Sharia Law 101 for non-Muslims — Dangers of Islam #2

If you live in Europe, you definitely heard about Sharia Law, at least once.

There are millions of Muslims who demand Sharia Law to be adopted in European countries like the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Finland, and many others.

Very few Europeans know what Sharia Law truly is, and what it implies.

So in this quick article we will talk about what Sharia is, and the implications of it.

The Introduction

Sharia Law is Islamic Law.

It is the religious legal system that governs the political, social and moral duties of faithful Muslims.

It is what is meant by “Allah’s Law” since they believe that everything Mohamed said to them is the perfect unaltered direct speech of Allah.

Sharia is based on the Sunnah — the way of life of Muhammad as recorded in the Hadith (traditions).

It represents a set of rules derived from the Quran and historic narration.

Muslims who follow the Sunnah are called Sunni, and they represent 90% of all Muslims in the world.

So nobody can argue that only a small sect of Islamic extremists demand Sharia Law, when 90% of all Muslims are Sunni.

Is Sharia Law Optional?

No! Sharia Law is not optional.

In Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:48 we can read:

“So judge between them by what Allah has revealed, and do not follow their desires over the truth that has come to you. To each of you We have ordained a code of law and a way of life.”

Muslims strongly believed that they are ordained to follow the Sharia Law and the Sunnah, to emulate Mohammed’s way of life.

Which is quite a problem when we think about all the atrocities Mohammed did:

  1. Married a 6-year-old and raped her when she was only 9
  2. Ordered assassinations and wars
  3. Told his followers to kills non-Muslims wherever they find them
  4. Married his adapted son’s wife
  5. Invaded countries and told his followers they can rape women during war because Allah said so
  6. Told his followers to drink camel piss as a remedy to anything
  7. Demanded genocide on Jews and even said that the end of the world won’t come until all the Jews are killed.

I can continue with the list, but that’s a topic for another time.

Some people might say: “Not all Muslims believe they must follow Sharia Law, there’s only a small population that does that…”

Let’s check with the book they name “supreme authority” – the Quran.

In Surah Al-Baqarah 2:85 we ran read:

“Do you believe in some of the Scripture and reject the rest? Is there any reward for those who do so among you other than disgrace in this worldly life and being subjected to the harshest punishment on the Day of Judgment? For Allah is never unaware of what you do.”

Muslims must respect the whole Quran, and are not allowed to cherry-pick certain verses that they want to follow, and reject others out of convenience.

For them, it is mandatory to keep the entire Quran, or face “the harshest punishment on the Day of Judgment”.

To make matters worse, they are indoctrinated to believe that it is not fitting for a believer to choose for themselves any matter already decided by Allah.

We can find this in Surah Al-Ahzab 33:36

“It is not for a believing man or woman—when Allah and His Messenger decree a matter—to have any other choice in that matter. Indeed, whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has clearly gone ˹far˺ astray.”

Please notice that Mohamed, it is always mentioned as final authority.

Muslims believe that Allah said to them: “Whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger (Mohamed) has clearly gone FAR astray.”

In Islam, when you are gone far astray, it is grave sin, and you can as well be killed.

Quick recap:

  1. 90% of all Muslims obey Sharia Law
  2. They have no choice – otherwise their family can kill them or they believe they will go to hell
  3. Muslims must obey everything in Sharia, and follow all the commandments Mohammed gave them without criticizing anything

Can Governments Limit Sharia Law?

A government that limits Allah’s Law in any way is an enemy of Allah and must be fought.

Any country that limits Sharia Law, is considered Kuffar, (enemy of Islam) and the land of that country is considered Dar Al Harb. (Land of War / House of War)

So all the Jihad rules, apply in these set countries.

One of them is that it’s permissible to kidnap and rap women.

If you want to learn more about how Muslims apply this in the UK you can read this article:


The establishment of Sharia is a fundamental objective of every Islamic terror group.

Once an Islamic state is in place, the Quran (9:29) and Sharia (o9.8) make it mandatory for Muslims to fight those Jews and Christians who will not convert or accept inferior status. (inferior status means paying Jizya, a protection tax)

Here are the exact quotes from Quran Surah At-Tawbah 9:29:

“Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allah, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.”

In the United Kingdom, Muslims started demanding Sharia Law nationwide, in some cities they even built their own Sharia Tribunals.

Everything started with them just “wating their own place” masking the Sharia Tribunals with the cloak of religion and making it look like it’s for personal rules.

This is to make it appear as if anybody who’s opposing Sharia Law is a religious bigot whose real problem is intolerance for a different set of beliefs about God and worship.

