Prevention from immodesty -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)
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.
