Dr. Andrew March is not a Muslim but he is a scholar in Islamic law. He asks: Do you understand Shariah? The issue is, the media has made the word Shariah full of negative connotations.
Shariah is broader than just Islamic law. Shariah means way or path to God; and for Muslims, Shariah goes much deeper than just law. Shariah is the ongoing search for God’s prescriptions for human actions.
Shariah is designed to protect human welfare, which is defined through life, religion, reason, wealth, family and honour.
This is a great video to share with all of your non-Muslim friends, colleagues and relatives so that they have a better understanding of what is Shariah!
