Did Prophet Actually Forgive A Sinner Without Imposing Sharia Punishment?
The Ahadith mostly are void of the context and necessary details. There is no detail of kind of sin he committed. The prophet seemed to be satisfied with condition. The sin he was thinking of legally punishable might not that serious, as people were not well educated, since his name was not mentioned, it seems he was an ordinary man with less knowledge. His repentance suffices his sin. Principally, reports ascribed to the prophet, must be viewed under Quran and the established norms and ethics.
