Re: US body urges "aggressive action" against S Arabia

saudi dynasty princes have stolen the wealth of the entire nation why dont they chop their hands off first?
they are so islamic when it comes to certain things but what about a kingship is that allowed in islam?

"As for the thief, both male and female, cut off their hands. It is the reward of their own deeds, an exemplary punishment from Allah." (Surah al-Ma'idah, 38).

yea i guess they do need to step into the 21st century - keeping the world in mind.

they're not always that extreme - im sure living in ksa - you know about blood money and paying off what you stole.

question here is though: how does the US get to make the decision of reform?

Good point. They should be thrown onto the streets for being the great liars and cheaters that they are. the ibn Saud family are descendants of the Banu Khurayza. I think that speaks for itself.

I believe Kingdoms are allowed in Islam, only because its system of governance is more similar to a khilafat than a democracy. But a Kingdom must acknowledge its Islamic duties. Obviously this kingdom of KSA is clearly astray, that is agreed.

@<em>pink.carnation.princess</em>

true that mercenary, there is no religous freedom - but *some *of their laws are actually islamic. you should know..the cutting of the hands, public beheading, and all that jazz. that aint tribal stuff.

i agree they really are lacking some principles of islam.

Saudi laws are a hodge-podge of personal choices of "royal" family, mutawwa-group (clergy) and they are different for royal family, different for local Saudis and different for foreigners. They only use name of "Sharia" and call themselves "Islamic" just like we do in Pakistan.

@mercenary2k

I have lived in Saudi Arabia for 10 years.

they have no religious freedoms or any other freedoms what so ever...

why were you living in Saudi arabia for 10 years, when you hate arabs, and think there are no freedoms in that country ?

I think the reason you hate arabs hence hate all arabs ever since.

^ PBH, no personal insults. Some people lived in Saudi Arabia with their parents, in that case they don't have much choice, like myself. Now that I look back at the time I spent there, I really would've loved to live in Pakistan instead.

yaar,

still, why would a freedom loving family of M2k live in the country which they hate ? Nobody forced anybody to go and live in saudi arabia.

My views could be very contradicting/conflicting with my father's, no? For example he could be all praise for Jamaat-e-Islami and I could be anti-Jamat, no?
