Re: The concept of being Stoned to Death
Rajm in Islam.
On this issue, th e modernist munaafiqeen *are tacitly proclaiming that Allah Azza Wa Jal and Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) have commanded an act of barbarism — *Nauthubillaah!
The pleasure of the kuffaar cannot be attained without submission to kufr. Thus the Qur'aan Majeed warning the Mu'mineen, states :
**“Never will the Yahood and Nasaaraa be pleased with you as long as you do not follow their cult.” **
The claim thatt *Rajm *is not an Islamic injunction is kufr which expels such a believer from the fold of Islam.
*(1 ) *Hadhrat Umar Ibn Khattaab (radhiyallahu anhu) said:
*“Verily, Allah Ta'ala sent Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) with the Haqq (Truth), and He revealed the K itaab (Qur'aan) to him. Among the (aayaat) which Alla h had revealed to him was the aayat of Rajm. I recited it, understood it and memorized it. Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) executed Rajm, and we (the Sahaabah) after him executed Rajm. I fear that due to the long dur a- tion of time on people they may say: ‘We do not find Rajm in the Kitaab of Allah.' Thus, they will go astray by aba n- doning an injunction which Allah Ta'ala had revealed *
*(Know) that Rajm is incumbent on the one who commits zina when he or she is (of the quality of) Ihsaan (i.e. married), when evid ence has been established or there is pregnancy or confession.” (Bukhaari and Mu s lim) *
(2) Hadhrat Ibnus Saamit (radhiyallahu anhu) — a Sahaabi —*narrated: “Verily, the Nabi (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said : *
‘Take from me! Take from me! Verily Allah has made a way for them (adulteresses) — (The punishment) for an unmarried p e r- son with an unmarried person is 100 lashes and banishment of one year; for married persons it is 100 lashes and Rajm.”*(Muslim and Abu Daawood) *
(3) “Sha'bi narrated that on the occasion when Ali Ibn Taali b *(radhiyallahu anhu) executed Rajm on a woman on the Day of Jumuah, he said: ‘I applied Rajm on her by the Sunnat of Ras u- lullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam).” (Bukhaari) *
(4 ) “Jaabir Bin Abdullah Ansaari (radhiyallahu anhu) na r- rated that a man from (the tribe of) Aslam came to Rasulullah *(sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and said that he had committed zina. He testified against himself four times. Then Rasulullah *(sallallahu alayhi wasallam) ordered that he be stoned. Rajm was then inflicted on him. He was a married pe r- son.” (Bukhaari)
*All Authorities report that Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) had commanded the infliction of Rajm *. The Sahaabah had inflicte d *Rajm *during the lifetime of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), and the Khulafa - e - Raashideen had done the same during their respective khilaafats.
*A l - Mughni *of Ibn Qudaamah, the Hambali authority:
“The compulsion of *Rajm *for a married adulterer and adulteress is the view of all the People of Ilm among the Sahaabah, the Taabieen and those Ulama who followed after them in all the lands (of Islam). We do not know of any opposing view except that of the Khawaarij.
As for us (the Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama'ah ) *R a j m *is proven on the authority of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) by way of his statement and his practice in such narrations which rese m- bl e *Mutawaatar . *There is consensus of the Ashaab (Sahaabah) of Rsulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) on *Rajm. *Verily, Allah Ta' ala had revealed it ( *Rajm *) in His Kitaab. However, only its written text has been abrogated, not it s *huk m *(effectiveness as law). ”
Br., why don't you read the Quranic ayat I quoted. It puts all claims to rest. It does not get in clearer or in black and white than that.
Let me ask you this question and every muslim on this thread:
If the punishment for a crime is described in the Quran and a punishment for the same crime is also described in hadith, which one will you follow?
