The impact of Islamic Sharia Courts in Britain

Salt Shakers – E- News – 18th July 2013

In the UK, Islamic ‘Sharia Councils’ or courts have been established – under legislation which provided for the establishment of Arbitration Tribunals. There are now 85 such sharia courts around the UK which make rulings according to Islamic law.

A BBC documentary, presented by reporter Jane Corbin, recently exposed what happens in some of these Sharia Councils.
Link to the video is below.

Many people have expressed concern about the use of these Sharia Courts – they deal with a range of issues such as marital disputes, domestic violence, divorce and othermatters.
Since the Sharia Councils operate in accordance with Islamic law, the rulings are sometimes not in accordance with British law and they often disadvantage women. They sometimes deal with areas, such as child custody, which are supposed to be dealt with by the regular court system. Those subjected to the rulings often feel they have to obey them, even though they are not legally binding.

There should be ONE law for ALL – not a separatesystem operating on Islamic law. We need to learn from the British experience – and reject any introduction of ‘sharia law’ courts or rulings in Australia.

Baroness Cox, a member of the House of Lords, introduced the Arbitration and Mediation Services (Equality) Bill legislation into the House of Lords in October 2012. The Bill is aimed at curbing the growth of parallel legal systems in the UK. The Bill would limit the power of the Sharia Courts and ensure they operate in accordance with British law, especially in areas such as polygamy, divorce and discrimination against women (source).

Time to re think Islamic terrorism – It’s a war stupid

Irish Central ^ | Ed Farnan – Posted on May 29, 2013

The Boston terror bombing brings home the fact we are in a state of war, even though our government leaders don’t want to acknowledge it.

The attitude by the present administration is eerily similar to what the Clinton administration had, that lead up to the 9/11/2001 terror attacks. Criminalizing terror is in fact ignoring the active war being waged against our country and western society. As if we don’t name it, then it doesn’t really exist.

During the Clinton administration, our world trade center was attacked with a truck bomb and our embassies in Africa were bombed killing hundreds.

Later, in a frank moment, Clinton admitted he screwed up when he had a chance to kill Osama Bin Laden and didn’t take it, because: He had “no controlling legal authority to do so.”

This is lawyer talk, not a commander in chief who is responsible for the safety of American citizens….

In Store Wars, the Empire Strikes Back

Tony Perkins – Washington Update – July 16, 2013

When religious liberty collides with same-sex “marriage,” something has to give. And usually, that “something” is Christians’ rights. In this mad dash to redefine marriage in America, many in society are so focused on giving homosexuals their way that they aren’t stopping to see who gets trampled underfoot. The real victims, who include children, religious business owners, and employees across the country, have been lost in a convenient storyline of inequality and discrimination.

While the media spills oceans of ink on the perceived injustice toward same-sex couples, very few reporters are telling the stories of Christians being hauled into court, before human rights commissions, and even their own employers for subscribing to a view on marriage that — until last year — President Barack Obama shared! In the meantime, wedding vendors from Washington State to New Jersey are trapped in the middle, wondering why their rights are suddenly less important than homosexuals’. When did it become acceptable to sacrifice the freedoms of conscience and free exercise of religion on the same-sex “wedding” altar?

Has Egypt’s experiment with Islamism failed?

By Dan Murphy JewishWorldReview.com |

The Muslim Brotherhood’s dominance may be over but its members may yet rejoice.

Making sense of the rough and tumble of politics in the shadow of the pyramids

CAIRO — (TCSM) When mass protests broke out against Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak on Jan. 25, 2011, the Muslim Brotherhood was on the cusp of a historic opportunity.

The Brothers didn’t start or organize the protests. That honor belonged to a loose coalition of leftists, democratic reformers, and Internet activists who used the murder of a young businessman by Egypt’s thuggish police, and the example of Tunisia’s own revolt, as the springboard for a history-altering uprising. The Brotherhood, fearful of a government crackdown as always, didn’t even join the protests until the handwriting was on the wall.

