Re: Question about Islam and Punishment Systems...
That's impossible because there were witnesses of high moral standard of course.
It's tribalism. It is absolute and leaves no room for error in judgement or dispensation of revenge.
The punishments Allah has prescribed for certain things have instant affects on the society we live in. They are meant to deter the soceity from indulging in it. Allah has made it clear the things he does not approve of and dislikes.
There is something terribly wrong with what you say. If justice was about likes and dislikes of a divine figure, then why allow absolution by compensation? I mean, why allow blood money? That is extremely tribal. It basically condemns poor without any such recourse, while the rich may only need to part with some cash. Moreover, what about trading girls in the same manner? It's all tribalism, and this is the remains of tribalism in the Arabian peninsula.
