What is the punishment for Zina? Do you suffer in this lifetime?

Question

Okay I just had a question about people invlvolved in this sorta thing (THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME) Like say they're brought up as good muslims and are educated about Islam but they get into fornication with different women but dun fear Allah and kept on doing it. Would they get azab in this lifetime? I think if they've committed one of the biggest sins without even thinking twice about it that they need some kinda punishment. I know it's like 80 lashes but you can't do that in the U.S so what do you think Allah would do to them in this lifetime? Would they most likely be miserable? would they be messed up psychologically when they're married?

Answer 1

I thought only God judges?

Look at your own faults before judging others.

Answer 2

PENALTY OF DEATH.

Answer 3

No it's 100 lashes in the Qur'an for unmarried men and unmarried women who fornicate.  

The punishment for adultery is to be stoned to death for married men and married women who have 4 witnesses to prove the claim.

Answer 4

Salam for you.Zina in line with Qur'an and hadits should be punished by stone throwing  in front of public until death for married man and woman while for unmarried man and woman should be punished by whipping 100 times witnessed by public and then be extorted  or exiled for one year. In the USA the zina persons are free based on the mankind they are free to do what they want without force.In the Qur'an,Allah could give punishment to them on this  earth with azab such as by natural disaster floods,earth quakes,storms,diseases (hiv/aids)etc and if on this earth left unpunished it will be punished on the final judgement day in the life after death on resurrection day.No one will let unpunished for all his/her bad doings  or unrewarded for all good doings

Answer 5

Such people,both men and women,who are not honest while entering into a relationship will suffer whole life from feel of gulity.

Afterall,they did it knowingly.I wish they get punished before getting married,bcoz otherwise,it will affect the innocent spouse too..

Answer 6

if the case of Zina went to the Islamic court, then it's 100 slashes for the unmarried person. but if Allah Does not want to punish this person in the after life, then Allah may punish him in this life or forgive without punishment. and whoever go to Haj with a pure performance all his sins will be forgiven as he just came out new from his mother. and it's recommended in Islam that whoever commit a sin is to hide it and don't tell people about it. and Allah is merciful all forgiven.

Answer 7

Any punishment given to those whose engage in zina will not be sufficient.  There is worst punishment for them in the Hereafter.

But, when the persons concerned repents earnestly Allah will pardon their sins.  Allah is "Gafoor (Most forgiving)".  Allah is also "Shadeedul Iqab (One who gives stringent punishment)" for those who do not repent.

But those who engages in Zina frequently are likely to be afflicted by AIDS in this world.

Answer 8

Assalam O Alaikum

First of all it must be understood that the punishment of fornication (zina), according to the Qur’an, is flogging the criminal with a hundred stripes, humiliating him and prohibiting his marriage with chaste women:  

well Allah had laid some wrldly punishments also

in this case Quran says

024.026

Alkhabeethatu lilkhabeetheena waalkhabeethoona lilkhabeethati waalttayyibatu lilttayyibeena waalttayyiboona lilttayyibati ola-ika mubarraoona mimma yaqooloona lahum maghfiratun warizqun kareemun

YUSUFALI: Women impure are for men impure, and men impure for women impure and women of purity are for men of purity, and men of purity are for women of purity: these are not affected by what people say: for them there is forgiveness, and a provision honourable.

so thay have to suffer and find some one like themselves,

May Allah Protect us

Answer 9
