Sharia Law

Muslim immigrants have arrived to the United States of America from every nuke and corner of the sphere. The population is diverse in their own ways but each one of them bears similar reasons: Some desire to escape an old way of life, others to find a new one. Some wanted to escape violence, others the fetters of penury, or simple lack of opportunity. They have arrived with fervent hope, and often nothing more. The initial response received by them was largely varied. These new Americans found a vast new land hungry for their labor. But some, unfamiliar with these newcomers’ customs and religions, treated the new Americans as outsiders and believed they could never be real Americans. And with the events like the Gulf War and the World Trade Center bombing outpoured anti-Islamic sentiments in the 1990s. These sentiments intensified with the heinous and abominable attacks of September 11th. Muslims were being labeled as “extremists”, “jihadists”, “fanatics”, “fundamentalists” etc. They were being feared, discriminated and even harassed.

After the events that took place in 2001, the idea that Western Countries declared “war on terror” was proposed and a new awareness of Islam emerged.

of governance, to all muslim countries and eventually the whole world. This is false in the hearts

The paper notes that in the pre-9/11 America, American Muslims enjoyed the same rights that other Americans did, engaging themselves in such activities as institution-building, public work, and integration. The process of integration, however, was severely disrupted by 9/11 because many Americans unfortunately began to hold all Muslims accountable for the terrorist attack, distrusting them, discriminating against them, and subjecting them to various forms of hatred. The media played a crucial role in this endeavor, as commentators began to draw a link between Islam and extremist political beliefs.

Canadian Multiculturalism Canada is a country with an unique cultural diversity. Unlike many other societies, Canada thrives on diversity, acceptance and respect values. Multiculturalism encourages new comers and people from different backgrounds to identify themselves as a part of the Canadian society. Therefore, giving everyone a voice and means to express their opinions.

After over half a decade since the 9/11 terror attacks on American soil, the consequences of the devastating incident have continued to spread out on Muslims in the United States who have been subjected to harsh experiences because of association. These people have not only been held accountable for their actions but also for the actions of people with false banners in their name since the attacks. Before the 9/11 attacks, Muslims in America were mainly involved in developing institutions and had equal rights with other American citizens. As everyone was treated fairly by the law, Muslims were no exception making them to be optimistic and elated. The attacks had a major impact on the American Muslim community that was seemingly experiencing a successful integration into the country's political process. They not only lost their developmental impetus but also faced prejudice and hostility like never before as the media began to portray the strong link between Islam and extremist political violence.

Al-Qaeda has shaped the U.S. and its Anti-Western ideology that has corrupted the world. This terrorist organization was constructed by Osama bin Laden. Bin Laden’s main goal was to drive the United States armed forces out of Saudi Arabia and Somalia through the technique of violence. Members of Al-Qaeda issued fatwas indicating that the attacks were both proper and necessary. Al-Qaeda had a command and control structure which included a consultation council, allowing many heartbreaking attacks to form. The al-Qaeda organization used horrendously violent acts to induce terror during catastrophes, causing social climate of distrust and fear to emerge the American citizens.

In this paper, I will be discussing the recent political issue about the ban imposed on refugees from the Muslim-dominant nations into the United States. The current president of the United States, Donald Trump, on the 27th of January 2017 issued an executive order banning immigrants from seven countries into the United States. The issue that informed the ban was the security threat that the immigrants posed to the United States because most terrorist groups have an Islamic background. While this move by the president might have been backed with the best of intentions from the top of the government, it stirred up a lot of commotion from the citizens and humanitarian organizations questioning the morality and the justification of the order.

This has made other Western states wonder about their own Muslim problem and whether or not Muslim have now become a source of public anxiety. In Europe, where states have traditionally seen themselves as nation-states based on homogeneous national culture are now dealing with the mass insurgent of Muslim refugees from the middle east and they need a way to deal with this problem (Parekh, p.7). Citied earlier in the essay, France passed a veil law that prohibited the use of the hijabs or any kind veil; this was a sort of assimilation by the French government. In Britain they opted for integration, in the Netherlands they are using multiculturalism as a way to break the barrels between the Muslims in their society, and finally other nations have tried one or two of the other models mentioned in order to deal with their Muslim problem (Parekh,p.7). Even if these states begin to integrate, assimilate, and even use any other form of system. It will take time and slow

1) Identify specific financial statements auditing concepts and procedures that could be applied in determining whether an Islamic bank has been Shari’a compliant during a given financial reporting period?

“Muslims, Bin Laden argues, must reverse a series of humiliations that they’ve endured since the Ottoman Empire, the last Muslim great power, was dismantled after World War I. Al-Qaeda’s 1998 declaration of a jihad, or holy war, against ‘Jews and Crusaders’ urges Muslims to attack ‘the Americans and their allies, civilian and military,’ supposedly as a response to U.S. policies that al-Qaeda feels oppress Muslims: the stationing of troops in Saudi Arabia; the backing of U.N. sanctions against Iraq; support for repressive Arab regimes; support for Israel; alleged complicity in Russian attacks on Muslims in Chechnya; and interventions in Bosnia, Somalia, and other Muslim regions that bin Laden sees as attempts to spread America’s empire. These Western policies, according to al-Qaeda, add up to a ‘clear

People tend to be extremely attentive when religion is involved. In ‘We are all Guilty”, the author, Azmi Ashour, illustrates how the ethics of Islam are being neglected and distorted. Although Azmi Ashour succeeded in triggering the audience’s sympathy by stressing on the fact that Islam is being used to justify terror and the young are brainwashed, he failed in specifying his audience, thus the article lacked quality of information.

Ever since September 11, 2001 Americans along with the majority of the world’s population have been skeptical of Muslims. It’s a sad reality but it’s hard for people to think of a Muslim without linking them directly to terrorism. But these assumptions aren’t totally out of the blue—the Muslim’s religion, Islam, teaches a low tolerance for other religions and the Islamic government has no separation of church and state, so it’s only normal to assume that their government shall have a low tolerance as well—some however, immediately translate this into terrorism. Through the Islamic government and religion, relations with foreign countries, and separation amongst themselves it can be concluded that Islamic Fundamentalism is clearly a threat

Sharia law is an ancient compilation of religious rules that most Muslim nations seek reference in governing their people. Also defined as Islamic law, the essence of sharia laws emanated from the life of Prophet Mohammed known as the hadiths as well as the Quran teachings. The hadiths entail the vocal expressions of prophet Muhammad on divine life and his condemnation of immoral behavior that undermine the acceptable way of life. The teachings are accepted by the Muslim community who affirm that Muhammad’s teachings supplement the functionality of the Quran. On the other hand, the Quran, which forms the core reference on Muslim beliefs and regulations provides moral and spiritual guidance among the Muslims. It also dictates how the Muslims should interact with the non-Muslim community without contravening on the sharia doctrines (Hallaq 20-25).

Therefore, in order to actualize sufficient information availability, it is necessary to form an integrated system that consists among others of licensing information system, licensing services, and licensing monitoring. The integration system at least must be integrated, fast, and simple. Besides capable to provide institutional data accurately, the system is also expected to accelerate time of service through improvement of coordination intensivity transparently, including simplifying reporting procedures which certainly will connect directly with time and cost efficiencies.
