Salam,
Quote:Karbala, I m not really sure if you really did read the article.
Here is the explanation for what is puzzling you Karbala, and I think you are being also affected with the over hyping western media.
Muslimah please I think you know better than to patronise people.
I asked the simple qustion why the Qatif girl is being labelled an "adulterer" or a "Zaani" in Dan's calltoislam article.
Thus
Quote:if your only problem is descibing her as adultress, I think in Arabic they wouldnt use Zaniyah.
Ok let me see if I understand you. The wouldnt use the word Zaniyah in Arabic for the Qatif girl right?
Muslimah did you read the article carefully?
Quote:The Qatif woman was tried in a court of law and found guilty of Zinnah (in the general sense of the word). She is a convicted Zaani (adulterer).
Look Muslimah they used the word Zaani. Do you agree with this? You just said yourself they wouldnt use the word zaniyah in arabic. Zaani, zaniyah isnt it the same word? Am I missing something here?
I also asked the simple question why the Ta'azir punishment was justified?
Quote:Therefore, we consider the woman to be adulterous who sends nude photos of
herself to men that are not her husband, has flirtatious chats with them on the
internet, secretly meets up with them behind her husband’s back, etc. These
crimes may not deserve the Hadd punishment, but they are deserving of the
Ta’zeer punishment.
Nowhere in this paragraph is there an explanation why Ta'azir punishment is justified for a woman who has done "khalwa" with a non-mahram man. There were no nude photos by the way.
