Islamic spokesmen in the West are fighting against anti-Sharia laws in various states by assuring people that Muslims in non-Muslim polities must obey the laws — as if this means that they shouldn’t or wouldn’t try to implement Sharia.

Surprise: Saudi clerics resist even minor reforms proposed by king
It’s only natural: what is standing in the way of attempts to “reform” Sharia is Sharia’s own inherent resistance to reform, as it is upheld as Allah’s perfect law for all mankind, for all time. To say a given law is flawed is to imply either that Allah issued a bad law, or that humans […]

India: Muslim Sharia judge misunderstands Islam, forces minor girl into marriage

As we recently learned from the second round of Peter King’s hearings, it is the height of “Islamophobia” to suggest that jihadists are recruiting for the jihad in prisons. And yet here is evidence that it is happening in Indonesia; of course, it’s inconceivable that anything like this could be happening in prisons in the […]
