I passed by Abu Salamah ibn 'Abd al-Rahman while a man was narrating to him, and he called me and said: "When we hear a strange report, we like to let you hear it, and when you hear one, we like you to narrate it." Then he said to me: "Ask him," meaning the man who was with him, about what he was narrating. The man said: "'Uthman sent a tax collector (musaddiq) to the Banu Sa'd ibn Hudayr, and while he was collecting, a man said to his wife, and with her was a slave girl: 'Account for your mawla,' meaning the slave girl. His wife said: 'Rather, account for your daughter.' The collector said: 'What is this matter?' The man said: 'The mother of this slave girl was a slave of this wife of mine, and I had intercourse with her, and she bore this slave girl.' The collector said: 'I will take your case up until I bring you before the Commander of the Believers.' He said: 'If the Commander of the Believers has ruled concerning us...' The collector said: 'And what did he rule concerning you?' He said: 'His case was brought to 'Umar, Commander of the Believers, and he flogged him one hundred lashes and did not stone him.' I do not know except that he said: So the collector inquired about that and found it as the man had told him."
