Establishing the Sharia-ordained punishment upon one who commits indecency atones for their sin. Avoiding indecency is an act for which a servant is rewarded if they are sincere. There is a difference between one who abstains from indecency after being invited to it and one who goes to dens of evil with bad companions. Going to dens of evil with bad companions is a sin that requires repentance and abandoning these companions.
