Early voting for the March 3 Texas primary elections is open now. It began Tuesday, Feb. 17, and runs through Friday, Feb. 27. Most days have no lines, hours are flexible, and all you need is a photo ID.
While the primary chooses party nominees for November, one proposition on the ballot is a defining moment for Texas: Proposition 10—“Texas should prohibit Sharia Law.”
This nonbinding proposition is your chance to send a clear message to Austin lawmakers before the 2027 legislative session: Texas will never allow a foreign legal system to undermine our Constitution. A strong YES vote is essential for every Texan who believes in liberty, equal rights, women’s safety, and the rule of American law.
Sharia is not just personal religious practice. It is a comprehensive political and legal doctrine drawn from the Quran, Hadith, and Islamic jurisprudence that claims supremacy over all man-made laws, including the U.S. and Texas constitutions. While our founding documents protect natural rights, equality, consent of the governed, and separation of religion from state power, Sharia demands the opposite.
Direct conflicts include:
- Death penalties for apostasy and blasphemy versus our First Amendment freedoms.
- Women receive half the inheritance and half the courtroom testimony value of men, plus allowance of polygamy and honor-based violence, versus Texas equality laws.
- Second-class “dhimmi” status for non-Muslims versus our ban on religious tests or discrimination.
- Cruel corporal punishments (amputation, stoning, flogging) versus the Eighth Amendment.
- Sharia’s claim to override secular law versus the supremacy clause in Article VI of the U.S. Constitution.
Texas has already taken strong steps.
Gov. Greg Abbott signed legislation targeting Sharia-compliant compounds and discriminatory practices. Federal lawmakers from Texas, including Rep. Chip Roy, are pushing for national action.
But Proposition 10 raises the stakes.
A large YES vote will push the Legislature to deliver real protections: banning Sharia in family courts and contracts, increasing scrutiny of foreign-funded groups, and ensuring no parallel legal systems take root in our state.
Recent data shows significant percentages of American Muslims support implementing Sharia here. Muslim Brotherhood-linked networks openly pursue “civilization jihad” through gradual legal and cultural infiltration. Texas—with its strong economy, conservative values, and key position—is a prime target. We stopped dangerous projects like EPIC City through vigilance. Proposition 10 is the next line of defense.
Voting YES on Prop 10 accomplishes three critical goals:
- It declares that American law is the only law in Texas—no exceptions, no compromises.
- It builds unstoppable momentum for binding legislation in 2027.
- It tells the rest of the country that Texas remains the firewall for constitutional governance.
As the BanSharia.com campaign states: Save Texas, Save America.
Opponents will claim “Islamophobia” and say this attacks religious liberty. They are wrong. The First Amendment protects personal belief and private worship, not the establishment of a rival legal system that treats the Constitution as inferior. We defend faith and reject supremacy doctrines. Our Founders studied these threats and designed our republic to withstand them.
This proposition is nonbinding, but Texas voters know the power of these messages. Strong showings in past cycles drove real action on borders, taxes, and education. A large YES turnout during early voting will do the same.
Our children’s freedom, women’s rights, and the constitutional republic are on the line. Texas must lead.
Save Texas—and help save America.

Sharia law, welcome to the 9th century.

We can hope that the infidels in Texas have been paying attention. Thankfully, infidels still outnumber muzzies in Texas.
I have a lot of relatives and friends there and I don’t want muzzies to control their lives and behaviors.
Rooster says
Don’t you Texans realize by voting on this unconstitutional proposition 10, you’re giving legitimacy to Islam Sharia? Enforce the Law of the Land for God sake and deport all Muslims who refuse to comply! Any politician who supports this FUBAR ought to be thrown out of their official status. We need politicians who comply with their oath of office and not create problems that are already taken care of by our Constitution. Wake up America and get ready to send the invaders back home or the grave.
gravenimage says
How is opposing unconstitutional Sharia law unconstitutional? Rooster, please read this article again–Proposition 10 *bans* Islamic law.

