Sharia Law breaches English Law on human rights decides the House of Lords

By John Hirst

Sharia Law breaches English Law on human rights decides the House of Lords

"The House of Lords [yesterday] drew stark attention to the conflict between sharia and UK law, calling the Islamic legal code "wholly incompatible" with human rights legislation.

The remarks came as the Lords considered the case of a woman who, if she was sent back to Lebanon, would be obliged under sharia law to hand over custody of her 12-year-old son to a man who beat her, threw her off a balcony and, on one occasion, attempted to strangle her.

The woman was seeking asylum in the UK to avoid the provisions of sharia law that give fathers or other male family members the exclusive custody of children over seven".

I am glad that sense is beginning to shine through given that I have already expressed the same opinion here.
