Theresa May and Sharia Law

Whereas in English Law, criminals who steal get fined, forced into community service or get jailed; in Sharia, they get their hand or leg chopped off with a sword. 
Excerpt from http://www.breitbart.com/london/2016/05/28/teresa-may-sharia-courts-benefit-muslims-britain/ -

' Theresa May has claimed Muslims in Britain “benefit greatly” from Sharia law as she launched plans for an “independent inquiry,” headed by a Muslim and guided by two “leading imams,” into whether some of the controversial courts’ judgements are at odds with British gender equality laws.

The proposed review will investigate whether Sharia law is being “misused” and “exploited” to discriminate against women in Islamic courts in the UK, according to the Home Secretary.'

(This is extremely silly thinking from the Home Secretary, in the end, this investigation will find that Sharia Law is not "misused" nor "exploited", but actually works against women. 

Look here to see how Sharia Law affects women in Islamic countries: http://www.clarionproject.org/understanding-islamism/womens-rights-under-sharia)

Look at these links here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_Arbitration_Tribunal and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_Sharia_Council

These two main Islamic courts in the UK above use Islam-approved law, called Sharia Law, while these courts are in operation, these allow Muslim criminals to bypass the UK justice system and be judged by Sharia law rather than English law, thus they are allowed to get away with crimes that would be arrestable in English law, but not in Sharia law, but also in most cases, the opposite is true, for example, adultery is not illegal in English law,  however it is in Sharia and punishments can greatly vary.

Here is a collection of punishments for 'hudud' crimes, these are crimes against Allah with a fixed punishment, these can range from:
  • Having your the hand or feet cut off for stealing. 
  • Unmarried sex before marriage will result in a 100 lashings. 
  • Homosexuality is punishable with a 100 lashings. (Some in Islam, for example, The Islamic State, have gone further and put homosexuals to death.) 
  • Leaving the 'Religion of Peace', Islam, will be punishable by death. 
Failure to prove these crimes with 4 witnesses, 80 lashes for the accuser.

If you think those were bad, I haven't mentioned about:

Qisas: crimes against Muslims where equal retaliation is allowed. (For example, a eye for a eye can be done.)
and
Tazir: crimes against Muslims or non-Muslims where a Muslim judge uses his discretion in sentencing.

To see more about Sharia Law, have a look here: https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharia_law


In the end, all people must be tried by our country's law, regardless their beliefs. Allowing Sharia law courts to operate outside the criminal justice system is unacceptable and must be stopped.

Also one doesn't need to launch a so-called 'independent' inquiry by using two leading Imams to find out how barbaric Sharia law is; only a minute look online gives you the idea what it is all about.
