Shariah laws is pretty scary.
Thanks but No Thanks!
Interesting!
What exactly shariah law? And what makes it pretty scary/lot scary or plain scary?
Well I made the effort to find out, not through media, mainstream or otherwise.
Shariah law is a set of laws governing Muslims way of life.Their penal code is you like.even in Singapore we have Shariah law but more on administrative.
its not only about punishments but will, divorces etc.Things we might disagree and have other ideas about.Its fine to differ in views and opinion.
Now we are only used to hear the gory part of the punishments, yes? Me too
But has it served the purpose during those days unruly period some say medieval times? Well the Japanese thought it was during the Japanese war.Dead bodies hung on lamppost to deter looting for eg.Right or wrong is a matter opinion .
If somebody harm or kill our loved ones, do we say punish him but, but punish little bit? No, we want the full extent of the law to be meted out.
What Pas n kelantan was 'trying',i say trying cos I think it would not happen or at least not fully enforced in Kelantan
To have a full Shariah law imposed, the inhabitants must ALL be Muslims.First and foremost it must be fair.If interracial couple, say 1 muslim and 1 christian caught stealing and PROVEN guilty.Under the Shariah law his arms or is it hands(sorry can't recall) be amputated and the non Muslim only be jailed,. Is it fair?NO.
Because of that Shariah cannot be exercised if cannot be fair.
I ask a Muslim fren why in certain state they catch couple hugging and kissing at beaches, She asked me, if the girl is your daughter.you really don't mind she being a dark quiet place with a man.?
Of course nowadays, we have become liberal to some of us it doesn't bother us.
Sorry for the long post...I too thought it was scary this Shariah law.I made research and asked questions that taught me to at least know what we are scared of
