Hadith, Human Health, Zina, Textual, ContextualAbstract
Zina is a bad act that is prohibited in the teachings of Islam. It is not in accordance with the religious norms set in the hadith of the Prophet. In the modern era, zina has spread and is rampant by some teenagers and the elderly. They seem to be used to doing it without paying attention to the impact on themselves and others. This phenomenon of zina is interesting to research; some academics raise zina in hadith, but they do not link their studies to human health problems. This study integrates zina in hadith and medicine. This study aims to explain the prohibition of zina in the view of hadith and its effect on health problems. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach based on literature data. The findings of this study are that zina, in the view of hadith, is a heinous act that is prohibited by Islam. Scientifically, the prohibition of the Prophet is related to the aspect of human health. So medically, zina will come as a disease that is difficult to cure. The perpetrator experienced a Sexually Transmitted Infection (ITS) in his genitals, causing Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), and even Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). This virus attacks the entire immune system of the human body. Explicitly, this research greatly contributes to academics and the wider community by increasing knowledge about zina and its dangers to human health. Integratively, the Prophet strictly forbade his people from committing zina, because there is a negative influence on health problems.
