5414. It was narrated from Abû Umâmah bin Sahl bin Ḥunaif that a woman who had committed Zinâ was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. He said: "With whom?" She said:[1] "With the paralyzed man who lives in the garden of Sa'd." He was brought and placed before (the Prophet ﷺ) and he confessed. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ called for a bunch of palm leaves and hit him. He took pity on him because of his disability and was lenient with him. (Sahîh)
5412 - أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الْكَرْمَانِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُتِيَ بِامْرَأَةٍ قَدْ زَنَتْ فَقَالَ: «مِمَّنْ؟» قَالَتْ: مِنَ الْمُقْعَدِ الَّذِي فِي حَائِطِ سَعْدٍ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ، فَأُتِيَ بِهِ مَحْمُولًا، فَوُضِعَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، فَاعْتَرَفَ «فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِإِثْكَالٍ فَضَرَبَهُ، وَرَحِمَهُ لِزَمَانَتِهِ، وَخَفَّفَ عَنْهُ»

'Took pity on him': He was not married. Lashes were incumbent for him, because there was the risk of his dying. He was, therefore, whipped with a date palm stalk with its leaves, so as not to cause too much harm to him.
