Translation: Pickthall
[al-Ma'idah 5:43] How come they unto thee for judgment when they have the Torah, wherein Allah hath delivered judgment (for them) ?
Yet even after that they turn away. Such (folk) are not believers.

saying, "O Allah's Apostle! I have committed illegal sexual intercourse.'" The
Prophet turned his face to the other side, but that man repeated his statement
four times, and after he bore witness against himself four times, the Prophet
called him, saying, "Are you mad?" The man said, "No." The Prophet said, "Are
you married?" The man said, "Yes." Then the Prophet said, 'Take him away and
stone him to death." Jabir bin 'Abdullah said: I was among the ones who
participated in stoning him and we stoned him at the Musalla. When the stones
troubled him, he fled, but we over took him at Al-Harra and stoned him to
death.

Narrated 'Aisha:
Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas and 'Abd bin Zam'a quarrelled with each other
(regarding a child). The Prophet said, "The boy is for you, O 'Abd bin Zam'a,
for the boy is for (the owner) of the bed. O Sauda ! Screen yourself from the
boy." The sub-narrator, Al-Laith added (that the Prophet also said), "And the
stone is for the person who commits an illegal sexual intercourse."
Volume 8, Book 82, Number 809:
Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
A Jew and a Jewess were brought to Allah's Apostle on a charge of committing
an illegal sexual intercourse. The Prophet asked them. "What is the legal
punishment (for this sin) in your Book (Torah)?" They replied, "Our priests
have innovated the punishment of blackening the faces with charcoal and
Tajbiya." 'Abdullah bin Salam said, "O Allah's Apostle, tell them to bring the
Torah." The Torah was brought, and then one of the Jews put his hand over
the Divine Verse of the Rajam (stoning to death) and started reading what
preceded and what followed it. On that, Ibn Salam said to the Jew, "Lift up
your hand." Behold! The Divine Verse of the Rajam was under his hand. So
Allah's Apostle ordered that the two (sinners) be stoned to death, and so they
were stoned. Ibn 'Umar added: So both of them were stoned at the Balat and I
saw the Jew sheltering the Jewess.
Volume 8, Book 82, Number 810:
Narrated Jabir:
A man from the tribe of Aslam came to the Prophet and confessed that he had
committed an illegal sexual intercourse. The Prophet turned his face away from
him till the man bore witness against himself four times. The Prophet said to
him, "Are you mad?" He said "No." He said, "Are you married?" He said, "Yes."
Then the Prophet ordered that he be stoned to death, and he was stoned to
death at the Musalla. When the stones troubled him, he fled, but he was caught
and was stoned till he died. The Prophet spoke well of him and offered his
funeral prayer.
Volume 8, Book 82, Number 813:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
When Ma'iz bin Malik came to the Prophet (in order to confess), the Prophet
said to him, "Probably you have only kissed (the lady), or winked, or looked at
her?" He said, "No, O Allah's Apostle!" The Prophet said, using no euphemism,
"Did you have sexual intercourse with her?" The narrator added: At that, (i.e.
after his confession) the Prophet ordered that he be stoned (to death).
Volume 8, Book 82, Number 816:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
'Umar said, "I am afraid that after a long time has passed, people may
say, "We do not find the Verses of the Rajam (stoning to death) in the
Holy Book," and consequently they may go astray by leaving an obligation that
Allah has revealed. Lo! I confirm that the penalty of Rajam be inflicted on him
who commits illegal sexual intercourse, if he is already married and the crime
is proved by witnesses or pregnancy or confession." Sufyan added, "I have
memorized this narration in this way." 'Umar added, "Surely Allah's Apostle
carried out thepenalty of Rajam, and so did we after him."
