What is your opinion, Your Eminence, on the statement "fornication is a good thing"?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The one who uttered this statement, if they are a Muslim, has apostatized, because they have disbelieved Allah, who described adultery as an abomination and an evil way, and because they have denied what is known necessarily from the religion, which is the ugliness and prohibition of adultery. Moreover, they are a liar and arrogant, given the observed health and other harms of adultery. It is obligatory for the one who said this statement to repent to Allah.
