All I'm trying to find out is whether women are always buried deeper than men. If not, does it depend on the severity of the crime, can men too be buried to the neck?
Do the Quran and the hadiths say anything about semi-burial?

I'll have a check tonight when I get back from work. From what I can remember, the burying does not depend on the severity of the crime but I will have to check with my sharia law text book. I'll also check about the burying - not sure if it is in the Quran at all mind you.

That is disgusting...

For the judge to think that the death penalty is excessive for rape is pathetic.




Proof?

This was the time of the taliban, there were private and secret videos made of the court days that were held in a football stadium, they dont have such material on youtube but these videos were being circulated around on middle eastern news tv channels at that time.

you know you mentioned this angel of yours... is he in the form of a human?

He's a human soul. I call him "angel" but I'm not being serious. It's just what everyone told me he was before it got so rediculous, I had to confront him on the subject. Judging from the records of others who encountered him, he first surfaced back in 1951, just after the Jews re-entered Israel. He's not particularly pleased, which I thought was weird considering the fact that he led a return to Judah, from Babylon, back when he lived. But... I investigated and he has quite a number of legitimate complaints.

To me, it doesn't actually matter where the information comes from. I don't trust the word of the living or the dead, but if it's verifiable (and it is), and if it can help the situation in my life and times ~ who cares who told me how to find it?

yeah but i mean is that really necessary?
in Afghanistan the taliban used to shoot women who were simply accused of commiting zina by their mother in laws.

is that justice?

Taliban followed Shariah so I doubt they would take the word of one person without any evidence.

so were the taliban really following shariah?

lol I really don't know. I never been to Afganistan. Also most of what we heard from the media is a lie. It was to build up a war agiasnt Taliban and justify it. I am sure Taliban would not change the laws of Shariah. Probably you are confused with the Northern Alliance.

Just had a read up on it in the Quran; the ayats pertaining to the punishment make no comment about semi burial (i.e it is not a punishment God has ordained). This is most likely some shia practice - I have not encountered any hadith, sunnah or Quranic ayats confirming semi burial of anykind. What Iran's law on this matter is being based on is certainly beyond me!

Edit: Afghanistan doesn't follow sharia law completely.
 
I don't know, call me old fashioned but I believe a punishment should compliment the crime. So, I wouldn't kill a child rapist. That's letting him off easy.

I would, however, turn him into a eunuch :Evil: ~ and have him serve the household of his victim until such time as she regains her sense of authority.

It makes a huge difference because if they are able to escape they are allowed to go free.

I am not sure where you heard if he escapes he is free. Here is a hadeeth:

Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 4969; Muslim, 1691

It was narrated from Jaabir that a man from (the tribe of) Aslam came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) when he was in the mosque and he said, “I have committed adultery.” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) turned his face away from him. The man came to that side to which the Prophet had turned his face, and testified against himself four times. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, "Are you mad?” He said, “No.” The Prophet said, “Are you married?" He said, "Yes.” So he commanded that he be stoned in the Musalla (Eid prayer place). When the stones troubled him, he ran away, until he was caught in al-Harrah and killed.

No problem with the Eunich solution but him serving the household would be a bad idea. It would be a constant reminder to the family of what this man has done.
