TWO MAJOR CAUSE OF ZINĀ - MARRIED & SINGLE

 *TWO MAJOR CAUSE OF ZINĀ - MARRIED & SINGLE*

There was a woman by the name of Hind *al-Khus al-Iyadiyyah. She was one of the wealthy woman in the pre Islamic times, well known for her intelligence, wit,* eloquence and words of wisdom. Inspite of being a woman of position and honour amongst her people, she commited adultery with her slave boy.

People asked her: “Of all people, what made you commit adultery with your slave boy *whereas you are a leading woman of your tribe? Why not with a free person instead?”*

So she replied: “The factors which prompted me to commit adultery and that too with a slave, were two, one was “Qurbul Wisaal” (this refers to being close physically, that is they had easy *accessibility to each other due to living in the same place). The second factor was* “Tulus Sawaad” (which could be translated as “long chats”).

(Risaalatul Mustarshideen – Pg: 177)

*These two factors are the highly inflammable ingredients that cause explosion and destruction.*

*Lesson: Being in privacy with strange woman and casually chatting with them may eventually lead one to falling into the* most despicable of actions and thereby bringing him/her perpetual disgrace.
