Have You Heard about the Stoning Death of Du’a Khalil Aswad?

I read about it in the past few days and wrote about it here:

What Kind of World Do We Live In?

Basically a 17 year old Iraqi girl was dragged into the streets and stoned to death as an "honor killing" because she was seeing a boy of a different faith.

wtf?

Ya Allah... this will not happen if they really understand the Al-Quran.

Hope Allah will forgive them.

True. But why aren't more Islamic leaders speaking out against this misinterpretation?

Sure you hear about this from time to time Leaders Speak Out, but there should be a constant stream of condemnation.

They don't together fight for their right. That is the problem.

However, some of them did it. For example,

Ahmadenejad- Irans' President
Dr. Mahathir Mohammad- Malaysia's ex-prime minister

She was only 17 years old and still had a lot to learn. - I guess they taught her good.

So much for believing in peace
