To many in the West, talk of sharia law conjures up images of the floggings, stonings, amputations and beheadings carried out in hardline Islamic states such as Saudi Arabia and Iran. However, the form practised in Britain is more mundane, focusing mainly on marriage, divorce and financial disputes.
The judgments of the courts have no basis in British law, and are therefore technically illegitimate - they are binding only in that those involved agree to comply. For British Muslims who are keen to follow Islam, this poses a dilemma. An Islamic marriage is not recognised by British law, and therefore many couples will have two ceremonies - civil for the state, and Islamic for their faith.
If they wish to divorce, they must then seek both a civil and an Islamic divorce.
Dr Hasan, who has been presiding over sharia courts in Britain for more than 25 years, argues that British law would benefit...
Greetings! How about born and raised 30 mi. se. of Pittsburgh? Adeeb, keep up the spiritual fight brother! In these times it is good to make a concerted stand against false teachings and cults like the Mohammedans but let us remember to also pray and witness to those whom the Lord has brought in our midst and not neglect the oppurtunities presented to us. Have a "grace day"!
Adeeb wrote: Islam constantly claims that it is persecuted and Mohamet insulted, but I find it amazing that their Quran insults our Christian faith. They say that Jesus never claimed to be God. Jesus said "if you've seen me, you've seen the Father". If Jesus did not claim to be God then why did the Pharisees try to contantly kill him. They understood his claim. Islam! you came after the truth. Your "prophet" was taught by the Nostics and Jews as he traveled through their lands in his caravan. The Nostics denied the divinity of Christ. Why do you make my religion that came long before your religion a lie? You have no problems borrowing sections of the Bible to justify your Quran. Aren't you ashamed of yourselves? All knees shall bow before the judgement seat of the Christ, the Mighty King, you will all see him descending with his angles of fire to destroy those who know not God!
Amen Hi Adeeb Im from little washington, about 30 mi. southwest of pittsburgh. Yep, born and raised there, how bout you?

The only thing the british should do is say to all those who want to live by sharia law,there is the next plain or boat out of britain,get on it and take your sharia law bact to some islamic country still living in the seventh century. Sharia law is evil,unjust,and puts woman down lower than a domestic animal!!! Islam is the most evil system of religion on earth and the quran,sunnah,and hadeths are nothing more than mein kampf for muslims wanting to rule the world with their satanic rule of islam. The only thing islam is afraid of is JESUS CHRIST and his evangelist christians. But Hey Thats Why "ye must be born again"
