وَقَالَ الْحُمَيْدِيُّ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، ثَنَا مُجَالِدٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ ؓ قَالَ:

زَنَى رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ فَدَكَ، فَكَتَبَ أَهْلُ فَدَكَ إِلَى نَاسٍ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ بِالْمَدِينَةِ: أَنْ سَلُوا مُحَمَّدًا عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَإِنْ أَمَرَكُمْ بِالْجَلْدِ فَخُذُوهُ عَنْهُ، وَإِنْ أَمَرَكُمْ بِالرَّجْمِ فَلَا تَأْخُذُوهُ عَنْهُ، فَسَأَلُوهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ; فَقَالَ: « أَرْسِلُوا إِلَيَّ أَعْلَمَ رَجُلَيْنِ مِنْكُمْ. فَجَاؤُوا بِرَجُلٍ أَعْوَرَ، يُقَالُ لَهُ: ابْنُ صُورِيَا، وَآخَرُ، فَقَالَ لَهُمَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: « أَنْتُمَا أَعْلَمُ مَنْ قِبَلِكُمَا ؟ » فَقَالَا: قَدْ نَحَا قَوْمُنَا لِذَلِكَ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَهُمَا: « أَلَيْسَ عِنْدَكُمَا التَّوْرَاةُ فِيهَا حُكْمُ اللهِ تَعَالَى ؟ » قَالَا: بَلَى، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: « فَأَنْشُدُكُمَا بِالَّذِي فَلَقَ الْبَحْرَ لِمُوسَى، وَظَلَّلَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْغَمَامَ، وَأَنْجَاكُمْ مِنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَأَنْزَلَ الْمَنَّ وَالسَّلْوَى عَلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، مَا تَجِدُونَ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ فِي شَأْنِ الرَّجْمِ ؟ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِلْآخَرِ: مَا نُشِدْتُ بِمِثْلِهِ قَطُّ ؟ ثُمَّ قَالَ: نَجِدُ تَرْدَادَ النَّظَرِ زَنْيَةً، وَالْإِعْنَاقَ زَنْيَةً، فَإِذَا شَهِدَ أَرْبَعَةٌ أَنَّهُمْ رَأَوْهُ يُبْدِي وَيُعِيدُ كَمَا يَدْخُلُ الْمِيلُ فِي الْمُكْحُلَةِ فَقَدْ وَجَبَ الرَّجْمُ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: هُوَ ذَاكَ. فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَرُجِمَ، وَنَزَلَتْ: فَإِنْ جَاءُوكَ فَاحْكُمْ بَيْنَهُمْ أَوْ أَعْرِضْ عَنْهُمْ الْآيَاتِ.

✧ A man from the people of Fadak committed adultery. The people of Fadak wrote to some Jews in Madinah: "Ask Muhammad about this. If he orders you to flog, then take it from him; but if he orders you to stone, then do not take it from him." So they asked him about it. He said: "Send to me the two most learned men among you." They brought a one-eyed man called Ibn Suriya and another. The Prophet ﷺ said to them: "Are you two the most learned of those before you?" They said: "Our people have inclined to that." The Prophet ﷺ said to them: "Do you not have the Torah, which contains the ruling of Allah, Exalted is He?" They said: "Yes." The Prophet ﷺ said: "I adjure you by the One who parted the sea for Musa, shaded you with clouds, saved you from the people of Pharaoh, and sent down manna and quails upon the Children of Israel: What do you find in the Torah concerning stoning?" One of them said to the other: "We have never been adjured by anything like this." Then he said: "We find that repeated looking is fornication, and embracing is fornication. If four witnesses testify that they saw him engaging in the act as a probe enters a kohl container, then stoning becomes obligatory." The Prophet ﷺ said: "That is it." So he ordered him and he was stoned. Then the verse was revealed: "So if they come to you, judge between them or turn away from them..."
