Abstract

This research deals with an important jurisprudence issue entitled

“incest and its punishment in Islamic jurisprudence - a comparative study”

It was based on four topics: the first devoted to the definition of incest and

its ruling; the second was devoted to those which incest includes and their

different types; the third to the sayings of scholars and the punishment of

those who commit incest ;and the fourth to overweighting and discussion. All

this was followed by conclusion and recommendations, The research found

that incest is more sinful when compared with other types of adultery. It was

also found that there is a disagreement among the scholars on the penalty for

incest, but they overweighed the killing and the confiscation of money of the

one who committed incest whether he was virgin or married.
