Nearly 40% of Muslims in Denmark “would like to have the country’s laws at least partly based on Sharia law.” This statistic is absurd. It should be established that newcomers to any country have a duty to live by that country’s laws and mores. But not Islamic supremacists, who view their primary duty as being to do dawah, that is, proselytize for Islam, and ultimately subjugate their new host countries under the Sharia.
Some in Denmark are showing signs of having enough. This includes Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. As Jihad Watch has previously reported, Odense Mayor Peter Rahbæk Juel also stated: “It is psychological violence, carried out by means of Sharia law. It’s unacceptable, and it hurts my stomach to read these things.”
These truthful words are seldom heard. Too many leaders prefer to pretend that Sharia oppression and the many human rights abuses committed in the name of Islam don’t exist. Their primary concern is to avoid being called “intolerant” and “Islamophobic.”
“A more recent report by the Danish Justice Ministry found that nearly eight out of ten Danish Muslims would like to make criticism of Islam illegal, as opposed to merely 18 percent of the general population.” And this is precisely what Islamic lobbies try to achieve.
“It is wrong. It is oppressive of women. It is not Danish. And it must never, ever become Danish” – Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen lashes out against Sharia Law,” Malta Winds (thanks to The Religion of Peace), September 28, 2020:
As previous surveys have indicated, nearly four out of ten Danish Muslims would like to have the country’s laws at least partly based on Sharia law, and over 10 percent even said Denmark’s laws should be solely based on Sharia.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has strongly denounced recent examples of Sharia law practised by certain imams in the country.
Among other things, controversial imam Abu Bashar (civil name Mohamad Al-Khaled Samha) from the city of Odense has demanded than women sign divorce contracts, which is contrary to Danish law. According to them, a woman loses custody of her children if she remarries or behaves in a way that “violates her own or her family’s honour”, and additionally must provide her husband with money to obtain a divorce.
Odense Mayor Peter Rahbæk Juel was shocked and distressed by the news.
“It is psychological violence, carried out by means of Sharia law. It’s unacceptable, and it hurts my stomach to read these things”, he told the newspaper Berlingske, calling this a “wake-up call” about the situation in parallel societies.
The imam was subsequently reported to the police for psychological violence, which is punishable by up to three years in prison. The extent of similar arrangements bypassing Danish law remains unknown.
Juel expressed hope that strong action will send “a clear societal signal to imams and preachers who practise Sharia law that it is punishable in Denmark”.
Frederiksen issued a stern condemnation, stressing that Sharia “doesn’t belong in Denmark”.
“It is wrong. It is oppressive of women. It is not Danish. And it must never, ever become Danish”, Frederiksen wrote in a Facebook post.
Furthermore, Frederiksen pledged that the government will do “everything in its power to stop this”.
“An imam should not interfere in divorce at all. It is only a choice to be made by the two persons who in their time entered into the marriage. Nobody else. This confirms our fearful suspicions about the undemocratic tendencies that exist in parts of Denmark”, Frederiksen wrote.
Previous surveys in the country indicated that four out of ten Danish Muslims would like to have laws at least partly based on Sharia law, and over 10 percent even said the nation’s laws should be solely based on Sharia.
A more recent report by the Danish Justice Ministry found that nearly eight out of ten Danish Muslims would like to make criticism of Islam illegal, as opposed to merely 18 percent of the general population…..

>The imam was subsequently reported to the police for psychological violence, which is punishable by up to three years in prison. The extent of similar arrangements bypassing Danish law remains unknown.
I’m sorry folks, but the very term “psychological violence” has Orwellian overtones. My libertarian inclinations recoil at its use….as they do with the term ‘hate crime’ (I have no problem if the Iman was charged with a technical violation for pushing illegal divorce decrees),
European politicians can rail all they want about the evils of Sharia….but doing so won’t change the beliefs or practices of Muslim immigrants. The only rational way to prevent Sharia from making further inroads into society is the one west Europeans are adamant about NOT taking: A moratorium on large-scale Muslim immigration.
rubiconcrest says
The Reconquista of Spain teaches us this important lesson. ‘Sword and Scimitar’ by Raymond Ibrahim discusses the 100+ year attempt to assimilate the remaining Muslims from the late 1400’s to 1614 to Spanish rule. In the end, although they appeared Christian they were Muslims worshipping in secret constantly ‘colluding and subverting’ the infidel government. Conversion to Christianity was no solution due to the ‘dispensation of taquiyya’. In the end they were expelled from Spain to north Africa.
If Muslims living in the west do not recognize the superiority of Western thought and continue to struggle in all ways, including high birth rates, to implement Sharia and have the numbers to vote to change Western democracies what then is the solution?
At least in Denmark we have a woman speaking up and seeing the writing on the wall. Where are the freedom loving, women’s rights activists, RBG Democrats, on the issue of Sharia? They should be running from the party that would ally with those who would enslave them.

