Adultery Punishment 100 Lashes Sharia Law: In today's modern era, when love is not found in a married relationship, people start looking for outside options. This decision weakens the strong bond of married relationships, but in many countries, extramarital affair is not a crime, while in some countries, having an affair outside marriage is punished worse than hell. Yes, there exists a country on earth where the husband or wife accused of having an extra-marital affair is publicly punished with 100 lashes. But why does this happen and what is the law that recognizes this barbarity? Let us know.
This heart-wrenching case has come to light from Aceh province of Indonesia, which is the only state in Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim-majority country, where Sharia i.e. Islamic law is applicable. Recently, a horrifying scene was seen at a public place here, where two women and two men were publicly whipped 100-100 times on the charges of extra marital affair. During this time, small children were also present in the crowd, many of whom got excited and shouted 'Hit harder!' Were shouting. During the punishment, a woman fainted and fell on the ground groaning in pain, but the law guards present there did not lose heart. Not only this, people had to be whipped even for minor 'physical intimacy' like hugging and kissing.
The fear of Sharia law, where minor mistakes are punished mercilessly.
Indonesia may be considered a modern country, but its Aceh province operates under special autonomy, separate from the rest of the country. After the 2005 peace agreement, Sharia law was strictly implemented here, which also applies to non-Muslims since 2015. Here, whipping or flogging in public is not a common thing but is a legal punishment. Apart from extra-marital affairs, playing cards, drinking alcohol, wearing tight clothes, or boys not offering Friday prayers are also considered big crimes. Recently, a young couple was given 21 lashes just because they kissed on TikTok Livestream.

Meeting at birthday party is also a crime, human rights organizations raised questions
The scope of this dreadful punishment is not limited to extra marital affairs only. On the same day, 8 other people were also given 16 to 21 lashes, whose only crime was that they had attended a birthday party together with the opposite gender (boy and girl). The administration of Aceh believes that such public punishment creates fear in the society and people reform. Although major human rights organizations like Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have strongly condemned this cruel practice, the local administration justifies it by calling it a part of its religious identity and discipline.
