Public Spectacle: al-Shabaab savages directing ghoulish execution 'audience'

The logical extension of Islamic Sharia society:

A Somali adulterer has been stoned to death by Islamic fundamentalists, a fate awaiting his lover once she gives birth, an official says.

The BBC reported Friday Abas Hussein Abdirahman, 33, was killed in front of about 300 people in Merca, Somalia. Al-Shabaab official Sheikh Sultan Aala Mohamed said Abdirahman had admitted his guilt before an Islamic court before his execution.

“He was screaming and blood was pouring from his head during the stoning. After 7 minutes he stopped moving,” a witness told the BBC.

An official from the al-Shabaab Islamic group said Abdirahman’s girlfriend would be killed after she has had her baby, the British broadcaster said.

Somali President Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed said al-Shabab is harming Islam’s image by killing people and harassing women

“Their actions have nothing to do with Islam,” the president, a moderate Muslim, said.

“They are forcing women to wear very heavy clothes, saying they want them to properly cover their bodies but we know they have economic interests behind -they sell these kinds of clothes and want to force people to buy them.”

This is what happens when you combine a failed state with the organised crime of Islamofascism.

The claim by the ‘moderate’ Somali ‘President’ (how can you have a president with no effective government is beyond us), that the stoning of adulterers has ‘nothing to do with Islam’, is disingenuous to say the least. Although there are no direct references to the practice in the Qur’an, scholars are split on whether various passages from the Ahadith (sayings and traditions of the Prophet, which can and do have legal force in Sharia) do mandate this gruesome, inhuman punishment.

Yet despite this apparent ambiguity, stoning to death is already the de facto and de jure punishment for adulterers in Afghanistan, Iran, parts of Nigeria and Saudi Arabia – and has just become in the largely Muslim province of Aceh, Indonesia. All these places are under Sharia jurisdiction.

Draw your own conclusions.
