This paper deals with the delicts of adultery and fornication. It presents rules related to this delict by referring to the individual pieces of regulation valid within the geographic area of our country and pointing out similarities with rules applicable for these delicts in the Islamic law, especially focusing on the possibility to punish – whether it is capital punishment, lashing or exile. While in our geographical region criminal prosecution has been completely abandoned, the traditional Islamic law still contains these punishments.
