Islamic law to be enshrined in British law as solicitors get guidelines on 'Sharia compliant' wills

slamic laws for inheritance are to be introduced in UK laws.. also that a Will in Islamic law cannot be for the whole assets, only a certain percentage of assets can be willed in favor of someone, meaning heirs cannot be deprived.

Actually no. According to the UK laws, a person can divide his/her assets in a will in whatever manner they wish to. What this guidance does is provide information to lawyers on what the sharia system of inheritance is and how to go about drafting a will if a person wishes to follow the sharia in the case of inheritance for his/her property.
There are no changes being made to the UK law.

This sort of Sharia type of inheritance using wills is already being made use of by people who wish to use it. However they are more discrete about it. These guidelines which are designed to make it easier for lawyers to help their clients who wish to use this system will make its use a lot more common.

The debate right now is should the UK law society be providing such guidelines which help certain people more easily discriminate against women, children born out of wedlock, etc which is contrary to British sensibilities. Some people also say that such guidelines may be contrary to the spirit of the equality laws in the country.
 
It has got nothing to do with Sharia. They are trying to accommodate "inheritance laws" of one portion of their population. Nothing wrong with that. India also has certain laws, so does Pakistan, as long as they don't interfere with the guiding principles of constitution. It's retarded to think that Sharia is taking over.

Seems logical explanation. Good points.
 
And what direction is that exactly?

Muslims love to play the victim card, they have made absolutely zero contribution to our society and are still more than happy to take the facilities.


Then why UK is bending backwards to accommodate religious laws, that too some very regressive laws that seems to clearly discriminate against women? I must say this is a sad development that may encourage demand for more such regressive laws in future.

What makes any of you think that any of the Shariat laws are discriminatory towards women? For Islamic laws to make sense to people like you, infidels in general, you have to look at the broader picture. In a true Islamic society, the women are provided for by the males.....that is their husbands, fathers, sons & brothers and the state provides for them if no one else can. For this reason, the male heirs get twice the share of their female siblings, also do not forget that these laws were introduced when you were burying your newborn daughters!! Actually, you guys still do that so what's the point.

Furthermore, Islam refuses to acknowledge illegitimate relations and there are serious punishments for such acts. Immoral acts of consensual illicit relations have no justifications, under Islam.

Muslims love to play the victim card, they have made absolutely zero contribution to our society and are still more than happy to take the facilities.

So why don't you throw all of them out?? Ah wait, you cannot, because they are actually the educated, hard-working lot that work hard, pay their taxes and do wonders that you can only speak of! No wonder you are ever willing to provide immigration to talents that you desperately need!

Maybe in your opinion women should stay at home and not build their own careers but this view is not shared by the millions of Muslim women in the UK who study, build careers and think that they are equal to other men.
You also may think that a man or a woman shoudn't have sexual relations outside of marriage but what blame will you apply to the children born out of wedlock who are disowned and left to their own devices?

The debate right now is should the UK law society be providing such guidelines which help certain people more easily discriminate against women, children born out of wedlock, etc which is contrary to British sensibilities.

Next time try to read the whole sentence instead of picking words out of context. The sharia law on inheritance does discriminate on those basis. This is against the sensibilities of the vast majority of people in the UK. You can only discriminate in this manner in this case because the law allows your divide your property in whatever way you wish. If you attempt to do these stunts outside of this context, you will be prosecuted under the equalities laws which was drafted and enforced by 21st century Britain.

In my own opinion, these laws which were drafted in 7th century Arabia are not suitable for life in 21st century Britain but at the same time my libertarian sensibilities do not want the government to intrude into my personal life.
 
the direction that has no concern to you......
As a British Citizen it is more of concern to me then it is to you.

You are wrong, you have to provide for all your children even illegitimate ones, your sin is not transferred to your son or daughter that you are going to deprive them of sustenance.

South Asians may have a lot of poor in UK but that does not tell the whole story either. Pakistanis are also the third richest ethnic group in UK after Whites and Indians not to mention Indians may have Muslims among them as well.

British Pakistanis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ethnic groupMedian total wealth
White British £221,000
Indian £204,000
Pakistani £97,000
Black Caribbean £76,000
Other Asian £50,000
Black African £21,000
Bangladeshi £15,000

You made your opinion on his country's future so it does concern him.

This is inheritance laws that only have to do with Muslims, while they shouldn't be passing such laws anyway even if they do it would not affect him at all.

A move in the positive direction. :tup:
If the educated European elites bend over so easily to fascism, they have no right to question why the Afghans prefer the Taliban! :hitwall:

There is no fascism. Only rational thinking by Brits.

Moreover, Western laws have a tremendous influence from Islamic Law already. Read legal theory and history sometime.

Here is a good starter

Contribution of Islamic Law to English Law and International Law

Or how about this?

Give your jealousy and anti-Muslim hatred a rest!

Typical lie by neo-nazis who just hate everybody that is not white.

Muslims make tremendous contribution to Britain on daily basis. There are thousands of lawyers, doctors, engineers, social workers, media persons, nurses, and businessmen/business women in Britain who are Muslims and serve Britain more than a jobless nutcase like you can ever imagine!

There are 10,000 Muslim millionaires in Britain...creating hundreds of thousands of jobs and contributing to the economic and cultural life of Britain. Forget millionaires and billionaires, even average Muslims make uncountable contributions of Britain's welfare...

"In London alone, an estimated 33.6 percent of all small to medium enterprises and businesses are Muslim-owned. With over 13,400 Muslim-owned businesses, they have created more than 70,000 jobs and some have gone to become big household brand names."

Muslim hatred blinds everyone here. And "indians" just LOVE to give "thanks" to your anti-Muslim racist bigoted rantings.
