Assalaamu 'alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
Akhi since there is no Khalifah or an Islamic Dawlah in place today - where
on Earth can you carry out this punishment? There is no vigilantiasm in Islam,
so repentance at present is what's left.
May Allah subhaanahu wa ta'ala help us all.

I hear alot of scholars say that when a person commits
a great sin , they should repent. Repentance alone
does not expiate for ones sins. The punishment one
might recieve in this world is nothing like the
punishment in the next. So it would be better to
receive the legal punishment in this world.
