We hear lot these news time and again.

What will be your reaction if your sister/wife/mother is a victim of this barbaric incident?

Do u think enough punishment is given by the Modern World - Democracy to the HUMAN ANIMALS who involve in this crime ?

they should be punished according to Islamic rules if the victim is in a Muslim country...or where the Islamic rules can b applied

I know someone who was gang raped when she was 13 years old. She is now 29 mashaAllah.

I was only 6 years old, so I didn't know until recent years when she told me. The men that did it to her didn't even get punished because there was no evidence placing them at the scene except for her word. They did barbaric things to her and I believe she would of been a completely different person if that didnt happen. She grew up on drugs.. left home when she was 14, did only Allaah knows what... she is non-muslim btw.

The scummy men who do this to women deserve to be executed.

personally, i think rapists should in turn be raped by gay men seriously and then they should be executed

I think people should lose limbs for commiting crimes against others, stealing, loose a limb buddy. Would cut the rates down alot, but then again is that what the goverment really wants? I dont know

The punishment for most crimes in North America are a joke. Sometimes I entertain vigilante thoughts and can't blame people who do these kinds of things in certain situations. I always recall the case of the "Vigilante Dad" - his daughter was kidnapped and rapped for years by a couple - when she was able to escape to go home, he found them and killed them. He was then put on trial for their murders. I can sympathyse with his reaction.

But then don't acts like this lower you as well? Quite a horrible situation to be put in.

Voted agree with the law. Minimum sentence for rape where I live is 18 years to life. I don't believe in state sponsored execution. I would get satisfaction through killing them only if I could do it myself. But that's just personal vendetta and not how a civilzation should run.

thanks.

haha lol! cracked me up silly

I have to agree. I'd also agree with the law and pray strongly for sabr (patience), because oh boy would I be furious. Yet as MaiCarInMtl said, wouldn't this lower yourself at their level too?

Well, it's hard for me personally to say, 'cause in Islam I'd have the right to do justice according to the Shariah them. Yet the Shariah is not acted upon here or anywhere else, so have to agree with the law. Also, I am much more on the side that forgiveness and not making revenge is way better and it is most rewarding in the end. Although I can strongly symphatise with how hard it can be to think that way in that situation.

If someone else executed them, it would never satisfy my revenge either. I'd want to destroy them, but the thought scares me how violent I could become. It doesn't feel right to think that way as a Muslim. We are only allowed to hurt as much as was hurted, but I am very scared I wouldn't be able to control myself if I was given the chance..

InshaAllah we won't have to experience this and inshaAllah these things will one day end and the victims will be shown much mercy by Allah and granted guidance and help!! May the ones who do injustice be put infront of the Greatest of Judges and may He judge the best way there is! Amiin.

This might sound ridiculous to some of you; but I think a few years in prison will do it if it's their first offense. A few years is plenty of time to reflect upon your actions. If it's their second offense or rape, I'd probably want them to have a bit longer in prison and get somebody to talk to them about it and convince them it's wrong. Third time; umm...life imprisonment maybe, but that's a big one.

Wa Alaykum Salam Bro Ali,

To be honest and with respect, that does sound ridiculous. Imagine, a woman keeping her virginity, in the hope that she can share this with her husband, keeping herself pure, through all temptations, she says no and resists, waiting for her husband.

All her life, this precious young lady, soft, delicate, is jumped upon by a man, who overpowers her, she refuses and he forces himself, hurting her physically, taking all her hard work away from her, much runs through her mind, he is enjoying himself, recieving pleasure from her body while she hurts.

Much more could be said, anyone who says such an individual does not deserve death, to me, is crazy and I'd dislike to have such a person in my community. But that's me, I guess.

she does not need to be my sis / mom ......rapist must get death penalty.

I agree. And that's not even mentioning the emotional and psychological effects of rape which can possibly leave you scarred for life..

This might be off topic slightly, but if you pay attention to situations in Africa and elsewhere you see rape used as a weapon of war. Why? Because it shatters lives and leaves the victims in state of lifelong shock and despair.

Looking at the domestic level, where rape is still a common crime, it has the same effect on women in the USA as it does to those poor women in Darfur and the Congo. Personally, I think rape is one of the worst crimes that can be inflicted upon another human being, directly below outright murder. Some women might see it as worse than murder, and I wouldn't disagree. Doesn't matter to me whether it is a first offense or the third, it should be punished by the most severe means available to the law.

Yeah, I was just about to say that in my opinion, it is worse than murder. It is possible to murder someone whilst not really knowing what you're doing, in a fit of rage and anger. Raping someone, on the other hand, you are fully aware of exactly what you're doing. It's disgusting.
