I was surprised there is no mention of what crimes make one eligible for the death penalty. 66.41.179.140 (talk) 01:37, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Islamic views on capital punishment section[edit]

This is just... such an oddly written section. It seems like a opinionated analysis with a third-person writing perspective than it does an encyclopedia entry.

SunnySydeRamsay (talk) 19:47, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I think this section should be removed. Islamic views on the death penalty vary far to much to be contained within this one small section-- at very minimum its far too ambitious. I will echo that I think this is opinionated as it basically seems to be strawmanning Islam with the title of the section. Something more specific to Pakistan's legal system as is detailed in the Crimes Punishable by Death section would be more appropriate. --Ex humanities major (talk) 06:14, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'll say a couple of things about this section -- First, the section, and this article in general, does very little to reference additional wikipedia articles that denote the importance of specific Islamic legal schools, and adjudication of law. I think this section should reference more releveant, contemporary figures within Islamic legal theory around the Pakistani state, and the specific schools of thought they follow if it is to stay. The Hadith referenced seems to be a fragmented quote, as it chops off the first part of the Isnad, and the section does nothing to carry out how this Hadith has been interpreted w/r/t capital punishment. Additionally, Hadith (as far as I know) is generally considered to be a somewhat unreliable, and information that is to be taken with a grain of salt. This is the purpose of the Isnad chain. 129.59.122.76 (talk) 17:31, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
