Sydney popular University adopts law courses based on sharia law.
Sydney Law School at the University of Sydney in Australia has two courses which call for elements of sharia law to be recognised in the mainstream legal system including allowances for polygamy and young marriage in Australian legal system.
Sydney University's 'Muslim Minorities And The Law' course uses a textbook which promotes the idea that 'sharia and common law are not inherently incompatible'and that police’s failures to accommodate Islamic religious identity during operations was hampering the fight against Islamist terrorism.
'They are both "law" in the sense they represent and communicate a set of "norms" that operate at both individual and a community level,' the book reads.
Federal Education Minister Simon Birmingham has warned universities that religion has no place in the law.
Simon told that the, “Equality of the law, under the law and before the law should be one of the first principles in our law schools”.
The book also takes aims at judges for denouncing “conservative Muslim values” during sentencing.
But the people are not in support of the law.So, they appealed a petition to the sydney university.
