In Europe, there has been a growing acceptance of Sharia, the holy law of Islam, which is being applied in European law courts when the parties are Muslim. More on this increasing imposition of Sharia can be found here: “Sharia has arrived in Europe: a new millet system,” by Giulio Meotti, Israel National News, August 24, 2025:
A Vienna court has ruled that a Sharia-based ruling is legally valid in Austria.
The case began when two Muslim men agreed that their dispute would be resolved by an Islamic arbitration panel. When a disagreement arose, the court ordered one of them to pay €320,000. The man refused, arguing that Sharia law is open to different interpretations and violates Austria’s fundamental values.
But the Vienna court rejected the appeal and ruled that Austrian law allows arbitration systems for private disputes, as long as the outcome does not violate Austria’s “fundamental legal values”. Essentially, parties can choose to be bound by 7th-century rules, as long as the final outcome does not violate Austrian law. (Note that historically, in countries where Jewish courts were and are allowed to hear litigation and pronounce verdicts, that was only if the verdicts did not contradict the country’s laws or they are wholly religious issues.)
Even though the Vienna ruling concerns economic cases, Muslims interpret it as yet another victory over the West, and rightly so.
The Vienna court insisted that the original agreement between the parties — two Muslim men — to be ruled by Sharia, could not be undone by one of the parties who was going to lose the case according to the Sharia, and suddenly insisted that applying the Sharia in this case would undermine the rule of Austrian law. Having initially agreed to the use of Sharia law, an Austrian court ruled that neither party could back out. It was an amazing spectacle: an Austrian court upholding the use of Sharia law in Austria.
And as the European Court of Human Rights has ruled, the attack on Islam falls outside the scope of free speech, convicting a Viennese woman who called Muhammad a pedophile because of his marriage to Aisha.
Verbal attacks on Islam, according to the European Court of Human Rights, are not protected as free speech. An Austrian woman, Elizabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff, who only stated a simple truth — that Aisha had been betrothed to Muhammad when she was six, and Muhammad “consummated” his marriage to her (that is, had sexual intercourse with her) when she was nine years old, and that in her view this constituted pedophilia, was for stating her opinion convicted of injuring the religious feelings of others, and given a fine of 480 euros. When she appealed the decision on the grounds that she was only exercising her right of free speech, the court rejected her argument, claiming that the right of free speech did not include the right to injure the religious feelings of others. Muslims had managed to impose on Europeans the laws against blasphemy that were enshrined in the Sharia.
The renowned English philosopher John Gray warns in the New Statesman that “in a generation or so, if current trends persist, Europe will have an Ottoman-style millet system in which different religious communities are governed by their own laws. A Europe with equal freedom for every religion, under a rule of law that applies to all, will soon be a distant memory.”
This is the profound significance of European courts endorsing Sharia law.
In England, dozens of “sharia councils” have existed for years, and even a Muslim Arbitration Tribunal officially recognized by the Arbitration Act of 1996, which allows civil disputes to be resolved based on Islamic law. The result has been the proliferation of a parallel Islamic justice system with one hundred courts.
Sharia law is used by German judges to rule on domestic conflicts….
But what happens when only one of the litigants is Muslim? Will the Sharia law then be applied in Germany to cases of family law in matters of divorce, inheritance, adoption? Setting up a parallel legal system — Sharia — to the Western legal framework will result in mass confusion as to which law will be applied, and when. Two legal systems are one too many.
Europe cannot tolerate a parallel legal system, the Sharia, to be applied when the litigants are Muslim. The Muslim migrants who now live in Europe, under a legal system very different from the Sharia, must be held to have agreed, as part of the unstated bargain that allows them to live in Europe, to be governed by that legal system instead of the Sharia. If this is something they cannot do, then they are free to leave — indeed, should be encouraged to leave, to return back to their Muslim countries of origin and the Sharia to which they are so attached.