the Danes and Norwegians have a decent chance. They are tough, they are pragmatic. Yes, they have a lunatic left, and yes, they had been in government for a long time, most Danish women simply don’t take shit from anyone. They are planning to build a fence on the border with Germany. That should tell everyone something.
James Lincoln says

Denmark publicly states that it’s 43-mile fence along its border with Germany is to keep out wild pigs that could pose a major risk to the country’s pork industry.
But there could be other reasons – not publicly stated…

That is right Sharia law is wrong ,very wrong, and likewise it’s also terrible oppressive to women.
For Denmark is a western nation and should never ever degrade women with the harsh cruel oppressive Sharia law in those Islamic nations of the East to their females.
As for example, that “mullah regime” Iran with its brutal and cruel violator of human rights and not the USA. Especially regarding the human rights of girls and woman.
For example, to imprison women for not wearing the hijab is but one part of the anti-female tyranny of this tyrannical “mullah regime” of Iran.
For that ruthless cruel brutal heinous l regime of Iran that is so unfittingly has the word “Republic” in its title ,for its called “ The Islamic Republic of Iran” [ I R I].
That brutal cruel Islamic tyrannical regime of Iran is full of ruthless malicious misogyny.
On the topic of this Islamic tyranny of Iran a former Muslim revealed that “The IRI system recognizes women as dependent upon men and incomplete human beings who need to be supervised and controlled by men and the State. This author further exposed that “Women are created for the purposes of giving pleasure to men and child bearing – functions that confine them to the home” This is a male Chauvinistic as can possibly be.
In addition this writer further makes it known that “The IRI legal system still retains traditional patriarchal bias that can be described as nothing but systemic subordination of women , which is undoubtedly a human rights violation .” This author further reveals that “Iran is of what Islamic fundamentalists desire, an Islamic State, and the consequence of achieving it “State Terror. Instead of utopia, Iran is an Islamic totalitarian nightmare…” and “the Islamic Republic of Iran exists and operates as what every Islamic fundamentalist dreams of, an Islamic state ruled by Sharia …What followed its establishment was the inevitable consequence and inexorable logic of its Islamic premises; state terrorism, a merciless tyranny.” [1]
This heinous Islamic has been also exposed by another author who was born and lived in a Middle Eastern nation for many years. She wrote “Female freedom and independence is one of the greatest sins in Islam…” and “Women in Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.” [2]
All this is wicked, unjust and misogynistic to the extreme. Islam had not regard for human life, regardless of what the apologists for this religion will claim.

I am really impressed by her, but in the UK it is pathetic, latest I heard:
130,000 Muslim girls BORN in the UK have gone through FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION ( cutting off their CLITORIS, to prevent them from ever having sexual pleasure )
It is also called FEMALE CIRCUMSCISION and is approved,though optional,in various sayings of Mohamed in the HADITH books.

Its’ very true that Sharia law is oppressive wrong .Even murderous wrong. For Sharia law is the foundation of Islamic “culture.” The important thing to realize and understand that Islamic “culture” is not actually a real culture but cruel savage primitive murderous system of brutal religious vicious violence. So much so this under Sharia law it even permits the malicious murder “tradition” called “honor killing.”
Be that vicious murderous action take place in Afghanistan and Pakistan, in any other Islamic country and now even some Western nations.
About the topic of Islamic violence which, something, takes the form of the brutal cruel vicious and murderous action that is so inappropriately y called “honor killing.” This malicious misogyny is so heinous callous and malice- filled that it’s an affront to all that is good, decent and right. In addition, the author, Brigitte Gabriel in her book which is entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED on pages 171,172 , that “The shocking reality is that most Muslim men ,including those educated in the West ,have no objection to the degradation of women in their countries .Across the Muslim world, even in moderate Islamic countries, women’s’ rights are almost nonexistent…Women is Islam are considered unclean ,deemed inferior even to dirt.” In this just cited book it explains on page 176 that “Honor killings have also come to the West thanks to the rise of Islamic immigration. “
As just quoted “Honor killing have also come to the West.” This, of course, also include Denmark.
The Danish people don’t need or want that Islamic Sharia law based brutal criminal Islamic savagery in their country.

