Is it permissible to publicly kill a Muslim and mutilate his body by shooting him until his remains are scattered?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is not permissible to kill a Muslim or anyone else without a just legal right. If a Muslim incurs a prescribed punishment (hadd) or retribution (qisas), no one is permitted to carry it out except the Sultan or his deputy, after its legal establishment.
