3. The topics covered in these tales are pretty close to reality. For example, in “The Tale of The Three Apples” a husband kills his wife because he suspects her of cheating. In Islam, we still find women being put to death for cheating on their husbands. (http://www.islamicperspectives.com/Stoning.htm)
"...If anyone kills a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all people. And if anyone saves a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all people" (http://islam.about.com/cs/law/a/c_punishment.htm)
Through the stories we noticed that people who are responsible for the death others will receive the death penalty. For example, in “the hunchback’s tale” where four different people were going to be hung because they were found guilty in the death of Gobo. I don’t feel that those from an Islamic country would be offended by these stories as not much if anything has changed. The examples I’ve pulled from the tales could have come from one of their own newspaper headlines.
