“Execute her”? One would almost think that Islam had a death penalty for apostasy. And in fact, it does. Muhammad commanded: “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him” (Bukhari 9.84.57), and the alleged “numerous verses in the Koran” that “guarantee freedom of belief” have not prevented all the sects of Islam and all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence, both Sunni and Shi’ite, from teaching that apostates should be killed.
Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the most renowned and prominent Muslim cleric in the world, has stated: “The Muslim jurists are unanimous that apostates must be punished, yet they differ as to determining the kind of punishment to be inflicted upon them. The majority of them, including the four main schools of jurisprudence (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi`i, and Hanbali) as well as the other four schools of jurisprudence (the four Shiite schools of Az-Zaidiyyah, Al-Ithna-`ashriyyah, Al-Ja`fariyyah, and Az-Zaheriyyah) agree that apostates must be executed.” There is only disagreement over whether the law applies only to men, or to women also – some authorities hold that apostate women should not be killed, but only imprisoned in their houses until death.
Meriam Ibrahim is also accused of adultery, because as (juridically) a Muslim woman, she married a non-Muslim man — which is forbidden under Sharia. Hence she is, per Sharia, an adulteress.
The caliph Umar, one of Muhammad’s closest companions, maintained that the punishment of death for adultery was originally in the Qur’an:
‘Umar said, “I am afraid that after a long time has passed, people may say, “We do not find the Verses of the Rajam (stoning to death) in the Holy Book,” and consequently they may go astray by leaving an obligation that Allah has revealed. Lo! I confirm that the penalty of Rajam be inflicted on him who commits illegal sexual intercourse, if he is already married and the crime is proved by witnesses or pregnancy or confession.” Sufyan added, “I have memorized this narration in this way.” ‘Umar added, “Surely Allah’s Apostle carried out the penalty of Rajam, and so did we after him.” (Bukhari, vol. 8, bk. 82, no. 816)
“Allah’s Apostle” is, of course, Muhammad, who did indeed carry out stonings. Here is the hadith in which he challenges the rabbis about stoning, and in which there is amidst the barbarism and brutality a final act of love and compassion:
The Jews came to Allah’s Apostle and told him that a man and a woman from amongst them had committed illegal sexual intercourse. Allah’s Apostle said to them, “What do you find in the Torah (old Testament) about the legal punishment of Ar-Rajm (stoning)?” They replied, (But) we announce their crime and lash them.” Abdullah bin Salam said, “You are telling a lie; Torah contains the order of Rajm.” They brought and opened the Torah and one of them solaced his hand on the Verse of Rajm and read the verses preceding and following it. Abdullah bin Salam said to him, “Lift your hand.” When he lifted his hand, the Verse of Rajm was written there. They said, “Muhammad has told the truth; the Torah has the Verse of Rajm. The Prophet then gave the order that both of them should be stoned to death. (‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar said, “I saw the man leaning over the woman to shelter her from the stones.” (Bukhari, vol. 4, bk. 56, no. 829)
Even the monkeys practiced stoning, according to another hadith:
During the pre-lslamic period of ignorance I saw a she-monkey surrounded by a number of monkeys. They were all stoning it, because it had committed illegal sexual intercourse. I too, stoned it along with them. (Bukhari, vol. 5, bk. 58, no. 188)
Muhammad’s example is, of course, normative for Islamic behavior, since “verily in the messenger of Allah ye have a good example for him who looketh unto Allah and the Last Day, and remembereth Allah much” (Qur’an 33:21).
“‘Execute her,’ says brother of Sudan Christian convert,” Al Arabiya, June 6, 2014:
The brother of Meriam Ibrahim, a Sudanese woman facing the death penalty for converting to Christianity, has said she “should be executed.”
Al-Samani al-Hadi told CNN that he handed his sister over to the authorities because his family are “Muslim people,” and that she should “repent.”“It’s one of two; if she repents and returns to our Islamic faith and to the embrace of our family then we are her family and she is ours,” he said.
“But if she refuses she should be executed,” he said.
Ibrahim, 27, was sentenced to death for “apostasy” last month by a Khartoum court for allegedly converting to Christianity from Islam. She maintains that her Muslim father left when she was young and that she was raised a Christian by her Ethiopian mother, who is an Orthodox Christian.
Ibrahim married a Christian man from southern Sudan in a church ceremony in 2011. As in many Muslim nations, Muslim women in Sudan are prohibited from marrying non-Muslims, though Muslim men can marry outside their faith.
Ibrahim has a son, 18-month-old Martin, who is living with her in jail, where she gave birth to a second child, a baby girl, last week.
By Sudanese law, children must follow their father’s religion….
brian murphy says
such barbarity and lack of humanity towards your own sister, who was raised as a Christian by her Christian mother as her Muslim father deserted the family; Ibrahim is a mother of a new born baby who needs her to survive and she has another young child; she is chained in jail like an animal and her American husband is the father so the U.S. pres. Obama should demand her freedom and that she be rejoined with her husband. Obama is a close friend of the Sudanese Muslim government as is Obama’s brother Malik.

