A Saudi Arabian court handed down a 120-lash sentence to a man who was simultaneously married to six women -- two more than the legal limit.

The man, whose name was not released, told the Jizan province court he did not know he was violating Shariah, Islamic law, by having more than four wives at the same time, the BBC reported Friday.

The defendant, a member of the Saudi Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, a religious police force, was also ordered to read two chapters of the Koran and was banned from leading prayers.

Should we have a similar type of system... would beat paying for all those prisoners to stay in jail...... for example if you are caught selling or distributing drugs-- 1000 lashes in downtown... and so on... if you murder someone like 10k lashes... in downtown (where the prisoner is lashed with an electronic whip kind of like from those sci-fi movies.... and then after the lashing is done they'be free to leave and go do whatever they want....So yeah would u be for or against such a system...

Erm, 100 lashes is essentially a death sentence, just an fyi...

Not really when you can force them to be locked up in a room all day and rape them whenever you want. Women aren't exactly equal in that society...

Mormons != Muslims Polygamy is illegal here anyway.

Looks REAL good on him:

The defendant, a member of the Saudi Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, a religious police force.

Ya... the guys on a police force that shoves religious adherence down your throat and backs it up by cropping you, gets nailed for breaking the same laws he should know.

Sounds like we have a winner for both the Darwin and Epic Fail awards

hrm, I didn't know it was that strict.. I thought it was just a way of saying things. Here's the translated citation, for those that care;

Sura 4, Verse 2:

"And if ye fear that ye will not deal fairly by the orphans, marry of the women, who seem good to you, two or three or four; and if ye fear that ye cannot do justice (to so many) then one (only) or (the captives) that your right hands possess. Thus it is more likely that ye will not do injustice."

I guess fundamentalists like the ones from the OP read it as max 4. Personally, I think it's a wrong interpretation, but meh.

And in Saudi Arabia having more than 4 is too.

They do the lashes.

Very few polygamists have been prosecuted. When they are, the prosecution usually focuses on an ancillary offense, such as child abuse or welfare fraud, rather than polygamy itself. A series of raids in the 1950s in which police arrested polygynist husbands resulted in a public relations disaster as people reacted to images of wives and children left without their fathers.

Most polygamists are careful not to "officially" marry more than one wife at a time, so a bigamy conviction is virtually impossible. Laws against cohabitation are vague, hard to enforce, and probably unconstitutional in any case. Any direct prosecution on grounds of polygamy would require one of the wives to act as a witness against the husband. Even if the evidence were easy to come by, there are so many practicing polygamists in Utah and nearby states that the state doesn't have enough money to investigate, try and jail them all
