this sort of punishment is un-islamic, those who carry out these barbaric executions are not muslims.

these are verses from the Qur’an (Surah 24 Al Nur) which look at adultery.

2.”the adulterer and the adulteress, scourge ye each one of them (with) a hundred stripes…”

4.”And those who accuse honuorable women but bring not four witnesses, scourge them (with) eighty stripes and never (afterward) accept their testimony – they indeed are evil-doers-”

5.”Save those who afterward repent and make amends (for such) lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

this is the punishment given to us in the Qur’an, and although it is a very dated punishment, execution is not mentioned. as a muslim i feel that these things can be settled without the use of any physical punishment so long as we do not stry too far from the fundamental values of islam.

Sharia law punishes both male and female who committ extra merital sexual intercourse. Where is that male ? Fake photo .

Obviously a photoshop, but you’re an idiot to say we can’t judge other cultures. This kind of public torture and execution does take place in Iran and elsewhere for *women* convicted of adultery. It’s barbaric, brutal, and despicable, and if you had to personally witness it happening–a woman buried neck-high and her face mutilated with tiny rocks while her children watch on–you would sing a different tune.

It is inhuman. What is the punishment for male. Before any person is punished, one should look into the circumstances and background. Even a case of rape can be converted to adultery. Woman should have the equal right as that of man. When no punishment is given to the man how can it be just in punishing only the woman?

My last boyfriend was Somali. The woman in the picture is NOT a Somali woman. Somalis range from dark black to light black, that woman in the picture is clearly NOT black at all. Try again.

I also believe that this photo is a fake. First, the lady does not look to be of Somali origin; Second, her hijab is apparently spotless – most unlikely if she has indeed been buried with the rubble around her and then stoned. At least there would have been some marks on the hijab immediately covering her head, for such blows to have proved fatal. This is another sorry stab at Islam.

In any event, it is not for us to judge the way that other cultures deal with their beliefs and doctrines. I wonder what they would think if they wandered around most of our larger town and city centre clubs and pubs after kicking out time.

They’d find any number of British women who’ve gone out and got ’stoned’. The only difference is that they don’t know and don’t care who they sleep with – and they’ve probably left hubby at home babysitting.

People in the western world should seriously contemplate the consequences of their own actions before critisizing others. How many disturbed fatherless children do we have to breed before the penny drops.

For sure any one can notice that this photo is made up by photoshop. But he who made it is not prophessional enough to do it right. Another thing somali people are black and I wonder how could a somali woman could be white. Finally stop these silly things againt islam and muslim it is nonsense.

This is what’s so wrong about the fundamental doctrines of Islam. Napaka-one-sided.

It should be either both parties are allowed multiple marriages, or pareho na lang monogamous.
