Re: One thing love about Islam/being muslim

@Nisha25

even if i have some issues with sharia law, i do love the fact that iran had done the “eye for an eye” ruling for the Ameneh Bahrami case where she had acid thrown on her by her rejected suitor. If he really loved her he wouldn’t have disfigured her entire face by throwing acid on it just b/c she didn’t love him.

the eye for an eye seems very appropriate in this case even if it is a highly unusual judgment for iran, I’m glad(not sure if that’s the word i want to use) the criminal court ordered Majid Movahedi to be blinded in both eyes from drops of acid in response to a plea from his victim, Ameneh Bahrami. It seems very fair, the pain she felt he will feel too, she won’t get her beauty back or her sight but atleast she got some kind of justice

in a nonsharia court he would probably just get a few yrs in prison

This incident took place 7 years ago, but I don’t believe the punishment has been carried out yet.
