Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. It is mentioned regarding some of the jurists (may Allah have mercy on them) that a woman who commits zina is tested to know her repentance, and someone is sent to proposition her. Is this statement correct?
Answer:
This is not correct, because there is a fear that if she responds to the one propositioning her, he may have intercourse with her, for Satan is present. So this statement is not correct, and it is not permissible. However, her repentance becomes apparent and is known by that.
