حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ رَأَيْتُ مَاعِزَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ حِينَ جِيءَ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلًا قَصِيرًا أَعْضَلَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ رِدَاءٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَشَهِدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ أَنَّهُ قَدْ زَنَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ فَلَعَلَّكَ قَبَّلْتَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لَا وَاللَّهِ إِنَّهُ قَدْ زَنَى الْآخِرُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَرَجَمَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ خَطَبَ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَلَا كُلَّمَا نَفَرْنَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ خَلَفَ أَحَدُهُمْ لَهُ نَبِيبٌ كَنَبِيبِ التَّيْسِ يَمْنَحُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ الْكُثْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَمَا إِنَّ اللَّهَ إِنْ يُمَكِّنِّي مِنْ أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا نَكَلْتُهُ عَنْهُنَّ .

I saw Ma’iz bin Malik when he was brought to the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. He was a small and muscular man. He did not wear the loose outer garment. He made confession about him four times that he committed fornication. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: Perhaps you kissed her. He said that this most discarded man has committed fornication. He said: So he had him stoned to death and gave an address, saying: Beware, whenever we go out on an expedition in the path of Allah, one of them (i.e. the people) lags behind with a bleating sound like that of a he-goat, and gives modicum of his milk (i.e. sperm) to one of the women. If Allah gives control over any of them, I shall deter him from them (i.e. women) by punishing him severely.
