Is Zina Adultery Or Fornication As Well? Reasoning For Prohibiting Fornication.
Family is the basic institution of mankind since man is born fragile and weak For keeping human race alive and bringing up in a right way it is compulsory to put some restrictions on them without those restrictions on their sexual urge it is impossible to keep this institution safe secure and stable So for the safety of our race it was required to accept some restrictions Since sex is also an addiction like drugs so restrictions has to be followed completely without any possible exceptions which could be extended
I had the same question and came here to ask but i thought someone might have asked it before me so i searched for it and this discussion popped up. I read the whole discussion and but still I’m confused. As you said ” Meanwhile, to the said fact that sex can become an addiction; it shouldn’t be a problem anymore after one gets married, as it becomes completely legal between the spouses? When we put this logic in context, does there still remain any other rationale for the prohibition? “ So if you have gotten your answer please explain it to me.
What if two people love each other and they commit fornication and later on they get married? Talking about West, People have different culture and sex before marriage isn’t the only reason for doing whatever you mentioned here. Yes reason behind prohibition of adultery is understandable to an extent but our main concern is fornication. BTW no one here criticized Quranic Hukm. We only tried to understand the wisdom behind prevention of this sin and punishment that has been assigned for this sin.
1. “If preservation of family is the core reason to prohibit free sex, then I am confused why Quran recommends that a adulterer can only marry an adulteress or idolatress. I am assuming here that Quran is talking about a habitual adulterer or adulterer” Quran talks about the adulterer who is proven guilty by the court. Quran is not suggesting them to marry an adulterer or an adulteress, but showing its contempt that such filthy people are not eligible to marry modest Muslim man and women. They should marry with each other or with a polytheist who is indulged in a false belief, which is declared filth of belief. 2. “These days getting accidentally pregnant is either deliberate or complete carelessness; especially when there is morning after pill. Then early abortion is fairly simple.” To kill a being without a valid reason is inhuman and cruel. Would you like to kill a dog without any reason? then why a fetus which would be going to be a human should be killed (aborted) because it takes place accidently. It is cruel. Once free sex is allowed, even if the safe sex, it will lead or tend to lead to make man indisciplined in the matter of sex. It is a preventive measure taken by God, because, here, if God had not given His verdict, man could have not adopted a definite position or stand on having sex out of marriage bond for at least unmarried persons. W e see in the case of alcohol, safe drinking can never stop a lot many people going wild and cause trouble for the society. 3. “Having free sex will ruin society need to be seen. All societies come to an end no matter what.” I mean it will ruin the civilization where the institution of marriage is holding human beings together. All ethics stems through and transmit from family. This is another problem that all societies will come an end, like human beings come to their death.
