Sharia Exposed deals with Sharia as a rule of law and its fabrication by Fiqh as human understanding of Sharia. Islam, being the child of Christianity and the grandchild of Judaism, comes alive in this book as the sum total of oneness. Based upon quotes from the Quran and the Hadith, Sharia unveils itself as the emblem of mercy, compassion, and benevolence when rescued from under the heap of distortions concocted by extremists. IS, ISIS, ISIL, and Boko Haram, among others, are exposed with news excerpts with the intention of saving young Muslims from the lure of hypocrites raping their way to damnation through murder, torture, and beheading. The aim of this book is to clear the cobwebs of Sharia that have corrupted the fabric of Islam, cutting through it with naked blades of hatred and intolerance. Each quote in this book is selected as a guide and a challenge, supplementary reading in the disciplines of Islamic culture, world religions, and Islamic jurisprudence.

In the West, "sharia" often calls to mind antiquated laws founded upon gender discrimination and barbaric punishments. In the East, for some it means the ideal standards by which Muslims strive to live; for others, it is the greatest obstacle to modernization of their societies. These clashing views sometimes lead to violence. Clarification of the term has therefore become an urgent necessity. Sharia is all of these things and much more. It is the legal system of Islam, a series of guidelines and prohibitions. But it is also a concept invested with a whole range of meanings, from the virtuous attributes of an "'ideal"' society, to the confinement of particular elements to otherness and adversity. Moving through history, society and Islamic thought to explore the sources of sharia law, Baudouin Dupret gets to the heart of its uses and abuses in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. This short, accessible book provides an invaluable guide for those seeking to understand a matter more complex and pressing today than ever before.

Few symbols in today’s world are as laden and fraught as sharia—an Arabic-origin term referring to the straight path, the path God revealed for humans, the norms and rules guiding Muslims on that path, and Islamic law and normativity as enshrined in sacred texts or formal statute. Yet the ways in which Muslim men and women experience the myriad dimensions of sharia often go unnoticed and unpublicized. So too do recent historical changes in sharia judiciaries and contemporary strategies on the part of political and religious elites, social engineers, and brand stewards to shape, solidify, and rebrand these institutions. Sharia Transformations is an ethnographic, historical, and theoretical study of the practice and lived entailments of sharia in Malaysia, arguably the most economically successful Muslim-majority nation in the world. The book focuses on the routine everyday practices of Malaysia’s sharia courts and the changes that have occurred in the court discourses and practices in recent decades. Michael G. Peletz approaches Malaysia’s sharia judiciary as a global assemblage and addresses important issues in the humanistic and social-scientific literature concerning how Malays and other Muslims engage ethical norms and deal with law, social justice, and governance in a rapidly globalizing world.

Nonie Darwish lived for thirty years in a majority Muslim nation. Everything about her life?family, sexuality, hygiene, business, banking, contracts, economics, politics, social issues, everything?was dictated by the Islamic law code known as Sharia. But Sharia isn't staying in majority Muslim nations. Darwish now lives in the West and brings a warning; the goal of radical Islam is to bring Sharia law to your country. If that happens, the fabric of Western law and liberty will be ripped in two. Under Sharia law: A woman can be beaten for talking to men who are not her relatives and flogged for not wearing a headdress Daughters, sisters, and wives can be legally killed by the men in their family Non-Muslims can be beheaded, and their Muslim killers will not receive the death penalty Certain kinds of child molestation are allowed The husband of a "rebellious" wife can deny her medical care or place her under house arrest Think it can't happen? In 2008, England?once the seat of Western liberty and now the home of many Muslim immigrants?declared that Sharia courts in Britain have the force of law. When Muslim populations reach as little as 1 or 2 percent, says Darwish, they begin making demands of the larger community, such as foot-level faucets for washing before praying in public schools, businesses, and airports. "Airports in Kansas City, Phoenix, and Indianapolis are among those who have already installed foot baths for Muslim cab drivers," writes Darwish. These demands test how far Westerners will go in accommodating the Muslim minority. How far will they push? The Organization of the Islamic Conference works to Islamize international human rights laws and apply Sharia "standards" for blasphemy to all nations. The penalty for blasphemy? Death. Weaving personal experience together with extensive documentation and research, Darwish exposes the facts and reveals the global threat posed by Sharia law. Anyone concerned about Western rights and liberties ignores her warning and analysis at their peril.

