Taseer murder case: Qadri sentenced to death

Its not about being against or in favour of death penalty. This is just a new thing by west (defenders of human rights).

Law of Allah are there - which include death penalty. In other countries (non muslim ones) law of death penalty are in practice aswell.

The point is - that law of death penalty should be exercised by state (even in islamic states), rather than individuals.

Open question to all Muslims who are against Death Penalty/ Capital Punishment.

So are you questioning Allah's infinite wisdom in favor of your limited one? If Allah has ordered us to deal with certain crimes/sins with specific punishments, how can mortals like us debate Allah's sagacity? Just want to know your PoV on the issue. Specifically if possible.

ahhh..so he was defender!...brother i think u need to know that he murdered a person..in presence of law, he should consulted law instead and let the court decide what was right or not..he broke law of state..he should be treated same way...
PS: WE ALL ARE MUSLIMS AND WE ALL RESPECT PROPHET (PBUH)

Shame on our ATCs!!!! for exonerating Ajmal Pahari, Shame on our judiciary for not doing anything about NRO! But when it comes to a ranger who killed an armed dacoit looting civilians in a park in braod daylight, it takes a few weeks to announce capital punishment. And when the blasphemer is roaming around scott free, the judiciary does nothing. When a man takes a stand against it, he is awarded death penalty with such certitude...

I bet the Quaid and Allama are not happy on this. May Qadri reside in paradise after his martyrdom. Ameen

True testament of decadence in our judicial system.
there could be law and order problem within the country cuz people might start demonstration against the punishment.

but who was Salman Taseer trying to play with the laws of Holy Quran and Sunnah????

Qadri wont be too bothered about the death sentence...instead i can imagine him looking forward to it........
if they really wanted to punish him....they should have given him life sentence.

I know ur trying to say he's going to heaven, but jsut so you know he went AGAINST the Quran and was a murderer, life sentence would be to less a punishment

Very soon InshaAllah.

(Reuters) - A Pakistani court sentenced to death on Saturday the killer of the governor of Pakistan's largest province after he had called for reform of a law against blasphemy, a defence lawyer and state-run media said.

Taseer was an outspoken critic of predominantly Muslim Pakistan's blasphemy law and Qadri is viewed as a hero by many people who thought Taseer himself was a blasphemer by calling for the law's reform.

Qadri had said he was enforcing divine law by murdering a blasphemer.

The killing highlighted a growing gulf between conservatives and more liberal elements in society.

Qadri's supporters took to the streets to denounce the sentence soon after it was handed down at a hearing in a jail where he is being held in the city of Rawalpindi.

"By punishing one Mumtaz Qadri, you will produce a thousand Mumtaz Qadris!" one man shouted through a megaphone outside the jail.


The court handed down two death sentences for murder and terrorism to Qadri, who has seven days to file an appeal, state television reported.

Several hundred supporters of Qadri blocked a road outside the jail after the sentence was handed down and chanted slogans. Some recited verses from the Koran while members of the hardline Sunni Tehreek religious group waved their party's green and yellow flags.

A Qadri supporter, wiping tears from his face, said: "We don't accept this. We don't accept this."

Police were deployed at the jail gate to prevent any break-in. After Qadri was sentenced, the judge left through the back door.

In Rawalpindi's Liaquat Bagh area, where former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was assassinated in December 2007, about 1,000 angry Qadri supporters blocked a main road with burning tyres.

Shouting slogans against the government and the judge who sentenced Qadri, they forced shops to shut down. Stick-wielding protesters attacked passing vehicles.

"This decision was made to please the Jewish lobby," said Sahibzada Ata-ur-Rehman, a leader of the Sunni Tehreek.

Later, about 1,000 people protested against the sentence in the southern city of Karachi.

"Don't push us towards violence, because we're ready to give our lives for this," said Shahid Ghauri, a Sunni Tehreek leader, as he addressed the crowd.

"We reject this American decision!" he said as protesters raised their hands in agreement.


Liberal Pakistanis and rights groups believe the law is discriminatory against the country's tiny minority groups, and its vague terminology has led to misuse.

bloody hell.

Why, you sound so surprised.

Perhaps those in denial got to you that a thing as extremism is alien to Pakistan. Do you remember all the news coverage on mass protests in Pakistan at the killing of Osama? Existence of such protests too keeps getting denied all the time. The flower-shower of Qadri at the time of his apprehension was also toned down by so many... to achieve what only they must know.

But irrespective of how insignificant this denial may look, it is certainly going to take everyone's notice away from the monster that is quickly reaching adulthood. What happens then, we can not imagine, for it is already unimaginably bad.

And then there are those who bemoan the quiet ones... saying the public is not raising its voice against the extremism, as if the public is some unseen neighbor and they themselves are not part of it.

The Qadri and OBL supporters do understand that they are part of the public, and they are active.

No surprises, they are also winning.
