بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Question: (Translated from Turkish) Assalamu Alaikum, I have the following question: Sheikh An-Nabahani (ra) said that the fourth Aayah of Surah Muhammad was revealed before the Battle of Badr. What is the evidence for this? While the majority have said that it was revealed after the Battle of Badr? I would be pleased, if you could explain this. If the married Jaariyah (the one whose right hand possesses) commits Zina (adultery), then is her Hadd (prescribed punishment) Ar-Rajm (stoning)? The Answer [from the] Arabic: Wa Alaikumu Assallam Wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakaatuhu, Your question arrived to me in the Turkish language and after being translated into Arabic, I have answered it in Arabic which was then translated to Turkish. Here is the answer: Firstly: The Aayah that you have asked about is the following in Surah Muhammad (sallalahu alaihi wassalam): ( فَإِذَا لَقِيتُمُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فَضَرْبَ الرِّقَابِ حَتَّى إِذَا أَثْخَنْتُمُو
