American Islamic Group Supports Ban On "Foreign Law" Which Includes Sharia


Take that CAIR/ACLU:
....In a separate debate, the American Islamic Leadership Conference (AILC) recently announced support for a Michigan bill (HB 4679) that would prevent state judges from utilizing foreign laws. This, to the surprise of some, would include Sharia law. This group, comprised of Muslim adherents, is opposed do any state court decisions that would conflict with American law.

Muslim Canadian Congress Recently they urged the Obama administration to stop promoting extremist Muslims and as an added bonus, they specifically condemned CAIR for not doing so. MCC urges Obama Administration to distance itself from Islamists promoting doctrine of 'armed jihad' and Sharia Law Although the American Islamic Forum for Democracy has refused to support laws that banned the use of sharia by the courts alone, they have come out in support of laws the forbid the courts to use foreign laws that include sharia. In addition Jasser has specifically said that he did not want sharia to be a part of the U.S legal system. Islamic Law Ban In State Courts Petitioned By Muslims
 
Here's an article about another liberal Muslim group that came out against sharia being enforcement by our courts. American Muslims speak out against enforcement of shari‘ah law in America

Pastorius,

What is Abraham Hooper going to do now? How is he going to accuse Muslims of being Islamophobic? Is he going to accuse them of being Uncle Toms? It will be interesting to see CAIR's official response to this, if there's any reaction at all. Isn't this like the third Muslim group in America that I've heard of that has come out against sharia?

Damien said...

Actually its the third or fourth Islamic group that has done so that, I know of.

Pastorius said...

We may have posted on these other ones.

Do you have links, Damien? If you do, I will include them all in this post.

Pastorius,

One of them maybe the group, Muslims Against Sharia.

That was the first one that I heard about, and I think you may have actually posted one or two things about them a long time ago.

Another Liberal Muslims organization, that I have heard of is the Muslim Canadian Congress

Ironically you posted it at the end of another story you posted over here at the IBA about the New York Times coming out in support of sharia.

CAIR is hysterical. They are claiming that adhering ONLY to american law (i.e. really, the Constitution) violates the Constitution?

Not allowing Sharia to be considered violates the Constitution?

ROTFLMAO!!!

Damien said...

Epaminondas,

Are they really? I would love to see their convoluted arguments.

Damien said...

Just out of curiosity, I just checked out CAIR's website. Not surprisingly, they are not even mentioning this. They know that having Muslims speak out against the use of sharia in our legal system doesn't make them look good, since it goes against their lie that only ones concerned with the issue are irrational bigots.

Admitting this will not help them, and I think they know it.
