Burning to Death __socratesPageHistoryEdit Visual Text BURNING TO DEATH Is strictly forbidden by Muslim law. 'Ikrimah relates that some apostates from Islam were brought to the Khalifah 'Ali, and he burnt them; and when Ibn 'Abbas heard of it, he said, "Had they been brought to me, I would not have burnt them; for the Prophet said, 'Punish not with God's punishment. Verily it is not fit for anyone to punish with fire but God.' (Mishkat, c.v. part 1.)
