{{Quote|{{Bukhari|3|49|860}}|Narrated Abu Huraira and Zaid bin Khalid Al-Juhani: A bedouin came and said, "O Allah's Apostle! Judge between us according to Allah's Laws." His opponent got up and said, "He is right. Judge between us according to Allah's Laws." The bedouin said, "My son was a laborer working for this man, and he committed illegal sexual intercourse with his wife. The people told me that my son should be stoned to death; so, in lieu of that, I paid a ransom of one hundred sheep and a slave girl to save my son. Then I asked the learned scholars who said, "Your son has to be lashed one-hundred lashes and has to be exiled for one year." The Prophet said, "No doubt I will judge between you according to Allah's Laws. '''The slave-girl and the sheep are to go back to you, and your son will get a hundred lashes and one year exile."''' He then addressed somebody, "O Unais! '''go to the wife of this (man) and stone her to death" So, Unais went and stoned her to death.'''}}

===Follow the legal process when you find a man with your wife, not vigilantism===
On contrast to the above hadiths, the following indicates that the legal process should be followed in the case of zina and not vilgilantism.
{{Quote|{{Muslim|9|3571}}|Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported that Sa'd b. Ubada (Allah be pleased with him) said:
Messenger of Allah, if I were to find with my wife a man, should I not touch him before bringing four witnesses? Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: Yes. He said: By no means. By Him Who has sent you with the Truth, I would hasten with my sword to him before that. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: Listen to what your chief says. He is jealous of his honour, I am more jealous than he (is) and God is more jealous than I.
