An Open ‘Letter’ to the Archbishop of Canterbury
Most Reverend Sir:

In light of your recent comments about Shari'ah law, I should be very much obliged to receive your comments about the following distressing account of a poor lady in Saudi Arabia who is about to be beheaded for alleged 'witchcraft' as a result of a ruling in a Shari'ah court. Please see the following links:

International fury over Saudi Arabia's plans to behead woman accused of being a witch

Pleas for condemned Saudi ‘witch’

Are you proposing to intervene in this matter, are you proposing to try and save this poor lady's life?

It should be noted that Ms Falih is illiterate, and the confession forced out of her was a confession she was unable to understand.

It would be comforting to learn that you have done something to try and save this person's life, especially in view of your commitment to Shari'ah law.

Most sincerely

Saudi Arabia to Behead Woman for Witchcraft

DAILY MAIL: The Saudi Arabian king today faced international outcry over the planned beheading of a woman accused of being a witch.

Fawza Falih turned two men impotent, a court heard in the ultra-religious state where “performing supernatural occurrences” is considered an offence against Islam.

Judges were also told she cast a spell to bring about the return of a divorced man's ex-wife.

But international charity Human Rights Watch said King Abdullah's religious police had forced a confession out of her.

And they claim the judges who tried her in the northern town of Quraiyat never gave her the opportunity to prove her innocence in the face of "absurd charges that have no basis in law." International fury over Saudi Arabia's plans to behead woman accused of being a witch >>>