In fact, Sharia is explicitly opposed to religious freedom, freedom of conscience and the free exchange of ideas. It is violent, openly bigoted toward non-Muslims, discriminatory, and unflinchingly sexist. Large sections deal with the practice of slavery. None of this changes by affixing a “phobia” label or otherwise insulting detractors.

Let’s see what Sharia Law says about some topics:

Freedom of Conscience and the Free Exchange of Ideas

(o8.1) – When a person who has reached puberty and is sane voluntarily apostatizes from Islam, he deserves to be killed.

(o8.4) – There is no indemnity for killing an apostate (since it is killing someone who deserves to die).

Acts that define “leaving Islam” and being subject to execution are listed in o8.7. They include:
    -2- to intend to commit unbelief, even if in the future

    -3- to deny the existence of Allah… or any of his attributes

    -6- to be sarcastic about Allah’s name, his command, his interdiction… or his threat

    -7- to deny any verse of the Quran

    -8- to mockingly say, “I don’t know what faith is”

    -17- to believe that things in themselves or by their own nature have any causal influence independent of the will of Allah

Holy War (Jihad)

(o9.0) – Jihad means to war against non-Muslims, and is etymologically derived from the word mujahada signifying warfare to establish the religion…

The scriptural basis for jihad… is such Koranic verses as:

    -1- “Fighting is prescribed for you” (Koran 2: 216);
    -2- “Slay them wherever you find them” (Koran 4: 89);
    -3- “Fight the idolators utterly” (Koran 9: 36);

And such hadiths as the one related by Bukhari and Muslim that the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said:

“I have been commanded to fight people until they testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and perform the prayer, and pay zakat. If they say it, they have saved their blood and possessions from me, except for the rights of Islam over them. And their final reckoning is with Allah”;

(o9.1) – Jihad [against non-Muslims in their own countries ] is a communal obligation… “He who provides the equipment for a soldier in Jihad has himself performed Jihad

(o9.7) – The caliph makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians until they become Muslim or pay the non-Muslim poll tax in accordance with the word of Allah Most High:

“Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and who forbid not what Allah and His messenger have forbidden-who do not practice the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book-until they pay the poll tax out of hand and are humbled” (Quran 9.29))

(o9.9) – The caliph fights all other people until they become Muslim

Homosexuality

(p17.3) – The Prophet (Allah Bless him and give him peace) said: “Kill the one who sodomizes and the one who lets it be done to him.”

Women

m3.4 – 3.7 say that a woman may not “conduct her own marriage”, meaning that she is not free to marry by choice. A male guardian is required to validate the marriage agreement.

m3.8 says that a woman is not free to choose her guardian. It is assigned by family relation. Once she is married, she becomes the charge of her husband’s guardianship.

A Muslim woman may not marry a non-Muslim man (Quran 2:221). An untranslated portion of the Sharia even forbids an Arab woman from marrying a non-Arab man (source).

(m13.4) – A woman has no right to custody of her children from a previous marriage when she remarries.

(m5.1) – It is obligatory for a woman to let her husband have sex with her immediately when he asks her… and she can physically endure it.

(m10.11-2) – It is not lawful for a wife to leave the house except by the permission of her husband.

(m10.11) – When a husband notices signs of rebelliousness in his wife, he warns her in words. If she commits rebelliousness, he keeps from sleeping with her without words, and may hit her, but not in a way that injures her, meaning he may not break bones, wound her, or cause blood to flow.

(o4.9) – The indemnity for the death or injury of a woman is one-half the indemnity paid for a man.

(L10.3) – Divide the universal share so the male receives the portion of two females (Rule of inheritance based on the Quran 4:11)

(m2.3) – It is unlawful for women to leave the house with faces unveiled

Non-Muslims (Bigotry toward those outside the Islamic faith)

(o4.9) – The indemnity paid for a Jew or Christian is one-third of the indemnity paid for a Muslim. The indemnity paid of a Zoroastrian is one-fifteenth of that a Muslim.

(h8.24) – It is not permissible to give zakat to a non-Muslim.

