Prostitution is considered as a grave sin among Muslims and hence is banned in most Muslim countries. So much so that in the latest occurring of Phul Nagar, a small town few kilometres away from Lahore in Pakistan, four women were punished for their alleged involvement in prostitution by forcing them to walk naked on streets by an angry mob.

Intriguingly, an inquiry into Quran suggests that there is no mention of discouraging or banning of prostitution and punishing prostitutes. I wonder where do these guys get all their ideas from, clearly they don’t get from their holy text.
