They tie usury very firmly to jews, but haven't actually defined it (yet). They even have a special word for it. Disbelieving - if you are given a chance to convert to Islam and you do not- it's off with your head basically. They can chop your hands and feet off and crucify you. Everything is so specific: they will cut off your opposite hand and foot and then crucify you. Illegal sex is any sex out of wedlock and sodomy obviously. And if a man accuses a woman of "unlawful" sex, he just needs 4 witnesses and then it's a good whipping or stoning. Stoning to death is if you are married and commit unlawful sex (yes, they use the word commit) and whipping is for unmarried women accused of unlawful sex.
And if a man wants to accuse his wife of unlawful activity, he just bears witness 4 x and that is equal to 4 witnesses.
What really stands out to me is how they "prove" Allah is real. It's along the lines of: the sun rises every day and sets every night so obviously he is real. It rains sometimes, he makes it rain, so how can you deny he is god? That sort of thing.
Thanks!!