But the Brothers knew they were Egypt’s most popular and best-organized grass-roots movement and were perfectly poised to take advantage of a political opening. They grabbed the opportunity.

Now, 2-1/2 years later Mohamed Morsi, the man the Brothers propelled to Egypt’s presidency, is under house arrest, and his allies swept from political office and influence by the military. Brotherhood news media have been shuttered and arrest warrants issued for the group’s leaders. The same military that gave them their chance at power when it deposed Mr. Mubarak booted them from office in a second coup after protests that dwarfed those of 2011.

Great weekend for RUAP & CTFM in Albany & Perth, WA / Almost all seats now covered for Federal Election

Dear family & friends in Christ,

We thank and praise God for His mighty presence at every single meeting this past weekend in Albany & Perth, WA as Pr Daniel spoke at 5 different meetings in public and church venues.

The presence of God was so real at every meeting, including all the RUAP campaign meetings.

What was most amazing was that many people were in tears, as there was such a tangible presence of God at all the meetings.

RUAP now has candidates in almost every seat in WA along with #1 & # 2 Senate Candidates.

Pr Daniel stated,  “I will not lead this campaign if God does not lead me. I want His presence to be with me. I do not want to go before Him or lag behind Him. Oh, Lord help me walk with You.

I know God will use RUAP to bring Australia back to Jesus, as we have seen so many people accept the Lord into their lives at RUAP meetings. It is the presence of God that makes the difference.”

At some of the meetings there were so many unchurched people, including several who were so impacted by RUAP that they took membership and offered to help with our campaign.

On Sunday night at the public campaign meeting, the whole crowd stood up after Pr Daniel finished his speech, started clapping and would not stop. The place was just buzzing with excitement.

Pr Daniel also shared the prophetic word that he received from Pr Norm Armstrong about Smith Wigglesworth’s well known prophetic word pertaining to the coming end time move of God and revival in Australia.

Successful RUAP Canberra & Seaford Campaign Meetings / Radio links

Dear family & friends in Christ,

1) We praise and thank God for every opportunity that he gives us to share His Word and to see the presence of the Holy Spirit transform people’s lives!

Pastor Daniel, along with his family had to attend a family wedding in Sri Lanka (his country of birth) last Saturday.  Due to RUAP Campaign commitments, he had to return to Australia after three days, whilst his family continues to enjoy a few extra days in Sri Lanka.

After arriving in Melbourne on Wednesday, he had to depart immediately to Canberra to speak at a Campaign meeting that evening.

On Thursday, he returned to Melbourne to speak at another Campaign meeting in Seaford, where the Candidates for Dunkley and Isaacs were introduced.

We would greatly appreciate your prayer covering and support during this time as Pastor Daniel continues to manage a demanding and hectic schedule.

Today, Friday the 12th of July, he has departed to Albany and Perth, WA to speak at several RUAP Campaign meetings tonight and throughout the weekend.

Both Campaign meetings in Canberra and Melbourne were very successful, with many attending the meetings and several of them hearing about Rise Up Australia Party for the first time.

Pastor Daniel shared the vision of Rise Up Australia Party to Keep Australia Australian for generations to come.  People were greatly impacted and challenged resulting in many of them responding by taking up membership with the Party and voluntarily putting their hands up to help assist in getting the Party more exposure.

In Canberra Daniel introduced our Lead Senate Candidate for ACT Mr Irwin Ross.

We as a team were greatly encouraged by the media coverage that we received, particularly on radio before and after the event.

Queen’s Speech: Immigration rules ‘to be tougher’ (UK)

BBC ^ | 7 May 2013

The government is expected to announce tougher rules on immigration when it outlines its programme for the next year on Wednesday.

The Queen’s Speech will include a parliamentary bill aimed at making it easier to deport foreign criminals and those who enter the UK illegally.

Other bills will cap social care costs in England and introduce a single state pension of £144 a week.

But a plan to monitor online and mobile communications is likely to be dropped.

