Dumbfuck... He's talking about in the U.S.. There is no Sharia law in the U.S.. And to his point, the 14th Amendment leaves no room for Sharia law.
You should have read the link first and the interview in its entirety. He clearly states that in Muslim countries around the world they live under a mismash of British, Portuguese and French laws.
Oh and he's a recognized scholar and promoter of Sharia. He adores Sharia.
Here ya go sparky!
"These are laws of various Muslim countries which are hodgepodge of British laws, French laws, Portuguese laws. In there, there is tremendous discrimination of genders which disqualifies them under the constitution of the United States, cannot be implemented, cannot be brought.
How can I be a person that has read this, I preach that, that I do not stand for any Sharia Law because there is no such thing"..
Khizr Khan: 'There Is No Such Thing' as Sharia Law - Breitbart
I saw his interview and heard his own words. Unlike you, I don't need Breitbart to interpret them for me. He was talking about in the U.S. and the Constitution. There is no Sharia law here.
I know there is no sharia in the US. But he is saying flat out there is no sharia. I'm reading the transcript. That has jack shit to do with Breitbart or how to interpret his very specific words.
"There is no such thing. " Pretty cut and dry. Most offensive is his bullshit that he doesn't stand for any Sharia. Oh kiss my ass. He's a renowned scholar on Sharia and believes that sharia law supercedes the Constitution or any other man made laws like many Muslims.
Sharia is divine.
Reading his quote in context...
"Sharia law as we have titled it, there is no such thing as Sharia law. These are laws of various Muslim countries, which are hodgepodge of Finnish laws, French laws, Portuguese laws. In there, there is tremendous discrimination of genders which disqualifies them under the constitution of United States, cannot be implemented, cannot be brought. How can I be a person that has read this, I preach that, that I do not stand for any sharia law because there is no such thing."
He doesn't believe in Sharia law as it's the antithesis of the Constitution.
Well time for a bit of biographical information on Khan. Kahn has embraced Sharia for decades. He is a recognized scholar on Sharia. One his heros was a hardliner in Pakistan who assisted in turning Pakistan a Sharia compliant country. His name was Brohi.
We're talking serious hard liners.
"Khizr M. Khan has published papers supporting the supremacy of Islamic law over “man-made” Western law — including the very Constitution he championed in his Democratic National Convention speech attacking GOP presidential nod Donald Trump.
In 1983, for example,
Khan wrote a glowing review of a book compiled from a seminar held in Kuwait called
“Human Rights In Islam” in which he singles out for praise the keynote address of fellow Pakistani Allah K. Brohi, a pro-jihad Islamic jurist who was one of the closest advisers to late Pakistani dictator Gen. Zia ul-Haq, the father of the Taliban movement.
Khan speaks admiringly of Brohi’s interpretation of human rights, even though it included the right to kill and mutilate those who violate Islamic laws and even the right of men to “beat” wives who act “unseemly.”
Brohi has quite a few “accomplishments” for Khan to admire:
[Brohi] restored Sharia punishments, such as amputations for theft and demands that rape victims produce four male witnesses or face adultery charges.
He also made insulting the Muslim prophet Muhammad a crime punishable by death. To speed the Islamization of Pakistan, he and Zia issued a law that required judges to consult mullahs on every judicial decision for Sharia compliance."
