    peace Samina,

    I don't think the quran is necessary for a person to know that adultery is a bad thing to do. Humans know good from bad instinctlively, you don't need the quran to know what's right or wrong.

      peace samina,
      you wrote

      pls tell me wht if a person committed adultery without the knowledge of quran , or wht if a person committed adulteryin ignorance but later got to know dat adultery is acually wrong and forbidden by Allah and later repents to Allah . so even for such a person the above law is compulsary ???

      417-ALLAH ACCEPTS THE REPENTANCE OF THOSE WHO DO EVIL IN IGNORANCE AND REPENT SOON AFTERWARDS; to them will Allah turn in mercy; for Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom.

      4110- IF ANYONE DOES EVIL OR WRONGS HIS OWN SOUL but afterwards seeks Allah's forgiveness HE WILL FIND ALLAH OFT-FORGIVING MOST MERCIFUL.

      3135-And those who having done something to be ashamed of or wronged their own souls EARNESTLY BRING ALLAH TO MIND AND ASK FOR FORGIVENESS FOR THEIR SINS and who can forgive sins except Allah? AND ARE NEVER STUBBORN IN PERSISTING KNOWINGLY IN (THE WRONG) THEY HAVE DONE.
      3136-For such the reward is forgiveness from their Lord and gardens with rivers flowing underneath an eternal dwelling; how excellent a recompense for those who work (and strive)!

      we see from the above verses that if we repent and ask for Allah`s forgiveness, Allah is forgiving. whether the society forgives us after repentance is another issue.

      peace.

        Hi agentxxx,

        r u saying a person can be ignorant that adultery is wrong?

        A person can be ignorant about fornication, but adultery?

        I am not saying adultery is an unpardanable sin, but there is no way one wont know its wrong in the first place.

        Peace!

          Hi Samina,

          243-Let no man guilty of adultery or fornication marry any but a woman similarly guilty or an Unbeliever nor let any but such a man or an Unbeliever marry such a woman to the Believers such a thing is forbidden.

          24 26?Women impure are for men impure and men impure are for women impure; and women of purity are for men of purity and men of purity are for women of purity these are not affected by what people say for them there is forgiveness and a provision honorable.

          pls tell me wht if a person committed adultery without the knowledge of quran , or wht if a person committed adulteryin ignorance but later got to know dat adultery is acually wrong and forbidden by Allah and later repents to Allah . so even for such a person the above law is compulsary ???

          I agree with pisces69.

          I think, A person who is an adulterer or fornicator(in the present state) is forbidden from marrying a pure person.
          But if they had commited fornication in the past, and they completely repent it and seek forgiveness from God now , and are no longer in that state of mind, I think they can marry a pure man/woman(also dependent on the wishes of the pure person). coz they are no longer impure.

          Peace!

              Yeah, but u quoted,

              The reason I asked was becoz,
              It is ''doing evil in ignorance'' that is mentioned in this verse.
              Not doing evil without knowledge of Quran.

              Peace!

                salam to all
                i dont want to mix up the meaning of adultery and fornication since i think both r equally wrong , , so i will e using the word adultery n through this word i also mean fornication

                i think there r some teenagers and some adults in every part of the world who think tht adultery is not wrong at all , the reasons for their thinkin is
                1.everyone around them is doing it so why not them
                2.they dont find any reason for considering it wrong because they think tht if they take birth control measures the female wouldnt convieve and it doesnt do any physical harm to any person
                3.they may think tht marriage doesnt makes any sense since u can get married and get divorced any time ,so havin free sex or adultery is not a sin
                they may have many such reasons of convincing themselves the adultery is not wrong at all
                n some pple spend their entire life with this thinking

                infact in some parts of the world prostitution is legal

                some pple may think the adultery is not wrong at all even though they may be gr8 pple in heart but they may think tht adultery is not wrong at all

                sometimes they r in confusion wether is it wrong or not

                i am not tellin dat adultery is right it is definetely wrong those pple who committed adultery thinkin in their mind n heart tht it is not wrong but then realised only through religious scriptures tht adultery is acually a sin

                yes i know the we can repent for our sins and Allah forgives whom ever he wills but my question is

                can a person who committed adultery in past but repented later on marry a chaste muslim person ????

                  I think u r implying fornication mostly and not adultery.
                  By Fornication I mean '''voluntary sexual intercourse between an unmarried couple.''
                  And by adultery I mean, '''the act of being unfaithful to one's wife or husband by voluntarily having sexual intercourse with someone else, when married''

                  In many societies today, sex without marriage(fornication) isnt considered a sin.
                  But adultery, which is sex with another, when u r married, is recognised as wrong by most.(exceptions exsist such as swingers etc).

                  can a person who committed adultery in past but repented later on marry a chaste muslim person ????

                  I believe one can, as long as that person no longer is in the state of adultery(and never shall be) and as long as the chaste person has no issues about it.

                  Peace!

                      salam

                      so i think most of the people say tht if a person repents from all heart to Allah for the sin he/she committed and decides not to commit adultery/fornication again can marry a chaste person

                      can u pls justfy ur thinking and ur believe with a verse from quran i think tht will become more clear n we shouldnt just make assumtions
