Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh (may Allah have mercy on him), what is the difference between the one who accuses and the witness to zina in establishing the hadd?

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
What is the difference between the one who accuses and the witness to zina?

The Shaykh:
If the witnesses do not reach the required number, the accuser is a qadhf (one who falsely accuses of zina), and the hadd is obligatory upon him.
