The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : The reality is that unlawful sexual intercourse involves both the perpetrator and the one acted upon, to the extent that the one acted upon also takes pleasure and feels desire. Yes, if we speak of coercion, then this is correct: it is an aggression that must be compensated for... The right of Allah is that the fixed punishment is carried out against him, and the right of the people is that the coercion and aggression against them must be compensated for.
