Don't execute 8 months pregnant Mariam Yehya Ibrahim for being Christian

Don't execute 8 months pregnant Mariam Yehya Ibrahim for being Christian

Jeni Fa · Saturday, May 17th 2014 at 11:51AM · 2186 views
Mariam Yehya Ibrahim, a Sudanese mother, doctor and Christian, has been sentenced to flogging and death unless she recants her Christian faith. She is 8 months pregnant and has a two-year-old son. Please, join the international community in asking Sudan not to execute her for being a Christian.

Ibrahim is charged with adultery on the grounds that her marriage to a Christian man from South Sudan is considered void under Shari’a law, for which the penalty is flogging. She’s also charged with apostasy, or abandonment of religion, for which the penalty is death.

Mariam is the daughter of a Christian woman and Muslim man. She was raised Christian after her father left. However, Sudanese law mandates that children born to Muslim fathers are considered Muslim.

The fact that a woman could be sentenced to death for her religious choice, and to flogging for being married to a man of an allegedly different religion is abhorrent.

Call upon the government of Sudan to respect the right to freedom of religion!

To:
Government of Sudan
Save Meriam Yahya Ibrahim
Sincerely,
[Your name]

jeniFa again ------ thank you for this interesting "news item"

however, i cannot sign a petition that reminds me of Fox "News" Journalism

--- Headlines and News can be misleading and even false to Fox "News" like conditions of this case?

*********************************************************************************************
this lady in the "news"----is --Mariam Yehya Ibrahim

Mariam is the daughter of a Christian woman and Muslim man. She was raised Christian after her father left.

so mariam is a christian ALL her life! True or False

she lived and went to school in what Country? ------------Ethiopia, USA, or Congo?

she married her husband of at least 2-3 years where?------Ethiopia, France or southSudan?
*****************************************************

Facts I do know!

In Most Muslim Nations there are people that have Fathers that are Muslim and Mothers that are Not.

In Most Muslim Nations ALL people are EDUCATED of the 1434+ Year Laws of AlQur'aan and the Sunnah of Mohamed(saw).

In Most Muslim Nations ALL people are EDUCATED to UNDERSTAND that if a Muslim Daughter wants to Marry a nonMuslim Man
--- she can go live in the nation of her husband----WITH the blessings of mom/dad/grannie/grandpa etc.

In Most Muslim Nations ALL people are EDUCATED to UNDERSTAND that if a Muslim Daughter wants to Marry a nonMuslim Man
--- Living in that Muslim Nation MIGHT not be an EDUCATED thought..

IN MOST NATIONS on Earth, a paralyzed husband from the waist down CANNOT conceive a child.

Is it possible that this lady has lived a life of deception to her Employer in Sudan, and her husband and she is being Proscecuted for Espionage and Prostitution AND not for her LIFELONG Christian faith?

@Rob,

..."Is it possible that this lady has lived a life of deception to her Employer in Sudan, and her husband and she is being Proscecuted for Espionage and Prostitution AND not for her LIFELONG Christian faith?"...

Anything is possible, but why do you refute the validity of this petition? Is it not plausible that Christians are being persecuted in Islamic nations due to their faith?

NO Christian is Being Persecuted by AlIslaam

the Laws of any Nation must be Respected

the Laws of another Nation DO NOT have to be laws of the Nation You might travel from

if One is Christian goes to The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, that person cannot Drink Alcohol, or PUBLICALLY state that the Creator of Adaam(as) had a son..........

OR
----USA allows gays--------------------Kenya does not
----USA allows abortions--------------Sudan does not

I do not even understand Who, What, Where of this Flight 370 news account

and Medically how does a man with No usage of lower extremities produce sperm for fertilizing the egg of a female like Dr. Mariam Yehya Ibrahim....

Point(s) noted. The wedding picture that signed a pregnant woman's death warrant: Sudanese Muslim doctor to be flogged and hanged... for marrying a Christian

again,

is the picture 3 YEARS old---supposedly this so-called invalid father has a 2+ years old child Martin?

EVERY nation, EVERY employer in the WORLD, asks you are you married, single?

EVERY nation, EVERY employer in the WORLD, asks you do you have dependents?

EVERY nation, EVERY employer in the WORLD, asks you where do YOU LIVE?

and EVERY HOSPITAL in the WORLD asks who is Father and Mother of CHILD........

this is a Fox news Flight 370 story jeniFa

but of course the headlines are great --- NOTHING of the story makes sense--

I would agree SHE is a Christian, or African animist

---- southSudan is full of them---but that is another nation...

was she fleeing the war in southSudan?

was she working in the hospital?

and why is an invalid childbearing----MEDICAL miracle?

