They settle domestic disputes, rule on financial disagreements and even grant marriages and divorces, which sounds rather benign but what is kept secret is the “intimidation backed by death threats”…and worse from sharia (Islamic) courts.
Daily Star Recent attempts by the Ministry of Justice to investigate the courts were abandoned following a lack of co-operation from Muslim elders.
Often based in small rooms above shops or empty flats, the courts are used by thousands of Muslims to settle a range of disputes. Islamic clerics issue fatwas – rulings on Islamic law – and resolve issues involving business practice and deal with complaints of police brutality against Muslims.
According to research by think tank Civitas, in 2009 there were 85 Sharia courts across the UK. But sources in the Muslim community claim there could now be that many in London alone.
Founded in 1985 by exiled Syrian cleric Omar Bakri Mohammed, the centre we visited in East London is one of several UK branches supervised by notorious hate preacher Anjem Choudary. Others include Luton and Derby.
Inside a basement property in Whitechapel, Choudary presides over a steady stream of Muslim devotees happy to accept his rulings rather than seek judgment from the British justice system.

Aspiring restaurant boss Abu Muslim, 20, dropped by for advice on the sale of alcohol and rules regarding the preparation of halal food. He told us: “Just because I live in this country does not mean I am obliged to follow this (British) law. My law is Islam – the law that God has sent. If I go to the jungle tomorrow I am not going to go to the monkey for the advice.
“With the judgments they are giving out in this country, even the monkeys would give better justice. You cannot trust those people. As Muslims we can’t use any other system of law.”
Umm Aqsa visited Choudary to ask his advice on how to help her daughters, aged seven and nine, avoid the “abortion and teenage pregnancy” she believes is infecting the education system in Tower Hamlets.
The burka-clad mum said: “Girls as young as ten are getting pregnant. These things would never be allowed in Islam. I don’t want my children exposed to these things. “I teach my children English but I do not teach them Shakespeare. It is full of fornication. I also would not want them exposed to the evolution theory. It’s a false ideology.”
In February we revealed the cleric taught six of the nine Muslims jailed for plotting to blow up the London Stock Exchange, sparking calls from MPs for him to be arrested.
Last night. Choudary, the 44-year-old former lawyer, who says he does not charge people to use the courts (of course not, he is totally supported by the UK welfare state), said: “Thanks to the network of Sharia courts Muslims have no need to engage with the British state or its institutions. This momentum, Inshallah (God willing), will eventually result in the implementation of the Sharia in Britain.”
Last month Baroness Cox spoke about the dangers of Sharia law, saying: “We do not at the moment have the most brutal punishments but there are those in this country who would like to bring them in. “Many Sharia courts are an institutional means of intimidation backed by death threats.”
So so sad to see all of this happening; but then again, they LET it happen by NOT putting a STOP to this crap the minute it started by being PC! And this is WHAT the hell happens; they CREEP in and bring their SHARIA with them.
YOU can NOT be PC when it comes to these heathens and their barbaric laws. IT must be stopped America
they don’t want young girls (10 years old) to get pregnut but let a 40 year old man merry one when she 6 or less years old then have sex with her.
i still say the muslim are sick in the head to marry a child
Sharia courts are a crock of shit, we already know they are sexist…….. Period. Close them and deport muslims- simple solution.
of course they have no need for British law they have no intention of assimilating into any society adn the cartoon of Tony Blair is appropriate. that woman who is worried about her daughters will have them beaten by their husbands very very soon.
These smelly disgusting looking pigs! I don’t believe they always wash their feet before praying. Or maybe just their feet, and thats it. You ever pass one of those female pigs in the store? Stinky!!! No wonder their men play with little boys.
I’ve come across that very thing, bubsmom. SERIOUS funk comes off of some of them…
Of course, a lot of new immigrants have a different odor to them, no matter where they come from. It’s usually faint, though, as most non-Mohammedan women DO bathe regularly. Some of that is due to the foods they were used to eating that are different from what we in the West generally tend to eat.
Still and all, it cannot be helpful to smelling pleasant to be so heavily garbed in a mobile cloth tent.
Draconian, discriminatory, supremacist, misogynistic Sharia law is the perfect law code for 7th century desert barbarian bandits on camels.
Backwardness for backward, inbred minds.
I think I’ll start my own court.
jFp – Go the full hog and start your own Religion,that way you could make it up as you go along,just like the muzzies do.LOL.
When is Her Majesty going to wear her first
burkah. I am sure the Prime Minister will be advising her, after all everyone must make sacrifices when Saudi Money is needed to keep the coffers full.
