You know what, in a humanitarian, ethical sense i don't support capital punishment/stoning (who would.) However, in Iran there is a strict shariah law about stoning for Adultery- so the question you have to pose did she do the action (adultery) knowing the consequences?
Also I think the reason why muslims stone for adultery in this world, is so that the person pays for their punishment in this world and not the next (hell,) so then it brings a whole new debate if the lady believed in heaven/hell, was willing to die so she could wipe that sin.
Also, how could you condemn Islam for stoning, when other major religions also have grave consequences for stoning-Judaism, christianity. Adultery in religions have always had grave consequences.
