[4433] 24 - (1696) It was narrated from 'Imrân bin Huṣain that a woman from Juḥainah came to the Prophet of Allâh ﷺ and she was pregnant as the result of Zinâ. She said: O Prophet of Allâh, I have done something that incurs a Hadd punishment, so carry it out on me. The Prophet of Allâh ﷺ called her guardian and said: "Treat her well, then when she has given birth, bring her to me." He did that, and the Prophet of Allâh ﷺ ordered that her clothes be tied around her, then he ordered that she be stoned. Then he offered the funeral prayer for her, and 'Umar said to him: "Will you offer the funeral prayer for her, O Prophet of Allâh, when she has committed Zinâ?" He said: "She has repented in such a manner that if it were divided among seventy of the people of Al-Madīnah, it would be sufficient for them. Have you seen any repentance better than that of one who sacrificed herself to Allāh, Exalted is He?"

Arabic text

٢٤ - (١٦٩٦) حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو غَسَّانَ مَالِكُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ الْمِسْمَعِيُّ. حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذٌ (يَعْنِي ابْنَ هِشَامٍ) حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ. حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو قِلَابَةَ؛ أَنَّ أَبَا الْمُهَلَّبِ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ؛ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ أَتَتْ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وهي حبلى من الزنى. فَقَالَتْ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ! أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْهُ عَلَيَّ. فَدَعَا نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلِيَّهَا. فَقَالَ (أَحْسِنْ إِلَيْهَا. فَإِذَا وَضَعَتْ فائتني بِهَا) فَفَعَلَ. فَأَمَرَ بِهَا نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. فَشُكَّتْ عَلَيْهَا ثِيَابُهَا. ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِهَا فَرُجِمَتْ. ثُمَّ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا. فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ: تُصَلِّي عَلَيْهَا؟ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ! وَقَدْ زَنَتْ. فَقَالَ (لَقَدْ تَابَتْ تَوْبَةً لَوْ قُسِمَتْ بَيْنَ سَبْعِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ لَوَسِعَتْهُمْ. وَهَلْ وَجَدْتَ تَوْبَةً أَفْضَلَ مِنْ أَنْ جَادَتْ بنفسها لله تعالى؟).
