This is not "Sharia law". This is an ignorant person's idea of Sharia law. It is the sort of thing a person learns on a website called "www.billionbibles.org". There is no one thing that can be called "Sharia law." There are nearly as many ideas of what "Sharia law" is as there are Muslims. Wherever Sharia is observed, it is observed differently. Moreover, why would people who are fleeing radical Islamic groups want to implement extreme and corrupted versions of Sharia anyway? That is what they are fleeing.

What are those many ideas? How is it observerd differently? Why would a family in a patriarchal society want to change when the law favors the man? They are fleeing because they have nothing left due to the war and the economy is in shambles[/quote]

In most countries in which some form of "Sharia law" is observed, it is only in matters of personal status such as marriage and divorce. Moreover, in most cases, the laws are said to be "drawn from Sharia" or "based on Sharia" or something somewhat vague in that manner. They simply can't "implement Sharia" because there is no agreement about what actually constitutes "Sharia".

The US has historically been a patriarchal society. Why did we change? Syria and Iraq have been two of the most advanced Arab countries where women's rights are concerned. Unfortunately, one legacy of the US invasion of Iraq was a tremendous setback of those rights. Certainly most in those countries have a significantly different view of the role of women than ISIS which draws its ideas from the Wahhabis of the Gulf rather than the locally-observed traditions.

Do you deny that women are treated as second hand  citizens in traditional Muslim communities that follow viewpoints such as those above, and that boys are subject to being raised with warped views of the treatment of women like their own sisters or wive, which in itself constitutes abuse? Even in Pakistan a brother just honor killed his blogger sister, 'the Kim Kardashian of Pakistan' for bringing 'shame' on the family with her popular posts. Do you, host of this site, deny this widespread toxic mistreatment?[/quote]
