Jabir bin Abdullah said: A man of the tribe of Asalam came to the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and made confession of fornication. He (the prophet) turned away from him. When he testified against him four times, the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Are you mad? He said: No. he asked: Are you married? He replied: Yes. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم then commanded regarding him and he was stoned in the place of prayer. Then when the stones hurt him, he fled, but was overtaken and stoned to death. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم then spoke well of him and did not pray over him.
