There is no indication of what they were doing. They may have simply been holding hands, or kissing. Or they may have been doing something actually immoral. In any case, there is no redemption or actual mercy in Islam; they had to be killed.
“KSA executes 2 Bangladeshis for ‘immoral act,’” Daily Star, October 16, 2026:
Saudi Arabia executed two Bangladeshi nationals on Wednesday after convicting them of what authorities described as an “immoral act” inside a mosque in Makkah….
The executed Bangladeshis were identified as Nazerul Islam Abdul Basir and Siti Akhtar, according to a statement issued on October 14 by the Saudi Ministry of Interior and carried by the state-run Saudi Press Agency (SPA)….
According to the ministry, the court found the charges proven and sentenced them to death under ta’zir, a form of discretionary punishment under Islamic law, citing the gravity of the offence and the violation of the sanctity of the time and place….
The executions were carried out in the Makkah region on October 14.
The official statement did not specify the precise nature of the act, identify the mosque or provide details about when the two Bangladeshis were arrested.

Well, in Bangladesh, they violently persecute anyone who doesn’t follow it. Here were 2 devout Bangladesh muzzie who did, and this is what they found out in Mecca, of all places
This ought to teach Bangladeshis a lesson about sucking up to islam, but I doubt that it will
tgusa says
When will people learn? Saudi Arabia or any other muslim country is the last place on Earth that you want to be.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Unless you are Muslim, which they were. But they were pretty moronic, assuming that public displays of affection are okay in a country which until recently was extreme in its implementation of shariah. The Saudis would probably have left them alone had they done it anywhere else, but they chose to do it inside a Meccan mosque, which made it too provocative even for a liberalizing country like Saudi Arabia

The claim that executing a couple for kissing is not “extreme in its implementation of shariah” is pretty odd–unless you mean that this is orthodox Islam.

One report said that they were newlyweds celebrating their honeymoon in Mecca, and hubby kissed wifey on the forehead
That said, there is no country I loathe more than Bangladesh, so I’m glad that this happened. Although the right thing for Riyadh to have done would have been to stamp their passport something like “indulged in immoral conduct”, and then deported them back to Dhaka. They would have had a tough time finding visas anywhere else
Their bodies have been returned to Dhaka

“One report said that they were newlyweds celebrating their honeymoon in Mecca, and hubby kissed wifey on the forehead”
It is nothing less than outright murder.

Agreed. I dislike Bangladesh, as well, but lauding an even worse Shari’ah state for murdering this pair is pretty perverse.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
I disagree w/ Graven here. Saudi Arabia has been on the right trajectory for over 10 years now. Bangladesh has been in the opposite trajectory. I would never voluntarily visit any muslim country, but if someone put a gun to my head and forced me to pick one of these 2 to visit, I’d pick KSA
In Saudi Arabia, while there are major restrictions on what people can do, they no longer get targeted for what they are – if they are non-muslim. Not true in Bangladesh, where just being a Hindu is enough to get one murdered. In Saudi Arabia, a Hindu can put his head down and go about his business, and nothing will happen to him. The Sri Lankan case where a Hindu ultimately had his death sentence struck down was welcome, and the Saudis could use some improvements in their legal system so that muslims who try to frame non-muslims have consequences for their actions as well
gravenimage says
Infidel–with all respect–I don’t believe that murdering a non-violent couple is “on the right trajectory”–not sure why you are applauding this barbarism.
And the idea that you are in no danger in Saudi Arabia if you are not Muslim could not be more mistaken. Women are often prosecuted for daring to report being raped, and non-Muslim workers being enslaved.
Bangladesh is also appalling–as is most of Dar-al-Islam. Islam is a vicious creed wherever it is imposed.

The evil irony is…..all of the demonic immorality which goes on in islime by rabid muzzies following their book of filth.
Raping babies, mutilating babies, raping their daughters, nieces, cousins, little boys, and any infidel girl they can entrap or abduct. Raping their own wives if they choose.
Buying children to rape as they please, multiple times daily and calling it “marriage.” Raping the dead.
Selling slaves for rape.
Whatever two consenting adults…one male, one female…do is nothing compared to what muzzies do every day to fulfill their devotion to satan the devil.

Yes, disgusting religion and people, so why on earth do civilized countries keep bringing them in? There is a method to their madness I’m afraid

They are fulfilling their “father’s desires.” Thrown from heaven, angry and determined to completely destroy mankind, every day, things grow worse. Only Armageddon will end it.

