حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ حَدَّثَنِي هِشَامُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَسْلَمَ حَدَّثَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ
أَتَى نَفَرٌ مِنْ يَهُودَ فَدَعَوْا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْقُفِّ فَأَتَاهُمْ فِي بَيْتِ الْمِدْرَاسِ فَقَالُوا يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ إِنَّ رَجُلاً مِنَّا زَنَى بِامْرَأَةٍ فَاحْكُمْ بَيْنَهُمْ فَوَضَعُوا لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وِسَادَةً فَجَلَسَ عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ ائْتُونِي بِالتَّوْرَاةِ فَأُتِيَ بِهَا فَنَزَعَ الْوِسَادَةَ مِنْ تَحْتِهِ فَوَضَعَ التَّوْرَاةَ عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ آمَنْتُ بِكِ وَبِمَنْ أَنْزَلَكِ ثُمَّ قَالَ ائْتُونِي بِأَعْلَمِكُمْ فَأُتِيَ بِفَتًى شَابٍّ

A group of Jews came and invited the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to Quff. So he visited them in their school. They said: AbulQasim, one of our men has committed fornication with a woman; so pronounce judgment upon them. They placed a cushion for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who sat on it and said: Bring the Torah. It was then brought. He then withdrew the cushion from beneath him and placed the Torah on it saying: I believed in thee and in Him Who revealed thee. He then said: Bring me one who is learned among you. Then a young man was brought. The transmitter then mentioned the rest of the tradition of stoning similar to the one transmitted by Malik from Nafi'(No. 4431).
