they are scourged." ʿAbduʾlláh bin Salám said, "You lie! Verily in it is the command to stone." Then they brought the Taurát and opened it out. But one of them placed his hand over the verse of stoning, and read what preceded it and what followed it. Then ʿAbduʾlláh bin Salám said, "Lift up thy hand." And he lifted it up, and behold in it was the verse of stoning. Then they said, "He has spoken truly, O Muḥammad, in it is the verse of stoning." Then the Prophet gave orders concerning them both, and they were stoned.'—Muslim, Al Bukhárí.
