Irfana's (read womanhood's) rape
by Zaigham Ali on Jun 30, 2005 05:24 PM

I want to ask the so called Mullahs on what
grounds the issued the convoluted edict. If they
are basing it on the Islamic Law or Sharia'a,
wouldn't the rapist father-in-law be awarded a
death sentence? More precisely, according to
Islamic jurisprudence, a rapist is either beheaded
or stoned to death. Or do these sick individuals
follow their own version of Islam?
I would also like to bring to the attention of the
society at large the fact that no normal, educated
or illiterate Muslim, would accept a fatwa of this
kind. We all find it abhorent and bizarre.
