I am not talking about the entire corpus of Sharia Law. I understand that a lot of it is from rulings of Scholars of old (of course derived from Quran and Ahadith) and is often limited in scope and is not binding upon all times or all places. Please read the late Pakistan ideologue Muhammad Asad, director of the defunct Dept of Islamic reconstruction for more details.

What I was talking about was a specific and clear law directly in the Quran which is generally applicable for all times and places (I am also aware that a judge may make an exception, but exceptions are rare by their very nature). So let me ask you do you agree with another unequal law directly in the Quran which is generally applicable for all times and places: a Man can have four wives (with certain conditions) but a woman only one husband?
Coming onto slavery. Islam wishes to eradicate slavery to other men and replace it with slavery to God and it is good the Muslim states have eradicated slavery. However no law in the Quran can be abrogated by any combination of States or Scholars. So the law which allows "right hand possessions" is valid of course with certain criteria. And I am agreeable to this. Even if Muslim states have eradicated slavery, slavery could come back again (temporarily) particularly during a war or after a war. Muslims may find themselves with slaves from the enemy and so there are law(s) for dealing with them with the view of re-integrating them back to society. Ideally there should not be any wars however as you know that ain't gonna happen. Secondly, an Islamic state might find itself, in future, in control of territory where slavery already exists and therefore there are laws in place to deal with this with the view of re-integrating slaves back into society. (This second point is unlikely nowadays but the first example still stands).
Even if all wars were eradicated and there was no slavery whatsoever, even then that law could not be abrogated as it is in the Quran and that book is valid till the Hour.
Please do not confuse the fact that their are laws about slaves in the Quran with the idea that the Quran promotes slavery or encourages Muslims to seek slaves.
You are fully aware that no Muslim state is truly acting in accordance with Quran and Sunnah, especially so called ISIS.
Now are there any other laws in the Quran that you are ashamed of??

I never claimed that every single law in Sharia is for all times and places. I was writing about specific clear laws directly from the Quran, namely unequal inheritance and limited polygamy for men only.If you understand something then why do you claim the exact opposite ? If you understand that the shariah is based off old schools of thought and is mainly relevant to the times that it was derived in then it's clear that certain amendments need to be made for it to be compatible with the modern world. And no I do not think it is suitable for either man or woman to have 4 spouses. It has no application in the modern world. Do you agree with it though ?

Amendements can only be made to those laws directly not from the Quran and Sunnah. To do otherwise is to play God! And the Scholars/Muslim States have been doing this!
What is applicable for one man may not be for another. If you are not wanting to marry four, does not mean another does not want to marry four. If you cannot marry four does not mean another cannot. Applicability changes with times and places. I would agree that in the modern world it is very difficult to marry four, however I would not go so far as to ban that law or to say that I disagree with that law.
Do you agree with the modern world making Riba permissible?
I am asking your heart whether you agree with it or not. I know your hand and tongue can do nothing.Well to be fair it doesn't matter whether I agree or not. A world without interest based transactions is impossible. This is like asking do I agree with people being employed. There can be no economic growth without interest all Muslim countries are aware of this (as do the lawmakers who are in dispute over the exact meaning of Rina). Even "Islamic Banking" knows this. If you don't "agree" with it then please put forward a system that could overhaul the existing one on a global scale.
