3499. It was narrated that Anas bin Mâlik said: "The first Li'an in Islam was when Hilâl bin Umayyah accused Sharik bin As-Saḥmâ' (of committing adultery) with his wife. He came to the Prophet ﷺ and told him about that. The Prophet ﷺ said: '(Bring) four witnesses, otherwise (you will feel) the Hadd punishment on your back.' And he repeated that several times. Hilâl said to him: 'By Allâh, O Messenger of Allâh! Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, knows that I am telling the truth, and Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, will certainly reveal to you that which will spare my back from the whip.' While they were like that, the Verse of Li'an was revealed to him: As to those who accuse their wives.[1] He called Hilâl and he bore witness four times by Allâh that he was telling the truth, and the fifth
time he invoked the curse of Allâh upon him if he were lying. Then he called the woman and she bore witness four times by Allâh that he was lying. When it came to the fourth or fifth time, the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Stop her, for it will inevitably bring the punishment of Allâh upon the liar.' She hesitated until we thought that she was going to confess, then she said: 'I will not dishonor my people today.' Then she went ahead with the oath. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Wait and see. If she produces a child who is white, with straight hair and Qadiy'a eyes, then he belongs to Hilâl bin Umayyah, but if she produces a child who is dark with curly hair, of average size and with narrow calves, then he belongs to Sharîk bin As-Saḥmâ'.' She produced a child who was dark with curly hair, of average size and with narrow calves. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Had not the matter been settled by the Book of Allâh, I would have punished her severely.'" (Saḥîḥ)
The Shaikh[1] said: Qadiy'a eye: Long eye lashes, not the opening of the eye or their protrusion. And Allâh, Glorious is He and Most High, knows best. (Saḥîḥ)

3469 - أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَخْلَدُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ حَسَّانَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: إِنَّ أَوَّلَ لِعَانٍ كَانَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ أَنَّ هِلَالَ بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ قَذَفَ شَرِيكَ بْنَ السَّحْمَاءِ بِامْرَأَتِهِ، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَرْبَعَةَ شُهَدَاءَ وَإِلَّا فَحَدٌّ فِي ظَهْرِكَ» يُرَدِّدُ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ مِرَارًا، فَقَالَ لَهُ هِلَالٌ: وَاللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَيَعْلَمُ أَنِّي صَادِقٌ، وَلَيُنْزِلَنَّ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْكَ مَا يُبَرِّئُ ظَهْرِي مِنَ الْجَلْدِ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ نَزَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ آيَةُ اللِّعَانِ {وَالَّذِينَ يَرْمُونَ أَزْوَاجَهُمْ} [النور: 6] إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ، فَدَعَا هِلَالًا فَشَهِدَ أَرْبَعَ شَهَادَاتٍ بِاللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لَمِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ، وَالْخَامِسَةُ أَنَّ لَعْنَةَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ إِنْ كَانَ مِنَ الْكَاذِبِينَ، ثُمَّ دُعِيَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ فَشَهِدَتْ أَرْبَعَ شَهَادَاتٍ بِاللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لَمِنَ الْكَاذِبِينَ، فَلَمَّا أَنْ كَانَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ أَوِ الْخَامِسَةِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَقِّفُوهَا فَإِنَّهَا مُوجِبَةٌ»، فَتَلَكَّأَتْ حَتَّى مَا شَكَكْنَا أَنَّهَا سَتَعْتَرِفُ، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ: لَا أَفْضَحُ قَوْمِي سَائِرَ الْيَوْمِ، فَمَضَتْ عَلَى الْيَمِينِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «انْظُرُوهَا، فَإِنْ جَاءَتْ بِهِ أَبْيَضَ سَبِطًا قَضِيءَ الْعَيْنَيْنِ فَهُوَ لِهِلَالِ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، وَإِنْ جَاءَتْ بِهِ آدَمَ جَعْدًا رَبْعًا حَمْشَ السَّاقَيْنِ فَهُوَ لِشَرِيكِ بْنِ السَّحْمَاءِ»، فَجَاءَتْ بِهِ آدَمَ جَعْدًا رَبْعًا حَمْشَ السَّاقَيْنِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْلَا مَا سَبَقَ فِيهَا مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ لَكَانَ لِي وَلَهَا شَأْنٌ» قَالَ الشَّيْخُ " وَالْقَضِئُ طَوِيلُ شَعْرِ الْعَيْنَيْنِ، لَيْسَ بِمَفْتُوحِ الْعَيْنِ وَلَا جَاحِظِهِمَا، وَاللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ
