Going through Mohammed's History, one is bound to note that this fella mingled with Jews most of the time he took his business trips on behalf of his would be wife and thus he learnt a lot about the Jewish religion Judaism at the time. Remember this was the dominant religion within Jewish circles.

Muslims themselves have admittedly stated that they wholly appreciate hallow the first five books of the Bible mainly written by Moses of old Covenant. These Books they call the TORAH. If any of you go through these books you will notice that they contain a lot dos and don’ts (laws). It is from these books that Mohammed drew the Islamic laws. Islam is Judaism by extention.

It must however be noted by ardent students of the bible that most of these laws were ceremonial except for the 10 commandments which is a copy of the original one in the Heavenly sanctuary. Now the ceremonial laws were abandoned at the time Jesus Christ died on the cross clearly signified by the scene at the temple of the curtain that was rent in twain. The temple service of atonement was ended for the ultimate blood had been shed and need for animal offerings that were signifying the coming of the messiah was now vague.

Adherents of Judaism continued to practice theses services for they did not accept Jesus and to them the messiah was yet to come. Thus they clung to the laws that were vague. These are the same laws that Muslims continue to observe. Within these laws are to be found the directives for killing deviant persons, which is the subject we are discussing.

Now since Muslims do not channel any honors to Christ they like the Pharisees of old have waxed cold their years unto the teachings of Christ which have the power to deliver and are stuck to these laws which had their fulfillment in the coming of Christ.

Christ said “you have heard that it was said that an eye for an eye, but I say unto you that whosoever slaps you turn the other check unto him”.

Indeed many of us surely remember when Jesus demanded that he who is clean be the first person to cast a rock at the Mary Magdalene. We are to look upon our own selves and determine whether our actions are acceptable before God. We cannot be entrusted with the work of dealing with souls (judging and condemning) because we are equally wanting. For the Koran to continue to ask of Muslims to lynch ex-Muslims is in bad taste and archaic and Ungodly
