Young Muslim Faces Death Penalty For Criticising Mohammed by gratiaeo(m): 6:29am On Jan 07, 2014 |
A young Muslim in Mauritania is facing a possible death sentence after being convicted of apostasy and jailed for having written an article criticising the Prophet Mohammed, a judicial source said Monday. He was arrested on Thursday in Nouadhibou in the northwest of the country, an Islamic republic, and “was convicted of lack of respect for the prophet,” and jailed, the source told AFP. The author of the article will be brought before a judge and given the chance to repent but if he refuses, “he risks the death penalty,” the source added. Illustration: The hangman In the article, which was published on several Mauritanian websites but later removed, he questioned the decisions taken by Islam’s prophet and his companions during the holy wars. He also accused Mauritanian society of perpetuating “a sinful social order” and defended those at the bottom rungs of society who he described as “marginalised and discriminated against from birth.” It marked the first time an article criticising Islam and the prophet had been published in Mauritania, where Sharia law is enforced — although severe punishments like death sentences have not been applied since the 1980s. http://pmnewsnigeria.com/2014/01/06/young-muslim-faces-death-penalty-for-criticising-mohammed/ |

As a christian,I serve a loving and forgiving creator. It is not His will that any of us should perish but come to the knowledge of Him. Anyother religion that will kill his creation on his behalf does not worship God the creator. Besides,my father is more than able to punish any of his children Himself. The idea of men taking another man's life on behalf of God is occultic and not of God. Finally,I always ask any one who thinks otherwise to answer this question- if you have a son or daughter whom you love and she insults you and a stranger takes your child and kill him on your behalf,would you congratulate and reward him for killing your own child? The answer will tell us the folly in some religions. How can one kill the child God created and expected God to reward him? Sad,very sad indeed. 11 Likes |

U kill someone for merely criticising ur prophet and u claim u are worshiping God. Which God? |
Re: Young Muslim Faces Death Penalty For Criticising Mohammed by kgbd(m): 8:26am On Jan 07, 2014 |
I belief he was prepared for any resulting punishment before releasing the article. Kill him or not he already has some followers and it will only be a matter of time be you put some numbers of your people to death every other week. |

You people should learn to read an article and digest the information passed, rather than just gulping the headlines before making comments. First of all. I want everyone to know, the accused is a muslim, and him accepting islam as a faith, has bounded him to the rules which he must abide to. Its like you taking an oath on something knowing glaringly the repercussions if you decide to go against the oath. Note that the laws are only binding to muslims, not non muslims. Secondly, I want everyone to read this part "The author of the article will be brought before a judge and given the chance to repent but if he refuses, ?he risks the death penalty" this means that he would be given a trial process and his side of the story would be heard, just like in every other normal courts proceedings in the rest of the world, and then if found guilty, he would be given a second chance to repent, that means if he had been misinformed, he would be enlightened more about islam so as to know where he got it wrong. Thirdly, this "although severe punishments like death sentences have not been applied since the 1980s" this clearly has showned that the death penalty is just a scare and it won't be carried out unless it bcoms an option of last resort And Yes, islam is a religion of peace and love. A religion whereby its doctrines covers every single aspect of the human life, from the bigger aspects like politics, trade, marriage, law and order to the minutes things like cleansing oneself after urinating, how to eat and sleep 2 Likes |

Leviticus 24:10-16 - Punishment for Blasphemy 10 Now an Israelite woman's son, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the people of Israel. And the Israelite woman's son and a man of Israel fought in the camp, 11 and the Israelite woman's son blasphemed the Name, and cursed. Then they brought him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan. 12 And they put him in custody, till the will of the Lord should be clear to them. 13 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 14 “Bring out of the camp the one who cursed, and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him. 15 And speak to the people of Israel, saying, Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin. 16 Whoever blasphemes the name of the Lord shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall stone him. The sojourner as well as the native, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death. 1 Like |
