AIMPLB demands separate sharia law courts in India
AIMPLB demands separate sharia law courts in IndiaDespite the fact that Muslim Personal Law is recognized by the Indian state, Tayyeb, echoing the views of the 'ulama associated with the AIMPLB, insists on the need for Muslims to have their own parallel system of courts to judge their personal affairs. He sees this as an 'Islamic necessity'. For this he suggests the need for Muslims to elect, unanimously or by majority vote, their own leader (amir) at the all-India level, whom all Muslims must obey. Through this, he quotes a noted fellow Deobandi 'alim as declaring, 'All the problems that Muslims are today confronted with would be solved'. Posted by: john 2005-05-30 |
