Most (if not all) of Ghor'an is left for interpretation by an "authorized" person.
I met 1 of these people once and he said what Ghor'an means is to give the thieves a job or provide other things (like social justice) for them so they wont steal.
when Ghor'an said "Cut Off" does it mean by knife??
when the Arabs "cut off" the oil to the west back in the 70's did they use the hack saw? (to cut the oil/pipes)?
yet the same stupid morons translate things the way they like them to be... like the word "Spouse" which they x-late (conveniently) as "Wife" and many other mistranslations which I can even tell is wrong.
BTW (since I am not going to stick around).....
things like adultery can only be proved if there were 4 witnesses present at the time of the act!!
That is more than fair enough.
And whats more fair , is that you cannot force admission to guilt, you cannot use witnesses of questionable characters and many other things which make a conviction very hard.
of course when the stupid ppl followed their stomachs and below and gave their religions away this is what they get. regimes with bunch of bastards and monsters and subhumans as religious leaders.
I guess you cant have the cake and eat it too. (or was it Kate and Edith)?