I have heard that a lobster can be cooked alive if you gentally raise the temperature in the crock pot to boiling a degree at a time. Maybe this is what is happening in England.
Make that cooked alive with out the lobster noticing what is happening.
There is something deeply upsetting seeing protests and petitions for change – all pushed by men with dirty unkempt beards. Their smiles are smug as if hiding something.
Is it just me? Am I too sensitive? Or is there something deeply evil about the face of Islam as portrayed here? I would love to be wrong but don’t think I am.
Why is every smug, antagonistic face hidden behind a beard (that looks like it hasn’t been washed or groomed since 1972) that pushes for changes that are not in keeping with a justice and legal system which has worked pretty well for over 1000 years?
Nope, It’s not just you…
He’s wrong when he says “If I go to the jungle tomorrow I am not going to go to the monkey for the advice.” Britain was not a jungle until the muslim freeloaders arrived and it’s citizens are definitely not monkeys, in fact neither are muslims, they aren’t as civilized as monkeys.
If anyone is looking for fairness & justice they will NOT find it in sharia courts unless they are a muslim male who has either raped or beaten a female.
He says that, and I was thinking, “If he goes to the jungle tomorrow and doesn’t go to the monkey for advice, he’ll soon be a dead man. The monkey knows how to survive in the jungle.”
Let’s hope he goes to the jungle soon…
Problem: Isdamn. Solution: expel & exclude Muslims.
Do you have any idea where Mr Choudary lives.
waffle, perhaps one of our British readers knows?
Yeah we know but he’s got police protection,you would not get near the bastard.
trin, you mean to tell me you are paying for your police to protect this POS?
Many of them have Bonni,strange but true.
It’s not obvious but it’s there,do you not think that we would love to deal with this f**ker?
The tossers always say that they hate the police but you watch ANY video when the EDL turn up they hide behind the ob.For our part,we won’t attack the police,many of them are ex forces,not only that we do respect them,you get the odd idiot copper but most rank and file are good people.
We believe in British(English for the picky people)law,we don’t get to pick and choose what laws we obey,well we do,we just don’t like getting caught breaking them !!! LOL
trin, too bad you guys aren’t armed over there. Andy needs one between the eyes.
There are ALWAYS ways to get to someone under police protection. They’re difficult, and will probably cost someone their freedom, if not their life, but it COULD be done.
*beatific smile*
Put two hundred masked men on top of him and it wouldn’t matter who was guarding him.
time to take off the pc gloves and start kicking some muslim butt, put these arseholes in their place make sharia courts illegal.
Damn straight, mate!! Time to kick their arselifter arses all the way back to the Mideast, unless of course they were born in the West, then just kick them the hell out of the country where they do not wish to abide by the laws of the land, send them to where the Shariah Sh– they prefer prevails!! And see how long it takes before they are wishing they once again had the freedom they threw away for Pislam!!
When the politicians start to speak some truth about the mohommedists and take action on behalf of the victums of mohommedism maybe things will change and mohommedists will be sent back to their Troglodyte caves.

I seem to recall a dispute between Henry II & Thomas Becket over the right of secular courts to try religious men who broke secular law.
I suppose that this dispute, ending as it did, took the spine out of Her Majesty’s Government.
Too bad.
OK i think what muslim person said about not abidbing by laws is funny cause I cant take it serious. However people are too stupid that they DO him serious and thats the scarey part.
It says in the article, that,”Choudary presides over a steady stream of Muslim devotees happy to accept his rulings rather than seek judgment from the British justice system”. I am under the impression, this vile abhorrent individual is collecting Benefits (welfare to USA). Which means he should declare any earnings, as well as be available to work. I hope he does the former, & is ready to do the latter. Can anyone find out if the odious Choudry is complying with the legal requirements?
David, I posted a video of Choudarhead a long time ago that showed him bragging about living off welfare even though
he has a license to practice law in the UK. He said the government owes it to him.
…and this is why I reject Islam, false god, supremacist ideology and all the crap that goes with it. If you don’t like British law, stop calling yourselves British, it is an insult. Do not bring your ridiculous ideology to this country when you have chosen to leave the countries where it was law. If you don’t like the British way of life, its quite simple – leave! And close the door behind you.
… and when they leave, say to them, “May the doorknob hit’cha where the Good Lord split’cha!”
Every politician in Britain that accepts and tolerates the existence of Sharia Law in England must be publicly charged with high treason against God, decency, children, humanity and the free world.
