Britain Adopts Islamic Law, Gives Sharia Courts Full Power to Rule on Civil Cases



Islamic law has been officially adopted in Britain, with sharia courts given powers to rule on Muslim civil cases.

The government has quietly sanctioned the powers for sharia judges to rule on cases ranging from divorce and financial disputes to those involving domestic violence.

Rulings issued by a network of five sharia courts are enforceable with the full power of the judicial system, through county courts or the country's High Court, a part of its Supreme Court system.

Previously, the rulings of sharia courts in Britain could not be enforced, and depended on voluntary compliance among Muslims.

Politicians and church leaders expressed concerns that this could mark the beginnings of a “parallel legal system” based on sharia for some British Muslims.

Dominic Grieve, the shadow home secretary, said: “If it is true that these tribunals are passing binding decisions in the areas of family and criminal law, I would like to know which courts are enforcing them because I would consider such action unlawful. British law is absolute and must remain so.”

Oh cruel fate, to be thusly boned. Ask not for whom the bone bones. It bones for thee.

It'll never hit the states. There are fundamental differences between us and the Europeans on this issue. In short: We value individual freedom a lot more than they do.

As for the rest of Europe? Probably not long. I am surprised Germany and France didnt beat the UK to it.

I would have never guessed it would have hit Britain, maybe Germany or France, but not Britain. Hope that ship doesn’t leave and come here, that’s for sure.

But they said both parties would have to agree with it. But that isn’t going to happen since women get bent over under that law. But I could be wrong, I am not a lawyer or knowledgeable on Sharia Law.

Neither party here would ever tolerate it, thats why it'll never happen.

This is really (*)(*)(*)(*)ing stupid. I mean, how hard would it be to say "nope, iam not muslim anymore" and opt out of this little farce?


And what the hell is wrong with the british government?

If this (*)(*)(*)(*) happens in the states that will spell the end.

Bunglawala (yeah, say that name three times fast) makes a good point. Our separation of church and state laws would keep such action out the US, at least not for the same reasons as it has occured in the UK.

Wow, does this illustrate the need to keep religion and government separate.
