Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, why is it forbidden to dig a pit for the one stoned to death for zina, when this is more secure and better for him in his killing?
Answer:
Because it is not established that a pit was dug for him, and if it is not established, then it is not prescribed for him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stoned [them] and it is not mentioned that a pit was dug for the woman from al-Makhzum.
