A severe beating could be in Cristiano Ronaldo's future ... and it's reportedly all because he hugged and kissed a female painter in Iran last month.

Here's the deal ... Ronaldo was in the country to play in Al-Nassr's Asian Champions League game against Persepolis on Sept. 19 -- but before the match happened, he was greeted by several fans who showered him with gifts.

One of them included painter Fatima Hamimi, who creates art with her feet due to a disability.

She handed over two ultra-realistic drawings of the 38-year-old ... and as a thank you, Ronaldo embraced her and gave her a peck on the forehead.

It all seemed quite innocuous, but according to multiple reports in Iran, Ronaldo is now in hot water over it all -- because in the country, it's reportedly considered adultery to touch another woman while in a relationship. The soccer player, of course, has been in a longtime partnership with Georgina Rodriguez.

Multiple outlets reported this week that Ronaldo's actually been sentenced to 99 lashes over it all. However, at least one report said he can escape the punishment if he shows remorse for his actions.

Ronaldo is not currently slated to return to Iran for an Al-Nassr game again ... although one could be scheduled at a later date if the team makes it to the knockout stages of the Asian Champions League tournament.

So far, Ronaldo -- who joined Al-Nassr last year -- has yet to comment on the matter.

the Iran Embassy denies it. A bunch of Iran lawyers were filing complaints but nothing official.

There's no way they're going to actually go through with it lol it's fuckin Ronaldo. Probably just some Iranian dumb asses saying that's what the penalty is if one of them would have done the same thing.

I mean, I sympathize with him but also anyone who takes "Saudi blood money" can go fuck themselves.

Kissing someone on the forehead, especially someone younger than you is something that happens in many Muslim families. Usually as an elder or father/mother figure >_>

This seems to be in that same area to me.

Meh, it won't happen.
These kind of story usually a sensationalism. While he did broke the stupid law, no one will really enforce it because his reputation.
It will be a slap on the wrist or some minor fine if they're being a bit greedy.

Christianity used to be like this too, and it will be once again if the evangelical right gets their way.

I agree that the islamic despotism we see in the middle east shouldn't exist in the 21st century, and that Islam as a religion is deeply flawed, but this kind of "religion of peace teehee" rhetoric only hurts individual muslims who aren't the problem, and bolsters western right wing narratives.

Tbh, I'm not sure this is much of a refutation. This is just the Iranian embassy in Spain issuing a boilerplate denial and then changing the subject to what's happening in Palestine.

No, it's okay to make fun of any religion.

Why would this story's validity be needed at all to bag on Iran and their backwards culture that their government tries to force?
