Global Community stands against Shariah Muslim law
ISIS is an ideology now growing everywhere in the world. From their perspective,
killing other people is a logical and religious solution. The Islamist group is
implementing Sharia Law, rooted in eighth century Islam, to establish a
society that mirrors the region's ancient past. This group is known for killing dozens
of people at a time and carrying out public executions, crucifixions and other acts.
These modern day Islamist extremists use modern tools like social media to promote
reactionary politics and religious fundamentalism. These Islamists are a real threat
to the world and especially to women. The following article explains the reality of
Shariah Muslim law.

Joys of Muslim Women
By Nonie Darwish
(written by a woman born in Egypt as a Muslim)
In the Muslim faith a Muslim man can marry a child as young as 1 year old and have
sexual intimacy with this child. Consummating the marriage by 9.
The dowry is given to the family in exchange for the woman (who becomes his slave)
and for the purchase of the private parts of the woman, to use her as a toy. Even
though a woman is abused she cannot obtain a divorce. To prove rape, the woman
must have (4) male witnesses. Often after a woman has been raped, she is returned
to her family and the family must return the dowry. The family has the right to
execute her (an honor killing) to restore the honor of the family. Husbands can beat
their wives 'at will' and he does not have to say why he has beaten her. The husband
is permitted to have (4 wives) and a temporary wife for an hour (prostitute) at his
discretion. The Shariah Muslim law controls the private as well as the public life of
the woman.
In the Western World (Canada, Australia, United States and Britain) Muslim men are
starting to demand Shariah Law so the wife cannot obtain a divorce and he can have full and complete control of her.
It is amazing and alarming how many of our sisters and daughters attending
American, Canadian, Universities and British Universities are now marrying Muslim
men and submitting themselves and their children unsuspectingly to the Shariah law.
By passing this on, enlightened Canadian, Australians, American and British women
may avoid becoming a slave under Shariah Law.
Author and lecturer Nonie Darwish says the goal of radical Islamists is to impose
Shariah law on the world, ripping Western law and liberty in two.
She recently authored the book, Cruel and Usual Punishment: The Terrifying Global
Implications of Islamic Law. Darwish was born in Cairo and spent her childhood in
Egypt and Gaza before immigrating to America in 1978, when she was eight years
old. Her father died while leading covert attacks on Israel. He was a high-ranking
Egyptian military officer stationed with his family in Gaza. When he died, he was
considered a "shahid," a martyr for jihad. His posthumous status earned Nonie and
her family an elevated position in Muslim society.
But Darwish developed a skeptical eye at an early age. She questioned her own
Muslim culture and upbringing. She converted to Christianity after hearing a
Christian preacher on television. In her latest book, Darwish warns about creeping
shariah law - what it is, what it means, and how it is manifested in Islamic countries.
For the West, she says radical Islamists are working to impose Sharia on the world. If
that happens, Western civilization will be destroyed. Westerners generally assume all
religions encourage a respect for the dignity of each individual.. Islamic law (Sharia)
teaches that non-Muslims should be subjugated or killed in this world. Peace and
prosperity for one's children is not as important as assuring that Islamic law rules
everywhere in the Middle East and eventually in the world.
While Westerners tend to think that all religions encourage some form of the golden
rule, Shariah teaches two systems of ethics - one for Muslims and another for
non-Muslims. Building on tribal practices of the seventh century, Shariah encourages
the side of humanity that wants to take from and subjugate others.
While Westerners tend to think in terms of religious people developing a personal
understanding of and relationship with God, Shariah advocates executing people who
ask difficult questions that could be interpreted as criticism
It's hard to imagine that in this day and age, Islamic scholars agree that those who
criticize Islam or choose to stop being Muslim should be executed. Sadly, while talk of
an Islamic reformation is common and even assumed by many in the West, such
murmurings in the Middle East are silenced through intimidation.
While Westerners are accustomed to an increase in religious tolerance over time,
Darwish explains how petro dollars are being used to grow an extremely intolerant
form of political Islam in her native Egypt and elsewhere. (In twenty years there will be
enough Muslim voters in Canada, Australia, the U.S. and Britain to elect the heads of
Government by themselves! Rest assured they will do so... You can look at how they
have taken over several towns in the USA . Dearborn Mich. Is one and there are
others....) (Britain has several cities now totally controlled by Muslims)
I think everyone in Canada, Australia, the U.S. And Great Britain should be required to
read this, but with the ACLU, there is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each
of us sends it on!
It is too bad that so many are disillusioned with life and Christianity to accept Muslims
as peaceful.. Some may be but they have an army that is willing to shed blood in the
name of Islam.. The peaceful support the warriors with their finances and own kind of
patriotism to their religion. While Canada, Australia, the U.S.A. and Britain are getting
rid of Christianity from all public sites and erasing God from the lives of children the
Muslims are planning a great jihad on North America, Australia and Britain ........
Life on Earth is being threatened with extinction.
Global life-support systems are no longer capable of supporting all life species. The effects that human activities have had on our planet have become a major concern.
Our world is facing crises of fresh water, clean air, lack of food, deforestation, global ocean health, and land lost by climate change, wars and development. We need leadership in the absolute protection of all our natural resources, in peril because of what we do and what that does to our planet.
While carbon emissions from fossil fuels pollute the air, land and our global ocean, we are facing the global warming crisis, and climate change.
But all these crises are due to our ways of doing business and trade, and of consuming resources. And that is threatening the security of all life on our planet.