What happens when the sharia law favors the Muslim person in a dispute between the Muslim and the non-Muslim
If a Christian insults Islam, the Christian is guilty
If the Muslim insults Christianity, is the Muslim guilty or not?
Do you really think the Muslims will accept equal treatment before the law?
Your world is crumbling, and all your police and others sworn to upheld the rights of citizens are punishing the non-Muslim
How many years before the European civil code is gone?
All of this is just to say that Europeans are dumb as bricks

@Fair comment Big Dude. It’s madness.
I have on many occasions posted regarding the infestation of so called ‘Sharia courts’ & Patrols in the UK, esp the north of England, both here & elsewhere; along with shouting it from the proverbial rooftops whenever possible.
When the Sharia courts issue was was brought up (lightly & briefly) on British news channels recently, various muslim guests & leftie spokesatans claimed that sharia is only about marriages & divorces in the islamic community. That’s it. Full stop. Then once the subject had been swatted away like an inconvenient fly of truth, there has been SILENCE.
It is a FACT, that today in Britain, many towns & cities have large foreign enclaves, where white faces & non muslims are a rarity & where Sharia law IS the law.
Modesty patrols, dogs killed &/or disappearing daily, pubs & shops selling alcohol closed after threats & Churches closed/taken over to be transformed to mosques, after the regular wsorshippers of the past were chaed away also by soldier age gangs of muslim thugs with insults threats & violence.
The police are now powerless in these enclaves of islamic control.
Sharia is THE law.
Sharia is here & it’s evil attack on British society continues to incease with no end in sight.
Unless this demonic islamist infection of sharia is not treated once & for all NOW in once great Britain, there will be horros & bloodshed in the name of Allah, sweeping across the country very soon.
MOCKERY AFTER MOCKERY IN BRITAIN TODAY.
WHEN WILL ENOUGH FINALLY BE ENOUGH?
DanC says
Eventuaĺly all of EU will have a drive-thru system where perpetrators will pick-and-chose by what set of laws they want to be judged: if burglary/theft, it’s Western style (who wants amputated limbs?) but if rape, of course they gonna pick Sharia Law because they can get scot-free.

Islamic Law opposes Western Law and Non-Muslims and allows discrimination, segregation, violence, and terrorism against Non-Muslims(Quran 9:5, 29, 111; 98:6-7). Under Islamic Law, there is NO equality under the law for women, children, and Non-Muslims.
ISLAM IS AHISTORICAL, FALLACIOUS, DECEITFUL, AND POLITICAL to conquer and to subjugate Non-Muslims(Quran 3:54; 7:99; 8:30, etc.). There is NO MECCA, NO MUHAMMAD, and NO QURAN in the 7th century AD in Saudi Arabia despite the Muslim Standard Islamic Narrative(SIN) claims. Thus, Islam is a FACTITIOUS IDEOLOGY and CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION despicably fabricated over time into the 21sth century, and there is NO PEACE with Islam and its Murderous Muslims(Quran 8:39: 9:5, 29, 111, etc.).
Allah’s cursed Islam, a CRIMINAL-TERRORIST ENTERPRISE and a MURDEROUS-DEMONIC CULT OF BELIEVERS, Terrorist Muslim Soldiers for Allah, continually fund, promote, and practice ideological subversion, propaganda, bigotry, discrimination, deceit, mass murder, intimidation, supremacy, segregation, hatred, incitement to violence, criminality, genocide, victimhood, censorship, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law, Sharia, and in Islam’s Quran(Quran 5:14,35; 8:60; 9:41, 88, etc.).
Allah’s specious ideology in Qur’an 8:39 commands Muslims to fight Non-Muslims until they surrender to Muslim rule when it says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” Muslims are encouraged to conquer and subjugate every territory for Islam. Hence, Islam and Muslim actions should be legally challenged with a multi-faceted force of Western Laws like Muslims wield against Westerners via Tax Exempt Organizations, the Media and Hollywood, Foreign Funding, etc. because Islam violates and is incompatible with Western Laws(Quran 8:60; 9:5,29, 111; 47:4; 49:15; 60:4 etc.).
Like a Foreign Terrorist Organization(FTO) designated by the USA Secretary of State, Islam and its Muslims function as a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION(MTO) fighting against Non-Muslims to make Islam supreme and NOT A PEACEFUL religion under Western Law because Islam funds, teaches, and promotes Terrorist Criminal Organizations with Muslims as Terrorists for Allah(Quran 2:191; 4:89, 91; 9:5,29, 111; 49:15, etc.).
Allah’s Islam, a supremacist Antichrist Ideology, is using Western Freedoms and Laws against Non-Muslims to conquer Non-Muslims under Islamic Rule. Non-Muslims should legally designate Islam as a Muslim Terrorist Organization(MTO) where Mosques, Muslim Schools, Islamic Centers, Sharia Courts, and Muslim Organizations are banned because of their incitement of segregation and discrimination to fight back against ISLAMIZATION, Muslim subjugation, and tyrannical violence(Quran 4:65; 9:5,29,111; 60:4; 98:6-7, etc.).
Allah’s Muslims desire to make Islam supreme. Sahih Bukhari 3126 says, “… the Prophet said, He who fights so that Allah’s Word(ie. Islam) should be superior, fights for Allah’s Cause.” Allah, the Supreme Destroyer, in Quran 9:111 says, “Surely Allah has purchased from the believers[Muslims] their souls and their money so that they may have the garden[Heavenly Paradise]. They engage in war for the sake of Allah[ie. Allah’s Cause), so they kill and are killed…”. Allah teaches that Death By Jihad leads to Muslim Paradise and Allah’s reward. Allah in Qur’an 3:169 says, “And do not consider those who were killed for the sake of Allah as dead. Yet they are alive with their lord, receiving their provision.”
Under Islam and Islamic Law, Muslims have the Legal Right and the Quranic Duty to terrorize Non-Muslims because neglecting this QURANIC DUTY is a CRIME of Blasphemy, Unbelief, and Infidelity against tyrannical Allah. Jihad means warfare against Non-Muslims to ESTABLISH ISLAM’S RELIGION AS SUPREME(Quran 3:115, 151; 9:5, 29, 111; Muslim Law Manual: “Reliance of the Traveller”, o9.0, etc.).
More specifically, Islam, a terroristic-totalitarian way of life, is a Muslim Terrorist Ideology and Murderous, Criminal Enterprise of: incitement, intolerance, continuous war, discrimination, oppression, segregation, slavery, supremacy, genocide, polygamy, propaganda, deceit, hatred, sedition, terrorism, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran(Quran 2:191, 208,216; 4:65, 89,91, 95, 115; 5:14,64; 8:12,39,60, 74; 9:5,21,29,36, 41,49, 73,88, 111,123; 21:92; 47:4; 49:15; 60:4; 61:9-11; 62:6; 89:14; etc.).

