"relatively moderate"
I guess when you consider that a kid in Egypt was just sentenced to 3 years in prison for merely saying that he was an Atheist (his dad turned him in), it does look relatively moderate.
Things like these are why I don't often buy the sob story of Muslim persecution or oppression. "relatively moderate brand of Islam yet remains conservative on sexual issues" is a better quote to cover what the article is saying. So they are more moderate than other countries in general but still very harsh on sexual issues.
