View Full Version : Celebrity Lives - Sharia Style

What would happen if you took high profile celebrity marriages, divorces and legal wrangles and settled them under Sharia law? The answers are rather surprising. Madonna might not have ended up paying Guy Ritchie anything. Sir Paul McCartney and Heather Mills might have done better to consider an Islamic-style marriage contract, where the norm is to agree a settlement figure before marriage.

Just over a year since the Archbishop of Canterbury made his provocative comments on Sharia law, Ajmal Masroor, a leading British Muslim and London imam, enlists the help of legal and Islamic commentators to explore the pros and cons of accommodating some parts of Sharia to the settling of civil disputes amongst British Muslims.

'Kabalah' sounds like a fighting style.

As part of her dance of martial arts death, Madonna would probably utilise Cornetto stillettos.

Anyway, I'll check this programme out inshallah.

you can't miss it, it makes prime time news
Madonna is always in Israel purchasing kabbalah gifts for her fashionably black adopted kid with her pal Britney etc etc

it is actually another reason to get your news from independent sources-- I have unfortunately sat through alot of 'is your pet psychic' and '103 proven methods to trap yourself a man' before converting to other sources!

Anywho back to the topic. My thoughts on the video:

* I thought it was pretty well balanced - he showed view points from muslims agreeing with sharia law and those who disagreed with it.
* It was relevant and up to date
* He went to Leicester
* He spoke with the right people who knew what they were talking about
* He concluded pretty much what I've been saying about sharia law: it is awesome and compatible with UK law (civil side anyway)!
