Re: Tripoli About to be Taken Over by Rebels


It's amusing to see Americans become squeamish and bewildered when they hear Sharia Law. A few facts...a) Lybia is 97% Muslim, b) all Muslim countries have some sort of Sharia law. Some are lax others are very strict. Some are mixed with common law, some are not, others have two court systems for common law and sharia law.

Now that we have the basic facts down we are left with one question, what kind of Sharia School of Law will they establish in Libya? Obviously whatever they establish be based on Sunni School of thought. Will they transition to the Hanafi school used in Pakistan and Turkey? Hanabali like the Saudis? Maintain their existing Mālikī school of law much like the rest of the north African countries? Or will they adopt Shafi'i which is used in east African and south east Asian Muslim countries?
