حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا بَشِيرُ بْنُ الْمُهَاجِرِ ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ مَاعِزُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ، فَاعْتَرَفَ عِنْدَهُ بِالزِّنَا، فَرَدَّهُ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ الرَّابِعَةَ فَاعْتَرَفَ،" فَأَمَرَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَحُفِرَ لَهُ حُفْرَةٌ فَجُعِلَ فِيهَا إِلَى صَدْرِهِ، وَأَمَرَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يَرْجُمُوهُ "

Abu Nu`aym told us, Bashir ibn al-Muhajir told us, Abdullah ibn Buraydah told me, on the authority of his father, he said: I was sitting with the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. May God bless him and grant him peace. Then a man called Ma’iz bin Malik came to him and confessed to him about adultery. He repeated him three times, then he came the fourth time and confessed. So the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, ordered that a pit be dug for him, and he was placed in it up to his chest, and he ordered the people to stone him.”
