Sharia implemented in “moderate” Malaysia as state allows PUBLIC CANINGS

10

We are constantly admonished that Malaysia is a “moderate” Muslim country that shows that Islam is perfectly compatible with modern norms and principles of human rights. This is the reality.

“‘Bleak future for Malaysia’ as public canings allowed under Islamic law reform,” by Katie Mansfield, Telegraph, July 12, 2017:

PUBLIC caning will be allowed in part of Malaysia after a state amended its Islamic laws sparking major criticism.

The new law was approved in the state assembly of Kelantan, which is governed by a conservative Islamist party, PAS, and where nightclubs and cinemas are banned.

The northeastern state has been pushing for the adoption of a strict Islamic penal code, called ‘hudud’, that would provide for punishments such as stoning for adultery and amputations for theft.

It is unclear what crimes will be punishable by public caning but it is thought to include adultery.

According to Bernama state news agency Kelantan deputy chief minister Mohd Amar Nik Abdullah the amendment allowing public caning was passed as part of an effort to streamline sentencing under Islamic criminal law.

He said: “Caning can now be carried out inside or outside of prison, depending on the court’s decision.

“This is in line with the religion, which requires that sentencing must be done in public.”

Islamic law is implemented in all Malaysian states but is restricted to family issues such as divorce and inheritance, as well as sharia crimes involving Muslims, such as consuming alcohol and adultery. Criminal cases are handled by federal law.

Critics say the amendment could be unconstitutional and infringe on the rights of religious minorities. …

Can’t believe the Tele used ‘bleak’ in their title. Probably change it to ‘different’ or ‘conservative’ soon.

Caning in public exposes the victim to more humiliation

Caning is particularly useful to keep women in line. The men get a sexual charge from watching the spectacle, and feel good that they can keep women in their place with the threat of canning. The the entire patriarchal social system depends on keeping women in line, which is certainly challenging at times because women have a tendency to yearn freedom and respect like any slave would. They must be constantly beaten to keep them in submission. It’s disgusting to consider how they treat their women.

This shows that there are no moderate Muslims. Like a person with a deadly and infectious disease, others will catch it even if that person is the kindest person on earth. Islam is a disease and it must be eradicated immediately or sooner.

I remember some ten years ago a woman was caned in either Malaysia (spit) or Indonesia (spit again) for drinking A beer in public.

Singapore has had canings as a punishment for various crimes for years, and it’s not “muslim”. Caning is a typically British punishment used for years around the British Empire.

Nice try at obfuscating the fact the reasons for canings in Singapore are vastly different than those in Malaysiastan or Indonesiastan.
