حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَحَجَّاجٌ، قَالا: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عُبَيْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، قَالَ:، حَجَّ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَخْطُبَ النَّاسَ خُطْبَةً، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ: إِنَّهُ قَدِ اجْتَمَعَ عِنْدَكَ رَعَاعُ النَّاسِ، فَأَخِّرْ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى، ، تَأْتِيَ الْمَدِينَةَ. فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ دَنَوْتُ (١) مِنْهُ قَرِيبًا مِنَ الْمِنْبَرِ، فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: وَإِنَّ نَاسًا يَقُولُونَ: مَا بَالُ الرَّجْمِ، وَإِنَّمَا فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ الْجَلْدُ؟ وَقَدْ رَجَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَجَمْنَا بَعْدَهُ، وَلَوْلا أَنْ يَقُولُوا: أَثْبَتَ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ مَا لَيْسَ فِيهِ، لَأَثْبَتُّهَا كَمَا أُنْزِلَتْ (٢) .،

it was narrated that `AbdurRahman bin `Awf said:
`Umar bin al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه) did Haji and wanted to deliver a speech to the people. ‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Awf said: The uneducated people are gathered around you, so delay it until you come to Madinah. When he came to Madinah, I got close to him when he was on the minbar and I heard him saying. Some people are saying, Why should we stone [adulterers]? In the book of Allah it only mentions flogging But the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stoned adulterers] and we stoned [them] after him. Were it not that people would say, You have inserted something into the Book of Allah that is not part of it, I would have inserted it as it was revealed.
