he means 4 adult men should witness such a thing (penetration) and testify against it for that rule to be applied. and since nobody actually does that in front of 4 other people. that actually never happens.

 

here is the same in Iran, but as far as I know they never ever used that rule. for the simple reason I explained. you hear in western media about stoning someone to death and more and yeah that's within the rules but only because they are obsessed to have it but they never use it and they never want to use it. specially in the 21st century

I can imagine especially when you're as filthy rich as Brunei's sultan, and actually putting insane stuff like this into practice might make you lose your assets and investments  

 

By the way, specifically 4 adult men? If 3 adult men and 1 adult woman sees it, it doesn't matter?

Yes  in Islam the witness of two women is equal to the testimony of one man. so that should be 3 men and 2 women !

 

they justify such "rule" by saying women are more emotional and sometimes can't be trusted in matters of death and life.

Yeah, people who create these rules don't sound overemotional at all

those created Islam million years ago ?   or those created the "Islamic Republic" in Iran 40 years ago ? (even though Iran was still Islamic even before that but court rules were a bit different)

 

there is a famous video of Khomeini (the founder of Islamic Republic) when he was on plane on his way back to Iran after 15 years of exile while everybody was nervous because there were rumors that Shah's air force will shoot the plane down. a foreign journalist asking him "how you feel about being back in Iran after so many years" you would expect a bit of emotion but his answer was just one word "nothing" the guy was emotionless

Anyone who creates rules like "women count for less than men" and "it's ok to murder people if they have different preferences"

You know that was quite an upgrade at the time, before that they would bury infant girls alive in Arabian peninsula.

 

the biggest problem is still using the exact same rules right now, in a different world.
