Wherever it has been instituted, Sharia law has resulted in a
morally repugnant, codified misogyny. For Muslim apologists to suggest
otherwise is casuistry, pure and simple. Simply put, Sharia is
incompatible with any state that has as a foundational principle the
equality of the sexes before the law. She condemns those who perpetuate
the Sharia-endorsed hatred of women, and rebukes those who, faced with
the status of women under Sharia, are complicit by their silence.Multiculturalism

is premised on the belief that there exists a moral equivalency among
cultures and religions. For Darwish, this is either naïve
sentimentality or a willful turning away from reality. Just as the
human body finds some substances toxic, so too are some ideas and
practices inimical to human flourishing. The reality is that Islam and
Sharia form a retrograde ideology that adds greatly to the world's
stock of misery. Accordingly, Darwish asks that we speak frankly about
what the Qur'an demands from believers, and consider carefully Islam's
brutal and impoverished vision. The West, she says, must face up to
this stark truth

I SIMPLY THINK THAT THE REPORTER IS JUST BEING BIAS AND NOT BEING FAIR. HOW CAN HE OR SHE GENERALIZE A PHENOMENON THAT HAS NOT BEEN CONFIRMED IN EVERY ISLAMIC COUNTRY? I'M NOT IN SUPPORT OF STONING SOMEONE TO DEATH BUT IN A CASE LIKE THIS, YOU SIMPLY NEED TO BE CAREFUL BECAUSE SHA'RIAH LAW IS NOT A MANMADE LAW. THEREFORE ANY ONE THAT HAS NO ADEQUATE KNOWLEDGE OF ISLAMIC LAW MUSTN'T SPEAK IN SUCH A SENSITIVE CASE.
AS FOR ME THE REPORT IS NOT DETAILED AT ALL. THE REPORTER NEVER TOLD US WHAT THE GIRL DID AND WHAT WAS DONE BY THE LOCALS THAT SENTENCED THE GIRL.

NO MATTER WHAT SHE HAS DONE SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN BECAUSE THE QURAN SAYS WHOEVER IS REMORSEFUL OF HIS/HER SINS, ALLAH SHALL SHOW THAT PERSON MERCY.
