Doesn’t matter what I personally think about the issue.
Mutual respect at this case is biased both sides.
1.Muslims in UK must obey to the Brittish Law.
2.Brittish legislation must consider the appliance of some aspects of Islamic Law(Civil and Family Law especially) as an alternative for those from the 2.5m Muslim community ,provided they should wish to be judged under Sharia Law.
The head of the Anglican Church made an appeal for the issue a few months ago.
Daily mail is a right wing newspaper with a brilliant pronazi past.

Speaking for Greece the way to tolerance looks even longer.http://www.ethnos.gr/article.asp?catid=11424&subid=2&tag=8777&pubid=4356884

Br Bilal very interesting article. Thanks for sharing. What are your thoughts on this matter of sharia in UK? Are the women unfairly treated? Is this what happens? Do we believe what we read or we take it with a pinch of salt? Jazak Allah Kheir

Asalamu Aleycum,

The way to mutual respect is long
As in science, trying to solve a problem we may need solutions for appearing problems at the inbetween.
As,
1.Tolerance to the otherness of Islam.
2.Acceptance of the presence of your Muslim neighbour.
3.Neutral attitude,eradication of discriminations and equal opportunities,
before mutual respect on an individual basis first and then to a religious and social level.

It looks so remote in the distant future..

Even in UK where tolerance and acceptance are beyond doubt,mutual respect is under question.
