The word zina (adultery and fornication), in Islam, can be used in two different, yet related, ways. It can be used as a general term that refers to a general meaning, and as a legal term defining a criminal act that invites punishments and other legal applications.
Zina in its broad meaning indicates any haram (prohibited) act, whether the act was sexual intercourse or a look, talk, touch, or desire that is related or may lead to elicit sexual relations.
Ibn ‘Abbas narrated that the Prophet (pbuh) said:
‘Allah has written for Adam’s son (mankind) his share of zina (adultery and fornication), which he commits inevitably. The zina of the eyes is the sight (to gaze at a forbidden thing), the zina of the tongue is the talk, and the inner-self wishes and desires and the private parts testify all this or deny.’
These are forbidden because they eventually might lead to sexual intercourse, and they are forbidden as a preventive issue.
Allah (swt) in the Nobel Qur’an said:
Nor come near to adultery: for it is a shameful (deed) and an evil, opening the road (to other evils).
Surah 17 Verse 32
Scholars said that what makes some forms of gazing, talking, and touching forbidden acts is that they bring you near zina.
Allah also said:
Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty: that will make for greater purity for them: And God is well acquainted with all that they do.
Surah 24 Verse 30
Zina, as a legal term, has a more specific meaning because there are legal applications related to it. According to scholars, in its legal meaning zina is ‘the voluntary sexual intercourse outside of marriage when the male sexual organ is inserted inside the female one, regardless of the number of times.’
Thus, any sexual relationship, which fits this definition, is legally zina and deserves the application of a major legal penalty.
Zina in its broad meaning and its legal meaning are both haram (forbidden). However, committing zina (the legal meaning) leads to a major legal penalty, whereas committing anything that brings you near to zina is considered a bad deed for which one is accountable before Allah and it does not qualify for any specific physical punishment set out in Islamic law.
Zina is regarded among the major sins in Islam. The Prophet (pbuh) said:
‘There is no sin after shirk (polytheism) greater in the eyes of Allah than a drop of semen, which a man places in the womb which is not lawful for him.’
One may ask why zina is forbidden. The answer is that the shari’a (Islamic law) has objectives and intents. The objective of the Islamic law is to serve the interest of people (masalih al-‘ibad). The five ultimate interests (al-kuliyat al-khamsah) are the deen (belief), an-nafs (life), al-‘aql (intellect), al-maal (wealth), and an-nasl (family and lineage).
The wisdom of preserving an-nasil (family and lineage) is to assure the recognition of the right lineage of people and their children, by which the social kinship and social network is kept safe and stable, as well as preserving society from sexually transmitted diseases.
Islam has two ways to preserve an-nasl (family and lineage):
Making marriage permissible and commanding Muslims to declare their marriages and to announce the children who come from the marriage.
Eliminating the causes of corruption by prohibiting and punishing zina and by forbidding coming near to zina .
Allah knows best.

I heard that they would make them get married to each other if the family finds out. When people convert to Islam, they start new life as if they were new born.I guess u wash away ur sins by promising to god not making the same sin again. U should consult with a Muslim religion expert.

Salam :) i'm a Muslim teen residing in Canada. I positioned on hijab alhamdullilah and this is for the main section customary here on account that i stay in a huge city with a extensive Muslim inhabitants. I do get the few ignorant comments and idiots in college however who ask stuff like "yo have been given a bomb decrease than there hahaha". however the toughest section is being distinctive out of your pals. Being a Muslim, events, alcohol dating boys donning revealing outfits and so on is haram, and on a similar time as i do no longer prefer to try this besides, that's somewhat awkward to could clarify why i do no longer do it to those who evaluate it basically component to being a young person and its basic to them. Muslims residing in Muslim international locations truthfully have it less complicated while it comprises setting up in. And with meals that's somewhat difficult yet I continually attempt to make sure the label if i'm unsure of the climate. yet i does no longer wanna be the different faith no count how confusing it gets and how distinctive i've got faith from anybody else, i'm happy to be Muslim :)

The ONLY one who can forgive sin is God Himself and that through Jesus Christ His only begotten son. You can keep on trying to deny Christ as your saviour but only time will tell that true born-again Christians are telling you the truth. Sex before marriage is wrong no matter who you follow. No man should punish for sin because that is up to God the Father upon judgement day. For ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God. No one is perfect except God and that is why Jesus is God because He is perfect. So, you can believe what you like but it is up to each individual person to have a personal relationship with Jesus to go to Heaven. Open your mind and realize that I am not condemning you but trying to help you. Seek and ye shall find; ask and it shall be forgiven unto you. Seek Jesus and ask His forgiveness before it is too late. May the Lord open your eyes before it really is too late. One day, you may remember that I tried to warn you. Amen. I know that you will never vote this as the best answer but that is okay because it is not meant to get points, just love for one human being for another. Thank you for your question.

If a married person commits such a crime, then the punishment is stoning to death. However, if the perpetrator is unmarried, he will receive 100 lashes in addition to applying a discretionary punishment as it is reported in one of the Prophetic hadiths that the unmarried adulterer should be lashed and banished for a period of one year outside his house and hometown.
Allah Almighty says: “And those who cry not unto any other god along with Allah, nor take the life which Allah hath forbidden save in (course of) justice, nor commit adultery and whoso doeth this shall pay the penalty. The doom will be doubled for him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein disdained for ever. Save him who repenteth and believeth and doth righteous work; as for such, Allah will change their evil deeds to good deeds. Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful.”
repent with all your heart n allah will forgive you!!

Hello people, the asker is a muslim, saying 'jesus christ will save you' means very little (or nothing at all). Generally the punishment for pre-marital sex, according to strict islamic law, is stoning to death.

when man and woman have sex together and they are not married,,their punishment is whipping,,,if one of them is married from another person then, his/her punishment is to be excuted (killed),,,,, however if no one did not see them at all and they regret and feel bad and ask god for forgiveness from their heart,, they will be safe,,,, by the way,, for this crime to be a crime,, Islam provided that at least 4 witnesses must see them,, or else they are innocent and the one who claim that must be whipped.

a hundred lashes or death by stoning if was married to someone else before.
It is a serious sin but a serious repentance and a promise never to repeat will help as Allah is All forgiving. better still talk to a Aalim or a mufti.
