Hadith.5080 - Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Abd Al-Rahman from Ubayd ibn Zurarah who said
I heard Abu Abdullah (as) say, "If a man were brought to me who had accused a Muslim slave of adultery, and we knew nothing about the slave except goodness, I would administer the legal punishment upon him - the same punishment as for a free person, except one lash less."
5080 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ: "لَوْ أُتِيتُ بِرَجُلٍ قَدْ قَذَفَ عَبْداً مُسْلِماً بِالزِّنَا لاَ نَعْلَمُ مِنْهُ إِلاَّ خَيْراً لَضَرَبْتُهُ اَلْحَدَّ حَدَّ اَلْحُرِّ إِلاَّ سَوْطاً".
