Many years ago, a woman from the Saudi Royal Family was put to death after being convicted of adultery. The West was horrified at what they considered a babaric law. Appeals from all over the Western World poured in requesting for defferement of sentence.
The West would be horrified once again with the following quotations from the Bible.
John 8:4 "This woman was caught in adultery in the act"
John 8:5 "Now Moses in the law, commanded us that such should be stoned"
In Islam as well as in Christianity, it is difficult to convict an adulterer. Islam requires four credible witnesses, which is difficult to find. As for Christianity, only a person free of sin can throw the stone. The Bible says "He who is without sin among you let him throw a stone at her first" John 8:8 which is also difficult to find.
This is one place where Islam and Christianity have a common penal code.
