May 8, 2023, Yousef Mehrad and Sadrollah Fazeli-Zare ran dozens of social media accounts “dedicated to atheism and desecration of the sanctities”, the judiciary’s Mizan news agency reported. Execution for Insulting Islam
Human rights group say Iranian courts regularly fall far short of providing fair trials and use false “confessions” obtained under torture as evidence.
“The execution of Yousef and Sadrollah for ‘insulting the Prophet’ is not only a cruel act by a medieval regime, it is also a serious insult to the freedom of expression,” said Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, director of Norway-based group Iran Human Rights.

Defaming the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is a kind of kufr. If that is done by a Muslim then it is apostasy on his part, and the authorities have to defend the cause of Allaah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) by executing the one who defamed him. If the one who defamed him repents openly and is sincere, that will benefit him before Allaah, although his repentance does not waive the punishment for defaming the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), which is execution.
If the person who defames him is a non-Muslim living under a treaty with the Muslim state, then this is a violation of the treaty and he must be executed, but that should be left to the authorities.
Toronto Imam Shabir Ally explains death penalty for “criticizing” Islam
There are classical books written that explained the religion of Islam. And these classical interpretations of Islam make it so objectionable to criticize God or the prophet or the scriptures of Islam to the extent that they prescribe the death penalty for the critic.
Brothers and sisters the last year a racist anti-Muslimism group have been desecrating and burning the Quran in front of the mosque in Norway. They are doing this to provoke a reaction from the Muslim community. So, that they can label Muslims as a violent terrorists and win support for their anti-Muslimism propaganda. The Norwegian government allows them to continue burning the Quran in front of the house of Allah in the name of freedom of speech.
Angry Imam in Norway
Even during Ramadan they visited Muslim mosques and burned the Quran with the protection of the Norwegian police. For such a long time we Muslims have been feeling powerless because we can’t do anything when our religion our honor and the book that we hold so close to our heart are being humiliated and disgraced.
But things will now change, God willing, we have found a way to stop the desecration of the Quran. The extremist organization that is burning the Quran is called “Stop the Islamization of Norway”. They have come to our Masjid twice and hung two banners. One stating Islam is barbarism and unwanted in Norway the other banner labeling our Masjid “Oslo Jihad Center” insinuating Muslims are terrorists.
They are burning the Quran and hanging up these banners as a symbol of eradicating Islam in Norway. They are hoping to provoke a reaction from the Muslims so they can justify their hatred and win support for their anti-Muslim propaganda.
We will give them a reaction but not the one that they want to see. We will not do anything that would tarnish the image of Islam and create problems for the Muslims. Rather, every time they burn the Quran symbolizing the extinction of Islam we will react by raising huge amounts of funds to spread Islam and establish the symbols of Islam in Norway.
We have, praise be to Allah, purchased the largest mosque property in the capital of Norway to establish the biggest mosque and dawa’h center in this country. The despicable individual burning the Quran thinks that he can extinguish the light of Allah with his attacks. But we will use him, a useful idiot, to fund the spreading of the message of the Quran in Norway. Every time they burn the Quran we will raise tens of thousands of dollars and we will distribute 100 copies of the Quran to the people of Norway.
Warning Highly Offensive
Praise be to Allah they want to extinguish the light of the Allah with their mouth but Allah refuses and uses them to perfect his light even though disbelievers hate it. Islam will be established in Norway. We will make these anti-Muslims the very reason for Islam to flourish in the country. So brothers and sisters please donate to generously in the path of Allah, defending the honor our religion and earning Allah’s pleasure and marvelous reward.
Senior Imam Yasir Qadhi uploaded a lecture on May 21,2022, “The Crisis of Marrying Outside the Faith” Muslims Marrying Non-Muslims Forbidden. Senior Imam Abu Ameenah Bilal Philips confirms the prohibition
The following are Excerpts are from Imam Yasir qadhi
I will Begin by stating the obvious and that is that there is no question from a legal Islamic perspective such a marriage is not a marriage there is just no room for reinterpretation. There is unanimous consensus that amongst all the scholars that when it comes to nikah a Muslim lady must marry a Muslim man.
We say unequivocally that any person who wants to come in and to change this law, we say no the Quran is explicit and the Sharia has come with what is called ijima or unanimous consensus.
Muslims marrying outside the faith is forbidden
So may Allah protect our families from ever having to face this crisis. It has been troubling my mind since yesterday the state of mind the most her emotional distress she was in the crisis and the trauma… And by the way these are members of our community practicing Muslims.

