Zinaa

Zinaa

Slmz I wanted to find out what exactly is clarified as zinah? If a married man is talking to another married woman but they have not had intercourse, is this zinah?

 

 

 

Answer

Assalaamu alaykum
In the literal sense, zinaa refers to actual intercourse.
However, from a spiritual level, sometimes certain acts that lead to Zinaa may have the same destructive effect of Zinaa itself, for example an unmarried couple touching each another, kissing, talking alluringly, looking, etc.
And Allah Ta'ala know best
