حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا طَلْقُ بْنُ غَنَّامٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ بْنُ حَفْصٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَازِمٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَاهُ فَأَقَرَّ عِنْدَهُ أَنَّهُ زَنَی بِامْرَأَةٍ سَمَّاهَا لَهُ فَبَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَی الْمَرْأَةِ فَسَأَلَهَا عَنْ ذَلِکَ فَأَنْکَرَتْ أَنْ تَکُونَ زَنَتْ فَجَلَدَهُ الْحَدَّ وَتَرَکَهَا
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 4466
Narrated Sahl ibn Saad: A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and made acknowledgment before him that he had committed fornication with a woman whom he named. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent someone to the woman and he asked her about it. She denied that she had committed fornication. So he gave him the prescribed punishment of lashes and left her.