She was asking are these grandchildren going to be my grandchildren and I said “Marham wise yes but Sharia wise no” biologically yes they will be your grandchildren but not from the perspective of the Sharia

Females Marrying non-Muslims is Committing Adulatory for which the Penalty is Being Stoned to Death
Islam Q & Acontextualizes the understanding of killing the female that commits adulatory.
“The fornicatress and the fornicator, flog each of them with a hundred stripes. Let not pity (compassion) withhold you in their case, in a punishment prescribed by Allaah, if you believe in Allaah and the Last Day. And let a party of the believers witness their punishment”
It was narrated that Buraydah ibn al-Haseeb said: A woman from Ghaamid, a branch of al-Azd, came and said: “O Messenger of Allaah, purify me!” He said, “Woe to you! Go back and seek the forgiveness of Allaah and repent to Him.” She said: “I think that you intend to send me back as you sent Maa’iz ibn Maalik back.” He said, “What has happened to you?” She said that she had become pregnant as a result of zina. He said: “Is it you (who has done that)?” She said: “Yes.” He said to her: “(You will not be punished) until you give birth to that which is in your womb.” A man from among the Ansaar sponsored her [i.e., paid for her needs etc] until she delivered (the child). Then he (that Ansaari) came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said: “The Ghaamidi woman has given birth to a child.” He (the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)) said: “Then we will not stone her and so leave her child with no one to nurse him.” One of the Ansaar stood up and said: “O Messenger of Allaah, let me be responsible for ensuring that he is nursed.” Then she was stoned to death.
We find ourselves in a culture that is radically different from the culture from where we come.
This is my fatwa of a Muslim man marrying a Christian or a Jewish lady I think it’s not allowed in this land I think it’s only allowed in a Muslim Nation. this is my fatwa based upon my understanding of the Sharia. Ibin Abbas had the same fatwa that the concession for a Muslim man only applies when the society is Muslim. When the society is non-muslim we don’t have this concession. Therefore we have to tell our young men we are not allowing you to marry outside of our faith. This is the fatwa I give…
Stoning Muslim women to death. Then the Messenger of Allah Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) commanded to tie her clothes around her and then stoned her to death. Prophet Mohammad PBUH then offered funeral prayer for her. [Muslim].

This Hadith has relevance to the theme of the chapter as we see it. Moreover, it reveals that if a woman becomes pregnant after committing adultery, she will not be subjected to punishment immediately. Instead, the penalty [stoning] will take place after childbirth and weening of the child. This will certainly contribute to the remission of her sins and will also be a factor in offering the funeral prayer for her.
Stoning Muslim women to death can be purification of her soul. Book of Death by Toronto Imam Faisal Abdur-
If someone commits certain crimes in Islam and is found guilty by an Islamic Court one of the punishments is stoning to death. But for the believer there is an important benefit. This act of stoning now is also purification for the believer.
Here we see the compassion and wisdom of Prophet Mohammad PBUH. He let the child be born before the stoning to death of the woman, increasing the size of the Ummah.

Chapter 5, P. 22 Consoling the patients and showing kindness to one facing death sentence
5.1 Imran bin Husain MABPWH reported: A woman belonging to the Juhaina tribe came to Allah’s Messenger and she had become pregnant as a result of fornication. She submitted: O’ Messenger of Allah! I have done something for which punishment must be imposed upon me, so impose that. Allah’s Messenger called her guardian and said: Treat her well and bring her to me after delivery. He acted accordingly. Then Allah’s Messenger commanded to tie her clothes firmly around her and then stoned her to death. He then said her funeral prayer over her. The companions were upset that the Prophet said prayers for this woman. When they questioned the Prophet PBUH, he replied that she confessed and willingly accepted the penalty in this life and has gained purity in order to enter into paradise.

Islam is a religion of peace, and kindness in the manner of stoning women with compassion.
QUESTION
Is killing of a woman allowed for the sake of family honour if she is found guilty of anything that is not good for the family’s name and honour?
ANSWER
From time to time we hear claims from the kaafir west or the deviant east that everyone who kills his sister or daughter does so because of honour. That is because many laws let the killer off if he kills any family member for this reason.
Even though this claim may be true, we should not be deceived by these people and their claims. The purpose of these claims is to remove gheerah (protective jealousy) from the hearts of the woman’s family, and to open the door for women to commit immoral actions.

Islamic Method to Kill Homosexuals. In Islam there is no stipulated or preferred method to kill homosexuals. Rather, there is diversity of opinion on the appropriate method to be used. However, all schools of Islam, Shia and Sunni, agree that the killing of homosexuals is beyond debate or question. This has been Islamic doctrine since the time of the Prophet Mohammad PBUH.
Method for Killing Homosexuals Contextualized within the Islamic Geographic Context.
Man just falling thrown off a great height
There are 4 methods that are employed when killing homosexuals. The method depends on factors such as terrain, height of local buildings, the availability or abundance of fire wood, rocks or simply the preference of the local judge or Sharia council.
Imam Hamza Sodogar is a senior Shia scholar. To learn more.
If there’s a homosexual man, the punishment is one of five things. One, the easiest one may be, is to chop off their head, that’s the easiest. Second, burn them to death. Third, throw them off a cliff. Fourth, tear down a wall on them so they die under that. Fifth a combination of the above.
Man tumbling through the air from a great height
The ‘All of the above” comment is not to be taken seriously. The Imam was being humorous. This is clear to any that watches the video.
Tolerance for Diversity of Methods can be traced back to the Beginning of Islam
We learn from Islam Q & A. Ahmad (2915) narrated from Ibn ‘Abbaas
The Sahaabah (companions of the Prophet) were unanimouslyagreed on the execution of homosexuals, but they differed as to how they were to be executed. Some of them were of the view that they should be burned with fire, which was the view of ‘Ali (may Allaah be pleased with him) and also of Abu Bakr (may Allaah be pleased with him), as we shall see below. And some of them thought that they should be thrown down from a high place, then have stones thrown at them. This was the view of Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him).

