The questioner:
[An-Nur 24:2].
The Shaykh:
They attend the execution of the punishment; it is not done in secret, but openly. A group of believers attends, because this serves as a stronger deterrent. If a group attends and spreads the news, it becomes a deterrent.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. May Allah reward you. Say.
The Shaykh:
Rather, the matter is witnessed.
The questioner:
Some say: May Allah reward you. This is from the supplications for them and seeking forgiveness.
The Shaykh:
No, it is to expose the matter so that it returns to the people. So that it returns.
The questioner:
If he intends to expose them and the fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) is greater than the exposure, if he intends to expose those who want to commit the lewd act, fearing that there will be a great fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) in it.
The Shaykh:
And by exposing them, he prevents them from proceeding with it. He prevents them from proceeding with it.
And let a group of the believers witness their punishment.
