The answer

The muhsan (chaste, married) individual whose punishment is stoning is the free, adult person who has had intercourse with their spouse in the vagina through a valid marriage. It is not a condition that they be married at the time of committing the act that necessitates stoning. So, whoever divorces or whose wife dies remains a muhsan if the remaining conditions are met.
