Sister Anti Islam dengan celuparnya membuat serangan terbaru ke atas Islam dengan membuat kenyataan media menghina-hina sistem perundangan Islam khususnya sebat sebagai bercanggah dengan hak asasi kemanusiaan. Kalau sudah begitu benci sekali kepada Islam, mengapa tidak tukar agama saja?Itulah soalan penulis kepada seorang ahli Sister Anti Islam. Jawapan yang diberikan ialah bukan mudah nak tukar agama di Malaysia ni. UMNO berdiri teguh menghalang pengharaman SIS. Artikel disertakan.
Whipping violates human rights

SISTERS in Islam (SIS) urges the government to review whipping of women as a form of judicial punishment by the syariah courts. Whipping constitutes further discrimination against Muslim women in Malaysia and violates constitutional guarantees of equality and non-discrimination.
Only Pahang, Perlis and Kelantan provide whipping of women under their Syariah Criminal Offences Code.
Whipping of women under syariah criminal offences legislation also contradicts civil law where women are not punishable by whipping under Section 289 of the Criminal Procedure Code. Whipping of men, meanwhile, is limited by age.
Nor is whipping for consuming alcohol considered proportional to the gravity of the offence. There is no consensus among Muslim scholars on the range of crimes for which whipping is prescribed, nor on whether women should be whipped.
Whipping as a form of punishment also violates human rights principles, in particular the right to be free from cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment.
