How Sharia Law Punishes Raped Women
FRONTPAGE MAGAZINE.com ^ | Monday, November 17, 2008 | Hasan Mahmud

Posted on 11/17/2008 2:11:37 AM PST by Cindy

On October 30, 2008, the United Nations condemned the stoning to death of Aisha Duhulowa, a 13-year-old girl who had been gang-raped and then sentenced to death by a Sharia court for fornication (Zina). She was screaming and begging for mercy, but when some family members attempted to intervene, shots were fired by the Islamic militia and a baby was killed.

Local Sharia courts in Bangladesh regularly punish raped minor girls and women by flogging and beating them with shoes.[1] Similar cases of punishing raped women are Mina v. the State, Bibi v. the State and Bahadur v. the State.[2] Sharia courts in Pakistan have punished thousands of raped women by long term imprisonment.[3]

You might think that such horrific barbarity cannot be the real Sharia law; that it is a misapplication of the law by ignorant clergy. Sadly, neither is true.

There is a traceable dynamic in Sharia Law that is bound to lead to this barbarity. And unless we abandon these laws we will never be able to emerge from this barbarity.

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy.

The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.

A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.

Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the infence of the religion paralyzes the social development of those who follow it.

No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith.

It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.”

Sir Winston Churchill (The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages 248-50, London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1899).

(E) “The evidence of women is originally inadmissible on account of their weakness of understanding, want of memory and incapacity of governing.”[14]

Of course, under Islam a woman (of little girl) is no more than a piece of property. At best a man’s pet.

How “upside down” can a religion and culture possibly be?

I swear, in 1979, I was in Saudi, on the road from Ad Damman to Riyadh. We overtook a small Toyoda truck. The weather was well over 100 F. In the back of the pick-up was a black shape, that turned out to be a woman, in one of those wonderful black frocks.

In the cap of the truck was a male driver and, in the passenger seat was a goat.

Honest!

I tried, for years & years, to wake people up to the threat the militant side of Islam poses to America, Israel, and the entire West itself:

For Islam, a Religion of Peace®? The Most Damning links-- click the picture:

Watch the videos, read the links, ponder the quotes.
Wake up, and smell the Jihad...

A drunk walking down a street in London comes upon two Sharia-appropriate females.

One passes to the drunk’s left and one to his right.

The drunk halts in amazement, and exclaims, “HOW DID SHE DO THAT?!”

Have you ever heard the original joke about the drunks with the two motorcycles coming at him driving side by side? The drunk wonders how the car split in half when the motorcycles split to go around him.

Why does this suprise anyone? According to islam it is HER FAULT for tempting the man. According to islam it is the woman’s duty to cover herself so as not to tempt. Sex in islam is strictly for the pleasure of the man. Why do you think they have female circumcision?

Barbarity at it finest! What does NOW think of that?

Great joke, but just don’t try it while drunk.

About three years ago down at a biker rally here in Indiana a drunk biker was driving around with his friends and as they were driving towards him he would drive between them as they split.

Second time he did tried it a cute teenage girl was driving her fathers truck down the road and he hit her dead nuts between the headlights.

Poor sixteen year old girl was devastated for killing the idiot, I felt so sorry for her.

Islam is an insane murder cult, from Mad Mo until today.

The rest is PR designed to lull the infidels to sleep, until it’s throat cutting time.

If they had ANY sense of self-preservation,the feminists and homosexuals would see Islam as the biggest real threat to their very lives.
