Getting the
criminal
back for their
crimes
View source
Christians may support retribution
As the bible says "
an eye for an eye
"
View source
Jesus
took a stand against retribution
Emphasising
forgiveness
and
mercy
View source
There is a clear difference between
retribution
and
revenge
View source
Muslims believe punishment should
Enable
justice
View source
The Quran says "a life for a life,
eye
for an
eye
"
View source

Sharia
law, e.g. use of
capital punishment
for murder

Deterrence
Threat of punishment putting people
off
committing a
crime
View source
Christianity recognises the need to
deter
the person from doing it again and
deter
others as well
With the intention to
prevent
greater
harm
View source
Most Christians would oppose the harshest methods of
deterrence
because of their beliefs in the
sanctity
of life and compassion
View source
The
Quran
says to cut off the hand of
thieves
as a deterrent
View source
Punishment
is meant to
Show a message to society and to
reduce crimes
, it's not about
harm
View source
Reformation
Helping the criminal to
see
how and why their mindset/actions were
wrong
so they change for the better
View source
Christians
believe it is their job to teach and educate criminals about the error of their ways
As nobody is
perfect
and everyone is with
sin
, with no judgement
View source
Some criminals may
not respond to change
, raising the question of how many chances to give
View source
Muslims believe they have a
duty to educate and to show
people the error of
their ways and to make amends
View source
God is all
forgiving
and all
loving
, so why not us?
View source
The idea of retribution is not sufficient, the person who suffered must have justice, and some crimes like murder are
unforgivable
, there must be a
cut-off
point
View source

To keep criminals
away
from society so they cannot
hurt
others
View source
Christians believe that
protecting
society is important as human life is sacred as
God
created it

believe the same, it could also be seen as
justice
