Hudud are fixed punishments prescribed by Islamic law for certain crimes, such as theft, adultery, or drinking alcohol. These punishments are meant to serve as a deterrent and are considered mandatory in Islamic jurisprudence. The application of hudud requires strict evidence and conditions to be met.

What are the Islamic views on punishment?

In the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful. = Answer = The punishments of crimes have been divided into three kinds. They are Huduud (Islamic Legal Punishment), Qisas (Even Retaliation), and Tazir (penalties). It is necessary to know that crimes, which bring harm or loss to a human being, inflict injustice not only on the created but also create disobedience to the creator. Therefore, in every crime of this nature, the Right of Allah and the Rights of the Servants are intermingled, thus, one is being punished for both of the crimes. There are some crimes for which the Holy Quran and Sunnah have not fixed any punishment, instead have left it to the discretion of the relevant authorities. This punishment is called Tazir. As for punishments of crimes already fixed by the Holy Quran and Sunnah, they are divided over two kinds. Firstly, those in which the right of Allah has been declared to be predominant and the punishment for which is known as Hadd. Secondly, those which the Right of the servant of Allah has been adapted as predominant in accordance with the Shariah of Islam for which is called Qisas. In short, we can say that the punishment of crimes after having determined it to be a right of Allah is called "Hudud", and that which it has ordained as the right of the servant is known as Qisas and crimes the punishment of which has not been determined are called Tazir. When it comes to "Hudud", no Amir or leader is permitted to make the least change, alteration, reduction or increase in it. Neither does a change in time and place affect it any manner nor does the Amir or chief executive of the government have the right to pardon it. There are only five "hudud" in the Shariah. 1. Robbery 2. Theft 3. Adultery 4. False accusation of Adultery 5. Drinking wine, this is proved on the basis of Ijmah (Consensus). The way no Amir or ruler can reduce these punishments; very similarly, even an act of repentance cannot bring about an amnesty for the criminal as far as the punishment in this world is concerned. There is an exception that is, if the robber repents before being arrested and his conduct in dealings proves his repentance to be satisfactory, only then, the Hadd (Punishment) will be dropped. Repentance after arrest or before it is not acceptable. The punishments under "Huduud" are strict. The law of their enforcement is also strict and nobody is allowed to make intercession for it. Similarly, the completion of the proof is strict. If even a single condition is found or missing, the Hadd drops. In fact even the least doubt found in the proof will cause the Hadd to be dropped. Like "Huduud", the punishment of Qisas has also been fixed in the Quran, that is life be taken for life and wounds be retaliated by even wounds. Unlike "Huduud" in Qisas the accused killer after the crime of killing has been proved legally, is handed over to the guardian of the person killed who can at his discretion take Qisas and have him killed or forgive him if he so wishes. (Maariful Quran p.130- 134 v.3) Only Allah Knows Best

In Saudi Arabia what are the byzantine procedures at a religious court?

The Saudi Islamic Courts do not use procedures taken from the Byzantine Courts. The legal system that the Byzantine Empire used was based on Roman Legal Codes, whereas Islamic Courts are based on Shari'a Law. If by "byzantine procedures" the question means "difficult, highly complex or intricate and occasionally devious, or torturous procedures", that is in the eyes of the beholder. Shari'a Courts are based on an adversarial system which has plaintiffs and defendants directly representing themselves (without attorneys). There is never a jury and the judge is responsible for all decisions. The judge may consult with historic cases or the Qur'an, Hadith, and the Biography of the Prophet, but he need not do so. There are also no codes or case law to which the judge is compelled or requested to adhere to. Finally, there is minimal pre-trial discovery or action to find the grounds of the law suit and provide for an exchange of information. Oral evidence is more valued than written testimony and the judge can exclude written testimony if he believes that it is disingenuous. Confessions are a common form of testimony used. Furthermore, there is discrimination in the value of the testimony given. The testimony of a male is worth that of two females and the testimony of a Muslim always has priority over the testimony of a non-Muslim. Foresnic evidence and circumstantial evidence are not acceptable in Hudud cases (the cases of criminal law such as rape, murder, etc.) which makes proving these things more difficult. There are three main criticisms of the Shari'a Courts in Saudi Arabia. First, they concentrate almost all power in the hands of the judge. He is not constrained by anything other than his own views of the situation. Second, in many cases, written, forensic, and circumstantial evidence are all that an accuser has to plead their case. The exclusion or minimization of these forms of evidence effectively makes the case of a "he-said-she-said ordeal". Third, the inequality of value placed on testimony between different people because of their gender or religion makes the system problematic for women and minorities who really cannot refute accussations or statements made by a Muslim man.


