Implementing legal punishment is expiation for sin
Hadith 1197
- " من أصاب ذنبا أقيم عليه حد ذلك الذنب، فهو كفارته ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Khuzaymah bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Whoever commits a sin and the prescribed punishment for his crime is carried out upon him, then that will be an expiation for that sin."