The real problem here is that David Cameron ( and his ilk Blair, Clegg, Millaband et al) is unshakable in his belief that this “barbarity” has nothing to do with “REAL” Islam and “REAL” Muslims and that Jihadists and the al- Hadis of Islam are NOT TRUE MUSLIMS.
When if fact these people ARE THE REAL MUSLIMS practicing Islam as prescribed in the Koran. Hadiths and Suras.
As the old saying goes ” there are none so blind as those that refuse to see “
Mike Crouch says
The problem is there are too many, and they have too many votes. In many areas there is a high proportion of postal votes and an incredible amount of fraud. Nothing is ever done about this because the race card is always played early on, and then everyone backs off. We all know the old adage ‘Vote early and vote often’
John C. Barile says
As I remember, “There are none so blind as those who have eyes and yet will not see” is a rebuke given by a True Prophet to those who refused to acknowledge the truth laid right before them–denying that a man blind from birth had his sight restored by the power of God.

So a child of a Christian mother thinks his sister should be killed – for becoming a Christian, and marrying a Christian. All those nice Christian girls around the world being wooed by “charming” followers of Mohammed should take note…
If they take it further, their children and grandchildren will, in all likelihood, NOT be Christian… once you go with a Muslim, all your descendants are Muslim. No matter how “nice” the Mohameddan may seem…
Kepha says
The original Saxon cleric Martin Luther would say that such a man dishonors the womb that bore him. In Luther’s vocabulary, this was harsher than the “A$$!” and the “Swine!” that polemicists in his day routinely hurled at each other.

………………………………..
Maybe, maybe not, Green Infidel and Kepha. The Muslim father abandoned Meriam Ibrahim’s mother when she was just a baby.
Like so many Mohammedans, he probably had multiple families—so this pious thug might be a full brother who “reverted”, but I think it rather more likely that he is a *half brother*—same father, different mother—who actually was raised Muslim, and has the viciousness to show for it.
Peter Buckley says
Is CNN carrying this? Can we have a comment from CAIR or someone who still believes that “extremists” are “a tiny minority”?
Michael Copeland says
This is how, even when a court exonerates someone (like an alleged blasphemer in Pakistan) the “dishonoured” family or the mob will kill anyway. Such killing is authorised by Sharia “since it is killing someone who deserves to die” (Manual of Islamic Law o8.4). The killer will not face any penalty.

Sudanese Muslim men are jealous of southern Sudanese men because of…um…er…I can’t say, out of delicacy…perhaps the problem for the brother is the southern Sudanese husband, rather than the “apostasy”.
Mirren10 says
What on earth do you mean, PJG ? Do explain !
PJG says
Well…cough…southern Sudanese men are known to be good at…romance…cough cough…ahem…I have heard stories which suggest that…(enough said, by now you get it).
St. Michael Defend Us says
Sorry, I don’t get it. Who is it they are good at romancing? Have they found some women who escaped FGM?
PJG says
Looks like I have to be a litle more blunt.
Sexual prowess is not so easy for a man to develop when his woman has undergone FGM, wouldn’t you agree? Southern Sudanese women are not affected by FGM. Their men are reputed to be good lovers, and this the Muslim men have heard about and resent them for. The Muslim men tend to be shy and childlike because of sexual repression. They cannot fail to notice that their women rather admire the confidence (and appearance) of the southern men. It is rather uncommon for a southern man to marry a woman from the north, while some Muslim men marry southern women, partly because they want women who are physiologically intact. I’m making lots of generalisations here, but one does pick things up. I believe that the freedom of others to enjoy normal sexual relations is a source of envy and resentment for those who can’t, and it matters just as much as the others’ “wrong religion” or skin colour.
Over to you, Rezali: tell us how it *really* is…

PJG wrote:

……………………………
I’m sure this is true, PJG.
Of course, another reason for this is that since most of the south of Sudan is Christian and animist and most of the north is Muslim, and further that since Muslim men may marry Infidel women, but Infidel men are prohibited from marrying Muslimahs.
That is, in fact, the trumped-up charge in this story—that a “Muslim” woman married a Christian man.
PJG says
It does happen though, GI. One southern man told me about his Muslim step-mother who looked down on her Christian husband (surprise surprise!) and was horrible to the orphaned children of his deceased wife. And made sure those kids inherited nothing when their father died.
Uri says
Thankfully thousands of churches in the USA and many thousands more Christians are actively and loudly campaigning for the mother and children’s freedom …

Not so. The Barnabas Fund is actively campaigning for this woman. You can even go to their site and make a donation …

These people are completly devoid of humanity and quite vile specimens.
I was going to say of humans, but I am not sure they qualify.
This is not an unusual case, a few years ago in Malaysia (you know liberal Malaysia) a woman who had been born to a Muslim family but adopted and brought up as a Hindu, with a family of her own now, was abducted by a group of Muslims so that they could convert her back to Islam. I never heard the outcome of that piece of insanity.
Islma is religion that makes people insane.

St. Michael Defend Us says
“In reality he loves his sister…and wants to open dialogue” according to rezali. Publicly calling for her execution is one heckuva way to open a “dialogue” and show his love for her!
How is this “dialogue” going to end,? Even if she is forced to convert to islam, she still married a Christian, and is guilty of “adultery” according to islam.
You are probably right, her brother is enjoying the limelight, and “showing off” his bona fides of being a good muslim. He is a childish, shallow, selfish, self-serving person.
