| Re: Children born out of wedloc -

I've done a lil research, and apparently, the authenticity of the hadith is a matter of dispute amongst scholars. And the scholars who have said that it is sahih have interpreted "walad zanyah", which literally means "a child born out of wedlock", as a referral to a person who commits zina so much that s/he has become famous for it. Allahu A'lam. |