I do hope that deranged though they are, that non-muslim Texas Dems at least have the sense to vote yes on Proposition 10. Just like decades ago, California voted yes on props 187 and 209. Let this be an Infidels vs muslims vote, rather than a GOP vs Dems vote
GE says
After what I saw Dems do last night —
(Not standing for putting citizens ahead of illegal aliens, not standing for American heroes, etc.) all I can hope for is that Texas constituents have more sense than some of the people they elected. (Think Jasmine Crockett)
You’re right, Infidel. Not a GOP vs Dem issue. More like rational people vs the brain dead.
somehistory says
Some of the dems even took illegals to the speech.
The muzzie ilhan the snake took, was removed from the room.
rick says
Allow Sharia law for Muslim men only. If they are caught breaking and entering a business aster closing hours and stealing something – off with a hand!!! If they rape a woman – off with a penis!!! If they kill someone – off with a head. Their religion – their lose.
Muslim women have suffered enough over the past 14 centuries. Give them Western law.
Pray Hard says
You’ve got a long way to go.
gravenimage says
Rick, your idea that Sharia law punishes Muslim men for practicing Islam could not be more mistaken. Muslims stealing from Infidels is completely Halal. So is their raping unbelieving women. And there is nothing so Islamic as mass murdering non-Muslims.
And while some Muslim women really do want to be free of misogynist Islamic law, sadly all too many want to impose Sharia just as much as do Muslim men.
Patrick says
Banning Sharia is commendable but, how can we continue to tolerate those who hate us for being Christian, Jewish, or non-Muslims and for that reason, want to kill us? They hate America, hate you and me because Muhammad and Allah told them to.
We must ban Islam in America, anything short of that, is suicide for all of us. Muslims are well organized, they have a continual supply of money and men, they can frequently overwhelm you with numbers. Do we really know, how many Muslims are in America? Whatever the number, it’s significant, it’s in the millions, therefore, they’re an organized, well funded, mass to contend with. Democrats are an integral part of the mass, they support the mass, consider themselves the mass.
Neither group is trustworthy, their goals are defined, they want total control of America, they don’t care how they get there! We’re quickly reaching a point of no return, we only have 3 yrs left to accomplish the above. Am I the only one who thinks this way? What the hell do I know, realistically speaking, are we doomed?
gravenimage says
Prop 10 is still a good first step. I hope it passes easily in Texas, then is taken up by all 49 other states in the union.
Patrick says
How long, after I make a post to jihadwatch.org, must I wait, to see my comments on this site? I like the response (my post on the site) to be somewhat timely. Thank you.

Have you signed in. Patrick? If you haven’t, then you have to wait for posts to be cleared by moderation.

Thank you ‘gravenimage’, I usually don’t sign in, it’s time consuming, I’m lazy as hell. I’ll waste my time and sign in each day. Thanks again!

“Opponents will claim “Islamophobia” and say this attacks religious liberty.”
What kind of stupidity is this. How is religious liberty applied to a cult that opposes religious liberty.
This must be a simpleton from the Green party claiming this.
The Quran is so obviously demonic that even the simpletons in the Green party should grasp it. Could be they agree with the religious liberty of mutilating female children for life as in FGM, going to “heaven” by killing all infidels, subjugating the host country and its citizens by taking protection money as in Jizya, legal lying like Taqiya and even breast suckling for adults as explained by MoMo.
OLD GUY says
“Remember the Alamo” come on Texans stand up and fight once again for the great state of Texas against Islamic rule and sharia law in Texas and America.
I know the people of Texas from the roughnecks, cowboys, and hardworking friends and neighbors can and will stand for Texas and American values.
JA says
I wonder how many Muslim women are allowed to vote? I am guessing most of them will vote against Sharia.
gravenimage says
JA, don’t be so sure. Some Muslim women *would* love to be free of Islamic law, but many support it. Even though they are oppressed under Islam, they can still see Infidels persecuted.
Ralph says
Texans voting YES on Proposition 10 is a “no brainer” and I’m well qualified for that!