Another reason both Qatar and Saudi Arabia should not be viewed as “friends” or allies of America. The lunatic laws they apply to people who visit their land ,shows how Islam can not be trusted .What they do to Moslems in their own lands pales in what they would do to foreigners non-believers in distance lands .They both finance terror from a far ,both double deal western countries at every turn .All Moslem lead countries can not be trusted and view as the enemy .America had a “cold war ” with Russia for about 45 years from the end of WW11 to about 1990.We should be wagering a kind of cold war with Islamic countries ,this is why we need energy sources that give America energy independence .Without the need for Middle Eastern oil and natural gas we would not have to appease these savages. They would be broke , we do not need them immigrating here we should not need anything from them. You make a deal with the devil dealing with them ,no deal or treaty is worth the paper it is printed on when Moslems are involved .

Does islam have any transgression that doesn’t catty the death penalty?
WPM says
Yes robbing raping and murdering unbelievers in allah the pagan moon god name get great high praise especial if done in infidel, s country .Grooming English girls ,stealing western countries welfare benefits and general jihad in western countries .If you kiss your new bride on the forehead while you are visiting a Mosque in a sharia law base country off with both your heads .Show a little innocent affection to your spouse in public angers the pagan moon god allah tell his followers he gets the hebby jeebies .He is very weak he is scared of black dogs ,music ,art ,crosses ,and Jews ,he commands his followers to destroy these things because he is helpless to do anything himself. If you follow all his rules and die murdering unbelievers to go to pagan whore heaven if you are a man .according to Islam most women go to hell?

WPM, these are not “transgressions” in Islam, but sacralized as Jihad in the path of Allah.

> Saudi Arabia executes Bangladeshi couple for ‘immoral act’ inside mosque
And the execution will take place in a mosque. Probably the same mosque?
Talking with a not-family-related woman in Saudi Arabia can land you in jail, even though you are talking in public with a space of 2 meters between you. But inside the house, the Saudis often rape and abuse the housemaid females who are not related at all. For the sake of Islam and Arabs, the crimes will rarely be prosecuted, it is a great sin to talk bad about other muslims in Islam, so revealing the crime done by a muslim is a great sin.
Luchtpint says
They were probably having some rumpy-pumpy in the mosque. Naughty naughty, like teenagers pushing the limits behind the dumpster of the local fastfood chain.
Siti or Sitti is a feminine given name of Indonesian and Malay origin. It is derived from the Arabic honorific sayyidati, meaning “lady”. “Sayyidatina” translates to “our lady” in English. It is often used to refer to a respected woman, particularly in religious or honorific contexts.

I also found this :
Sithi is a Hindu Girl name with Bengali origin. The name Sithi means Noble Woman.

Oh, the irony !!! lol
I can only surmise that the spread of Islam towards South and South East Asia had a profound influence on the local non-Arabic languages there, like Hindi, Bengal and Malay / Indonesian. I suppose that’s why this given name has a shared etymology across such a vast geographical area. In all probability it’s the other way round : it “infected” most likely the languages of the Indian subcontinent first before Arab invaders brought it to South East Asia.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
That girl’s name was “Sweety” – Bangladeshis like to sometimes give people Western nicknames, which they go by. While official names usually are names like Mohammad, Hasina, Khaleda,….
On @X, I’m seeing conflicting reports. One claimed that they were a married couple, another claimed that the 2 weren’t related… Regardless, I do think the Saudis would have done better to have extradited them rather than execute them, but I’m not the least bit sympathetic to them, simply b’cos they’re from that 💩🕳 named Bangladesh

Hope these Muslimt countries keep executing their citizens, namely Muslims under one excuse for other till they all are wiped out, then only there will be peace in the world. Islam is nothing but pure evil, where is UN and all this?

High of Saudi barbarism and Bangladeshi government is such fool
Israeli says
I was listening today (in Hebrew) to someone informing Dr. Mordechai Kedar about this incident, He said that although he has no details about this case, he knows that there are Muslims that hold a belief that a childless couple may gain Allah’s grace to conceive a child if they copulate in a Mosque especially in Mecca itself. If this is the case here, in the Saudis’ mind they need to communicate to other Muslims by beheading the couple not to try it again.
gravenimage says
Could be, Israeli. Of course, Christians and Jews and Hindus and Buddhists would never murder someone for this.
