With 100 Sharia courts and 423 new mosques London is more Islamic than many Muslim countries

Mosques are popping up all over Britain, especially in it’s capital city of London. Sharia courts are already in function in London; handing out actual decisions to London’s ever growing Muslim population. There are now officially 100 Sharia courts in London. The allowance of these justice systems in parallel with British courts has made Brits somewhat worried. It’s now fully legal for Sharia courts to operate in Britain thanks to British Arbitration Act and the system of Alternative Dispute Resolution.

 

“London is more Islamic than many Muslim countries,” Islamic preacher Maulana Syed Raza Rizvi told local media.

Churches still outnumber mosques in Britain, but there are many mosques that are becoming overcrowded. Five years ago the Daily Mail published photos of churches and mosques in London. The difference was astonishing.

The St Mary’s Church had only 12 people attending mass. While nearby at the Brune Street Estate mosque there were over 100 Muslims, full to capacity.

Since 2001, 500 London churches of all denominations have been turned into private homes. While this was going on, mosques have been popping up all over London. From 2012 to 2014 the number of Brits who identified as Muslim has grown by over one million.

Regular churchgoers are declining at a rate that within a generation, their numbers will be three times lower than that of Muslims who go regularly to a mosque on Friday. In Britain it’s estimated that by 2020, Muslims going to a mosque regularly will significantly outnumber all Christians going to church.

Muslims attend Friday prayers on a rainy first day of Ramadan, at the courtyard of a housing estate next to a small BBC community centre and mosque in east London July 20, 2012.

Since 2001, 500 London churches of all denominations have been turned into private homes. During the same period, British mosques have been proliferating.

Between 2012 and 2014, the proportion of Britons who identify themselves as Anglicans fell from 21% to 17%, a decrease of 1.7 million people, while, according to a survey conducted by the respected NatCen Social Research Institute, the number of Muslims has grown by almost a million. 

There are now officially 100 Sharia courts in London. The allowance of these justice systems in parallel with British courts has made Brits worried. It’s now fully legal for Sharia courts to operate in Britain thanks to British Arbitration Act and the system of Alternative Dispute Resolution.

As London becomes more Islamic, you may wonder when they will rename the city “Londonistan”. Well it may not be that far off.
