Muwatta Malik #1505
Judgements
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ السَّمَّانِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ سَعْدَ بْنَ عُبَادَةَ، قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ وَجَدْتُ مَعَ امْرَأَتِي رَجُلاً أَأُمْهِلُهُ حَتَّى آتِيَ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" نَعَمْ " .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Suhayl ibn Abi Salih as-
Samman from his father from Abu Hurayra that Sad ibn Ubada said to the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, "What do
you think if I find a man with my wife? Shall I grant him a respite
until I bring four witnesses?" The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, replied, "Yes."
