Sharia law should not be recognised in Ireland

It is reported that up to 85 Sharia Courts are “operating” in the UK. Marchteld Zee, a Dutch academic, interviewed a variety of sharia ‘experts’ and Islamic Judges (quads).

Ms Zee is of the opinion that “Sharia councils uphold the theory and practice of the stronghold men have over women”.

Sharia is the Islamic legal system derived from the precepts of Islam, particularly the Quran and Hadith.
