Is this narration about punishment of zina authentic?
> Al-Zawahir ‘an Iqtiraaf Al-Kaba’ir (2/225) It was also reported: “Whoever commits adultery with a married woman will have half of the punishment of this nation in the grave for her and for him. When the Day of Resurrection comes, God Almighty will judge her husband regarding his good deeds. This i...
> Al-Zawahir ‘an Iqtiraaf Al-Kaba’ir (2/225)
It was also reported: “Whoever commits adultery with a married woman will have half of the punishment of this nation in the grave for her and for him. When the Day of Resurrection comes, God Almighty will judge her husband regarding his good deeds. This is if it was without his knowledge. If he knew and kept quiet, God will forbid him Paradise, because God Almighty wrote on its door: ‘You are forbidden to the cuckold.’”
Edit: The Arabic text -
التخريج من المصادر العربية
الزواجر عن اقتراف الكبائر: (٢/ ٢٢٥)
وورد أيضا: «إن من زنى بامرأة متزوجة كان عليه وعليها في القبر نصف عذاب هذه الأمة، فإذا كان يوم القيامة يحكم الله تعالى زوجها في حسناته، هذا إذا كان بغير علمه، فإن علم وسكت حرم الله عليه الجنة؛ لأن الله تعالى كتب على بابها أنت حرام على الديوث
Is this true and authentic?
If anyone has knowledge please comment or answer.

With All due respect, the ruling in the Maliki madhab with regards to hadd on an unmarried pregnant woman (her pregnancy being proof)seems very unjust if she was truly raped. How could such an individual provide ample evidence for being raped? It would be difficult, especially in the past. The other 3 madhahib have proof from the Sunnah & accept verbal proof even, for the Malikiyya, I’ve come a cross a statement of Imam Maalik & so on(No Hadith reference). What proof do they use for this ruling? The statement of Imām Mālik seems very harsh and inconsiderate considering how serious the hadd is. In the Sunnah it’s clear that postponing the punishment for Zina is practiced, and it doesn’t seem so from the statement of Mālik & co.

In his Tafsir, Al Qurtubi states that Zina is worse in women than it is in men. Is this a majority view?
In his fifth point of the Tafsir of Surah Nur (24) verse 2, Al Qurtubi explicitly states that fornication in women is worse الخامسة : قدمت الزانية في هذه الآية من حيث كان في ذلك الزمان زنا النساء فاش ، وكان لإماء العرب وبغايا الوقت رايات ، وكن مجاهرات بذلك . وقيل : لأن الزنا في النساء أعر وهو لأجل ا...
In his fifth point of the Tafsir of Surah Nur (24) verse 2, Al Qurtubi explicitly states that fornication in women is worse
الخامسة : قدمت الزانية في هذه الآية من حيث كان في ذلك الزمان زنا النساء فاش ، وكان لإماء العرب وبغايا الوقت رايات ، وكن مجاهرات بذلك . وقيل : لأن الزنا في النساء أعر وهو لأجل الحبل أضر . وقيل : لأن الشهوة في المرأة أكثر وعليها أغلب ، فصدرها تغليظا لتردع شهوتها ، وإن كان قد ركب فيها حياء لكنها إذا زنت ذهب الحياء كله . وأيضا فإن العار بالنساء ألحق إذ موضوعهن الحجب والصيانة ، فقدم ذكرهن تغليظا واهتماما
Is this a majority view of the 4 madhahib of Ahlus Sunnah ? Is it the majority view in the Shafi school? Or is this a minority view? I always believed that Zina was equally bad for both men and women.

How should one get married if they have committed sexual immoralities?
I am a muslim male. When I was a child a person older than me had anal sex with me several times. When I was a teenager I had oral sex with one of my cousins. Does that make me a fornicator? According to Quran 24:3 A fornicator does not marry except a fornicator. How can I get married?

Assalamu alaikum. I am very ashamed to share my story but I am scared.
A few months ago, I used an Ai app that generates 18+ stories. So I used this app for fun. I used command some prompt and that app generated some incest story. One story was like, (my cousin disguised as my mom and doing erotic things with a boy) Naujubillah!
But at that time, I read that story and made me aroused and ejaculate few times. But I realized what have I done. Now I am feeling very scared that I made a big sin, I think I made same sin as adultery. I am regretting now. I don't know why I was supposed to used this app, I forgotten principles of islam. I crossed my limit. I usually do Salah, Will Allah forgive me if I repent?

If a woman falsely attributes a child to her husband, while he does not know the truth, is it a sin on her?
> The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his > mention ) said: “Any woman who falsely attributes her child to a > people to whom he does not belong, she has no relation to (the > religion of) Allah.” [Abu Daawood and An-Nasaa’i] Although the wording of the Hadeeth is about wome...
> The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his
> mention ) said: “Any woman who falsely attributes her child to a
> people to whom he does not belong, she has no relation to (the
> religion of) Allah.” [Abu Daawood and An-Nasaa’i]
Although the wording of the Hadeeth is about women, the ruling applies to men as well. If the husband becomes certain that this woman has committed adultery and falsely attributed her illegitimate child to him and he refrains from denying the paternity of the child, then he would be falsely attributing to himself a child that is not his. Accordingly, he becomes subject to the warning stated in the Hadeeth. This is in addition to the consequences of not denying the paternity of the illegitimate child with regard to rights as he would unjustly take part of his legitimate children’s rights.
It was given in a fatwa-
https://www.islamweb.net/en/fatwa/406384/husband-abroad-for-3-years-and-once-he-arrived-wife-had-baby
So if my understanding is correct,
Let's consider a scenario, a wife becomes pregnant by Zina, to hide her sins she attributes the child to her husband, while the husband is not aware of the fact that it is not his child. So, will she be under the wrath of Allah(swt)? Am also curious that will such things be put on trial or be exposed to the husband in judgement day?
Edit: Also the Hadeeth in which the Prophet said “He who deceives is not one of us” is an authentic Hadeeth narrated byMuslim, Abu Daawood, At-Tirmidhi, Ibn Maajah and others may also imply that it is a sin to cheat a person.

Punishment for dhimmi who commits adultery?

Stack exchange and abu hayyan quotes Hasan al basri. > Al-Hassan al basri said: "If a man discovers that his (christian or Jewish) wife is committing an immoral act, he should divorce her." https://islam.stackexchange.com/questions/86434/meaning-of-the-word...

https://islam.stackexchange.com/questions/86434/meaning-of-the-word-al-muhsanat-in-verse-55-according-to-the-zahiri-school
It appears from the opinion of al Hasan al basri that punishment for dhimmi adulterers is not rajm.
Hence my question what's the punishment for dhimmis who commit adultery?

Assalamu Aleykum. Im girl who was born as Muslim and growing up I started hating men. I have several reasons.
Maybe it's be of my father (hes good dad, im proud of him as my father but not good husband) also growing up I get too many sexual harassments from men who even have wife. I always wear long skirts or dresses and I have not worn tight clothes in my life but I still get it.
Thats why I got kinda disgusted by man.
The thing is Im trying my best to like them bc I have to be straight ( my sexuality) so that means at the end of the day I have to marry man. But the thing is after that incidents I started liking girls and even I have lesbian friend. Ive heard too many times that same-sex love is forbidden. But if U look up Quran there is no forbidden for women bc its not mentioned in Quran but for men its Mentioned, right? So that means I can love a girl?? If not why woman and woman can birth a baby (u can ask doctors if u dont believe me or even check google i guess) but im confused
