Does Sharia Law need to be updated?
I was studying how a country should be governed according to Islamic Law and although these Laws were optimal at the time the Quran was revealed I think it needs and update now after the progression of Science. The main thing I wanted to discuss was the punishment for Zina. Both adultery (cheating on your spouse) and premarital sex. The requirement in order to implement the hadd punishment is 4 witnesses that saw them during the ‘’penetrative act’’ itself. This method was probably the best during the life of the Prophet, but now this method is completely infeasible, and it is impossible to have 4 witnesses for that. In the middle east they put the ruling of 4 witnesses above undeniable reliable scientific methods. For example, a DNA test can reveal who the father of the baby is with 100% accuracy.
There have been many reported cases in the middle east where the father gets a DNA test and finds out the kid is not his and the wife has been cheating on him, yet the punishment will not be implemented because Sharia Law goes before 100% accurate DNA testing. Isn’t this ridiculous? We can even scientifically create a method that will almost completely eradicate premarital sex from society. How is this done?
Every Muslim man can be vaccinated at birth with a specifically modified and uniquely made non-harmful virus for that person. For example person 1 has Virus A, person 2 virus B etc.. Only the men get vaccinated. The women are the ones who get ''tagged'' by the men. Billions of different non-harmful viruses can be produced, each unique virus is for one individual man. Now these viruses can be created so it spreads through sexual intercourse like STDs. It can be modified so it spreads through oral, anal and vaginal intercourse. This means that each woman that has intercourse will be ’’tagged’’ by the specific unique virus that the person she had sex with carried. Through testing later doctors can with accuracy identify who she had intercourse with. We have the scientific knowledge to implement such system. We have the scientific knowledge to identify and track down the ’’sexual history’’ of every Muslim on earth. If such strict anti-fornicating and anti-adultery laws are created people will start marrying out of fear of getting caught and creating stable families again and ’’sleep around’’ culture will completely die out. What are your guys opinion about this? Does Sharia need an update?
