The Alarming Rate Muslim Laws Are Integrated into the UK’s System


The last time I recalled Sharia Law was that the western countries condemned it for its extreme disregard for human rights in favour of tradition and practice. Sharia law prevented women from education and their rights and even left young MalalaYousafzai almost dead at the hands of Taliban assassins. 



However, if you knew the way the world works, you would have figured out by now that governments prefer a balance of human rights and economic progress in countries. The UK is no exception; it is integrating some changes in the UK legal system to accommodate Sharia laws.

Despite the UK having a small population of Muslims, the integration of Sharia law will allow the UK a richer network of business, corporations and individuals from the population to enrich its economic prospects. If your rights are respected, you are appeased and you would want to serve the government that granted you access to such privileges. This will make corporation heads look up and smell the coffee to help the UK back up to its feet.

It is not a bad thing but Sharia law will have implications not just to the Muslim community, but also to the entire population of the country. In every new law there are trade-offs in loyalties. Immigrants are annoyed and experts criticize the UK’s new immigration laws. The integration of Muslim laws, while it helps the economy, could have non-Muslim males refuse inheritance to their wives.
