That is not the term, it is Sharia law and you still have yet to show where it permits rape.

Sharia law provides that you can't get a rape conviction unless the act was witnessed by 4 male witnesses who turn up to give evidence against the accused. C'mon, get real. That makes it impossible to convict the rapist. And you know what happens to a woman whose allegation of rape is unsubstantiated? Sharia law is a rapist's charter. No doubt about it.
By the way, General Musharraf's reform of the law may not get off the ground and may well turn out to be a reform in name only. My bet is it will not even be enforced in practice because of Muslim opposition.
