وحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو كَامِلٍ فُضَيْلُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ مَاعِزَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ حِينَ جِيءَ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ قَصِيرٌ، أَعْضَلُ، لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ رِدَاءٌ، فَشَهِدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ أَنَّهُ زَنَى، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «فَلَعَلَّكَ؟» قَالَ: لَا، وَاللهِ إِنَّهُ قَدْ زَنَى الْأَخِرُ، قَالَ: فَرَجَمَهُ، ثُمَّ خَطَبَ، فَقَالَ: «أَلَا كُلَّمَا نَفَرْنَا غَازِينَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، خَلَفَ أَحَدُهُمْ لَهُ نَبِيبٌ كَنَبِيبِ التَّيْسِ، يَمْنَحُ أَحَدُهُمُ الْكُثْبَةَ، أَمَا وَاللهِ، إِنْ يُمْكِنِّي مِنْ أَحَدِهِمْ لَأُنَكِّلَنَّهُ عَنْهُ.

As he was being brought to Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) I saw Ma'iz bin Malik-a short-statured person with strong sinews, having no cloak around him. He bore witness against his own self four times that he had committed adultery, whereupon Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said: Perhaps (you kissed her or embraced her). He said: No. by God, one deviating (from the path of virtue) has committed adultery. He then got him stoned (to death), and then delivered the address: Behold, as we set out for Jihad in the cause of Allah, one of you lagged behind and shrieked like the bleating of a male goat, and gave a small quantity of milk. By Allah, in case I get hold of him, I shall certainly punish him.
