4473. It was narrated from Isrā'īl: "Abdul-A'lā narrated to us, from Abū Jamilah, from 'Ali, who said: 'A slave woman belonging to the family of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ committed Zinā, and he said: 'O 'Ali, go and carry out the Hadd (punishment) on her." I went and به. found that blood was flowing from her and would not stop. I came to him and he said: "O 'Ali, have you finished (with the punishment)?" I said: "I went to her and found that her blood was flowing." He said: "Leave her until her bleeding stops, then carry out the Hadd (punishment) on her. Carry out the Hadd (punishment) on those whom your right hands possess." (Da'if) Abū Dāwud said: Abū Al-Aḥwaṣ narrated a similar report from 'Abd Al-A'lā, and Shu'bah narrated it from 'Abdul-A'lā, and said: "And he said: 'Do not flog her until she has given birth.'" But the first report is more correct.

4473 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى، عَنْ أَبِي جَمِيلَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: فَجَرَتْ جَارِيَةٌ لِآلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «يَا عَلِيُّ، انْطَلِقْ فَأَقِمْ عَلَيْهَا الْحَدَّ»، فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَإِذَا بِهَا دَمٌ يَسِيلُ لَمْ يَنْقَطِعْ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: «يَا عَلِيُّ، أَفَرَغْتَ» قُلْتُ: أَتَيْتُهَا وَدَمُهَا يَسِيلُ، فَقَالَ: «دَعْهَا حَتَّى يَنْقَطِعَ دَمُهَا، ثُمَّ أَقِمْ عَلَيْهَا الْحَدَّ، وَأَقِيمُوا الْحُدُودَ عَلَى مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُكُمْ» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: وَكَذَلِكَ رَوَاهُ أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، وَرَوَاهُ شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى فَقَالَ فِيهِ: قَالَ: «لَا تَضْرِبْهَا حَتَّى تَضَعَ» وَالْأَوَّلُ أَصَحُّ
