Islamic State Criminal Code Published




[From article]
“Blasphemy against Allah,” for instance, is punishable by death, according to the legal code provided by MEMRI.
Similarly, “blasphemy against the prophet Mohammed” also guarantees death—“even in the accuser repents,” according to the code. The same punishment is doled out for blasphemy against Islam.
Adultery also remains a capital crime under IS’ code.
An adulterer will face “stoning until death” if he or she was married at the time and “100 lashes and exile” if unmarried.
Sodomy and, in particular, homosexuality will also be met by death “for the person committing the act, as well as for the one receiving it.”
The act of “spying for the unbelievers,” which includes all those who do not adhere to IS’s extremist interpretation of Islam, will also result in death.
Murder and stealing will not only be punished by death, but the offender will also be crucified, the code states.
However, not every crime will get the offender murdered by IS.
Theft, for example, will be punished by cutting off an offender’s hand.
Drinking alcohol, which is banned under extreme Islamic law, will be met with 80 lashes.