"Sharia, an Arabic word meaning "the right path," refers to traditional Islamic law. The Sharia comes from the Koran, the sacred book of Islam, which Muslims consider the actual word of God. The Sharia also stems from the Prophet Muhammad's teachings and interpretations of those teachings by certain Muslim legal scholars. Muslims believe that Allah (God) revealed his true will to Muhammad, who then passed on Allah's commands to humans in the Koran. Since the Sharia originated with Allah, Muslims consider it sacred. Between the seventh century when Muhammad died and the 10th century, many Islamic legal scholars attempted to interpret the Sharia and to adapt it to the expanding Muslim Empire. The classic Sharia of the 10th century represented an important part of Islam's golden age. From that time, the Sharia has continued to be reinterpreted and adapted to changing circumstances and new issues. In the modern era, the influences of Western colonialism generated efforts to codify it."--Definition from Constitutional rights foundation.

Sharia is by now a term that most Americans and Europeans recognize, though few really understand what it means. Often portrayed as a medieval system used by religious zealots to oppress women and deny human rights, conservative politicians, media commentators, and hardline televangelistsstoke fear by promoting the idea that Muslims want to impose a repressive Sharia rule in America and Europe. Despite the breadth of this propaganda, a majority of Muslims - men and women - support Sharia as a source of law. In fact, for many centuries Sharia has functioned for Muslims as a positivesource of guidance, providing a moral compass for individuals and society. This critical new book by John L. Esposito and Natana Delong-Bas aims to serve as a guide for what everybody needs to know in the conversation about Sharia, responding to misunderstandings and distortions, and offeringanswers to questions about the origin, nature, and content of Sharia.

Islam is the third of the three Abrahamic faiths. They share the heritage of monotheism. But Muslims are perceived with concern. They experience tensions not just with non-Muslims, but also with Muslims of related persuasions. The RAND Corporation Report highlights a range of challenges of the umma. These challenges stem from the politicisation of religion. Hawkish ulama re-interpreted Islam to justify unlawful wars of territorial expansion of the empire. Hawkish jurists reinvented Islam as Islamism, as a religion of war rather than peace. They misinterpreted the teaching of Islam by recourse to tradition and the teaching of abrogation. Revelation was "interpreted" to endorse practices that are against Islam. These encompass treating the refusal to pay zakat as deserving the death penalty. It also includes waging wars of aggression to "propagate" Islam by the sword. The Book of Allah refrains from treating apostasy as a crime punishable by death. The prophet did not take any person's life for apostasy, either. Prescribing the death penalty for apostasy required by-passing revelation. Recourse to tradition enabled politicised ulama to produce "traditional Islam." Recourse to the teaching of the "abrogation" of the verses of reconciliation by verse 9:5 enabled hawkish ulama to re-interpret Islam as a manifesto for war and a justification for territorial expansion. Replacing the rulings in the Book of Allah required the treatment of tradition as "revelation" and therefore as a "second" root of the law. But treating tradition as "revelation" (wahy) is not enough to derive religious rulings from tradition. For religious rulings require being derived from what Allah "sent down" (tanzil). This is clear from verses 44, 45 and 47 of chapter 5 of the Book of Allah. By contrast, wahy (inspiration) could be provided by evil beings, too. By deriving rulings of the sharia from tradition, jurists treated traditions not merely as wahy (inspiration) but as tanzil or what Allah "sent down." But enacting law in religion is the exclusive prerogative of Allah. Treating tradition as a root of legislation defies the teaching of the Book of Allah. For the Book teaches that we are to "judge" exclusively by tanzil, (what Allah sent down). But Allah sent down the Book of Allah; he did not "send down" books of traditions. Blasphemy, adultery and apostasy do not merit capital punishment in the Book of Allah. These rulings represent a corruption of Islamic law. This requires attention. Islamic law requires rehabilitation to ensure that all legislation related to religion is firmly rooted in revelation and only in revelation. Prescribing capital punishment in cases of blasphemy, adultery and apostasy disregards the Book of Allah and encroaches upon tawhid, the principle that the authority to enact laws in religion belongs to Allah alone. Is treating tradition as a "second" root of legislation in keeping with tauhid? Thus, the sharia requires rehabilitation. It is necessary to emphasize justice. It is necessary to restore the Book of Allah as the only root of legislation in all matters related to religion. Following tradition in preference to revelation brought disasters upon the umma. The Mongols devastated the Abbasid empire after the murder of a caravan of Mongol traders and ambassadors sent by Genghis Khan to request justice for the killers of the traders and ambassadors. The Abbasids perpetrated these transgressions because they followed the tradition which says that "the blood of the kafir is halal for the believer" in preference to the Book of Allah that teaches that "Allah does not love wrongdoers." The Abbasids paid dearly for confusing tradition with revelation and following tradition in preference to revelation. Even to this day, acts of terrorism elicit a disproportionate response against Muslims.

