Apostasy should be made a crime in Pakistan

Re: Apostasy should be made a crime in Pakistan

Seminole, interesting thoughts. I feel if Islamic punishments were to be imposed in a Muslim state, it would greatly reduce the crime rate. However, it would deter foreigners from settling and trading with the country.

Then again, this is what many other countries seem to be doing either intentionally or unintentionally by banning hijaabs. It would obviously compel those who wish to observe hijaab to settle in a Muslim country or another country where observing hijaab is permissible. Similarly, if Shariah is to be applied literally, it would require those who are not in favour of it to settle elsewhere. It seems like a fair bargain to me.
