Why Muslims believe in Sharia law? While the bible tells us only God has the power to punish not ourselves?

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