(e2.3) – It is offensive to use the vessels [dishes] of non-Muslims or wear their clothes.

e8.3 says that a non-Muslim may not touch the Quran.

f21.2 says that non-Muslims are not allowed to ‘mix’ with Muslims at certain events.

g1.2 says that it is permissible for a Muslim to visit a non-Muslim who is ill, but not recommended. (Same with visiting the grave of a non-Muslim relative – g5.8)

(L5.2) – a non-Muslim may not inherit from a Muslim. (or vice versa)

o1.2 states that there is no penalty for a Muslim who kills a non-Muslim

o11.0-11 says that non-Muslim subjects of an Islamic state may live free from harm if they:

    – pay a special ‘poll’ tax (the jizya)

    – comply with certain Islamic rules, specifically the penalty for adultery (stoning) and theft (amputation)

    – distinguish themselves from Muslims by dressing differently

    – keep to the side of the side of the street when Muslims pass

    – accept a lesser form of greeting

    – agree not to build new churches or ring church bells

    – do not build houses higher than those of Muslims


The agreement is broken if the non-Muslim breaks the rules, fails to pay the poll tax, ” leads a Muslim away from Islam”, “mentions something impermissible” about Islam, or marries or has sex with a Muslim woman. In this happens, then the non-Muslim is treated as a prisoner and may be lynched – provided they do not first ‘convert’ to Islam before the sentence is rendered (o11.11; o9.14).

(o22.12) – The judge treats two litigants impartially, seating both in places of equal honor, attending to each, and so forth, unless one is a non-Muslim, in which case he gives the Muslim a better seat

In a stunning 4-minute video that received much attention in 2025 after being re-tweeted by Elon Musk, British Islamic Scholar, Abu Waleed, explains that the purpose of forcing non-Muslims to live under humiliating laws is to degrade them to accept Islam.

Sex and Honor Killing

(o1.2) – The following are not subject to retaliation: … -4- a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring or offspring’s offspring

o12.2 – The penalty for adultery is stoning. The penalty for unmarried sex (fornication) is 100 lashes.

Slavery

A large section of the Sharia is devoted to codifying the practice of slavery (k32.0). The Reliance of the Traveller omits these rules from the English language translation, perhaps to obscure the comfortable relationship between Islam and slavery. However, parts from other sections address both the capture of slaves and the sanctioning of forced conversion under obvious duress.

(o9.13) – When a child or a woman is taken captive, they become slaves by the fact of capture, and the woman’s previous marriage is immediately annulled.

(o9.14) – When an adult male is taken captive, the caliph considers the interests (O: of Islam and the Muslims) and decides between the prisoner’s death, slavery, release without paying anything, or ransoming himself in exchange for money or for a Muslim captive held by the enemy. If the prisoner becomes a Muslim (O: before the caliph chooses) then he may not be killed, and one of the other three alternatives is chosen.

(o9.12) Whoever enters Islam before being captured may not be killed or his property confiscated, or his young children taken captive.

o4.9 is one of several rules that establish slaves as property, to be traded as a form of restitution.

o20.2 makes it clear that a slave freed as a method of expiation must be a “sound Muslim.”

Theft

(o14.1) – A person’s right hand is amputated, whether he is a Muslim, non-Muslim subject of the Islamic state

Permissible Lying (Taqiyya)

(r8.2) – The Prophet said, “He who settles disagreements between people to bring about good or says something commendable is not a liar.”

Kulthum added, “I did not hear him permit untruth in anything people say, except for three things: war, settling disagreements and a man talking with his wife or she with him (in smoothing over differences)”

This is an explicit statement that lying is sometimes permissible for a given interest…

Speaking is a means to achieve objectives. If a praiseworthy aim is attainable through both telling the truth and lying, it is unlawful to accomplish through lying because there is no need for it. When it is possible to achieve such an aim by lying but not by telling the truth, it is permissible to lie if attaining the goal is permissible and obligatory to lie if the goal is obligatory…

Whether the purpose is war, settling a disagreement, or gaining the sympathy of a victim legally entitled to retaliate against one so that he will forbear to do so; it is not unlawful to; lie when any of these aims can only be attained through lying. But is religiously more precautionary in all such cases to employ words that give misleading impression, meaning to intend by one’s words something that is literally true, in respect to which one is not lying while the outward purport of the words deceives the hearer…

One should compare the bad consequences entailed by lying to those entailed by telling the truth, and if the consequences of telling the truth are more damaging, on is entitled to lie…

Art and Music

r40.1 says that musical instruments are condemned.

(r40.3) – One should know that singing or listening to singing is offensive (with the exception of songs that encourage piety).

(p44.1) – Every maker of pictures will go to the fire, where a being will be set upon him for each picture he made, to torment him in hell

(w50.2) – Pictures imitate the creative act of Allah (when they are of animate beings).

(o17.9) – It is unlawful to decorate walls with pictures (generally interpreted as pictures of animate beings).
