Who believes in honor killings?

Question

What have you understood from this? Have you gotten the point that honor killing has no place in Islam? And about 4 witnesses, that has nothing to do with rape. When the woman is tested and examined and its proven, that is proof enough and the rapist is to be stoned. What say you?

"The Muslims who participate in honor killings try to justify the act as following Islam and the instruction of Allah, but they are wrong. Islamic law (Sharia) is against the act because the family should refer to the law rather than carrying out their own punishment.

Islamic law prescribes severe punishments for extramarital sex, by both men and women. The crime of zina (consensual extra-marital intercourse) is a Hadd (very serious) crime mentioned in the Koran. But the Koran specifically requires four eyewitnesses to prove the crime of zina. There is no evidence unless there are witnesses.

Islam does not give any family member the right to carry out a punishment for zina unless it has been proved legally, let alone commit an honor killing. Honor killing is not mentioned anywhere in the Koran.

The Koran gives Muslim women the full freedom to choose their own marriage partner, so honor killings for this act are not Islamic.

The damages to the reputation of Islam arises in the fact that despite having no justification to do so, the governments of some Muslim countries have either provided the legal basis for honor killings, or have stayed silent. They are going against Islam.

Answer 1

There is no honor in murder....and certainly no honor in killing a woman...

Answer 2

Whether a person believes in Honor killings or not, the fact remains that 99.9% of all honor killings all over the world are being perpretrated by Muslims according to their interpretation of the Quran. It seems that maybe the Quran did not come from the "real" God if it can be easily misinterpreted in such a horrendous way. And according to this quote from your question,.....("But the Koran specifically requires four eyewitnesses to prove the crime of zina. There is no evidence unless there are witnesses"),.......Then, if there were only 3 men witnesses observing a woman being raped, their evidence is inadmissible.

The rationale that comes from the Quran sounds like it came from a mere human instead of Wisdom from God!

Answer 3

Apparently alot of Muslim men still believe in "honor" killings, girl. Also in beating their wives..also in punishing adultery as a crime in their courts systems often with horrible physical punishments ( because they are such merciful guys , those MEN who run the courts in Islam , the religion of MERCIFUL God ) of women who are raped but are also married... ) .....

Too complicated , girl Post the scripture about the four eyewitnesses needed to prove zina and I will show you four perverted MEN who watched the "crime" and ought to be punished for watching sex ( voyeurism ) ... watching a crime is as bad as participating in it and not stopping it from happening . Makes me wonder if their eye witness testimony is aever addressed in this way.. "And did viewing the sexual intercourse between the adultress and the male adulteror make your own penis get stiff, sir? ....Funny, huh? How is it men are always in charge? Um.. because they are bigger and stronger than the weak? Gross.

Jesus is all about the weak learning to become strong in themselves of right OVER wrong no matter what ..GODS way ... and not Muhammeds way. Just because men see themselves as "strong" physically ..to me ..only means they are often the weakest because so often the laws in Islam are based on the strength or weakness of a penis more than a mans integrity before God.

I am so glad I am not a Muslima. Too much drama.

Answer 4

No honor killings are haraam in Islam. they are carried out by ability of people who're uneducated and have no good Imams or Sheiks to instruct them the deen wisely. homicide is against Islam. Adultery is punishable by ability of stoning to dying for married adult males and married women caught interior the act and in the event that they supply 4 witnesses(that's impossible as we communicate except your fairly ill and demented). Sura 5:32 because of this, we decreed for the babies of Israel that any one who murders somebody who had no longer committed homicide or horrendous crimes, that's going to be as though he murdered each and all of the persons. And anybody who spares a existence, that's going to be as though he spared the lives of each and all of the persons. Our messengers went to them with sparkling proofs and revelations, yet maximum of them, regardless of each thing this, are nevertheless transgressing. Sura 4:29-30. 29.O you who have self assurance do no longer consume each and each others' properties illicitly-only matually suited transactions are prohibited. You shall no longer kill yourselves. God is Merciful in the direction of you. 30.anybody who commits those transgressions, malicously and deliberatly, we condemn him to Hell. that's undemanding for God to do. 31.in case you refrain from comitting the gross sins prohibited for you, we can remit your sins, and admit you an honorable recompance.

Answer 5

One who kills is without honor!

Answer 6

Allah is imaginary. Anything you do with the premise that there is a god is intrinsically flawed.
