There has to be four witnesses to prosecute an adulterer, but who has time for that
This should make people wonder. The prosecution for adultery/theft in Islam is really in fact more of a massive deterrent than a harsh punishment.
I don't blame a lot of people who see shariah law as something to be abhorred...because there is so much misunderstanding and propaganda around to make people fearful of the word shariah...let alone what it entails.
Allah created us and he knows what is best for us.
There would be no need for overcrowding in prisons if every man knew he would get his hand cut off if he stole. Maybe a few people will get the punishment carried out on them which in turns acts as a deterrent to anyone else thinking of taking something unlawfully.
The problem of high rates of crime does not just exist in the west. Go to somali...you wouldn't be seeing isbaaro,corrupt politicians if we actually carried the law Allah gave us to implement.
I ain't no terrorist..i am Muslim who truly believes that Allah knows what is best for us.