"[A] summer must read." — SEAN HANNITY, Fox News "[No Go Zones] should be required reading for conservatives, Republicans, liberals, teachers, students, reporters, editors, and activists all alike." —NIGEL FARAGE, Member of the European Parliament No Go Zones. That's what they're called. And while the politically correct try to deny their existence, the shocking reality of these "No Go Zones"—where Sharia law can prevail and local police stay away—can be attested to by its many victims. Now Raheem Kassam, a courageous reporter and editor at Breitbart, takes us where few journalists have dared to tread—inside the No Go Zones, revealing areas that Western governments, including the United States, don't want to admit exist within their own borders. With compelling reporting, Kassam takes you into Islamic areas you might not even know existed—communities, neighborhoods, and whole city districts from San Bernardino, California, (a No Go Zone of the mind) to Hamtramck, Michigan (essentially an Islamic colony in the Midwest); from Malmö, Sweden, to the heart of London, England—where infidels are unwelcome, Islamic law is king, and extremism grows. In No Go Zones, Kassam reveals: How in No Go Zones a blind eye is being turned to polygamy, female genital mutilation, sexual assault, segregation, and even honor killings Why Muslim ghettos in the West aren't the equivalent of Little Italy or Chinatown, but a serious cultural and political threat How the welfare state actually funds and supports a Muslim subculture of resentment How to identify extremist mosques A matter of numbers: how mass migration could transform Europe into a Muslim-dominated continent within our own lifetimes The alarming speed at which No Go Zones are coming to America Compelling in its reporting, shocking in its detail, Raheem Kassam's No Go Zones is one of the most frightening true stories you will read this year.

A direct counterpoint to fear mongering headlines about shariah law—a Muslim American legal expert tells the real story, eliminating stereotypes and assumptions with compassion, irony, and humor Through scare tactics and deliberate misinformation campaigns, anti-Muslim propagandists insist wrongly that shariah is a draconian and oppressive Islamic law that all Muslims must abide by. They circulate horror stories, encouraging Americans to fear the “takeover of shariah” law in America and even mounting “anti-shariah protests” . . . . with zero evidence that shariah has taken over any part of our country. (That’s because it hasn’t.) It would be almost funny if it weren’t so terrifyingly wrong—as puzzling as if Americans suddenly began protesting the Martian occupation of Earth. Demystifying Shariah explains that shariah is not one set of punitive rules or even law the way we think of law—rigid and enforceable—but religious rules and recommendations that provide Muslims with guidance in various aspects of life. Sumbul Ali-Karamali draws on scholarship and her degree in Islamic law to explain shariah in an accessible, engaging narrative style—its various meanings, how it developed, and how the shariah-based legal system operated for over a thousand years. She explains what shariah means not only in the abstract but in the daily lives of Muslims. She discusses modern calls for shariah, what they mean, and whether shariah is the law of the land anywhere in the world. She also describes the key lies and misunderstandings about shariah circulating in our public discourse, and why so many of them are nonsensical. This engaging guide is intended to introduce you to the basic principles, goals, and general development of shariah and to answer questions like: How do Muslims engage with shariah? What does shariah have to do with our Constitution? What does shariah have to do with the way the world looks like today? And why do we all—Muslims or not—need to care?
