One wonders what the punishment for men committing adultery is.

According to islamweb.net and other sources, the punishment for married adulterers and adulteresses should be the same.

1. Adulterers will get severe punishment, such as:
   1. 100 lashes
   2. Embarrassed in front of many people (Qs 24:2)
   3. Alienated for a year
   4. Possible stoning to death
      “ . . . When an unmarried male commits adultery with an unmarried female (they should receive) one hundred lashes and banishment for one year. And in case of married male committing adultery with a married female, they shall receive one hundred lashes and be stoned to death” (Sahih Muslim Book 17, No 4191).
2. No forgiveness for adultery
   “. . . a person from amongst the Muslims came to Allah’s Messenger . . . He called him saying: . . . I have committed adultery . . . he testified four times against his own self . . . Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Take him and stone him . . .” (Sahih Bukhari Book 017, No 4196).

What Taliban practice is, I cannot say.
