1157. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "The child is for the bed, and for the fornicator is the stone."[1] (Sahih) He said: There are narrations on this topic from 'Umar, 'Uthmān, 'Āishah, Abū Umāmah, 'Amr bin Khārijah, Abdullāh bin 'Amr, Al-Barā' bin 'Azib, and Zaid bin Arqam. (Abū 'Eisā said:) The Hadīth of Abū Hurairah is a Hasan Sahih Hadīth, and this is acted upon according to the people of knowledge (among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ). Az-Zuhri reported it from Sa'eed bin Al-Musayyab, and Abū Salamah, from Abū Hurairah.

Arabic text

١١٥٧ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ‌الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْوَلَدُ لِلْفِرَاشِ،» وَلِلْعَاهِرِ الْحَجَرُ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عُمَرَ، وَعُثْمَانَ، وَعَائِشَةَ، وَأَبِي أُمَامَةَ، وَعَمْرِو بْنِ خَارِجَةَ، وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، وَالْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، وَزَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ. حَدِيثُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ وَأَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ.

    [1] "The meaning of 'for him is the stone' is despair. That is he gets nothing in relation to the child. The 'Arabs say: 'For him is the stone' or, 'May his mouth be filled with dust' meaning nothing for him but despair. And they say that the meaning of 'the stone' is stoning to death for fornication. But every fornicator is not stoned to death, rather it is only for the one who has been married." (Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhi).
