What objective criteria should I compare it to?

That's exactly my point.

These are issues of morality.

Unless you can establish a system of morality that is universal and objective, you have no real place to be criticizing others for their views on what is moral and what isn't.

And before you ask why we can criticize, we do have an objective set of criteria, i.e. those of Islam.

Your error is that you're judging the legitimacy of Islam upon principles when in fact you have no way of knowing whether or not they are correct in the first place.
