Pakistan Sentences Man to Death for Facebook Post

Taimoor Raza was sentenced to death by an anti-terrorism court in Pakistan for publishing “blasphemous” content on social media. Free speech is considered “terrorism” in Muslim countries.  Islam is quite literally the opposite of freedom and individual liberty. Sharia law is the polar opposite of Western law they cannot co-exist.

This is Islamic  jurisprudence in Muslim countries under sharia law. Those in the West promoting, protecting and advancing Islam – this is your future.

Pakistani sentenced to death for blasphemy on social media

The Nation, June 10, 2017 (thanks to Religion of Peace):

MULTAN: A minority Shiite Muslim was sentenced to death in Pakistan for sharing blasphemous content about Islam on social media, a government prosecutor said.

Judge Shabbir Ahmed announced the sentence for 30-year-old Taimoor Raza on Saturday in Bahawalpur in eastern Punjab province, according to Shafiq Qureshi. Raza was arrested last year for allegedly posting derogatory content about Sunni Muslim religious leaders and the wives of the Prophet Mohammed on Facebook.

Qureshi said Bahawalpur’s counter-terrorism force arrested Raza in April last year following a complaint that he was showing onlookers objectionable material on his cell phone at a bus terminal. He added that Raza had previously posted other blasphemous material on Facebook.

Pakistan is a predominantly Sunni Muslim country and the rivalry between Shiite and Sunni Muslims dates back to the seventh century when they had a disagreement who should be the heir to Islam’s Prophet Mohammed.

Under Pakistan’s harsh blasphemy laws, anyone accused of insulting God, Islam or other religious personalities can be sentenced to death.

Pakistan last year arrested 15 people, 10 Muslims and five non-Muslims, on blasphemy charges, according to a report issued by the independent rights group Human Rights Commission of Pakistan.