The Queen’s Speech, part of the State Opening of Parliament, allows the government to set out its proposed bills for the next parliamentary session.

Imams to see Holocaust horror

Sapa-AFP | 20 May, 2013 

Muslim clerics from around the world will next week visit Auschwitz, the Nazi death camp in southern Poland, as part of a Holocaust awareness and anti-genocide programme .

“This is an opportunity for imams who are influential in their communities to look at the Holocaust first-hand and go to Auschwitz to see what that kind of hatred led to,” Poland’s chief rabbi, Michael Schudrich, said on Friday.

“It’s to make sure that civilisation doesn’t fail again.”

The visiting imams are from Bosnia, India, Indonesia, Jordan, Morocco, Nigeria, Palestine, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and the US.

28 Nations Who Prayed for America

Call to Prayer Ministries International – May 8, 2013

“We can only believe that God has indeed used ‘the extraordinary prayers of His people’ around the world to bless America!” -David Rowsome

(Unanderra, Australia)—A world-wide call to pray and fast for the USA went out from Australia and New Zealand on 25 April 2013 from the team at Australia’s National Day of Prayer and Fasting.

The Australian team felt led by God to bridge the US National Day of Repentance on April 30 and the US National Day of Prayer on May 2, with a worldwide call for 72 hours of prayer and fasting for the USA. This was humbly and gratefully received by American prayer leaders during a teleconference on April 24.

David Rowsome, one of the Australian organizers, said, “As we look back we stand amazed at what the Lord has done. The response from around the world to this prayer call surprised us all.

“Jonathan Edwards, the mighty American revivalist of the First Great Awakening and widely acknowledged as America’s greatest theologian, wrote in 1740, ‘When God has something very great to accomplish for His church, it is His will that there should precede it the extraordinary prayers of His people.’

“We believe this is what we have just witnessed in this world-wide call to prayer. Many media outlets and prayer networks, including several global ones, very quickly took up this call. Confirmed reports from 28 countries around the world have been received and we believe there could very well be many more. We will not know the full response this side of eternity. But God does!”

Christianity declining 50pc faster than thought – as one in 10 under-25s is a Muslim (UK)

The Telegraph (UK) ^ | John Bingham – 05/20/2013

A new analysis of the 2011 census shows that a decade of mass immigration helped mask the scale of decline in Christian affiliation among the British-born population – while driving a dramatic increase in Islam, particularly among the young.

It suggests that only a minority of people will describe themselves as Christians within the next decade, for first time.

Meanwhile almost one in 10 under 25s in Britain is now a Muslim.

The proportion of young people who describe themselves as even nominal Christians has dropped below half for the first time.

Media Censors London Beheader Using Koran to Justify Atrocity

May 22, 2013 By Daniel Greenfield 

You know that part in the video where the announcer is speaking over the Muslim killer. That’s the part where the killer is saying, “Many, many Ayah throughout the Koran that we must fight them as they fight us.” Instead the official media video cuts the Koran part out and picks up only when the Muslim killer says, “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.”

That doctrine is used today by Muslim countries to demand a literal eye for an eye justice.

In August 2000, the Saudi Arabian media reported that Abdel Moti Abdel Rahman Mohammad, a 37-year-old-Egyptian national was subjected to forcible surgical removal of his left eye at King Fahd Hospital in Medina. The operation was carried out as a judicial punishment of Qisas after he was found guilty of disfiguring Shahata Ajami Mahmoud, a 53-year-old Egyptian.

So it’s not some sort of misunderstanding. This is mainstream Islam. And it’s horrifying.

But there is a larger context. The Koran, as usual, is blasting the Jews for not keeping the law of Allah, which Mohammed believed, actually involved taking out an eye for an eye.  The Jews never practiced this. Mohammed however insisted on it and laid out proper doctrine.

“The reward of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive to create disorder in the land is only this that they be slain or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off on alternate sides, or they be expelled from the land.” (Quran 5:34)
