Is it true that Islam commands the killing of an unchaste disbeliever if he commits adultery with a Muslim woman, while a Muslim is not killed if he kills a disbeliever, based on the Hadith: "A Muslim is not killed for [killing] a disbeliever"?
An unfortified disbeliever is killed if he rapes a Muslim woman because he has violated the covenant, not because of the hadd (prescribed punishment) for adultery.
