The controversial British sheikh Haitham Al-Haddad wants Sharia Court in The Netherlands.(BNFTN).The controversial British sheikh Haitham Al-Haddad has said that a sharia court should be established in The Netherlands. He mentioned that about 20 Muslim women per year come to London for a religious divorce.A study last week by the thinktank Civitas claimed that there could be as many as 85 sharia courts in Britain.(2009). These have only entered into a religious marriage and not in a civil one.The Islamic Sharia Council is listed as a charity but people seeking a divorce, or talaq, must fill in a form and pay a fee. For a man it is £100; for women, it is £250 because the imams say it takes more work to process a woman's application as her word has to be corroborated. Al-Haddad regularly visits The Netherlands. He is known to have said inter alia that it is sometimes necessary to stone women.Hmmmmm.......Equality of Gender?"as her word has to be corroborated"More here (Dutch) and More here on 'Sharia Divorce'.