Muslims want Islamic Law because Muslims will use Islamic Law to ultimately control Non-Muslims as they gain more power and control in the West. This is the true goal of Muslims.
Walter Sieruk says
The Islamic influence and impact for Sharia that the Muslims who are also the stealth jihadists in the different countries of Europe is a subversion of Western laws and terribly dangerous to that basic precepts of freedom that the West does god to man people.
That insidious stealth jihadist’s scheme for achieving the goal of the Islamic agenda is as, many times, as subtly effective as it is also demonically clever. Furthermore, this, in some ways, is very similar to the instruction printed in the book entitled THE ART OF WAR by Sun Tzu. Which reads, “At first, then, exhibit the coyness of a maiden, until the enemy gives you an opening; afterwards emulate the rapidity of a running hare, and it will be too late for the enemy to oppose you.”
Walter Sieruk says
On the subject of the sly and subtle as well as disingenuous non-violent methods of the goal of advancement of Islam’s Sharia in the different law courts of Europe be the means what is known and called the “Stealth jihad.” By this technique, the Muslims who are the stealth jihadists are able to infiltrate the United States, and gradually, “inch by inch” and likewise “step by step.” Further, archive progression for their Islamic agenda for the advancement of Islam with the establishment of Sharia in the countries of Europe.
To this end the stealth jihadists will and do use the Islamic of Taqiyya, which the modus operandi of speaks and printing lies that are very deceptive.
As explained in a more detail by a former Muslim and Hezbollah member who now a Christian. In his book he reveals “Lying, treachery and deception became Islam’s key tactics in conquering others. Those tactics are gathered in a doctrinal statement called “Taqiyya” which is one of the most effective arms for the spread of Islam. It means “Holy Deception” which means the use of every lie you can in order to spread Islam or to win the war against the enemy.” [1]

Any European country remotely interested in self-preservation has to exit the EHRC. These days, I see Liz Truss doing the rounds, talking about the grooming gangs and “islamism”, but when she was prime minister, Suella Braverman, who was her home secretary at the time, asked her to pull Britain out of the EHRC, and she either ignored or refused. It’s interesting how people who are sheep when in power suddenly transform into lions once they lose it

ANY NATION cannot survive with 2 legal systems in play, the UK is an example of that with sharia law over riding the sovereignty of the nations legal system.
