Jami at-Tirmidhi 3144 (Book 47, Hadith 196) #28793
Nine Commandments from the Prophet ﷺ

SUMMARY: This hadith is about a Jew and his companion who went to the Prophet ﷺ to ask him questions about Allah. The Prophet ﷺ then gave them nine commandments, which included not associating anything with Allah, not committing unlawful intercourse, not taking a life which Allah has made prohibited, not stealing, etc. He also gave them an additional commandment specifically for Jews - to not violate the Sabbath.

Narrated Safwan bin 'Assal Al-Muradi: "A Jew said to his companion: 'Accompany us to this Prophet'. So his companion said: 'Do not say: "Prophet," for if he hears you calling him a Prophet then he will be happy'. So they went to the Prophet to question him about Allah, the Most High, saying: And indeed we gave Musa nine clear signs (17:101). So the Messenger of Allah said to them: 'Do not associate anything with Allah, nor commit unlawful intercourse, nor take a life which Allah has made prohibited, except for what is required (in the law), nor steal, nor practice magic, nor hasten to damage the reputation of an innocent person in front of a ruler, so that he will be killed, nor consume Riba, nor falsely accuse the chaste woman, nor turn to flee on the day of the march (ie flee from war)'. - Shu'bah was in doubt - 'and for you Jews particularly, to not violate the Sabbath'." He said: "So they kissed his hands and his feet and they said: 'We bear witness that you are a Prophet'. So he said: 'Then what prevents you from accepting Islam?' They said: 'Because Dawud supplicated to his Lord, that his offspring never be devoid of Prophets, and we feared that if we follow you then the Jews will kill us'."
