have certainly recited that.'" Malik said, "Yahya ibn Said said Said ibn al-Musayyab said,'Dhu'l-Hijja had not passed before Umar was murdered, may Allah havemercy on him.' " Yahya said that he had heard Malik say, "Asfor his words 'The full-grown man and the full-grown woman' he meant,'The man and the woman who have been married, stone them absolutely.'"

Malik related to me that he had heard that Uthman ibn Affan wasbrought a woman who had given birth after six months and he orderedher to be stoned. Ali ibn Abi Talib said to him, "She does not deservethat. Allah, the Blessed, the Exalted, says in His Book, 'Theircarrying and weaning is thirty months,' (Sura 46 ayat 15) and he said,'Mothers suckle their children for two full years for whoever wishesto complete the suckling.' (Sura 2 ayat 233) Pregnancy can then be sixmonths, so she does not deserve to be stoned." Uthman ibn Affan sentfor her and found that she had already been stoned. Malikrelated to me that he asked Ibn Shihab about someone who committedsodomy. Ibn Shihab said, "He is to be stoned, whether or not he ismuhsan." Translation Not Available
