“It is not illegal for Christians to drink alcohol in Iran but under Islamic law, Muslims are forbidden from drinking and it is illegal for Muslims to convert. The trio’s conversion from Islam to Christianity is not recognised by Iranian authorities who subscribe to Sharia law.”

A hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him” (Bukhari 9.84.57). The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law according to all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence.

The majority of them, including the four main schools of jurisprudence (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi’i, and Hanbali) as well as the other four schools of jurisprudence (the four Shiite schools of Az-Zaidiyyah, Al-Ithna-‘ashriyyah, Al-Ja’fariyyah, and Az-Zaheriyyah) agree that apostates must be executed.”

Qaradawi also once famously said: “If they had gotten rid of the apostasy punishment, Islam wouldn’t exist today.”

But the Iranian authorities are just lashing these converts, not executing them. AT LAST, MODERATE IZLAM!

A SHARIA court has sentenced three Christians to 80 lashes each after finding them guilty of blasphemy for drinking holy communion wine.

Yaser Mosibzadeh, Saheb Fadayee and Mohammed Reza Omidi will be flogged in public after being arrested at a house church gathering in Rasht, Iran, earlier this year.

The trio spent weeks in prison before finally being released on bail, but will now be subjected to the cruel and degrading punishment after being found guilty by Islamist judges.

The trio’s conversion from Islam to Christianity is not recognised by Iranian authorities who subscribe to Sharia law.

An Iranian court sentenced the trio to 80 lashes each as punishment for their actions.

Many people faint after eight strokes due to the severe pain of the barbaric corporal punishment, which was commonplace in the Middle Ages.

“It is not illegal for Christians to drink alcohol in Iran but under Islamic law, Muslims are forbidden to convert"

Obviously, they are punished for their conversion - and it is NOT wine after the transubstantiation...

Good luck surviving 80 lashes!

Praying for these three.

God is not a murderer. Someone else who is worshipped in certain religions is, however.

These Muslim savages were rewarded with $1.7 billion by Obama to sign his nuclear deal that gives Iran nuclear weapons on nine years now. No wonder they think they can get away with anything.

[Dacula]

Stupid people.

IT IS NOT WINE! It is the blood of Christ.

[Rurudyne]

Symbolically.

But that’s another debate.

aradawi also once famously said: “If they had gotten rid of the apostasy punishment, Islam wouldn’t exist today.”

If the DNC had applied their talent of infiltrating media, government institutions and even the GOP to infiltrating the Islamic schools of jurisprudence, the world could have been free from Islam by now.

The trio’s conversion from Islam to Christianity is not recognised by Iranian authorities who...

 

...who, being themselves but fallible and uninspired men, have assumed dominion over the faith of others, setting up their own opinions and modes of thinking as the only true and infallible, and as such endeavoring to impose them on others, hath established and maintained false religions over the greatest part of the world, and through all time;

...

 that it is time enough for the rightful purposes of civil government, for its officers to interfere when principles break out into overt acts against peace and good order; and finally, that truth is great and will prevail if left to herself, that she is the proper and sufficient antagonist to error, and has nothing to fear from the conflict, unless by human interposition disarmed of her natural weapons, free argument and debate, errors ceasing to be dangerous when it is permitted freely to contradict them.

Well said!!

Wait until God kicks Islam to the dead pool..

[zaxtres]

You want people who mooslime to believe that after the transubstantiation the wine was turned into the Blood of Jesus. This is the same group who in the Quran names Jesus - Isa. Isa has no meaning in any language. This same group believes the Holy Trinity as the Mother, Jesus and God. This same group who believes Mary (Mariam) to be the sister to Moses (Arun). This same group who believes an imposter was set upon the cross and crucified and that Isa (Jesus) was never crucified. This same group who believes their prophet to be the intercessor in the place of Jesus.

Yeah good luck that!

Besides its the jooos who drink the blood of babies! /s

Didn’t you know Hell is populated with many women because their prophet saw them there.

Didn’t you know in the Quran it says all mooslimes will dwell in Hell until their prophet prostrates in front of their almighty (but how can he see their almighty?) and asks for forgiveness for them. Then their prophet will lead them out of Hell into Heaven where there is rivers of milk and honey and 72 white raisins. Okay the 72 white raisins are only for those who can go straight to heaven by becoming a martyr through jihad.

[aces]

yep, it’s bs..Mohamm is the liar

[cynwoody]

So, how about we sentence Iranians to 80 megatons for being Mooselimb?
