Salaam,

Might be relevant to the discussion: http://qa.sunnipath.com/issue_view.asp?id=12121

Bismillahi
I see there
"As the classical and contemporary jurists (such as Mufti Taqi Usmani) have made clear, a rapist can be convicted on lesser evidence (including scientific evidence, such as DNA tests and medical reports) for discretionary punishments. These discretionary punishments are left up to the legal system to determine."
Normally what is that discretionary punishment according to the shariah. I hope some scholar will shed the light.
Wassalam
