Follow Islamic Law when punishing rapists

This hadith discusses the punishment for rape in Islamic law. According to this hadith, if a man rapes a free woman, he must pay her bride price as compensation. If she is a slave then he must pay what he has diminished of her worth. The hadd punishment is applied to the rapist but not to the raped woman. If the rapist is a slave then it is up to his master whether or not they wish to surrender him or not. This shows that Islam takes rape very seriously and provides justice for victims of rape by punishing those who commit it and providing compensation for those who have been wronged by it. It also shows that Islam does not punish victims of rape but instead seeks justice on their behalf through other means such as providing them with financial compensation in form of bride price or restoring their worth if they are slaves at time of crime being committed against them.

The main values taught in this hadith are justice and compassion towards victims of crime such as rape which can often be overlooked in other societies where perpetrators may go unpunished while victims suffer without any reparations being made on their behalf from society or government institutions responsible for upholding laws protecting citizens from harm caused by criminals like rapists etc..
