Is the ruling for one sentenced to death by a fixed punishment (hadd) the same as for one who has reached the throat in terms of the acceptance of his repentance?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : In this case, he is facing death.

The questioner : Yes, why did we differ? Because he says that this does not benefit him... he has reached the throat by a ruling, like one who has reached the throat.

The Shaykh : No, he does not say that he is in the ruling of the one who says this.

The questioner : I am asking: does this person, upon whom the hadd is to be carried out now, have the ruling of the one who has reached the throat, or not? Does his repentance benefit him or not?

The Shaykh : He means... something, I do not know what he means.

The questioner : No, the hadith of Usamah; I know that the issue is outside of that.

The Shaykh : No, he is saying something and attributing it to you.

The questioner : Ah?

The Shaykh : In the name of Allah, this is in the ruling of the one whose soul has reached the throat. It is clear that it is not so, but the opposite is attributed to you, and your approval may have been silence.

The questioner : agreement

The Shaykh : I am the one asking you, may Allah bless you. He is asking, but we do not bind him to what may appear to you, unless he approves of it. So I say that he does not leave the listening people to say, "He approved of what was attributed to him."

The questioner : My question is: does he have the ruling of the one at the throat, or not? This one who has been presented to the sword and will be killed—is qisas (retaliation) to be carried out upon him?

The Shaykh : This is not it.

The questioner : This question

The Shaykh : Where is the throat? There is no throat, and he is certainly before the throat. So then...

The questioner : The verse regarding Pharaoh confused me.

The Shaykh : No, the answer to the verse has already been given.

The questioner : Okay, another question, O Shaykh.
