أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا بَشِيرُ بْنُ الْمُهَاجِرِ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

كُنْتُ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَجَاءَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ بَنِي غَامِدٍ فَقَالَتْ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ إِنِّي قَدْ زَنَيْتُ وَإِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ تُطَهِّرَنِي فَقَالَ لَهَا «ارْجِعِي فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ أَتَتْهُ أَيْضًا فَاعْتَرَفَتْ عِنْدَهُ بِالزِّنَا» فَقَالَتْ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ طَهِّرْنِي فَلَعَلَّكَ أَنْ تَرْدُدَنِي كَمَا رَدَدْتَ مَاعِزَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ فَوَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَحُبْلَى فَقَالَ لَهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «ارْجِعِي حَتَّى تَلِدِي» فَلَمَّا وَلَدَتْ جَاءَتْ بِالصَّبِيِّ تَحْمِلُهُ فِي خِرْقَةٍ فَقَالَتْ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ هَذَا قَدْ وَلَدْتُ فَقَالَ فَاذْهَبِي فَأَرْضِعِيهِ ثُمَّ افْطِمِيهِ فَلَمَّا فَطَمَتْهُ جَاءَتْ بِالصَّبِيِّ فِي يَدِهِ كِسْرَةُ خُبْزٍ فَقَالَتْ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ قَدْ فَطَمْتُهُ فَأَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِالصَّبِيِّ فَدُفِعَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَحُفِرَ لَهَا حُفْرَةٌ فَجُعِلَتْ فِيهَا إِلَى صَدْرِهَا ثُمَّ أَمَرَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يَرْجُمُوهَا فَأَقْبَلَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بِحَجَرٍ فَرَمَى رَأْسَهَا فَتَلَطَّخَ الدَّمُ عَلَى وَجْنَةِ خَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ فَسَبَّهَا فَسَمِعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ سَبَّهُ إِيَّاهَا فَقَالَ «مَهْ يَا خَالِدُ لَا تَسُبَّهَا فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَقَدْ تَابَتْ تَوْبَةً لَوْ تَابَهَا صَاحِبُ مَكْسٍ لَغُفِرَ لَهُ» فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَصُلِّيَ عَلَيْهَا وَدُفِنَتْ

✧ I was sitting with the Prophet ﷺ when a woman from Banu Ghamid came to him and said, "O Prophet of Allah, I have committed adultery, and I want you to purify me." He said to her, "Go back." The next day she came to him again and confessed adultery to him. She said, "O Prophet of Allah, purify me. Perhaps you will turn me away as you turned away Ma'iz b. Malik. By Allah, I am pregnant." The Prophet ﷺ said to her, "Go back until you give birth." When she gave birth, she came with the child, carrying him in a cloth, and said, "O Prophet of Allah, I have given birth to this." He said, "Go and nurse him, then wean him." When she had weaned him, she came with the child, in his hand a piece of bread, and said, "O Prophet of Allah, I have weaned him." The Prophet ﷺ ordered that the child be handed over to a man among the Muslims, and he ordered about her, and a pit was dug for her, and she was placed in it up to her chest. Then he ordered the people to stone her. Khalid b. al-Walid came forward with a stone and threw it at her head, and blood splattered onto Khalid b. al-Walid's cheek, and he cursed her. The Prophet ﷺ heard his cursing her and said, "Gently, Khalid, do not curse her. By Him in Whose hand is my soul, she has repented such a repentance that if a tax collector repented like that, he would be forgiven." Then he ordered about her, and the funeral prayer was offered for her, and she was buried.
