To what extent is the hadith authentic which states that whoever commits adultery with a married woman will be punished in the grave with half the torment of this Ummah, and that whoever places his hand with lust upon a woman unlawful to him will come on the Day of Judgment with his hand shackled to his neck, and that his lips will be cut with shears in the Fire if he kisses her, and that if he commits adultery with her, his thigh, tongue, hands, eyes, legs, and private parts, along with the angels, will bear witness against him, and that Allah Almighty will bear witness to His knowledge and concealment [of the sin], and then command his torment due to his lack of shame before Him?
The answer to this Hadith was previously provided in Fatwa no. 277942, with the note that the question was about the beginning of the Hadith, and the rest of the Hadith falls under the same ruling. Therefore, please refer to the previous Fatwa and the link provided therein.
