|H 926

“There was a woman from the tribe of Juhainah who had committed
adultery and became pregnant. She came to the Prophet, praise
and peace be upon him, and told him of her sin and requested him
to administer the punishment.

The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, sent for her guardian
and said to him: „Treat her kindly, and after she has delivered the
child, bring her back.‟

This he did, and the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, asked
for the punishment to be carried out. Her clothes were tied securely
around her and she was stoned. After, the Prophet, praise and
peace be upon him, had led the funeral prayer over her, Omar
Farooq remarked, „O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon
him, she was guilty of adultery yet you are led her funeral prayer.‟
