Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man who commits zina confesses four times, mentioning the reality of the intercourse, and does not retract his confession, and the woman does not confess, is the hadd carried out on her, or is it dropped from her? What establishes the hadd upon her?
Answer:
His words establish it upon him; it is established upon him. He is not investigated regarding her, and it is not said, "Tell us who she is." He is not asked about this. Yes.
