Quranic verse says that a free man could not be killed for killing a woman or a slave.
<span style="color:#323232;">Quran 2:178:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْقِصَاصُ فِى ٱلْقَتْلَى ۖ ٱلْحُرُّ بِٱلْحُرِّ وَٱلْعَبْدُ بِٱلْعَبْدِ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰ بِٱلْأُنثَىٰ ۚ
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">O ye who believe! Retaliation is prescribed for you in the matter of the murdered; the freeman for the freeman, and the slave for the slave, and the female for the female.
</span>
That is: I think it’s saying that only the guilty can serve the penalty for the crime.
no , the translation says if a free man kills another free man the killer should be put to death. and same goes for if woman kills woman and a slave kills a slave. it’s pretty clear. for more refer this website
Also, how does this quote relate to the news article you submitted?
it talks of the horrible position of women in islam. i mean who tf kills their wife and daughters and gets to simply walk away?
I don’t believe you that the consensus of sunni scholars is that men can kill their wives and daughters and simply walk away.
that’s the same thing i thought at first too. until i came across this
Honor killing stems from the Islamic concept of ‘the guardianship of blood’ [ولاية الدم]. If a father kills a son or a daughter, he doesn’t get capital >punishment or pay diya because he’s their blood guardian.
The same rule applies if the likes of his son or brother kill his daughter. He’s permitted to waive the blood and money penalty of the victim since >he’s the blood guardian.
If he kills his wife and they have a child together, he doesn’t get punished as well because her blood guardianship gets transferred from her >father/male guardian to her child.
No father gets executed or pays Diya for killing his child, and no child can punish his father even for killing his mother.
The Indian media is filled with so much BJP/right wing propaganda right now. Especially on YouTube and Instagram. That stupid modi has brainwashed so many young Indians into his hateful ideology. Its hard to find a rational indian who thinks for themselves on social media....
The failure during a test of the X-33’s complex, multi-lobe composite-structure cryogenic hydrogen tank was one of the main reasons for the cancellation of both the X-33 and the VentureStar. Ultimately, the VentureStar program required too many technical advances at too high a cost to be viable.
The X-30 program was terminated amid budget cuts and technical concerns in 1993.
Getting into orbit requires two things: getting to at least 250-300km height and achieving about 7.8km/s speed.
For obvious reasons - you can’t get to 7.8km/s while in the atmosphere - most of this acceleration happens outside of the atmosphere.
Not only you have to achieve this enormous speed, you also have to do it fast - otherwise you fall back to the ground.
The only two engines that we know that can do this is the classical old chemical rocket engine and a nuclear explosion.
This means that all other brilliant ideas for getting into space - balloons, plane launched rockets, etc, don’t gain almost anything. They can eventually allow for cheaper sub-orbital flight - allowing the average person to experience an orbit-like sensation. When it comes to a real orbital flight, they add a huge amount of complexity without gaining almost anything. You save the first 0.5km/s from the 7.8km/s acceleration.
Nuclear used to be on the table in the 60s but then people realized what they had done with their high altitude atmospheric testing and it got banned.
SABRE can get you to 1.5km/s out of the 7.8km/s. It is not as insignificant as it can appear, since the first 1.5km/s are the most expensive and besides they will allow you to optimize your nozzle for the higher atmosphere - the optimal nozzle size depends on the ambient pressure - so if you can start higher, you can have a better nozzle.
SSTO is just too darn hard because of the physics involved.
To get into orbit you need about 9000 m/s of delta v. Assuming you can use an engine like the RS-25 and average an Isp of 440 over the whole launch, that means that your vehicle at launch needs to be 88% fuel, and 12% for the rest.
That 12% needs to cover your tanks - which will be big because LH2 tanks are always big - your engines, your airframe, your wings, reaction control system, aerodynamic control system, thermal protection system, etc. And any payload that you want.
That gives you very tiny margins, and every pound that your vehicle gains during development is one pound that goes away from payload.
Just to take a ridiculous example - we’ll take the shuttle and assume we can attach an external tank to it and somehow bring them both back without any extra TPS and without bigger wings and other systems.
The shuttle orbiter weighted about 110,000 kg with 26,000 kg payload. The external tank weighed about 27,000 kg, so the total empty weight is 137,000 kg
The full weight was 760,000 kg (tank) + 110,000 kg = 870,000
That gives us a delta v of about 8000 m/s - not enough to get to orbit.
SSTO is just too darn hard.
Still, even if they manage to get it to work, which is still not the case, do not expect a revolution. It will probably reduce the weight of the launch fuel a lot, but it will be at the expense of complexity. It won’t have the necessary TWR to launch vertically - it will launch like a plane and it will need wings that will be useless 5 minutes later and will probably have to be jettisoned.
So…Is it worth it?
Staging is great for efficiency, and with concepts like Starship ( fully re-usable staging rocket) you achieve maximum efficiency. SSTO in itself is a worthless goal unless it’s economically feasible.

Call on your representatives to stop approving new fossil fuel infrastructure.
Protest fossil fuel infrastructure.
Call on your representatives to end fossil fuel subsidies.
Call on your representatives to invest in climate action.
Switch your energy supplier and/or make your home energy efficient.
Stop flying as much.
Support local food systems and adopt a plant-based diet.
Get an electric vehicle.
Eat less meat and dairy
Bank and invest your money responsibly Contact your bank, building society or pension provider to find out where they are investing your money, and ask if you can opt out of funds investing in fossil fuels.Make My Money Matter campaign for banks and pension funds to be invested sustainably. There are also a number of ‘ethical banks’ you can consider for various accounts, including current and savings accounts.
Change your home’s source of energy Ask your utility company if your home energy comes from oil, coal or gas. If possible, see if you can switch to renewable sources such as wind or solar. Or install solar panels on your roof to generate energy for your home. Switching your home from oil, gas or coal-powered energy to renewable sources of energy, such as wind or solar, can reduce your carbon footprint by up to 1.5 tons of CO2e per year.
Save energy at home Much of our electricity and heat are powered by coal, oil and gas. Use less energy by reducing your heating and cooling use, switching to LED light bulbs and energy-efficient electric appliances, washing your laundry with cold water, or hanging things to dry instead of using a dryer. Improving your home’s energy efficiency, through better insulation for instance, or replacing your oil or gas furnace with an electric heat pump can reduce your carbon footprint by up to 900 kilograms of CO2e per year.
