صحيح مسلم 4450

Abd al-Rahman reported that 'Ali, while delivering the address said:O people, impose the prescribed punishment upon your slaves, those who are married and those not married, for a slave-woman belonging to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had committed adultery, and he committed me to flog her. But she had recently given birth to a child and I was afraid that if I flogged her I might kill her. So I mentioned that to Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) and he said: You have done well

Rapporté par Abd al-Rahman : Ali رضي الله عنه, alors qu’il faisait un sermon, dit : « Ô gens, appliquez la peine légale à vos esclaves, qu’ils soient mariés ou non, car une servante du Messager d’Allah ﷺ a commis l’adultère et il m’a chargé de la fouetter. Mais elle venait d’accoucher et j’ai eu peur que si je la fouettais, elle ne meure. J’en ai parlé au Messager d’Allah ﷺ et il m’a dit : “Tu as bien fait.” »
