this law does not apply to non muslim.. so no need to be fuss about it.. the religious police only care about the muslim.. every muslim knows that sex outside marriage is a sin.. i think all religion in the world is the same about this matter... if you want to have sex, get married then.. beside the canning in Islam is way different than the canning in civil law.. canning in Islam does not hurt the offender at all. the purpose of the canning is not to hurt the offender but to remind them about the sin and not to repeat it. The canning process in Islam, the offender have to wear thin but not transparent clothe (cannot nude). the canning man cannot raise his hand over his head/cannot open the armpit. he cannot cane at one place only. every struck has to be at other body part except face, head, chest and genital part. this is totally different from civil law where the canning man raise their hand as high as they can, the offender is nude, they cane at the same place over and over again. the cane itself nothing like the cane use in civil law. it just small moderate stick. even the end of the cloth can be use to 'cane' because after all its purpose not to harm/hurt the offender but just as a reminder to them.
