Examples of sharia law in a Sentence

1. Richard Gugolka:

   When you read about the people who want sharia law in Copenhagen and disallow voting, what kind of 'thank you' is that? Shouldn't they just be happy they're allowed to be here, i’m not allowed to say it, but we need to decide what kind of refugees we want to take in.

2. Benjamin Weinthal:

   The number of Christians in Iran is estimated at between 200,000 and 500,000, out of an overall population of nearly 78 million. Although the Islamic Republic’s constitution guarantees on paper that Christianity, Judaism, and Zoroastrianism are protected religions, the application of Sharia Law — or Islamic Law — relegates the members of the minority religions to second class citizens. The historical term for a subjugated non-Muslim religious minority member living in an Islamic society is dhimmi. In response to multiple FoxNews.com media queries about the convicted Iranian Christians, Hamid Babaei, head of the press office in the Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations in New York, declined to comment. Saba Farzan said the latest crackdown is further affirmation that the current talks between the U.S. and Iran on lifting economic sanctions in exchange for guarantees Iran won't pursue nuclear weapons can not proceed in good faith. They never made sense and never will, Saba Farzan said. The West can't discuss arms control with a leadership that oppresses religious minorities and human rights activists.

4. Marco Rubio:

   I personally know, first of all, that there are Americans that are Muslims and that are also very patriotic and they love the United States of America and they don't want to see any Sharia law and they don't want to see anything like that happen in this country, i don't believe anyone should be disqualified from the presidency because of their denomination or because of their faith. I believe in that strongly.

5. Tessa Tranchant:

   If they had sanctuary, the Arabs could do their Sharia Law, south of Chicago there was 700-800 murders and they could be anonymous and we wouldn’t know whether they’re in the city or not. It doesn’t make sense.
