Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In some countries, stoning is carried out by firing a gun. Is this permissible? He says: May Allah reward you. In this time, stoning is carried out by firing a gun.

Answer:
No, this is not permissible. This is killing, not stoning. This is considered killing. The fornicator is killed, and the one who is stoned is killed, but he is killed with stones. He is killed with stones and not with anything else, not with a sword and not with a bullet. Yes.
