Britain has 85 sharia courts: The astonishing spread of the Islamic justice behind closed doors


www.dailymail.c o.uk
At least 85 Islamic sharia courts are operating in Britain, a study claimed yesterday.
The astonishing figure is 17 times higher than previously accepted.

The tribunals, working mainly from mosques, settle financial and family disputes according to religious principles. They lay down judgments which can be given full legal status if approved in national law courts.

However, they operate behind doors that are closed to independent observers and their decisions are likely to be unfair to women and backed by intimidation, a report by independent think-tank Civitas said.

Actually i am stunned..law only applies for people who recognize the court..still what would happen with women's right..
Incredible how London/Albion allows these courts next to its own common law...
Hope this will wake up the UK and beyond...

If your not from that part of the community it wont apply to you. Stop spreading fear about Muslims


It effects me by spreading the notion that the host country's legal system is invalid. If the legal system is invalid, then the government has no legitimacy and can be displaced in other ways, eventually leading to insurrections and violence when a large enough group defends their "right" to ignore the laws of the country they are in in favor of the home country's system. What they are really trying to do is supplant the host country's social and legal systems with their own: basically an invasion, sort of peaceful, but a cultural invasion nonetheless.

If the Islamic countries are justified in disliking the introduction of Western vakues and systems in their countries, I can certainly dislike the introduction of Islamic values into mine. Muslims are not at all tolerant of squat that differs from their backwards practices: they regularly kill transgressors for ridiculous things that the rest of us consider trivial; they murder women in particular on a regular basis ("honor killings"). I'd have no problem if they just kept it to themselves, but like the other rotten branch of the same tree, they simply have to impose their crap on everyone around them. I guess even one dissenter makes everyone realize what a load of crap it all is.

Setting up your own court system is treason and insurrection just as much as bombing places you don't like is. If you want that system so bad, stay where it is already in place and quit trying to supplant mine with yours.

This is what really annoys me. Would you see such countries as Iran, Israel, Russia, China allow british citizens Use our own laws in thier countries?

Answer not they would not.

So why should we allow muslims or the jewish communtiy, There should one law. And it certainly should not be sharia law.

Thats because we are supposed to be a free country...why are you comparing our country to others? what next? should we start pillaging villages,hacking people to pieces with machetes,raping woman and abducting children because they do it in sudan? very flawed view of the world...and its aspects of shariah law,like i said British law is still the law of the land and if certain aspects fit into the law,whats the problem exactly?

And so did the UDF, have thier own justice system, where they done exactly the same thing as the IRA. No difference at all.

I am comparing this country to others, to show that not matter which way you look at it, those countries would not allow us to bring our own laws through the back door and then let us have closed door courts.

So why should Britain be any different. No other law should be allowed apart fromthe Law of the Counrty which they live in. Free country omg hms yeah oks. I will take that comment with apinch off salt

British law is the law of the land and they ARE abiding by it,none of the shariah laws we are talking about come into conflict with British law.It seems to me this has nothing to do with british law and more to do with bigotry...
