🟠 The Evil of Zina (Fornication & Adultery) 🟠
💬 Ibn al-Qayyim رحمہ الله said:
Since the evil of zina (fornication and adultery) is among the greatest of evils,
◻️ And it directly opposes the system of the world in preserving lineage,
◼️ And protecting chastity,
◻️ And safeguarding honor,
◼️ And preventing what leads to the greatest enmity and hatred among people—
💭 By corrupting each other’s wives, and daughters, and sisters, and mothers,
🖇️ And in that lies the destruction of society.
🖇️ Its severity follows immediately after the evil of murder.
🖇️ And this is why Allah سبحانہ وتعالى has paired it with murder in His Book, and His Messenger ﷺ has done the same in his Sunnah.
💬 Imam Ahmad رحمہ الله said:
"I do not know anything greater after murder than zina."
💭 And Allah سبحانہ وتعالى has emphasized its prohibition in His statement:
{وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّـهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ وَلَا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّـهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا يَزْنُونَ وَمَنْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ يَلْقَ أَثَامًا ۞ يُضَاعَفْ لَهُ الْعَذَابُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَيَخْلُدْ فِيهِ مُهَانًا ۞ إِلَّا مَنْ تَابَ} (الفرقان: ٦٨-٧٠)
❝And those who do not call upon another god besides Allah, nor kill a soul that Allah has forbidden—except by right—nor commit zina. And whoever does that will meet a severe punishment. ۞ Their punishment will be doubled on the Day of Judgment, and they will remain therein humiliated ۞ Except for those who repent...❞
🖇️ Thus, Allah سبحانہ وتعالى has coupled it with shirk and murder,
⚪️ And made its punishment eternal torment with double punishment,
⚪️ Unless the servant removes the cause of this punishment through repentance, faith, and righteous deeds.
🖇️ And since the root of this sin begins with the gaze,
🖇️ Allah سبحانہ وتعالى commanded lowering the gaze before the command to guard one’s private parts.
⚪️ For all occurrences originate from gaze,
⚪️ Just as most fires arise from a small spark.
🖇️ So, it begins with:
A glance ➝ then a thought ➝ then a step ➝ then the major sin.
💬 And for this reason, it has been said:
"Whoever safeguards these four, has secured his religion: his glances, his thoughts, his words, and his steps."
🖇️ So, it is necessary for the servant to be the gatekeeper of his own self at these four entrances, remaining constantly on guard at their openings.
🖇️ For through them, the enemy enters upon him, so he roams through the dwellings and utterly demolishes whatever is elevated within them.
