i agree with president Trump

@FreddieUK Britain has emerged as the "western capital" for sharia courts, with 85 Islamic councils now operating across the country since the first was established in 1982.

These religious bodies have become increasingly influential, drawing Muslims from across Europe and North America who seek religious rulings on marriage and family matters.

The councils, typically consisting of panels of Islamic scholars who are almost always male, serve as informal bodies issuing religious rulings particularly focused on marriages and divorces.

Sharia was defined in an official review by theologian Professor Mona Siddiqui as jurisprudence based on Islamic scholars' opinions from the time of Mohammed in the 7th century until the 13th century.

@sunsporter1649 thank you for telling me something I already knew. These courts are not legally recognised in British law and no one outside of you of the narrow sects that have set these up has any reason to be concerned about them. Anyone ‘‘convicted’ in these little courts can safely ignore them. Not one piece of Sharia Law is enshrined in British law in any of the four countries of the UK.

@FreddieUK Your support of the raghead terrorists is noted

@sunsporter1649 That reply makes no sense. What are you talking about?

@FreddieUK @Richard65 Bigamy is legal in the UK?

@sunsporter1649 No

@FreddieUK

The Islamic Sharia Council of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, is based in Leyton, east London, and is a registered charity that provides nikah (marriage) services, talaq (initiated by husband) and khula (initiated by wife) divorce procedures.

There is also an application where Islamic laws can be created by Muslims living in England and Wales.

In the application, men can choose from a drop-down menu how many wives they have, which is somewhere from one to four. This has also been approved by the Sharia court, reported The Times, UK.

According to data, around 100,000 Islamic marriages have taken place in Britain and these have not been registered with civil authorities.



Where are the arrests for conducting marriges without a license?

@sunsporter1649 There can only be legal marriage under British laws. In the same way that anyone getting married in anything other than one of the state churches also need to have a civil license for the marriage to be recognised by the state. Church of England ministers are automatically recognised as being able to conduct legal weddings, but everyone else either has to have a registrar present, or the couple have to present at a registry office. It would be the same for Jewish, Sikh and Islamic weddings.

@sunsporter1649 you're embarrassing yourself. You know less than zero about the UK, I doubt you could find it on a map from your shack. Just chew some tobacco in your rocking chair and polish your guns....

@Richard65 So your proved wrong once again, and your apology for being wrong again is noted

@sunsporter1649 Another non sequitur .

@sunsporter1649 proved wrong? Says the guy who thinks Sharia Law is legal in the UK because he read it in an Indian newspaper.
