Muslims Threaten To Murder Woman For Leaving Islam -
Cowardly Politicians Silent, “Scared Of Offending” Muslims, by Robert Spencer,
1/16/19.
Cowardice is pandemic today, and
spreading everywhere. The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic
law. It’s based on the Qur’an: “They wish you would disbelieve as they
disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until
they emigrate for the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them
and kill them wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or
helper.” (Qur’an 4:89)
A hadith depicts Muhammad saying:
“Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him” (Bukhari 9.84.57). The
death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law according to all the schools
of Islamic jurisprudence.
This is still the position of all the
schools of Islamic jurisprudence, both Sunni and Shi’ite. Sheikh Yusuf
al-Qaradawi, the most renowned and prominent Muslim cleric in the world, has
stated: “The Muslim jurists are unanimous that apostates must be punished, yet
they differ as to determining the kind of punishment to be inflicted upon them.
The majority of them, including the four main schools of jurisprudence (Hanafi,
Maliki, Shafi’i, and Hanbali) as well as the other four schools of
jurisprudence (the four Shiite schools of Az-Zaidiyyah, Al-Ithna-‘ashriyyah,
Al-Ja’fariyyah, and Az-Zaheriyyah) agree that apostates must be executed.”
Qaradawi also once famously said: “If
they had gotten rid of the apostasy punishment, Islam wouldn’t exist today.”
“‘I was called a sl*t for taking off my
hijab’: Student, 26, who renounced Islam reveals she still receives death
threats for ditching the religion – and says hundreds more women are living in
fear,” by Stephen Johnson, Daily Mail Australia,
January 14, 2019:
A former international student who
renounced Islam has revealed she receives death threats for leaving the
religion and says hundreds of other women are living in fear.
Zara Kay, who moved to Melbourne in 2012
to continue studying information technology
and
engineering, renounced her Muslim faith after realizing the religion she was
raised with was, in her opinion, anti-women and anti-gay.
The 26-year-old Tanzanian-raised founder
of the Faithless Hijabi support group said there were hundreds of ex-Muslims in
Australia, who live in fear of being ostracized, abused or even killed.
‘Apostasy is punishable by death in 13
countries. It’s either Islam or death,’ she told her Instagram followers on
Sunday.
She has stepped up her campaign to
support people like herself, after Saudi teenager Rahaf Mohammed al-Qunun was
granted asylum in Canada, after fleeing to Thailand fearing her family would
murder her for leaving Islam.
Ms Kay began wearing the hijab when she
was an eight-year-old girl growing up in Tanzania, in east Africa, as a Shia
Muslim.
She removed the religious garment as an
18-year-old student at Monash University Malaysia, near Kuala Lumpur, after
realizing it was no longer a representation of who she was.
‘The first time I took off my headscarf
and posted a photo, I was abused,’ she told Daily Mail
Australia on Monday. ‘I was told I was a sl**. I was called
names for just not wearing the headscarf. ‘It was just my hair and I was told that if I get
raped, it’s my fault because I don’t wear a headscarf.’
Her journey towards renouncing Islam continued
in Melbourne, where she continued studying at Monash University. The former
international student, who last year became an Australian citizen, is now an
outspoken critic of Islam and Sharia law, as described in the Quran.
‘To me, hijab is a form of patriarchy
and oppression. And that doesn’t mean that every woman I see with a hijab is
oppressed, it just means the covering itself is a symbol of oppression,’ she
said.
‘It’s clearly mentioned about wife
beating in the book. It is a sin for a wife to say no to a husband when asked
to have sex unless she’s got her period.
‘Sharia law talks about how women need
to be covered and there are some many laws, they don’t fit in this day and
age.’…
As an ex-Muslim living in Sydney, Ms Kay
gets death threats from Muslims on social media who regard apostasy, or
renouncing Islam, as a sin worthy of death.
‘Ex-Muslims are scared to talk about
it,’ she said.
‘A lot of the politicians haven’t even
addressed our rights. ‘They’re scared of offending religious
feelings.’
Ms Kay slammed the term Islamophobia,
arguing it was used to silence people like her who had renounced Islam. ‘It put us in a position where we’re
unable to share our experiences,’ she said.
‘Free speech should never be suppressed,
especially with minorities because it enables people to attack those
minorities. ‘Ex-Muslims should continue to speak out and normalize
conversations about their experiences and their thoughts about Islam. ‘We’re letting Islam have too much
control over what we can and can’t say.’…

Islam is not a
religion. It doesn’t recognize
individual free will and ignores human nature.
Islam is a medieval tyrannical governing system that is incompatible
with the laws of most countries.