Conclusion on Islamic Method to Kill Homosexuals.
We learn that within Islam there is diversity of opinion on the method. This makes it clear that Islam is tolerant of a permitted amount of diversity.

French Teacher Patty Beheading is it permissible? The answer could be yes. However, it must be contextualized. French teacher Samuel Patty’s beheading happened in the street of a Paris suburb. The Chechen refugee who beheaded him was shot to death by French police. This man did not attempt to escape. He sacrificed his life for Islam. He is a hero to some in the Muslim community.
Not all Muslims were pleased with the French Teacher Patty Beheading.
Some people were outraged by this act of beheading a teacher. Many labeled this to be a savage, barbarian act. Many were quick to denounce this act of beheading as unacceptable. It was condemned for all the regularly stated reasons. Others said this act of beheading does not represent the TRUE Islam. Others said the Moscow-born Chechen refugee who beheaded the teacher was misunderstanding.
Contextualizing the Islamic Perspective on Beheading those who Insult Islam or Prophet Mohammad PBUH.
There are classical books written that explain the religion of Islam. And these classical interpretations of Islam make it so objectionable to criticize God or the prophet or the scriptures of Islam, to the extent that they prescribe the death penalty for the critic.
Question: Are you saying that this is part of Islamic law then?
There is a report saying that the prophet Muhammad PBUH validated the actions of a person who took the matter into his own hands and slaughtered the critic.
Muslims have requested that blasphemy, ridiculing, insulting and disgracing against Prophet Muhammad be made a punishment, crime felony. Muslims can tolerate anything… But whenever someone insults Prophet Muhammad, they always react, they get revenge. They cannot control their sentiments. The word tolerance doesn’t apply here. Enough will be enough. It has been proven in history again and again. Whenever someone dishonored and insulted Prophet Muhammad, Muslims always first try to convince them not to do that. But if they do not abstain and ignore the collective demands of the Muslims, some young blood comes forward to make a score. The non-Muslim world, the courts, convicted and hanged them, but in the eyes of Muslims they are martyrs.(heroes)
Muslim Community has given Repeated Warning that Perceived Insult Would be Severely Punished with Execution.
Imam Yasir Qadhi
Interviewer
We also have to conclude that there is a strain or narrative within the Muslim community that uses Islam to justify such actions? (beheading for insulting Islam) And our history is replete with such devotion towards the messenger.
Response
Like all discussions, we have to start with the revelation. How does Islam ask us to respond to such deliberate provocation against the messenger of Allah?… We have to acknowledge that we do have two sets of principles or paradigms depending on our context. There is indeed a Mecca phase and a Medina phase.
Because again, in Mecca, no Muslim committed any act of vigilante justice against those that persecuted him. Now, obviously in the Medina phase, Muslims have political power and there is a very different set of rules.
The Beheading was not actually Condemned but the Political Effect was seen as Unfavorable.
Someone is insulting Mohammad and depicting him in cartoons. The whole Ummah is rising, saying we cannot take that! You see, I understand if a non-Muslim feels this way. Because they are not educated about the love, they are not informed about the love which Allah has placed into the hearts of every Muslim for the prophet Muhammad.
So, why are we blamed (for beheading French Teacher), rebuked, for showing this love?

Question
There is no one among us who is unaware of what the Christians say defaming the Prophet. What should be done?
Defaming the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is a kind of kufr. If that is done by a Muslim, then it is apostasy on his part, and the authorities have to defend the cause of Allaah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) by executing the one who defamed him. If the one who defamed him repents openly and is sincere, that will benefit him before Allaah, although his repentance does not waive the punishment for defaming the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), which is execution.
Question
With regard to the Muslim who impugns the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) in secret and conceals it, if he repents before he is executed, will Allah accept his repentance? Or does he have to announce what he did so that he will be executed before Allah will accept his return to Islam?
Ibn al-Mundhir (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
The majority of scholars are agreed that the one who impugns the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) is to be executed.
Al-Khattaabi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
I do not know of any of the Muslims who differed concerning the obligation of executing him.
Ma‘aalim as-Sunan, 3/295
Secondly:
If the one who impugned the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) repents and regrets what he did, and he comes back to Islam, that repentance will benefit him in his relationship with Allah. So before Allah he will be a believing Muslim. But the obligation of executing him will not be waived.
French Teacher Patty Beheading
Conclusion
According to what we learn in this article, Muslim leaders and Islamic doctrine sanction execution for insult. Insult cannot easily be separated from annoyance or disagreement. Therefore, if a Muslim disagrees with a statement, he can feel insulted. Insult is not usually a fact, but an opinion based on perception; however, people can be hunted and executed because of a perception.
