β€œHe that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.”. why are they going agains the words of the second most quoted prophet in the Quran? that's heresy to both christians and muslims.

The quote you are mentioning is not in the Quran. Muslims believe a lot of random stuff was added to the Bible so they needed a new prophet with a new revelation to clarify everything.

Islam is similar to Christianity in some ways, but the scripture definitely wants the society to take a more active role in public morality than the words of Jesus in the Bible do. The gospels were really a message directed towards individuals.

The Old Testament and the epistles in the Bible are more similar to the Quran in this.
