Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: O our Shaykh, is the married adulterer who is to be stoned required to be flogged one hundred lashes before the stoning?

Answer:
Yes, it is reported in some hadiths that one hundred lashes and stoning are prescribed, and 'Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) did this. However, the majority hold that stoning is sufficient, and that the flogging is included in the stoning. This is the position upon which practice is based. Yes.
