English translation
1947. Abū Hurairah narrated that Abul-Qāsim ﷺ, the Prophet of Repentance, said: "If somebody slanders his slave (by accusing him of committing illegal sexual intercourse) and the slave is innocent from what he says, Allāh will impose the punishment upon him on the Day of Resurrection, unless it is as he said about him." (Sahih) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Sahih. There are narrations on this topic from Suwaid bin Muqarrin and 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar. Ibn Abī Nu'm (a narrator in the chain) is 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Abī Nu'm Al-Bajalī, and his Kunyah is Abul-Ḥakam.