Why did the Islamic World become much more conservative between the 1960s and 1980s?

If you were to look at the Arab World in the 1960s, you had a high degree of secularism. Most Egyptian women were uncovered, you had literary works that were critical of Islamic practices, you had countenanced discussions of minority rights, etc. You could actually believe that Conservatism was going to disappear. However, a vast number of changes occurred in the 1970s and 1980s, which led ultimately in a rise of Conservatism and increasing belligerence and fundamentalism. The change in the 1970s happened over the entire decade, such that the Islamic World of 1965 and the Islamic World of 1985 were quite different and the latter was much more conservative. Some particularly poignant events in my view were:1) Saudi Investment -- Saudi Arabia helped to build mosques across the Islamic World and places in the West, helping to further disseminate a more fundamentalist understanding of Islam. By the 1970s, the Saudis had raised (internationally) the first crop of children who were, on average, more conservative than their parents.2) Israel 1967-1973 - The Secular Arab States demonstrated that they could not remove Israel, which led many citizens to lose faith in the viability of these states to represent their will. When Egyptian President Anwar Sadat made peace with Israel in 1979, this really infuriated the Egyptian population (and that of the Arab World in general). When Islamists assassinated him in 1980, it helped gain them popular legitimacy.3) Turkey 1969 - The creation of the Millî Görüş movement which sought to move Turkey away from Secularism and towards Islamism, eventually lead by Erbakan in the 1990s.4) Iraq 1975 - While Saddam did not officially come to power until 1979, he was the primary actor in Iraqi politics as President Ahmed Hassan al-Bakr was ill for much of his presidency. While the Ba'ath party was historically non-religious, Saddam was more religious than his predecessors and helped to stoke sectarian tensions, especially against groups that he considered to be Non-Muslims (such as the Kurds or Marsh Arabs, even though many of them were Muslims) using Islamic rhetoric. (This is why the Kurdish genocide in the early 1980s is called the Anfal Campaign, after the 8th Sura of the Qur'an which talks about taking the booty of Non-Muslims.)5) Lebanon 1975 - The Lebanese Civil War strengthened the sectarian feelings of the various parties in Lebanon, which were divided along religious lines. As identities shifted from being common Lebanese citizens to Maronites, Sunnis, Shiites, Druze, Alawites, Melkites, or Orthodox Christians and the clerical leaders gained power in turn.6) Pakistan 1978 - Zia ul-Haq, who had a strongly Islamizing political leadership became the President of Pakistan. It was under him that equal rights for women in Pakistan was rescinded in order to allow for the "Islamic" laws of Zinaa and Hudud. Blasphemy Laws were promulgated and Imams were given more power and more license to act on local levels.7) Iran 1979 - The capture by Islamists of the Iranian Revolution (even though that revolution was actually caused by Communists and Feminists more than the Islamists). This capture set the tone for a new Islamist state and a modern Islamist State.8) Afghanistan 1979 - When the Soviet Union co-opted the Afghanistan government, the only strong Afghan resistance were the religious Mujaheddin who came to embody the strength of the Afghan people in resisting the Communists. Investments by the US in these Mujaheddin allowed them to grow further and become dominant in regional politics.
