“There was a man living among our dwellings who had a physical defect, and to our astonishment he was seen with one of the slave women of the dwellings, committing illegal sex with her. Sa'd bin 'Ubadah referred his case to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, who said: 'Give him one hundred lashes.' They said: 'O Prophet ﷺ of Allah ﷺ, he is too weak to bear that. If we give him one hundred lashes he will die.' He said: “Then take a branch with a hundred twigs and hit him once.” Another chain reports a similar hadith.
