Sharia Court Convicts Priests of Blasphemy for Baptising Muslims

From Creeping Sharia:


Sharia Court Convicts Priests of Blasphemy for Baptising Muslims

They tell you it’s a religion, of peace. They tell you sharia law doesn’t apply to non-Muslims. They’ll tell you…anything you want to hear. See what they do. via Sharia Court Convicts Priests of Blasphemy for Baptising Muslims « Fr Stephen Smuts.
The All India Christian Council has condemned an indictment issued by a Sharia law court in Kashmir that charges two priests with blasphemy by enticing Muslims to convert to Christianity.
On 11 January 2012 Muslim leaders in the Northern Indian state issued a statement saying that “it was proved beyond doubt that the accused” the vicar of All Saints Church in Srinigar, the Rev Chander Mani Khanna of the Church of North India, “along with other accomplices was luring Muslim people to change their religion.”
A second priest, Fr. Jim Borst, a Roman Catholic missionary who has worked in Kashmir for 46 years, was also charged with converting Muslims to Christianity.
“The Kashmir situation is going through a critical phase and if such elements are not brought to book it will have a serious and negative impact on the (Kashmiri Muslim) society,” the Muslim leaders said.
“It is shocking and surprising that the state government was allowing such activities. Kashmir society will not tolerate such activities at all and we stand united against such elements,” Mufti Muhammad Nasir-ul-Islam said. The sentence from the court would be announced shortly, he added.
They are required to perform dawah and their goal is to convert others. But the well-honed ideology punishes those who leave Islam and those who try to convert others from Islam.
