 Zinaa - Gunaah-e-Kabeera
Dear Brother, I would advise you to give up the action of illegal intercourse, you are mature, 33 yrs of age, these things don't suits you as you have the wisdom to decide between right and wrong. May Allah show you the right way!
Allaah subhanahu wa ta'ala says: "And come not near to the
unlawful sexual intercourse. Verily, it is a Faahishah (i.e. anything that transgresses
its limits (a great sin)), and an evil way (that leads one to Hell unless Allaah forgives
him)." [Al-Qur'aan 17:32]
"The woman and the man guilty of illegal sexual
intercourse, flog each of them with a hundred stripes. Let not pity withhold you in their
case, in a punishment prescribed by Allaah, if you believe in Allaah and the Last Day. And
let a party of the believers witness their punishment." [Al-Qur'aan 24:2]
The Jurists say that the last verse quoted above is the
punishment for fornicators who have never been married. If a person was ever married
before committing the crime of Zina (illegal Sexual Intercourse), he or she is to be
punished by stoning to death. This is established by the practise of the Prophet
sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam. If
they are not punished in this world and die without repentance (by regretting, leaving the
sin, and so forth), they will be punished in the Fire with whips of fire.
In a tradition transmitted by Bukhaaree, on the authority of
Samurah ibn Jundab radiallaahu 'anhu, concerning a dream of the Prophet
sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam in which the Prophet sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam
was
accompanied by Jibreel alayhis salaam and Meekaa'eel, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alayhi
wa sallam said: "We went on
and arrived near a pit which was like an oven, out of which we could hear cries. We
glanced into it and saw naked men and women, who cried out when the flames reached them
from below. I asked, "Who are these, O Jibreel?" He replied: "Males and
females who have committed fornication." [vol.9, p.138, no.171]
In explaining the meaning of the verse concerning Hell, "It
has seven gates, for each of those gates is a (special) class (of sinners) assigned."
[Al-Qur'aan 15:44]; 'Ataa says: "The most severe of these gates in terms of heat,
pain, sorrow, and stinking air is the gate for the doers of fornication, who did it (even)
after knowing the awfulness of it."
