Al-Lu'lu Wal-Marjan 1104 — The Book of Al-Hudûd (Allâh's set limits and punishment for those who violate them)

`Abdullah bin `Umar Narrated from:

The Jews came to Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ and told him that a man and a woman from amongst them had committed illegal sexual intercourse. Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ said to them, “What do you find in the Taurāt [Torah (Old Testament)] as regarding the legal punishment of Ar-Rajm [1] ?” They replied, “(But) we announce their crime and lash them.” ‘Abdullāh bin Salām said, “You are telling a lie, the Taurāt contains the order of Rajm.”They brought and opened the Taurāt and one of them placed his hand on the Verse of Rajm and read the verses preceding and following it. 'Abdullâh bin Salâm said to him, "Lift your hand." When he lifted his hand, the verse of Rajm was written there. They said, "Muhammad has told the truth; the Taurât has the verse of Rajm." The Prophet ﷺ then gave the order that both of them should be stoned to death. 'Abdullâh bin 'Umar said, "I saw the man leaning over the woman to shield her from the stones." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhâri, Hadîth No. 829, Vol. 4)
