حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ جَاءَتِ الْيَهُودُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَذَكَرُوا لَهُ أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنْهُمْ وَامْرَأَةً زَنَيَا فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَا تَجِدُونَ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ فِي شَأْنِ الرَّجْمِ " . فَقَالُوا نَفْضَحُهُمْ وَيُجْلَدُونَ . فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ كَذَبْتُمْ إِنَّ فِيهَا الرَّجْمَ . فَأَتَوْا بِالتَّوْرَاةِ فَنَشَرُوهَا فَوَضَعَ أَحَدُهُمْ يَدَهُ عَلَى آيَةِ الرَّجْمِ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ مَا قَبْلَهَا وَمَا بَعْدَهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ ارْفَعْ يَدَكَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَإِذَا فِيهَا آيَةُ الرَّجْمِ فَقَالُوا صَدَقَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فِيهَا آيَةُ الرَّجْمِ . فَأَمَرَ بِهِمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَرُجِمَا . فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ فَرَأَيْتُ الرَّجُلَ يَحْنِي عَلَى الْمَرْأَةِ يَقِيهَا الْحِجَارَةَ .
Malik related to me from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar said, "TheJews came to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant himpeace, and mentioned to him that a man and woman from among them hadcommitted adultery. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him andgrant him peace, asked them, 'What do you find in the Torah aboutstoning?' They said, 'We make their wrong action known and flog them.'Abdullah ibn Salam said, 'You have lied! It has stoning for it, sobring the Torah.' They spread it out and one of them placed his handover the ayat of stoning. Then he read what was before it and what wasafter it. Abdullah ibn Salam told him to lift his hand. He lifted hishand and there was the ayat of stoning. They said, 'He has spoken thetruth, Muhammad. The ayat of stoning is in it.' So the Messenger ofAllah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, gave the order andthey were stoned . " Abdullah ibn Umar added, "I saw the manleaning over the woman to protect her from the stones." Malikcommented, "By leaning he meant throwing himself over her so that thestones fell on him."
