Sûrat An-Nûr, Verse 2:

The fornicatress and the fornicator, flog each of them with a hundred stripes. Let not pity withhold you in their case, in a punishment prescribed by Allâh, if you believe in Allâh and the Last Day. And let a party of the believers witness their punishment. (This punishment is for unmarried persons guilty of the above crime, but if married persons commit it (illegal sex), the punishment is to stone them to death, according to Allâh's Law).[1]

[1] (V.24:2)
a) Narrated Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم judged that the unmarried person who was guilty of illegal sexual intercourse be exiled for one year and receive the legal punishment (i.e., be flogged with one hundred stripes). (Sahih Al-Bukhâri, Vol.8, Hadith No. 819)
b) Narrated Jâbir bin 'Abdullâh Al-Ansâri رضي الله عنهما: A man from the tribe of Bani Aslam came to Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم and informed him that he had committed illegal sexual intercourse and he bore witness four times against himself. Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم ordered him to be stoned to death as he was a married person. (Sahih Al Bukhari, Vol.8, Hadith No.805).


Tafsir al-Jalalayn
http://www.altafsir.com/Tafasir.asp?tMadhNo=0&tTafsirNo=74&tSoraNo=24...

Sura 24 An-Nûr, Verse 2:

As for the fornicatress and the fornicator, that is, of those not in wedlock — because those [in wedlock] are stoned according to the Sunna (the al [in al-zāniya, 'the fornicatress', and al-zānī, 'the fornicator'] according to some mentioned [opinions] is a relative [particle]; the clause [al-zāniyatu wa'l-zānī] is a subject, and because of its similarity to a conditional, the fā' has been inserted into the predicate, which is [the following, fa'jlidū]): strike each of them a hundred lashes, [a hundred] strikes (one says jaladahu to mean daraba jildahu, 'he struck him on the skin'). According to the Sunna, in addition to this [punishment] there is also banishment for a whole year. The slave, however, receives half of the mentioned [punishment]. And do not let any pity for them overcome you in God's religion, that is to say, in [the fulfilment of] His rulings, by disregarding any part of their prescribed punishment, if you believe in God and the Last Day, namely, the Day of Resurrection: in this [statement] there is an incitement to [abide by] what was [mentioned] before the conditional [above] and it also constitutes the response to the latter, or [at least is] an indication of the response to it. And let their punishment, the flogging, be witnessed by a group of the believers — some say [that this should be a group of] three; some say four, as in the number of witnesses testifying to an act of fornication.


Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Book 82:
Punishment of Disbelievers at War with Allah and His Apostle
http://www.cmje.org/religious-texts/hadith/bukhari/082-sbt.php

Volume 8, Book 82, Number 816:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:

'Umar said, "I am afraid that after a long time has passed, people may say, "We do not find the Verses of the Rajam (stoning to death) in the Holy Book," and consequently they may go astray by leaving an obligation that Allah has revealed. Lo! I confirm that the penalty of Rajam be inflicted on him who commits illegal sexual intercourse, if he is already married and the crime is proved by witnesses or pregnancy or confession." Sufyan added, "I have memorized this narration in this way." 'Umar added, "Surely Allah's Apostle carried out the penalty of Rajam, and so did we after him."

Nice. Islam will wipe out the whores, sluts, bastards and filth of society and make people think not just twice, but a hundred times about comitting indecent acts and sins.

Ofc the sluts of YouTube are here barking about it. Clearly they want a corrupt society...

[Wrath0fKhan]

@notionSlave

"filth of society"

Exchanging/selling this world for a fantasy world (Quran 9:111) evidently creates lots of filth in this world. Holy f*cking corruption. Indeed...

[DrShaym]

2:40, there are a lot of ways to "humiliate" somebody that don't require rocks, lady.

[Wrath0fKhan]

@DrShaym

"lot of ways"

Yea... Cutting off limbs, heads, banishment, flogging, throwing from a cliff and then stoning. Im sure there are other non-lethal, even in a sense non-corporal ways of humiliation, too.

[papakilatube]

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone...

[Wrath0fKhan]

@papakilatube

"They" actually found a solution to that kind of problem as well. They will let the children do the "job". :(

[95sour]

Down with the rotten religion .

[TheDriveMaster]

This barbaric people follow the only "sacred" religious book in the world that has political agenda, social agenda, even law is there! They are incapable of progressing, and to cope with modern world. In the end they expect to go to a big orgy, they call heaven. If satan made a religion, that religion is islam.

[gcdcjccc]

a radical islamist and a sick and disgusting woman

[ripleygq]

ISLAM: International Society of Liars And Murderers. (aka CRIMINALS). Islam means CRIMINALS in english.

[StuffUser101]

You guys hate the religion and not all the followers right?

@time0is0a0myth The 13 women Mohammed 'married' were not the only women he'd have been using. What happened to Mohammed? He was married to one woman for 20 years and became a successful and highly respected trader. After her death he became a slaver and robber with multiple wives including a child. The rest of his 'career' was that of a bandit slaver. Allah was Mohammed's plaything and puppet. Islam is a slaving ideology and 18 MILLION Africans were to be enslaved to build the Islamic Empire.

[ritchloui]

Oh dear, she says about stoning, oh well it's a bit hard to talk about it. Well, I think it's a lot harder to be on the receiving end. WTF. Presumably to even talk about it is anti-Islamic or racist. What a joke, she so desperately wants to pretend it's not really Koranic, but it is Islamic. Ahem. It is Islamic, ie fascist and a disgrace in the 21st century. What does anyone expect from an ideology founded by a child molesting bandit? Oh, is that racist or just stating the obvious?

[thescorpionking2020]

islam is retarded
