4449. It was narrated that Ibn ‘Umar said: “Some of the Jews came and called the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ to Al-Quff, and he came to them in their school. They said: ‘O Abul-Qāsim, a man among us has committed Zinā with a woman, so pass judgment concerning them.’ They set out a cushion for the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and he sat on it, then he said: ‘Bring me the Tawrah.’ It was brought, and he took the cushion from beneath him and placed the Tawrah on it and said: ‘I believe in you and in the One Who revealed to you.’ Then he said: ‘Bring me the most knowledgeable amongst you, and a young man was brought to him...’ and he mentioned the story of stoning as mentioned in the Hadīth of Mālik from Nāfi’ (no. 4446).
