وَٱلَّذَانِيَأۡتِيَٰنِهَامِنكُمۡفَـَٔاذُوهُمَاۖفَإِنتَابَاوَأَصۡلَحَافَأَعۡرِضُواْعَنۡهُمَآۗإِنَّٱللَّهَكَانَتَوَّابٗارَّحِيمًا١٦
Saheeh International

And the two1 who commit it [i.e., unlawful sexual intercourse] among you - punish [i.e., dishonor] them both. But if they repent and correct themselves, leave them alone. Indeed, Allāh is ever Accepting of Repentance and Merciful.

Saheeh International

The [unmarried] woman or [unmarried] man found guilty of sexual intercourse1 - lash each one of them with a hundred lashes,2 and do not be taken by pity for them in the religion [i.e., law] of Allāh,3 if you should believe in Allāh and the Last Day. And let a group of the believers witness their punishment.
