Chapter on What Necessitates Discretionary Punishment, Legal Punishment, Stoning, Execution, and Exile in Adultery
وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ اَلسَّكُونِيِّ: "أَنَّ عَلِيّاً عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أُتِيَ بِرَجُلٍ أَصَابَ حَدّاً وَ بِهِ قُرُوحٌ فِي جَسَدِهِ كَثِيرَةٌ فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "أَقِرُّوهُ حَتَّى يَبْرَأَ لاَ تَنْكَئُوهَا عَلَيْهِ فَتَقْتُلُوهُ" ".
In the narration of Al-Sakuni: It is reported that Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام was brought a man who had committed an offense deserving of a legal punishment (hadd), and the man had numerous sores on his body. Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام said: "Delay the execution of the punishment until he recovers. Do not aggravate his sores, lest you kill him."
