They do give a weird, squishy answer on it, though
El-Sayed’s Campaign Confirms He Still Follows Sharia Law in Personal Life
Abdulrahman El-Sayed’s campaign confirmed the Michigan Democrat Senate nominee still complies with Sharia law in his personal life, after resurfaced 2009 comments in which he described following it as a lifelong “obligation.”
El-Sayed made the remarks to the New York Times in 2009, when the Times identified him as a 24-year-old medical student and Rhodes scholar who had taken out a “Sharia-compliant” mortgage to buy a $123,000 condominium in Ann Arbor. The Washington Free Beacon first reported on the unearthed interview.
Campaign spokeswoman Roxie Richner confirmed to the Free Beacon that El-Sayed continues to live by his faith.
“Abdul believes in the separation of church and state,” Richner said. “While he personally lives by the rules of his faith, as many Americans of various faiths do, Abdul opposes any effort by any religious community to write their faith laws into the laws of our country.”
Oh, OK. They trot out the Dem talking point about separation of church and state, then say he practices it in his personal life but not public? And doesn’t want it in our laws?
(Religion Of Peace) Sharia 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 “God’s Law.”
Sharia is not optional; it is prescribed for believers (5:48). Although Muslims as individuals often decide which parts to follow or ignore, the Quran (33:36) says that it is not fitting for a believer to choose for themselves (i.e., disregard) any matter already decided by Allah.
Likewise, a government that limits God’s Law in any way is an enemy of Allah and must be fought. 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.
This reality is left out by proponents of Sharia in the West, who hide behind the cloak of religion and expose only the more benign personal rules (such as those dealing with prayer and hygiene). This is to make it appear as if detractors are religious bigots whose real problem is intolerance for a different set of beliefs about God and worship.
The Islamists have been doing this for decades as they invade non-Islamic nations, particularly “Western” ones. They hide their true beliefs and objectives till they do not have to. Think how quickly Canada changed to protect Muslims from “Islamophobia”, ie, even mild criticism. How many were sued or prosecuted for this? Think about England looking away as all those children were groomed almost 20 years ago? The no-go zones in Sweden?
If he practices sharia, then he cannot swear to uphold the Constitution. The idea here for the Islamists like El-Sayed is to trick the Useful Idiots in the Democrat party to elect them so they can quietly push their Islamist beliefs behind the scene. No one actually thinks he’s into all the stuff the DSA pushes, right? It’s just useful. He loves the Democrat notion of getting rid of the 2nd Amendment (and patronizing them by saying he wants to replace it with a right to healthcare) because it would mean only the government would have guns, and citizens would not be able to defend themselves.
BTW, that photo is from a protest in 2012 by the Islamists. In Sydney, Australia. The Islamists felt emboldened enough to have these kinds of signs. Try that the other way in Australia. They’ll put you in jail.
Does not terrify me!
Does not terrify NYC where most recent poll from Siena (,they have “A”rating!) gave Mamdani
Approval 69%
Disapproval 29%
If GOP expects to win elections they got to do something else rather than scary words like sharia law
Really, Johnny? We have this thing called US law in this country.
And you think it is seriously in danger?
Only 3% of Americans are Muslims. Sharia law is like Catholic rules Mass every Sunday fish on Friday. In Catholic countries civil law is practiced in most cases but you do not go to jail. I have lived in countries with sharia law. I was not prosecuted got not following it. It applies to Muslims. You should travel more. Get out of your bubble. And I do not mean staying in a Hilton hotel.
I suppose it means what parts of shari’a law he follows personally. If he caught a thief in his home, would he cut off his hand?
That’s actually one part of shari’a law I could support!
If he dishanded a thief in his home, would he get to keep the hand? Return it to it’s owner? If the thief rushes to a hospital (we have those in the USA) and reattached his hand, would that be the same as dropping the charges or El Seyed be entitled to cut the hand off a second time? Does the severed hand get disposed of as medical waste? So many questions with sharia law. Good thing we have statute law in this country. Much less confusing when laws were made in the same century as the current calendar.
Alas! An internet search not only did not reveal what happens to the severed hand, but does reveal that such punishments are relatively rare. Perhaps that’s an indication that theft itself is rare, but ‘lesser’ punishments can be inflicted.
I’m sure that if we tried it here, such a punishment would be rejected as a “cruel and unusual punishment,” but I can see the advantages: a very great likelihood that the thief would not offend again, and it would be a visible indication to all that the thief is a thief, and should be shunned. A few unhanded thieves wandering around Strawberry Mansion might signal to the gang-bangers and wannabes that going down that path is a bad, bad idea.
Such amputations under Saudi law are done by surgeons in hospitals; I would oppose that. Rather, such punishments should be public, with a sharp sword on a tree stump, with a cauldron of hot tar nearby, into which the surviving wrist could be dunked to seal off and cauterize the wound, as was done in ancient times.
In Game of Thrones, when Jaime Lannister’s had was chopped off, he was made to wear it on a rope around his neck.
“Abdul (Dr El-Sayed) believes in the separation of church and state,” Richner said. “While he personally lives by the rules of his faith, as many Americans of various faiths do, Abdul opposes any effort by any religious community to write their faith laws into the laws of our country.”
Mr Dana, who claims to be a devout Catholic, supports the be-handing of thieves.
Would Mr Dana, who claims to be a devout Catholic, support his own children having their hands cut off if they were caught stealing?
Should rapists be castrated?
Mr Wlwood P Dowd of St Louis County wrote:
As a devout Catholic, I have taught my daughters not to steal. You have previously excoriated Christians for using the threat of Hell to teach children to live the right way, yet even you cannot complain that we do teach children to live the right way.
Should rapists be castrated? One state, Louisiana has passed a law to that effect, though I doubt it would survive a court test. I, however, would have no problem with that.
Yup, I know: you’ll claim next that such should happen to President Trump, but Mr Trump has never been either criminally charged with or convicted of rape, no matter how many times you claim he’s a rapist and pedophile. If there had been any evidence that he was those things, the Department of Justice during the Biden Administration would have released that evidence and brought him to trial.
Conservative white christians fear/hate Muslims, non-whites (Blacks, Hispanics), LGBTQ etc so they want them gone. Or at least disenfranchised. All their deflections are to hide that simple fact. They want all their privileges restored!!
“America was built by white christian men, so by right they should continue exclusive rule!”
