Re: Being killed for marrying a christian man and leaving Islam
You are not gonna slow down to look at what both you and Southie are failing to understand. Yes, even Southie, because as long as he continues to say that you are doing nothing wrong, he too has failed to understand.
Let’s address the comments I’ve highlighted in the above quoted post of yours.
If you were seeking advice on a personal matter in which you want a general opinion on whether your actions were right or wrong, that’s a different thing altogether. But what you’re basically doing here is conducting a poll. And a poll is usually not conducted without a purpose. People use poll results to prove a point or to use the results to make a decision. Why do you need to know “how many” people condemn this “law?” Tell us Bella, tell us why you need to see “how many” of us condemn this killing and why does Southie think it’s okay for you to conduct this “head count” of sorts?
Nobody is sugar coating the shariah laws. Go read my last post where I provided info regarding the scholars’ interpretation of the apostasy laws. That was the second time I posted information that I researched. You don’t want to consider or accept the research findings posted. If we tell you of how the scholars interpret the law…you call that “sugar coating.” Bella, shouldn’t you be happy or even relieved in knowing that some scholars don’t believe that the death penalty applies to individuals or simple apostasy such as your own and that it refers to high treason? Shouldn’t you be relieved that the scholars say that ordinary simpletons like us cannot call someone an apostate and sentence them to death…that this is not a simple thing but a matter in which there is an actual process? Shouldn’t you be relieved in knowing that the Prophet SAWS didn’t kill anyone for being an apostate? Or are all these things “sugar coating” to you? Would you rather hear us say that this atrocity which took place is connected with Islam? Would that make you feel better?
**Sure we’ll condemn this act, and we all do. If you want to call it a law, then fine, we’ll call it a law. We condemn this law, but we don’t associate it with Shariah and Islam. **And is our condemning of this woman’s death not enough for you? Or will you only be at peace if we condemn it specifically as a “shariah” law?
Im glad you condemn this law and thats all i wanted to hear from posters. im not saying this is truly islamic law or not as there are many muslims who disagree with sharia laws yet many who also agree with sharia laws. my point in this thread was simply to show how evil such laws are and it exists today and affects people. our condemnation will not bring this girl back to life but muslim world should speak up against such barbaric laws which do use religion as their motive.
