In the spirit of fair inquiry, let us consider this in a larger context: The Qur’an has over six thousand verses. There are less than 10 verses that discuss punishment. 6. But what about drinking wine and apostasy? The Qur’an does not prescribe any punishment for drinking wine or apostasy. Indeed the Qur’an shows little concern to enforce the hudud Allah through the modality of fixed and mandatory punishment. The whole idea of hudud in the sense of fixed penalties is, in other words, a juristic construct of a latent origin that stand at odds with a holistic reading of the text.”
