This is an amusing play on difference between describing Islam as a religion of peace and the practice of Sharia law which itself, on particular points, is abhorrent to western culture.
Has Rep. Ilhan Omar Committed a Stoning Offense?:
She is publicly Sharia-compliant. Will she ask to be stoned?
Excerpts from the linked article.
“Allah’s Apostle” is, of course, Muhammad, who did indeed carry out stonings. In one hadith he challenges a group of Jewish rabbis about stoning. The hadith records, amidst the barbarism and brutality, a final act of love and compassion:
The Jews came to Allah’s Apostle and told him that a man and a woman from amongst them had committed illegal sexual intercourse. Allah’s Apostle said to them, “What do you find in the Torah (old Testament) about the legal punishment of Ar-Rajm (stoning)?” They replied, (But) we announce their crime and lash them.” Abdullah bin Salam said, “You are telling a lie; Torah contains the order of Rajm.” They brought and opened the Torah and one of them solaced his hand on the Verse of Rajm and read the verses preceding and following it. Abdullah bin Salam said to him, “Lift your hand.” When he lifted his hand, the Verse of Rajm was written there. They said, “Muhammad has told the truth; the Torah has the Verse of Rajm. The Prophet then gave the order that both of them should be stoned to death. (‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar said, “I saw the man leaning over the woman to shelter her from the stones.” (Bukhari, vol. 4, bk. 56, no. 829)
Even the monkeys practiced stoning, according to another hadith:
During the pre-lslamic period of ignorance I saw a she-monkey surrounded by a number of monkeys. They were all stoning it, because it had committed illegal sexual intercourse. I too, stoned it along with them. (Bukhari, vol. 5, bk. 58, no. 188)
In western culture, comparing a woman to a monkey is enough to get you on the wrong side of most liberal teams.
