English narration
Narrated by علي بن أبي طالب الهاشمي
Narrated Ali ibn Abu Talib: Abu Zubyan said: A woman who had committed adultery was brought to Umar. He gave orders that she should be stoned. Ali passed by just then. He seized her and let her go. Umar was informed of it. He said: Ask Ali to come to me. Ali came to him and said: Commander of the Faithful, you know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: There are three (people) whose actions are not recorded: A boy till he reaches puberty, a sleeper till he awakes, a lunatic till he is restored to reason. This is an idiot (mad) woman belonging to the family of so and so. Someone might have done this action with her when she suffered the fit of lunacy. Umar said: I do not know. Ali said: I do not know.

أُتِيَ عُمَرُ بِامْرَأَةٍ قَدْ فَجَرَتْ فَأَمَرَ بِرَجْمِهَا فَمَرَّ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَأَخَذَهَا ، فَخَلَّى سَبِيلَهَا فَأُخْبِرَ عُمَرُ ، قَالَ : ادْعُوا لِي عَلِيًّا فَجَاءَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : رُفِعَ الْقَلَمُ عَنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ : عَنِ الصَّبِيِّ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ ، وَعَنِ النَّائِمِ حَتَّى يَسْتَيْقِظَ ، وَعَنِ الْمَعْتُوهِ حَتَّى يَبْرَأَ ، وَإِنَّ هَذِهِ مَعْتُوهَةُ بَنِي فُلَانٍ لَعَلَّ الَّذِي أَتَاهَا وَهِيَ فِي بَلَائِهَا قَالَ : فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : لَا أَدْرِي ، فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام وَأَنَا لَا أَدْرِي
