Presents: Adultery and Fornication (Al-zina)

إن الحمد لله، نعمده و نسعنه و نستغفره. و أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له وأن محمد عبده ورسوله.
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
In sha Allah, I shall be treating Al-Zina (Adultery & fornication)
As we all know in our society today that it has become very rampant that even there is no limit to the age
What is Zina?
Zina means sexual intercourse between a man and a woman not married to each other.
It's immaterial whether one or both parties have their own spouses living or are unmarried
It's also immaterial whether it's with the consent of the parties.
The word Zina applies to both Adultery (whether one or both parties are married to a person or persons other than the persons involved in the sexual intercourse) and fornication where both parties are unmarried
Islam considers Zina not only as a great sin but also a an act which opens the gate for many other shameful acts, which destroys the very basis of the family, which leads to quarrels and murderers, which ruins reputation and property and which spreads numerous diseases, both physical and spiritual.
Therefore, the Holy Qur'an enjoins upon people:
ولاتقربوا الزنى إنه كان فاحشة و ساء سبيلاً
"do not come nearer to Adultery for it's a shameful (deed) and an evil, opening the road (to other evil)"
The Prophet (S. A. W) has declared Zina to be the greatest sin after Shirk (associating partner with Allah SWT). He says:
"There is no sin after Shirk greater in the eyes of Allah than a drop of semen which a man places in the womb which is not lawful for him"
There is another Hadith which places Zina next after Shirk and the killing of one's child for fear of poetry. It says
Pls permit me to the translation of Hadith only
Sahih Bukhari (Limits and Punishments set by Allah (Hudood) - 41)

Narrated `Abdullah bin Mas`ud, I said, "O Allah's Messenger (pbuh)! Which is the biggest sin?" He said, "To set up rivals to Allah by worshipping others though He alone has created you." I asked, "What is next?" He said, "To kill your child lest it should share your food." I asked, "What is next?" He said, "To commit illegal sexual intercourse with the wife of your neighbor.
There are some other ahadith in which murder is considered to be the greater sin as compared to Zina
Be that as it may, Zina is undoubtedly a very great sin.
If it's allowed to go unchecked it may disrupt the social fabric of Ummah.
For this, severe punishment is reserved for this major crime in the penal law of Islam and great torments for adulterers in the hereafter
The Prophet S.A.W is reported as saying that the dwellers of hell will have the punishment of smelling the most pungent smell emanating from the private parts of an adulterer. Subhanallahi!
He is further reported to have said that if a person commits Zina, Allah emerge scorpions and snakes to trouble him until the day of Resurrection.
Let's stay far away from it.
Islam abhors Zina and for that end enjoins upon Muslims to keep away from all those satanic things which lead a man to Adultery.
The first step towards Adultery is provided by having a passionate look at an unknown woman.
This is prohibited by the Prophet S.A.W in following Hadith:
النظر إلى النساء الاجنبيات من الكبائر
"Even to look at an unknown woman (with a passionate look) is also a sin"
Other steps towards Adultery are prohibited by the Prophet S.A.W in another Hadith
Sahih Muslim (The Book of Destiny - 33)

Narrated , Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (pbuh) as saying. Allah fixed the very portion of adultery which a man will indulge in. There would be no escape from it. The adultery of the eye is the lustful look and the adultery of the ears is listening to voluptuous (song or talk) and the adultery of the tongue is licentious speech and the adultery of the hand is the lustful grip (embrace) and the adultery of the feet is to walk (to the place) where he intends to commit adultery and the heart yearns and desires which he may or may not put into effect.
I will stop here tonight.
In sha Allah will continue from "the punishment of Zina" next week.
May Allah SWT come to aid so that we can abstain from it
It's not easy but Allah's mercy it's very easy.
May He SWT saves us from the punishment of the grave, from the fitna of live and death, And from the punishment of the torments of hell fire.
Subhanaka Allahumma wabi amdikh ashadu an lailaha anta Astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayhi.
Assalaamu alaykum Warahmatullaahi Wabarkaatuh
