Zina (زنا) is an Arabic term for extramarital or premarital sex. Islamic law prescribes severe punishments for both men and women for the act of zina. Premarital sex may be punished by up to 100 lashes, while adultery is punished by Rajm. However, the act must be attested by at least four witnesses of good character.

Historically adultery has been subject to severe sanctions including the death penalty and has been grounds for divorce under fault-based divorce laws. In some places the method for punishing adultery was traditionally stoning to death.

Historically adultery has been subject to severe sanctions including the death penalty and has been grounds for divorce under fault-based divorce laws. In some places the method for punishing adultery was traditionally stoning to death. Wives have usually been more harshly punished that husbands, however this arises from biological necessity - a cheating wife could lead to a husband providing for a child who was not any blood relation of his, whereas a cheating husband would at least not lead to the wife providing for a "cuckoo's child".

Islam discourages social interaction between men and women but not all interaction between men and women. This is shown in the example of Khadija, who employed Muhammad and met with him to conduct trade before they were married, and in the example set by the other wives of Muhammad, who taught and counselled the men and women of Medina. The textual basis for insisting on total segregation of the sexes is the hadith on zina (fornication and adultery) of the limbs narrated from Ibn Mas`ud by Imam Ahmad in his Musnad with a strong ...

The practice of Misyar marriage is often different from the original intent for creating this institution. Wealthy Kuwaiti and Saudi men sometimes enter into a Misyar marriage while on vacation. This allows them to have sexual relations with another woman without committing the sin of zina. They travel to poor countries, such as Egypt or Syria, and meet middlemen who arrange a marriage for them. Some men arrange Misyar marriages online. The middleman brings some girls and they pick the one that ...

Mukhtaran testified that in June 2002 her adolescent brother Shakoor was suspected and accused by the Mastoi of committing ziadti (rape, sodomy or illegal sex) or zina (fornication or adultery) with a Mastoi girl, Salma, also known as Nasim.

This topic is controversial in the Muslim world. Shia deem it as a blessing revealed in the Qur'an intended to make everyday life easier, while Sunnis view it as tantamount to zina. Although this is the main fiqh difference between Shia and Sunnis, it is still merely a fiqh issue and not relevant to the core beliefs. The question is whether Muhammad or Umar abolished it, it does not define weather one is Shi'a or Sunni. In theory, a Sunni could conclude, just like the Shi'a, that it was Umar that forbade Nikah Mut'ah, in the sa ...

Most Muslims believe that this institution was established by God through Muhammad in the Qur'an. The single mention of it in the Qur'an is verse 4:24. The prominent Sunni exeges ibn Kathir states in his Tafsir: [فَمَا اسْتَمْتَعْتُمْ بِهِ مِنْهُنَّ فَـَاتُوهُنَّ أُجُورَهُنَّ فَرِيضَةً] "('So with those among them whom you have enjoyed, give them their required due') was revealed on the subject of the Mut'ah marriage.
