Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person commits a major sin from among the major sins, does he hand himself over so that the hadd (fixed punishment) is applied to him?

Answer:
He should cover his sin with Allah’s covering and repent to Allah, Mighty and Majestic. This is better for him: to repent sincerely between himself and Allah, and not to expose himself. Yes.
