Thwarting of indecency -2

Chapter “Nuur” – (Light) - 24

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.

 (I seek refuge in Allaah from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

Like this, mutual relationship of Believing man or woman is not correct with any idolater or idolatress, because several social complications arise due to it. The reason is that the standard of morality of the both is separate from each other. Therefore besides the fear of disputes between the twain and becoming of the life a burden, many difficulties concerning the descendants come before. It has been explained also in Chapter two. Marriage relation of believing man with idolatress or idolater’s such relation with believing woman is lawfully forbidden in Islam. However, if the nuptial knot of any adulterer is tied with any chaste woman or any chaste man with any adulteress, then its legal condition is that this case will be produced before the judiciary, and if they do not repent then they will be separated by the judiciary.

It is found from the above mentioned verse that possibility of adultery in Islamic Society is among the unmarried youngster male and female. Therefore, the punishment for its prevention has been prescribed in the verse before under reference. After marriage; there is no chance of fornication in Islamic Society. Therefore if married men and women are involved in adultery, then it can be a rare case. So, no limit of punishment in this regard has been mentioned clearly in Holy Qur’an, as limit of punishment concerning sodomy has not been described evidently, because any of these both sins is entirely against the morality and dignity of the Muslims. Evil of the both sins has been narrated clearly, but the punishment against each of both sins has been left upon the judgment of the Just Ruler.

Accordingly, such Just Rulers, in whose understanding and justice there is no doubt, have fixed the punishment of above mentioned both sins after proof that they should be slain by annoyance. Giving such kind of punishment has also been transcribed by reliable sources. Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) himself enforced the punishment of stoning to death, for married man and woman after lawful proof of their sin, according to the commandment of Torah. After that, Omar (may Allaah be pleased with him) and other rulers; not only gave judgment of slaying to the criminal of sodomy, married adulterer and adulteress, but they issued instructions practically in this regard. Reason of this severe punishment is that destroying the thing utterly, which is an adversary for the humanity and enemy of the modesty, can keep the society purified from wrong deeds. There is no need of so-called remission, mercy or kindness in keeping the society purified.
