Fornyelse i islam?

Koranen indeholder masser af rituelle forskrifter – men er der noget, vi har overset?

Her følger to hverdagshistorier:  den ene er ret så triviel, den anden synes at antyde nytænkning i islam.

EXPRESS.de: “Mor til fire halshugget – i ærens navn? – Den 37-årige Ebtisam M., mor til fire, blev i forgårs halshugget i Kerpen-Horrem, Nordrhein-Westphalen. Hendes børn (6,11,14 og 16 år gamle) fandt hendes lig i en blodpøl. Desuden var hendes fingre skåret af. Hendes arabiske navn kunne antyde, at det drejer sig om en “æres”-halshugning med amputation. Chefanklager Alf Willwacher vil dog ikke udtale sig om karakteren af kvæstelserne. Mordkommissionen står indtil videre på bar bund i eftersøgningen, selv om den 41-årige mand til ofret aftenen efter ugerningen fjernede genstande fra boligen og blev hentet af en ven. – “Vi eftersøger ham som vidne, ikke som mistænkt” – Så hidtil savner man både en mistænkt og et mordvåben”. – (Skjoldungens oversættelse).

Til orientering og hjælp for det tyske politi, kan Hodjas Blog henvise til den autoritative manual i slige sager:
Allah revealed His will to the angels, saying: “I shall be with you. Give courage to the believers. I shall cast terror into the hearts of the infidels. Strike off their heads, strike off the very tips of their fingers.” (Sura 8, Verse 12)

Det samme service kan vi desværre ikke yde med hensyn til følgende fremgangsmåde, der synes udeladt fra samme lærebog:

ANKARA (AFP): “A 16-year-old girl was buried alive by relatives in southeast Turkey in a gruesome honor killing just because she reportedly befriended boys, the Anatolia news agency reported Thursday. – Acting on a tip-off, police discovered Medine Memi’s body in a sitting position with her hands tied, in a two-meter-deep hole in a chicken pen outside her house in Kahta town, Adiyaman province, 40 days after she went missing, the agency said. – A subsequent post mortem revealed that she had a significant amount of soil in her lungs and stomach, meaning that she was buried alive, forensic experts told the agency. – “The autopsy result is blood-curdling. According to our findings, the girl, who had no bruises on her body and no sign of narcotics or poison in her blood, was alive and fully conscious when she was buried,” one anonymous expert said. Medine’s father and grandfather have been formally arrested and jailed pending trial over her killing, the agency said. The father is reported to have said in his testimony that the family was unhappy she had male friends.

In honor killings, most prevalent in Turkey’s mainly Kurdish southeast, a so-called family council names a member to murder a female relative considered to have sullied the family honor, usually by engaging in an extra-marital affair. But the practice has gone so far as to kill rape victims or women who simply talked to strange men.  –  (Tips: Politically Incorrect og TB).
