The Ruling on Ta'zir and Its Reaching the Level of Execution
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Peace be upon you. The questioner asks: Can ta'zir (discretionary punishment) reach the level of execution, especially in the case of one who establishes a gathering for corruption through zina (unlawful sexual intercourse), liwat (sodomy), and drinking khamr (intoxicants)?
Answer:
Ta'zir varies according to the crimes. It begins with words, reprimand, and admonition, and ends with execution. If the evil of the crime can only be averted by execution, then he is executed, because his ruling is the ruling of the aggressor.
