Meriam Ibrahim: Husband 'not informed of release'

KHARTOUM: -- The husband of a woman sentenced to death in Sudan for abandoning Islam has told the BBC he has not been informed that his wife will be released.

Reports on Saturday said a Sudanese official had confirmed that Meriam Ibrahim, who gave birth in custody, would be freed in a few days.

But the foreign ministry said on Sunday Ms Ibrahim could only be released after a successful judicial appeal.

Her death sentence has sparked international outrage.

The lady was the daughter of a Muslim father and a Christian woman : the father left the family when the lady was a girl on only 6 years so that it was normal that her mother educated her in Christianity

The Shariah Law Court of Sudan has ruled that the child of a Muslim father MUST be also a Muslim otherwise it become a case of apostasy punishable by death.

Interestingly another and more famous person i.e. President Barack Hussein Obama is the son of a Muslim father who also left the family and the young Barack was then educated by his grand-mother as a Christian : he better stay away from Muslim countries where he too could face arrest because of apostasy

Islam came into existence about 600 years after Christianity and it is amazing how they imitate now Christian laws who were enforced in Spain about 600 years ago against Jews and Muslims.

Islam still has to go through a period equivalent to the Renaissance and the Enlightenment which made Western culture dominant....but in fact Islam had a brilliant culture during the 9th and 10th century of which the Greek and Arab knowledge - through the Caliphate of Cordoba - was transferred to Western scholars.

Christianity did not imitate Buddhism that came before it and Islam is not imitating Christianity. It is 2014 and there is no excuse in the past for the barbaric acts done in its name today.

either way you look at it, eventually religion will be like a disease and will end up killing most of the population through wars etc, it is just a matter of when,
