ADULTERY

243

“If a slave-girl commits adultery and is proven guilty she should be punished but not be rebuked. If she commits it a second time she should be punished likewise, but if she commits it a third time she should be sold even for as little as a hair rope.”

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Abu Hurairah who related that the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
