حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ عُمَرَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ خَطَبَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بَعَثَ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْحَقِّ وَأَنْزَلَ عَلَيْهِ الْکِتَابَ فَکَانَ فِيمَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ آيَةُ الرَّجْمِ فَقَرَأْنَاهَا وَوَعَيْنَاهَا وَرَجَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَجَمْنَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ وَإِنِّي خَشِيتُ إِنْ طَالَ بِالنَّاسِ الزَّمَانُ أَنْ يَقُولَ قَائِلٌ مَا نَجِدُ آيَةَ الرَّجْمِ فِي کِتَابِ اللَّهِ فَيَضِلُّوا بِتَرْکِ فَرِيضَةٍ أَنْزَلَهَا اللَّهُ تَعَالَی فَالرَّجْمُ حَقٌّ عَلَی مَنْ زَنَی مِنْ الرِّجَالِ وَالنِّسَائِ إِذَا کَانَ مُحْصَنًا إِذَا قَامَتْ الْبَيِّنَةُ أَوْ کَانَ حَمْلٌ أَوْ اعْتِرَافٌ وَايْمُ اللَّهِ لَوْلَا أَنْ يَقُولَ النَّاسُ زَادَ عُمَرُ فِي کِتَابِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَکَتَبْتُهَا
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 4418
Abdullah bin Abbas said: Umar bin al-Khattab gave an address saying: Allah sent Muhammad ﷺ with truth and sent down the Books of him, and the verse of stoning was included in what He sent down to him. We read it and memorized it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had people stoned to death and we have done it also since his death. I am afraid the people might say with the passage of time: We do not find the verse of stoning in the Books of Allah, and thus they stray by abandoning a duty which Allah had received. Stoning is a duty laid down (by Allah) for married men and women who commit fornication when proof is established, or if there is pregnancy, or a confession. I swear by Allah, had it not been so that the people might say: Umar made an addition to Allah’s Book, I would have written it (there).
