This should make westerners warm up to Sharia law. Muslim Brotherhood leader Yusuf al-Qaradawi is so considerate!

Get this.

He wants to implement Islamic law in Egypt but not to worry. There will be no chopping of hands…. for five years.

Via MEMRI:

We should do things gradually. We should prepare the people, teach them. People have to learn. We have to make an effort to teach people the truth about Islam.

People do not understand the shari’a properly. We have to teach people the laws of the shari’a and explain them, before anything else. I think that in the first five years, there should be no chopping off of hands. This period should be dedicated to teaching things. A transitional phase… This should be a period in which we teach people the true laws of the shari’a. when we find food for all the hungry, schools for all the pupils, hospitals for all the sick, homes for all those who want them, wives for all the bachelors – then we can discuss the punishment for theft.

And the frog in the pot says, “Is it me or is it getting warmer in here?”
