'Ali was brought a woman from Hamdan, a young woman who was pregnant, called Shurahah, who was said to have committed zina. 'Ali said to her: “Perhaps a man forced you?” She said: “No.” He said: “Perhaps a man had intercourse with you while you were sleeping?” She said: “No.” He said: “Perhaps you have a husband from among these enemies of ours, and you are concealing him?” She said: “No.” So he detained her until she gave birth. On Thursday he flogged her one hundred lashes, and he stoned her on Friday. He ordered a pit to be dug for her in the marketplace, and the people gathered around her, or he said: around it, and he struck them with the whip. Then he said: “This is not how stoning is done. If you do this, some of you will tear others apart. Rather, line up as you line up for prayer.” Then he said: “O people, the first of the people to stone the adulterer is the imam if there is a confession, and if four witnesses testify to zina, the witnesses are the first of the people to stone him by their testimony, then the imam, then the people.” Then he threw a stone at her and said “Allahu akbar.” Then he ordered the first row, saying: “Throw.” Then he said: “Disperse,” and likewise row by row until they killed her.
