The first 2 punishment for related crimes are Sharia punishments, the rest are a recreation of your ugly imagination carefully planted in the mix to give an impression that they are punishments prescribed by the religion.
But for the sake of those who really question the extreme punishments in Islam, for the sake of knowledge and understanding. Punishments in Islam are extreme indeed but they are not meant to be exercised as in, the threat and scare of such extreme punishments in enough to deter anyone from committing those crimes in any Sharia society. The idea is not to punish but to deter! It's a matter of being proactive instead of being reactive
Its not in my intention to refer to Sharia. The punishments I posted seemed like 'good punishments' that can be given to crimes with no mortal loss if you support death penalty for rape.
But even before we get to the punishments, the Islamic Shariat system, we have pre-requisites in Islam and an ideal Muslim state is a true welfare state where the basic necessities of every one are met by the state. The state provides for everyone after which there is no room for excuses to commit robbery/decoity etc. because hunger/basic necessity are non existent.
Then work for an ideal Muslim state rather calling for Sharia at the drop of a hat...and to my knowledge I don't find any Muslim country , even the one that practices Sharia, an ideal Muslim state.
