The Ruling on Zina and Its Right
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Zina involves a right belonging to Allah and a right belonging to the servants. So how is one rewarded for zina, and how is the right of the servants restored? Is repentance alone sufficient, or is Hajj necessary?
Answer:
Zina is a right belonging to Allah; it is not a right belonging to the servants. It is a right belonging to Allah, not to the servants, as the scholar added, because it is an encroachment upon the sanctities of Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He). If we said it were a right belonging to the servants, and the woman or her guardian permitted it, this would be permissible. But it is not a right belonging to the servants; it is a right belonging to Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He). Yes.
