Maybe Britain wasn’t ready, maybe it was and even if it wasn’t, they have willingly or unwillingly become part of the Muslim world. Let me say something here, it is not a publicity stunt when you become a part of the Muslim world, it just puts you down even more.

You ask, how did all this happen? Apparently there is a clause in the UK Arbitration Act 1996 which classifies the Sharia court as arbitration tribunal. The rulings of arbitration tribunals are binding in law, provided that both parties in the dispute agree to give it the power to rule on their case.

In other words, I could decide if I want to go to a Sharia court or the Real court. It would be interesting to see who gets to decide when both parties cannot seem to make an agreement. I would go to the court which has the most favorable ruling for me, won’t I? This will result in a deadlock and one party will definitely be a loser.

There is no question that Islam tends to look at men in a more favorable way than women and that will make the Sharia courts very interesting because the side that loses will always want to pursue second opinion from traditional courts if they believe that the Sharia court was unjust.

According to TimesOnline:

“In a recent inheritance dispute handled by the Sharia court, the estate of a Midlands man was divided between three daughters and two sons. The judges on the panel gave the sons twice as much as the daughters, in accordance with Sharia. Had the family gone to a normal British court, the daughters would have got equal amounts.”

As you can see, there is already a problem. That’s not it, the article goes on to say:

“In the six cases of domestic violence, Siddiqi said the judges ordered the husbands to take anger management classes and mentoring from community elders. There was no further punishment. In each case, the women subsequently withdrew the complaints they had lodged with the police and the police stopped their investigations.”

It doesn’t really make sense that the law that has been shunned in Muslim countries is now being adopted in non-Muslim country so that a relatively small part of the population can be appeased. Here in the U.S. it is all about separation between church and state and this happens to be the strength of this country. I am in no way implying that the U.S. is not a Christian country but at least I am not treated inferiorly or superiorly in the eyes of law when it comes to legal system. I am not asked to swear on the bible in front of jury and that’s how it should be in the court of law. Having a Sharia court and a Regular court is like going “opinion hunting”, it has nothing to do with jsutice.
