English narration
Narrated by النعمان بن بشير الأنصاري
Narrated An-Numan ibn Bashir: Habib ibn Salim said: A man called Abdur Rahman ibn Hunayn had intercourse with his wife's slave-girl. The matter was brought to an-Numan ibn Bashir who was the Governor of Kufah. He said: I shall decide between you in accordance with the decision of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. If she made her lawful for you, I shall flog you one hundred lashes. If she did not make her lawful for you, I shall stone you to death. So they found that she had made her lawful for him. He, therefore, flogged him one hundred lashes. Qatadah said: I wrote to Habib bin Salim; so he wrote this (tradition) to me.

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ عُرْفُطَةَ ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ ، أَنَّ رَجُلا يُقَالُ لَهُ : عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ حُنَيْنٍ وَقَعَ عَلَى جَارِيَةِ امْرَأَتِهِ ، فَرَفَعَ إِلَى النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ وَهُوَ أَمِيرٌ عَلَى الْكُوفَةِ ، فَقَالَ : "
لأَقْضِيَنَّ فِيكَ بِقَضِيَّةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، إِنْ كَانَتْ أَحَلَّتْهَا لَكَ جَلَدْتُكَ مِائَةً ، وَإِنْ لَمْ تَكْنُ أَحَلَّتْهَا لَكَ رَجَمْتُكَ بِالْحِجَارَةِ
" . فَوَجَدُوهُ أَحَلَّتْهَا لَهُ فَجَلَدَهُ مِائَةً . قَالَ قَتَادَة : كَتَبْتُ إِلَى حَبِيبِ بْن سَالِمٍ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيَّ بِهَذَا .
