UK Sharia Courts:Amputations are Necessary for Safety


Just yesterday I posted that non-Muslim Brits have started using the UK Sharia Courts for certain cases. Will they still be willing to use them as the punishments get more severe, or will they finally wake up and realize that they have opened Pandora's Box?

Hat tip to The Religion of Peace.


'Harsh Islamic punishments will make Britain safer'
London, Wed, 22 Jul 2009ANI

London, July 22 (ANI): The Founder of Britain's oldest Sharia court has said that harsh Islamic punishments, such as the amputation of limbs, will make Britain a safer place.

The Daily Times quoted Sheikh Suhaib Hasan, secretary of the Islamic Sharia Council, as saying that the enforcement of Sharia law was "something to bring you more peace and security".

Hasan, president of an East London Sharia court, admitted that that he doesn't expect Britain to implement Islamic criminal laws as it is not a Muslim country.

He, however, added that problems such as 'knife crimes' would be resolved if harsher punishments were meted out because they worked as a deterrent.

Acknowledging the controversy surrounding any notion of support for hardline Islamic law in Britain, he said he was merely expressing his point of view as a devout Muslim. (ANI)
