عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ عَنِ الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنْ وَاصِلٍ، عَنْ مَعْرُورِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ قَالَ:
أُتِيَ عُمَرُ بِامْرَأَةٍ رَاعِيَةٍ زَنَتْ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: " وَيْحَ الْمُرَيَّةِ أَذْهَبَتْ حُسْنَهَا اذْهَبَا فَاضْرِبَاهَا، وَلَا تَخْرِقَا جِلْدَهَا إِنَّمَا جَعَلَ اللهُ أَرْبَعَةَ شُهَدَاءَ سِتْرًا سَتَرَكُمْ بِهِ دُونَ فَوَاحِشِكُمْ فَلَا يُطْلِعَنَّ سِتْرَ اللهِ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ وَلَوْ شَاءَ لَجَعَلَهُ رَجُلًا صَادِقًا أَوْ كَاذِبًا

'Umar was brought a shepherdess who had committed adultery. 'Umar said: "Woe to the woman, she has ruined her beauty. Go and strike her, but do not tear her skin. Allah has made four witnesses a covering which He placed over you against your immoralities, so let none of you expose the covering of Allah. Had He willed, He would have made it a truthful man or a lying man."
