Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:"Hilal bin Umayyah went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and accused his wife of committing illegal sexual intercourse with Sharik bin Sahma. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Either you produce proof, or you will receive the legal punishment on your back.'" He said: "Hilal said: 'O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)! If one of us saw a man over his wife, should he go and search for witnesses?' The Prophet (ﷺ) kept on saying: 'Either you produce proof, or you will receive the legal punishment on your back.'" He said: "Hilal then said, 'By Him Who sent you with the Truth and Allah will reveal to you what will save my back from the legal punishment.' Then (the following) was revealed: And for those who accuse their wives, but have not witnesses except themselves, let the testimony of one of them be four testimonies by Allah that he is one of those who speak the truth (24:6-9). He recited it until he reached: 'And the fifth; should be that the wrath of Allah be upon her if he speaks the truth.' Then the Prophet (ﷺ) was saying: 'Allah knows that one of you is a liar, so, will either of you repent?' Then the woman got up and took the oaths, and when she was about to take the fifth one; That the wrath of Allah be upon her if he speaks the truth', the people stopped her and said to her: 'It will definitely bring about Allah's curse upon you (if you are guilty).'" Ibn 'Abbas said 'So she hesitated, and recoiled so much so, that we thought that she would withdraw her denial. But she said: 'I will not dishonor my family for the rest of their days.' The Prophet (ﷺ) then said: 'Watch her, if she delivers a child with eyes that appear to have Kuhl on them, big hips, and fat shins then it is Sharik bin Sahma's child.' (Later) she gave birth to a child fitting that description. So the Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'If it had not been settled in the Book of Allah [the Mighty and Sublime], I would punish her severely

حدثنا محمد بن بشار، حدثنا محمد بن ابي عدي، حدثنا هشام بن حسان، حدثني عكرمة، عن ابن عباس، ان هلال بن امية، قذف امراته عند النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بشريك بن السحماء فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم " البينة والا حد في ظهرك " . قال فقال هلال يا رسول الله اذا راى احدنا رجلا على امراته ايلتمس البينة فجعل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول " البينة والا حد في ظهرك " . قال فقال هلال والذي بعثك بالحق اني لصادق ولينزلن في امري ما يبري ظهري من الحد فنزل : (والذين يرمون ازواجهم ولم يكن لهم شهداء الا انفسهم ) فقرا حتى بلغ : ( والخامسة ان غضب الله عليها ان كان من الصادقين ) قال فانصرف النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فارسل اليهما فجاءا فقام هلال بن امية فشهد والنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول " ان الله يعلم ان احدكما كاذب فهل منكما تايب " . ثم قامت فشهدت فلما كانت عند الخامسة : ( ان غضب الله عليها ان كان من الصادقين ) قالوا لها انها موجبة فقال ابن عباس فتلكات ونكست حتى ظننا ان سترجع فقالت لا افضح قومي ساير اليوم . فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم " ابصروها فان جاءت به اكحل العينين سابغ الاليتين خدلج الساقين فهو لشريك بن السحماء " . فجاءت به كذلك فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم " لولا ما مضى من كتاب الله عز وجل لكان لنا ولها شان " . قال ابو عيسى هذا حديث حسن غريب من هذا الوجه من حديث هشام بن حسان وهكذا روى عباد بن منصور هذا الحديث عن عكرمة عن ابن عباس عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم . ورواه ايوب عن عكرمة مرسلا ولم يذكر فيه عن ابن عباس
