Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Re: SHARIA: Woman-Stoned-To-Death-For-Adultery: UNCIVILIZED !!

I wonder if such barbaric punishments can be challenged in an international court of law. If there is possibility, how about us as Africans across the board come up with an action plan?  For those who know the Quaran, can you tell me if the Prophet Mohamad ever talked about such a punishment or was it made up through out the years?  Imagine being hit with a stone just one time on your head.  Now can you imagine being pelted with multiple rocks and you cannot even protect yourself or rob the pain off?  No religion should condone such inhumane punishment.  By the way what happens to the men as accomplices?  Nothing?

Disgusting!!!,

Where are the Muslims, when such matters are being discussed?

The family is a unit of society and morality is therefore a serious
matter. Once a society becomes degenerate/ decadent it's been known to
crumble.

Some societies take sexual morality more seriously than others. The
punishments for sexual transgression as defined by the various
religions, varies from religion to religion and some people speak from
their religious perspectives, some more than three thousand years old,
some as old as Christianity (in which by merely looking at a woman,
you may have committed adultery/ fornication) and  in Islam which came
less than 1,500 years ago and claims to be the last / final Divine
Legislation communicated by the Almighty to mankind, the punishment as
defined by that religion  and the hell-fire that awaits those who are
not forgiven, will forever remain a reality. Calling it barbaric only
makes matter worse, from the strictly Islamic point of view.

 Some take the punishments more light-heartedly than others as
narrated here:


"The Confessional.

A priest was called away for an emergency. Not wanting to leave the
confessional unattended, he called his rabbi friend from across the
street and asked him to cover for him. The rabbi told him he wouldn't
know what to say, but the priest told him to come on over and he'd
stay with him for a little bit and show him what to do.
The rabbi comes and he and the priest are in the confessional. In a
few minutes a woman comes in and says "Father forgive me for I have
sinned. I committed adultery."
Priest says: "How many times?"
Woman: "Three times."
Priest says, "Say two Hail Marys, put $5.00 in the box, and sin no
more."
A few minutes later a man enters the confessional. He says, "Father
forgive me for I have sinned."
Priest says, "What did you do?"
Man says, "I committed adultery."
Priest asks, "How many times?"
Man replies, "Three times."
Priest says, "Say two Hail Marys, put $5.00 in the box, and sin no
more."
The Rabbi tells the priest that he thinks he's got it so the priest
leaves. A few minutes later another woman enters and says,
"Father forgive me for I have sinned."
Rabbi says, "What did you do?"
Woman replies, "I committed adultery."
Rabbi asks, "How many times?"
Woman says "Once."
Rabbi says, "Go do it two more times, we have a special this week,
it's three for $5.00."

 Nota Bene: it's not a joking matter.

As I said previously elsewhere, your statements qualify you as a naive candidate for a religious Martyrdom or a misguided recruiter of suicide bombers through brainwashing of  innocent people. Besides, pardon me, but it is my candid opinion that it is unlikely for you to  win case in a Court of Rational Justice. Take care. JUI
