Hadith 117
۞
31-117 According to the same documentation, Ali ibn Abi Talib (a.s.) said, “The Prophet (S) was told that a woman had committed adultery while she claimed that she was a virgin. Then the Prophet (S) asked some women to check her up. They checked her hymen and found her to be a virgin. Then the Prophet (S) said, “I cannot beat one upon whom there is Divine Seal.” He (a.s.) accepted the women’s testimony in this case and considered it correct.”
