ANALYSIS OF THE OBJECTIONS OVER HUDOOD ORDINANCES (1979) IN PAKISTAN
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study focuses on the objections made over Hudood ordinances 1979 in Pakistan. The study is significant as it investigates the nature of those objections. It is an attempt to highlight the need and justification of hudood laws and to remove the misunderstanding about these laws. This study comprises two parts. The focus of the first part remains on highlighting the major objections by the people who expressed their critiques in terms of not considering zina bil jabr (rape) as zina, denial of Rajm (stoning to death) etc. The second part deals with the objections of those who are influenced by western ideas and consider hudood laws against human rights. The study concludes with the understanding that the Objections on Hudood Ordinances are secondary in nature. None of these objections can be said to be in harmony with the spirit of the Quran and Sunnah.
