Abstract

In this essay, we speak about stoning in Islam and Judaism. Stoning, which is one of the penalties, arose as a penalty for adultery, which is prohibited Sharia. Even though stoning was used in Judaism, sodomy and idolatry, as well as the methods used to carry out this penalty, were very different between Judaism and Islam. People might think that this punishment is worse in Islam because of the size of the stones and how they are used. Islam doesn't talk about stoning in the Quran, even though it's talked about in the Hadiths (sayings and stories about the Prophet Mohammad's behaviour by his close followers). Even if the person is accused of something bad, the punishment of stoning is against international human rights agreements. This is no matter what the reason or charge is, because the punishment of stoning is against these agreements. Stoning is still used as a form of punishment in the Muslim world, even though there are only a few examples of Jewish people being stoned in history. As a group, we can look at the different evidence, procedures, and obstacles to the stoning are execution.
