Vote
Ok this maybe hyping the post up a lot more than it really should be hyped... But my first controversial rant of the season was going to concentrate soley on Filipenoes. Many will read it and perhaps say it is rude, vulgar and racist. Even when I read it over I was offended.
So I will put to a vote. Shall I publish it next week or not?
WARNING:
Ramdhan is over , and I feel a
rant diss coming...

It appears the beings in white are are staging an uprisng.

Death Row
Ok Abdul Gafer Hussein, as a Muslim Emirati man, what do you mean when you say "does not suit a developed society such as the UAE."? The death penalty in the UAE is not the same as the death penalty in the US and even though I agree with you that the UAE should not be executing anyone accused of making a serious crime, I disagree with what you are saying.
You see Mr. Hussein, the death penalty is a part of Sharia, Islamic law that has its root in prophetic Revelation. But the death penalty should only be used in a legal system that is 'just' , fair and accurate. This is why it cannot be applied in the US, because the people who most likely to be on the Death Row would be those who cannot afford good expenisive lawyers
plus it is a man made law...and everything man made is falible. In the UAE , the legal system here is a little questioning, especially when someone like Dallas Austin, because he is a celebrity, can get away with having Class A drugs...but Mr Kuwaity Al Nobody is going to have the book thrown at him because he has a drug that is the equivelant of alchohol.
So Mr Hussein the problem is not that the Death penalty doesnt suit such a developed society as the UAE, (because with that you imply that sharia is a primitive and backwards law) but the problem is that the whole legal system in our country as it is now , is not mature, just enough or developed enough to support the death penalty.
a prayer before dying?
How about a tic tac and siwaq before prayers...?
Please, especially now during Ramadhan
Narrated Jabir bin Abdullah: "The Prophet said, 'Whoever has eaten garlic or onion, should keep away from us, or should keep away from our mosque and should stay at home.' (Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Holding Fast to the Qur'an and Sunnah, Volume 9, Book 92, Number 458)"Some ramadhan advice ;-)
