[Machine] "The fornicator and the fornicatress, flog each of them with a hundred stripes. Let not pity for them withhold you in their case, in a punishment prescribed by Allah, if you believe in Allah and the Last Day. And let a party of the believers witness their punishment. The adulterer marries not but an adulteress or a Mushrikah, and the adulteress none marries her except an adulterer or a Mushrik. Such a thing is forbidden to the believers." Ibn Uyaynah said: "Pity is to be shown at the time of carrying out the punishment."

{الزَّانِيَةُ وَالزَّانِي فَاجْلِدُوا كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا مِائَةَ جَلْدَةٍ وَلاَ تَأْخُذْكُمْ بِهِمَا رَأْفَةٌ فِي دِينِ اللَّهِ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ وَلْيَشْهَدْ عَذَابَهُمَا طَائِفَةٌ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ الزَّانِي لاَ يَنْكِحُ إِلاَّ زَانِيَةً أَوْ مُشْرِكَةً وَالزَّانِيَةُ لاَ يَنْكِحُهَا إِلاَّ زَانٍ أَوْ مُشْرِكٌ وَحُرِّمَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ}. قَالَ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ رَأْفَةٌ فِي إِقَامَةِ الْحُدُودِ.
