Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If a man and his wife engage in mutual oath-swearing, and the woman admits to the act after the oath-swearing, is the fixed punishment that was established against her carried out?
The Shaykh : The correct view is that it is carried out against her.
The presenter : Yes.
The Shaykh : This is what the adulterer faces, because the adulterer does not confess, nor is there ever a witness established against him, and he does not demand it.
