Muwatta' Malik 41-7

Translation

Malik related to me from Suhayl ibn Abi Salih from his father from Abu Hurayra that Sad ibn Ubada said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ "What do you think I should do if I were to find a man with my wife? Should I leave him there until I had brought four witnesses?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Yes."

  زعم أبو بكر البزار أن مالكا انفرد بحديثه عن سهيل في هذا الباب وأنه لم يروه غيره ولا تابعه أحد عليه وأظنه لما رأى حماد بن سلمة قد أرسله وأسنده مالك ظن أنه انفرد به وليس كما ظن البزار
