Sharia in Indonesia: Woman caned for having sex before marriage

Apr 20, 2017 10:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The punishment was in accordance with the Sharia law, which forbids having sex outside of wedlock and punishes all offenders publicly.

The abuses that are sanctioned in Islamic law are numerous. Yet these abuses, albeit committed in the name of Islam, are routinely deemed by both Muslim and non-Muslim spokesmen in the West to be isolated and having nothing to do with Islam. No wonder efforts to take barbarism out of Islam keep failing.

“Woman in Indonesia caned under Sharia law for having sex before marriage”, Asian Age, April 19, 2017:

Jakarta: A couple was given between 23 to 25 lashes each in public, with a cane for having sex before marriage in Indonesia. The woman was robed in white, had her face covered and then made to kneel on a stage where she was punished in front of a crowd.The punishment was in accordance with the Sharia law, which forbids having sex outside of wedlock and punishes all offenders publicly.

According to a report in Daily Mail, the woman one among the four couples who were punished for the same crime. The sentence was carried out in Banda Aceh in Sumatra island, where the Sharia law is a part of the official legal system. The 25 lashes given to her, is the punishment for women who have sex before marriage.

The man was dressed in white too while he was being punished, but he was allowed to stand through it…..

    Barbaric practices cannot be tolerated in any country and the world should protest this savage practice and demand COMPENSATION to be paid to victims of it! That will create a barrier to its being used.

    Any Muslims who believe in such practices should not be allowed into civilized countries, since they are not in harmony with civilization.

    If anyone like such barbaric practices, let them remain in Soddy Barbaria or move to Berzerkistan.

      in Saudi Arabia the women would have been stoned. So Banda Aceh is actually liberal because they go against the sharia and simply cane the women.

        The authorities didn’t forget to let the women know of their “inferior” position during the caning – by forcing them to assume it.

    How did the sharia police know they had intimate relations? Does that mean there are Muslim voyuers wandering around alleys and behind bushes? Score another moral defect for Islam – we used to call people like that “peeping Toms” and they were arrested on a class one mistermeaner.

    All this talk of Indonesia and Malaysia being moderate Muslim countries is such a nonsense as shown by such incidences. Didn’t our VP visiting Indonesia yesterday or today praise Indonesia for such a fine “moderate Islamic” country. Here is an example of the “moderate Islam ” operating in Indonesia! Ha, ha…so as usual nothing has changed in our government’s views!!

      Would Muhammad and his companions be caned today just on the same principle? They attacked innocents and when they effected their conquests, they killed the male captives and raped their wives and daughters. Qur’an 33:50 sanctifies that kind of brutal behavior.

      Jaladhi,

      *…Didn’t our VP visiting Indonesia yesterday or today praise Indonesia for such a fine “moderate Islamic” country.* Yes he did…but Mr. Pence needed to hear from Dr. Bill Warner first… https://www.politicalislam.com/moderate-muslims-not-solution-radical-islam/

    So unwed Muzzie monkeys can go out in rape gangs and molest any woman from 9-90, and that is okay?

      Hi Paul N Silas:-
      It would be cruel not laugh at such Muslim nonsense.!!
      According to them it is wrong to have sex before marriage, but OK to rape and abuse females who aren’t Muslims. This is because they are held to be inferior and can therefore be used for sexual gratification on the basis of Jihad;- that is, they can be used as sexual slaves by Muslims who are waging Jihad or a holy war against anyone who isn’t a Muslim.
      Or to put it another way, an excuse to rape and abuse women!
      It is the most evil religion in the world!!!!!
      The 4 M’s;–
      Muslims,Maim,Mutilate,Murder people.

      However, their portion shall be in Hell, in the lake of fire and brimstone; which is the second death (Revelation 20 and 21)