Christopher Watson says
Moslems do not have our morals. They live on a different planet. Our leaders seem to ignore what everybody else knows. Moslems get away with the most barbaric actions. If a moslem girl is found to have suffered FGM the parents should be charged with attempted murder or gross bodily harm, which it is. The sentence should be severe; at least 30 years without parole. If we allow this to continue then Europe will accept a parallel system of law within 20 years.

A brave and eminently correct Prime Minister. She has far more balls (and most probably sound knowledge too) than do, among so many other woeful men, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, David Cameron, Boris Johnson, John Kasich, Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden.
I think it imperative that it be understood by a wider and wider Western audience with each passing year that, unlike other religious legal systems which only apply to believers, as examples Roman Catholic Canon Law and Judaic Law, Sharia (effectively Islamic law) applies to EVERYONE, whether Muslim or non-Muslim.
And Sharia is a mortal enemy of liberty. English Common Law is not. Roman Law, often called Civil Law, also is not. But Sharia most definitely cannot be squared with freedom and other very good things like women’s rights and true equality under the law. It is oppressive many times over and I don’t trust any Muslim who says they don’t want Sharia applied in a Western nation because such a Muslim is either 1) lying; 2) knows what Sharia is about but foolishly thinks you can have Islam without Sharia; or 3) doesn’t know what Sharia really entails. Whichever, none are worthy of trust.
James Lincoln says
Wellington says,
“,,,Sharia (effectively Islamic law) applies to EVERYONE, whether Muslim or non-Muslim.”
100% spot on – that point is missed by all muslim apologists.

This fool morgan, is arguing for the moslims…and saying others are engaging in hypocrisy. He should learn more about the moslims seeing the laws of every where else, and refusing to abide by any but their own lawless form.
He should also be asked by the guy who is against what moslims want, about the thief having a hand cut off, or a woman who is raped being murdered because she can’t get four moslim males…who engage in rape themselves…to speak for her against another moslim male. who raped her.
Jews don’t advocate for these things, nor do they engage in the rape of little girls and call it “marriage” as moslims do.
moslims want everyone in whatever country to be forced to live by their lawless, filthy evil they call “law.”
The interviewer is a total fool and arguing for evil makes him complicit in whatever evil is committed by moslims.

Piers Morgan putting his ignorance, his lack of civilised restraint, and his tasteless bombast on public display, as he does every day..

Kesselman says
The important matter do Danes and other Moslem occupied people actually alter the unbearable situation? Until recently PM Mette Frederiksen and her Democrat Socialist party were in favor of the intake of unplaceable Moslems.—Stats are one thing showing the enormous criminal rate for Moslems the other thing is that common ppl daily encounter unpleasant incidents where Moslems are the main actor. This will finally do the trick. Like in Nazi-occupied Denmark during WW2 ppl tell each other jokes about the occupying enemy. It can’t be told in the open but if one perceives the situation to be safe nasty things are told.—I haven’t statistics on this but something tells me that those grave incidents experienced with Moslems in Denmark today exceed what the common man experienced with the German Wehrmacht. It says something! Am I right?

islam is bound for the lake of fire and there it will be destroyed forever. Until then, people who love what is right and good and virtuous , viewing life as sacred, should oppose islam and should tell everyone they know how very evil it is.
moslims should be forced to realize that what they believe is not acceptable. If they wish to continue to believe it, that is their choice, but those who oppose it have every right from our Creator to oppose it…in word and deed.

Christine Douglass-Williams is right. It’s probably more like 65% of Muslims who want Sharia. The other 35% are ‘nominal’ Muslims who have little belief or practice.
Islam is antithetical to the broadly progressive, egalitarian and liberal values of Danes.
