There are 300 thousands Jews in England. Among them only 18% are orthodox who obey all the rules.
There is difference when special religious rights are given to few thousands of people and to 2 million people.
Of course this is just my point and Brittish problem.

I'm fairly certain that a divorce (for example) obtained via the Beth Din courts are recognised by civil law, meaning that they don't have to go through civil courts as well.
 
Absolutely not. Even Muslims themselves are embarrassed about many aspects of Shariah law let alone most non Muslims who are dismayed that these laws are still being implemented in the world today.

I would say that the closest we will get is Shariah-compliant banking, and even this is just a clever way for banks to gain more customers as opposed to anyone 'seeing the light' of Shariah.
 
you shouldn't speak for Muslims if you are not one!

Considering most of my family and friends are Muslims (yes, I still have respect for Muslims, contrary to what you may think based on my opinions of Islam) and the many other Muslims I have met and often have these sorts of discussions with, I feel that, yes, I can offer a general opinion based upon my own observations. Can you prove me wrong?

your observations? exactly what am I working with your subjective opinion?
 
Britain isn't an Islamic State, so Shariah will be hard, as a working system, to implement. A whole load of things need to change in Britain for a true version of the Shariah, the law of Allah Subhaanahu wa ta'aala to be used.

I hate how the media has denoted a negative sound to the word "Shariah"... when infact it's a liberation for corrupted society and preservation of a healthy society :imsad

Really, what makes you say that?

Oh I dunno, maybe it's the fact that a handful of countries in the Islamic world actually implement it- and even then, I have people telling me the Saudis aren't actually doing it 'right' after all. Then you have civil wars in Muslim majority countries, where the population, despite being Muslim, doesn't want Sharia- Sudan and Somalia, for example.

Now, seeing as there are only about two or three countries in the Muslim world (made up of dozens of countries) who actually implement Sharia, and even then it isn't done properly, what chance does Sharia stand in a Muslim minority country? It would commit suicide from the word 'go'.

I could suggest several things but instead I will simply say, accept it for what is is, an opinion. I wonder how many such 'opinions' will be allowed under Shariah Law or maybe that is why you are so interested in getting it implemented?

If by "healthy society" you mean one ruled by fear and one in which people of different faiths are not treated equally, then I suppose you are right.

1-accept your opinion at face value? No thanks, least of which after familiarizing myself with your writing!
2- From which esteemed university did you graduate with a degree in Islamic philosophy and jurisprudence as to pass us this new fatwa on 'opinions'?

funny stuff as usual!

No, and your ignorance is too high to warrant an explanation. Educate yourself in Islamic Jurisprudence and you will find everything you just said is wrong. There is no fear, and people of different faiths are in fact protected by Islamic Law. The justice of Shariah to anyone with even an ounce of aql (rationality) is apparent.

Having few scientist friends and family members do not make one a scientist or an expert on science. So is what you just said regarding Islam. Are you really that insane? Maybe that explains your current belief system.
