Saudi woman to get 10 lashes for driving a car

Oooh i see - If it a net positive it will be religion, if it's a net negative, it will be culture -- and then there's the Islamist position (more arbi than Maso),the religion is the totality of culture position -- maybe Meengla can add to our understanding

oh no........

and the thread will go for another 100 pages with same comments repeated dozens of times and same issues raised over and over again..

Why so defensive?? Why all the time in "defend" mode?? Why do you associate hate and fear of women with islam?

hitting a woman is really a pathetic punishment, and she was driving to feed her children. well said Ahmed.

I don't know how anyone could defend this cynically barbaric discrimination. This has absolutely nothing to do with Religion, the religious establishment know this and the Royal Family knows this, this laws are in place for their own political self-interest, namely to subjugate women and society so they can stay in power.

It is fuc...ed up I agree but it is not dumb. With each year the support for the religious clergy within Saudi society is declining. Soon they will be in the minority then the government will be free to nip and tuck at the rules.

Forcing radical change is a big mistake many countries have fell for.

Saudi reformists are fighting one of the toughest battles out there. We wish you guys success.

Well you know, She can't drive but she can be lashed -- one day the shoe will be on the other foot and all those "defenders" will get their just desserts.

In Islam woman has the right to do any job except some if she can do it within Hijab . during our prophet time they use to ride horses then why not car in this days ? i am totally surprise and bewilder reading this news . what kind of crime woman are committing by driving car ? in my knowledge at best they could have face some physical/genital problem due to driving car or motor cycle but Islamic rule are not violated by this . i hope Saudi ruler cancel her punishment and abolish this ridiculous law . my support and sympathy with the woman . Almighty Allah show us true path ameen .

How many lashes for just sitting inside the car and pushing the indicator signals or for honking the horn????

Am I the only one who sees a different, raunchy connotation to this? You perv!

I am trying to find out..................... rest assured though it wot be painful.
My cousin i s telling me he got like 30 so so for fighting with the Syrians and it was nothing. He says it was more of a humiliation factor. Anyways, still sounds retarded as punishment for driving.

Then why don't the muslim women who wear burqa follow these laws in countries where burqas are banned? Don't be so hypocritical.
ahan a very valid point i have been trying to get the ans from these people with no result !

When execution by beheading is done in public grounds for everyone to watch, I suppose this too will happen in public.

Mostly they whip the legs, some times upper part of legs and upper back. Although I have seen pictures of men getting whipped mostly on the butt.