Jeni Fa Monday, May 19th 2014 at 12:57AM

@Rob

It does rather suspicious now that you have pointed some things out. Lol


Jeni Fa Monday, May 19th 2014 at 1:47PM

Oops... Sounds rather suspicious now is what I meant...


powell robert Monday, May 19th 2014 at 9:39PM


now we have a NEW name?

“The sentencing of Meriam Yahya Ibrahim Ishag is an abhorrent violation of fundamental freedoms and universal human rights,” Shaheen said.

Senator Shaheen because Mrs Ishag's invalid Husband

---- “Daniel Wani, a U.S. citizen since 2005, went to Sudan last summer to arrange for his wife and child to move to New Hampshire, where the Wani brothers immigrated in 1998 after fleeing the war-torn African country.

---- again ---- Fox News

Jeni Fa Tuesday, May 20th 2014 at 8:53AM

I see this lady wants to flee the country. Perhaps being with child will help her by delaying the sentencing long enough for International Community to rescue her, eh? I do not wish for her to die, but that the God of Mercy reign and prevail upon the hearts of her government to let her live in peace, Amen!

powell robert Tuesday, May 20th 2014 at 7:55PM


I am an American Conservative and agree with Many Americans that some American crimes are to be punished with death.

If Mrs Ishag's is one of those HIV/AIDS spreaders in Africa
--- I believe that is a crime that should be of capital punishment-----

Let her receive her punishment in Peace and let her Meet her Lord when her Lord calls her.





Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Tuesday, May 20th 2014 at 9:53PM

Robert,

Where in the article did it mention anything about HIV/AIDS?

Jeni Fa Tuesday, May 20th 2014 at 10:38PM

@ Deacon

You have to familiarize yourself with the way Rob speaks, because he doesn't speak literally a lot if times but speaks on principle. If the lady breaks a law in her country, he's saying it's more or less up yo her own country to deal with her based upon their own laws.

Lol

powell robert Wednesday, May 21st 2014 at 7:28PM


sorry to respond to a commentator on your post jeniFa

but

there is NOTHING in the Article that makes SENSE

1. how an AMerican Citizen living in New Hampshire that is paralyzed can IMPREGNATE any woman let alone one named Dr. Meriam Yahya Ibrahim Ishag

2. how, when, why..

3. I have KNOWN Lots of Sudanese in America in the past 50 years---I assure you the very religious, somewhat religious and not religious -- Muslim or Christian STAY in America if given a Visa.......

so yes --- I can surmise ALA article of Foxy News Style that Mrs. Irsag was COMMITTING adultery, THAT we KNOW for sure----she is PREGNANT--- not with Daniel Wani--a paralyzed New Hampshire citizen BUT with those that may agree with her Doctorate in BSing...........

Jeni Fa Friday, May 23rd 2014 at 2:13PM

@ Rob,


..."there is NOTHING in the Article that makes SENSE..."

I think you are reading the article from the wrong colored glasses. Try the red rose colored ones that fools in love where and then things make a lot more sense. Lol



Jeni Fa Saturday, May 24th 2014 at 12:52PM


Thank you for signing the petition entitled Save Meriam Ibrahim, Don't Hang her to Death for Her Faith. This email acts as your signature receipt.

powell robert Sunday, May 25th 2014 at 12:44PM


Title of this blog is also confusing Hanging, and Pregnant?

either form of execution will be after 2 years of Birth of her child---so she can nurture the child

Methods of Execution are Variant in Sudan---you may want to get another petition for other than hanging.

Stoning.

In Sudan, execution can be carried out by stoning for hadd offenses. [6] The execution is carried out by a crowd throwing stones at the victim, who is buried up to her chest with her hands tied. [7]

Hanging.

In Sudan, execution may be by hanging or by other methods. [4] Amnesty International’s reports during the past few years suggest that hanging is the predominant method of execution in Sudan. [5]

Other.

Retributive sentences may be carried out “in the same manner in which the offender caused death.” [8]

Comments.

The punishment for armed robbery is death “with crucifixion;” the crucifixion – a hudud punishment - is a display of the offender’s body following the execution, intended to draw attention to the crime and its punishment. [9]

Jeni Fa Tuesday, May 27th 2014 at 8:15AM

@ Rob,

There are several petitions circulating on the internet. I will pay close attention to the others though to find out the language they're using for punishment.
