No Hadd on a Minor But He Guarantees What He Stole
assalam, the 38 verse of the 5th surah in the quran is "[As for] the thief, the male and the female, amputate their hands in recompense for what they committed as a deterrent [punishment] from Allah . And Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise." End quote. If I was a young person like in 5th grade or younger and I used to steal, does this punishment also.. More

Whether unintentional penetration constitutes fornication
I have been searching for my problem online for many weeks, but I could not find anything related to it. That is why I am posting a new thread. As far as I have searched, I came to the conclusion that fornication only includes the willful penetration of the female private part by the male one. I have a girlfriend, and we had it decided among ourselves.. More

Minimum value of theft that entails cutting thief's hand
Assalaamu alaykum, Shaykh. Recently, I read on your website about the prescribed punishment for theft. I came to know that the scholars differ regarding the minimum value of theft which entails cutting one's hand. According to the Hanafis, the minimum value is 10 dirhams, because at that time, the value of a shield was 1 dinar, or 10 dirhams. On the.. More

No Hadd on woman who incites rape
I know that there is a Hadd (prescribed corporal punishment)punishment for the rapist, but is there any punishment for the women who is raped? If she is raped due to not wearing the hijab, traveling without a Mahram (permanently unmarriageable kin), going to a non-Mahram, going out the house without her guardian's permission, or any other blameworthy..

In Islam, sometimes crucificition is part of the disciplinary actions, does the crucifiction come after the killing in order to display what happens to criminals, or are they alive when they are crucified in order to illustrate it in an even stronger way?

Rapee's right over rapist
Assalaamu alaykum. What is the ruling on a 14-year-old boy who used to rub up against his smaller cousin. He ejaculated sometimes, so he was mature. He ended up penetrating her, which is considered rape. He says that he knew that he was doing wrong. The victim remembered this and accused him now, almost 15 years later, as the victim was very small when.. More

Rape and fornication are totally different categories in Islamic law
In another fatwa, you have basically put the act of rape under the category of zina (fornication). But rape and zina are clearly not the same thing. With zina, it is two people who both agree to have intercourse together. And the crime for that is known. With rape, however, it is one person who forces himself upon another person who did not consent.. More

Hadd of zina with regards to non-Muslims
Concerning stoning, it is said that Imam Abu Hanifah and Imam Malik said that it is a condintion for the muhsan(married person)to be Muslim. Is it true that in an Islamic state Dhimmis (a non-Muslim living under the Muslim rule)will not be stoned if they fornicate but will lashed instead? Also, if they are not married, then they are given a warning.. More

Punishment of consumer of alcohol
Assalaam alaykum. My question is about Islam. I know that there are hudud (plural of hadd: corporal punishment determined by Islamic Law) punishments prescribed by the sharia in an Islamic State Caliphate. I heard that in order to be punished for zina (illegal sexual intercourse), there must be four witnesses or a confession. My question is: what if.. More

Failing to produce four witnesses in accusation of rape
Assalaamu alaykum dear Brother in Islam. I have the following query: If a woman accuses someone of rape while she does not have four witnesses and the accused does not confess having committed rape or adultery, will the woman be punished for slander of adultery (had-e-quzuf)? Please answer with evidence from the Sunnah. I have researched lots of Fiqh.. More

Repetition of zina not condition to implement the hadd
Assalaamu alaykum. About the verse about whipping the one who fornicates, I heard a person quote Ibn ʻAshoor,saying that the noun shows that this is only for people who did it over and over again, not just once. Is this interpretation true? Please do not send me another fatwa unless it answers my question.

Ruling on whether repentance waives hadd of theft
Assalaamu alaykum. I saw your opinion on the ruling on a thief. You used the verse (5:38) that explains to cut off a thief's right hand and some hadiths. However, you ended up with a wrong opinion. You should be ashamed of Allaah if you did not bother checking the verse after it, (5:39), which says, {But whosoever repents after his crime and does righteous.. More

Minimum value of stolen property that entails penalty for theft
What is the minimum value of robbed goods for which one's hand is amputated in Islam? I found a hadith where it says a quarter of an Islamic dinar or three dirhams. I calculated it with dinar. I found that one dinar is a coin of pure gold weighing 4.25 grams, so a quarter ( ¼ ) is 1.0625 gram of gold. In my country, the value of 1 gram of gold, today,.. More
