حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ أَبِي مُسْلِمٍ الْجَرْمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مَخْلَدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ:
أَوَّلُ لِعَانٍ كَانَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ أَنَّ شَرِيكَ بْنَ سَحْمَاءَ قَذَفَهُ هِلَالُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ بِامْرَأَتِهِ، فَرُفِعَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: يَا هِلَالُ، أَرْبَعَةَ شُهُودٍ وَإِلَّا فَحَدٌّ فِي ظَهْرِكَ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ اللهَ لَيَعْلَمُ إِنِّي لَصَادِقٌ، وَلَيُنْزِلَنَّ اللهُ مَا يُبَرِّئُ بِهِ ظَهْرِي مِنَ الْجَلْدِ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ آيَةَ اللِّعَانِ: وَالَّذِينَ يَرْمُونَ أَزْوَاجَهُمْ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمْ شُهَدَاءُ إِلا أَنْفُسُهُمْ إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ، فَدَعَاهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: اشْهَدْ بِاللهِ إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ فِيمَا رَمَيْتَهَا بِهِ مِنَ الزِّنَا، فَشَهِدَ بِذَلِكَ أَرْبَعَ شَهَادَاتٍ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ فِي الْخَامِسَةِ: وَلَعْنَةُ اللهِ عَلَيْكَ إِنْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الْكَاذِبِينَ فِيمَا رَمَيْتَهَا بِهِ مِنَ الزِّنَا، فَفَعَلَ، ثُمَّ دَعَاهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: قُومِي اشْهَدِي بِاللهِ إِنَّهُ لَمِنَ الْكَاذِبِينَ فِيمَا رَمَاكِ بِهِ مِنَ الزِّنَا، فَشَهِدَتْ بِذَلِكَ أَرْبَعَ شَهَادَاتٍ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهَا فِي الْخَامِسَةِ: وَغَضَبُ اللهِ عَلَيْكِ إِنْ كَانَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ فِيمَا رَمَاكِ بِهِ مِنَ الزِّنَا، فَقَالَتْ. قَالَ مَخْلَدٌ: فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ أَوِ الْخَامِسَةِ سَكَتَتْ سَكْتَةً حَتَّى ظَنُّوا أَنَّهَا سَتَعْتَرِفُ، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ: لَا أَفْضَحُ قَوْمِي سَائِرَ الْيَوْمِ، فَمَضَتْ عَلَى الْقَوْلِ، فَفَرَّقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَهُمَا، وَقَالَ: انْظُرُوا، إِنْ جَاءَتْ بِهِ جَعْدًا، حَمْشَ السَّاقَيْنِ فَهُوَ لِشَرِيكِ بْنِ سَحْمَاءَ، وَإِنْ جَاءَتْ بِهِ أَبْيَضَ، سَبِطًا، أَقْمَرَ الْعَيْنَيْنِ فَهُوَ لِهِلَالِ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، فَجَاءَتْ بِهِ آدَمَ جَعْدًا، حَمْشَ السَّاقَيْنِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: لَوْلَا مَا نَزَلَ فِيهِمَا مِنْ كِتَابِ اللهِ كَانَ لِي وَلَهَا شَأْنٌ

✧ The first li'an in Islam was that Sharik b. Sahma' was accused by Hilal b. Umayyah regarding his wife. The matter was brought to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ said: "O Hilal, four witnesses, or else a hadd punishment on your back." He replied: "O Messenger of Allah, Allah knows that I am truthful, and Allah will surely reveal what will clear my back from flogging." Then Allah revealed the verse of li'an: "And those who accuse their wives, and have no witnesses except themselves..." until the end of the verse. The Prophet ﷺ summoned him and said: "Testify by Allah that you are among the truthful in what you accused her of regarding adultery." He testified to that four times. Then he said to him the fifth time: "And the curse of Allah be upon you if you are among the liars in what you accused her of regarding adultery." He did so. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ summoned her and said: "Stand and testify by Allah that he is among the liars in what he accused you of regarding adultery." She testified to that four times. Then he said to her the fifth time: "And the wrath of Allah be upon you if he is among the truthful in what he accused you of regarding adultery." She said... Makhallad said: When it came to the fourth or fifth time, she paused briefly until they thought she would confess, then she said: "I will not disgrace my people for the rest of the day." She continued with her statement. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ separated them and said: "Observe her. If she gives birth to a curly-haired child with lean calves, he belongs to Sharik b. Sahma'. If she gives birth to a fair, straight-haired child with bright eyes, he belongs to Hilal b. Umayyah." She gave birth to a dark, curly-haired child with lean calves. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Were it not for what Allah revealed about them, I would have had a matter with her."
