#3 Allah TaÂ’ala mentions in Verse 15 of Sura An-Nisaa, "And those of your women who commit illegal intercourse, take the evidence of four witnesses from amongst you against them, and if they testify, confine them (i.e. women ) to the houses until death comes to them or Allah ordains for them a way out." This way was explained by Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) in clear unconditional terms. Ubaada bin Saamit (Radiallaahu Anhu) says, "Rasulullah r used to become over-burdened when Wahi (revelation) used to descend upon him and his face used to become pale. One day revelation descended upon him r and he had the same experience. After the revelation he r said, "Take (this command of Allah) from me. Allah has ordained "a way out" for them (adultress). A person married in a valid Islamic contract would be lashed 100 times and then stoned to death. An unmarried person will be lashed 100 times and then expelled from the city for a year."(Ahkaamul Quran -Vol 2 Pg 107) So, "way out" was not explained or interpreted by human logic, but was a revelation from Allah TaÂ’ala. Similar are the examples of salaat, zakaat and other obligations in Shariah. The pragmatic method of salaat and zakaat is not found in the QurÂ’an, nor is any human using his limited intellect permitted to interpret them. Every Muslim understands and believes very firmly that the method and times for salaah as well as the details pertaining to zakaat that were taught by Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) is the divine way shown by Allah TaÂ’ala through revelation. No Muslim in a sane state of mind can negate this. But then again what sane person would become a Muslim? |

#2 I'll bet there's something against this in the Koran. I'll also bet there's something in the Koran that supports it. So everybody wins. Except the dead folks... |
