حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرٌو

أَنَّ بُكَيْرًا، حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا جَالِسٌ، عِنْدَ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ إِذْ جَاءَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ جَابِرٍ فَحَدَّثَ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ فَقَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ، سَمِعَ أَبَا بُرْدَةَ الأَنْصَارِيَّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «لَا تَجْلِدُوا فَوْقَ عَشْرَةِ أَسْوَاطٍ إِلاَّ فِي حَدٍّ مِنْ حُدُودِ اللَّهِ»

I heard the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) saying, “Do not flog anyone more than ten stripes except if he is involved in a crime necessitating Allah’s legal Punishment.”

আবূ বুরদা আনসারী (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমি নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-কে বলতে শুনেছি যে, আল্লাহর নির্দিষ্ট হদসমূহের কোন হদ ছাড়া অন্য ক্ষেত্রে দশ বেত্রাঘাতের অধিক মারা যাবে না। [৬৮৪৮; মুসলিম ২৯/৯, হাঃ ১৭০৮, আহমাদ ১৬৪৮৬]

ہم سے یحییٰ بن سلیمان نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے کہا مجھ سے ابن وہب نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے کہا مجھ کو عمرو نے خبر دی، ان سے بکیر نے بیان کیا کہ میں سلیمان بن یسار کے پاس بیٹھا ہوا تھا کہ عبدالرحمٰن بن جابر آئے اور سلیمان بن یسار سے بیان کیا پھر سلیمان بن یسار ہماری طرف متوجہ ہوئے اور انہوں نے کہا کہ مجھ سے عبدالرحمٰن بن جابر نے بیان کیا ہے کہ ان سے ان کے والد نے بیان کیا اور انہوں نے ابوبردہ انصاری رضی اللہ عنہ سے سنا۔

انہوں نے بیان کیا کہ میں نے نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے سنا، نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ حدود اللہ میں سے کسی حد کے سوا کسی سزا میں دس کوڑے سے زیادہ کی سزا نہ دو۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Yahya bin Sulaiman] telah menceritakan kepadaku [Ibnu Wahb] telah mengabarkan kepadaku [Amru] bahwa [Bukair] menceritakan kepadanya, dia berkata; ketika kami sedang duduk-duduk di dekat [Sulaiman bin Yasar] datanglah [Abdurrahman bin Jabir], dan dia menceritakan kepada Sulaiman bin Yasar, kemudian Sulaiman bin Yasar menghadap ke kami dan berkata; Abdurrahman bin Jabir telah menceritakan kepadaku; bahwa [bapaknya] telah menceritakan kepadanya, bahwasanya dia telah mendengar [Abu Burdah Al Anshari] berkata; aku mendengar Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "janganlah kalian menjilid diatas sepuluh cambukan, kecuali dalam salah satu hukuman had Allah

Ebu Burde el-Ensari'nin nakline göre Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem Allah'ın tayin ettiği hallerden birinde olmadıkça hiçbir kimseye on kamçıdan fazla vurmayınız" buyurmuştur

Sahih al-Bukhari 6850, Book 86, Limits and Punishments set by Allah (Hudood), Hadith 72. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade flogging anyone more than ten lashes except in case of committing sins. This does not refer to punishments where a specific number of lashes, strikes, or a penalty have been prescribed by the Legislator. The meaning here is that disciplinary beating, such as flogging a wife or child, should not exceed ten lashes.

What it teaches

  • The limits set by Allah Almighty, which He has commanded or prohibited, have deterrent punishments, which are either decreed by the Legislator or left to the discretion of the ruler based on what he deems beneficial.
  • Disciplinary action should be light, just enough to guide and intimidate, and should not exceed ten lashes if needed. It is preferable; however, to discipline them without beating, relying instead on direction, teaching, guidance, and encouragement, as this approach is more likely to be accepted and fosters gentleness in teaching. Circumstances vary greatly in this regard, so one should choose what is most suitable.
