SHARIA LAW COURTS TO BECOME OFFICIAL
ONE LAW FOR THEM ANOTHER FOR US.
A SPECIAL adviser to the King of Abu Dhabi says he has “great faith” in the UK’s first official sharia law court in Nuneaton.
During a one-day tour of Birmingham, Sheikh Syed Ali Al Hashmi spoke about mutual benefits of the Muslim Arbitration Tribunal, which has used sharia law to settle hundreds of civil disputes across the country since it began in 2007.
The tribunal, which operates in tandem with the British legal system, was set up by a group of lawyers at Hijaz College Islamic University, in Watling Street, Nuneaton.
Cases being heard in Nuneaton include forced marriages, family, charitable, and inheritance disputes.
Once parties agree to settle a dispute, they are bound in English law to abide by the court’s decision which is upheld by a county court bailiff or high court sheriff.
Mr Hashmi had been invited to the UK by Noor Siddiqi, director of solicitors firm Artis Legal, in Birmingham, to strengthen ties between the West Midlands and Abu Dhabi.

It comes to something when Foreign rulers have more of a say in what happens in Britain today than our own useless scrounging Queen does.
