Does Your Financial Institution Participate in Shariah Compliant Finance?
The most common requests we receive here at SFW are questions as to whether banks or brokerage houses “are Shariah-compliant?” As a result of these numerous inquiries, for the past several weeks, we have carefully compiled a list of financial institutions active in the USA that have some form of tie to Shariah Compliant Finance.

Malaysia is known as a bustling hub of Shariah Finance, but what many people do not realize is that they have implemented a system whereby non-Muslims pay higher tax rates to fund Islamic missionary projects. The good folks at Jihad Watch have the details… http://www.jihadwatch.org/2011/07/malaysias-dhimmis-fund-islamic-dawah.html
Egyptian Muslim leaders are caught in a storm of controversy after a human rights group confronted them about a fatwa (Islamic edict) that stated the building of a church is “a sin against God.” Grand Mufti Ali Gomaa, the highest official of religious law in Egypt, and the justice minister have issued an investigation of […]
Diana West has a great article over on Town Hall today about Yale’s decision to censor the Mohammed Cartoons. She makes a convincing case that Yale has done so because it is seeking the same donations that schools like Harvard has received from Shariah-promoting Jihadists… http://townhall.com/Common/PrintPage.aspx?g=341e746b-1570-4a49-b2a3-8a00807c770d&t=c
British show the rest of Europe how to be good dhimmis
Some folks in Europe are less than enthusiastic about Shariah-Compliant Finance. Perhaps this is because the basis of Shariah-Compliant Finance, Shariah itself, is a barbaric, ancient doctrine which inherently abuses human rights. Never mind that, the British are “flexible” when it comes to Shariah-Compliant Finance and the UK is fast becoming an international Islamic finance […]
If there is a Western financial institution that has done more to promote Shariah than HSBC, we don’t know about it. HSBC has embraced Shariah enthusiastically and is involved in its financial arm everywhere from Western Europe to the Persian Gulf to the Orient. If there is a financial institution worthy of a boycott by […]
Malaysian police have arrested nine Christians, accusing them of attempting to convert Muslim university students. Police detained the nine Christians in a room attached to a Kuala Lumpur university.

What’s Next? Shariah-Compliant Hotels (complete with zakat payments to Islamic charities and EEOC violations)
The hospitality industry has generally been haram under Shariah-Compliant Finance, but that is changing. Now we’re seeing a movement to expand Shariah-Compliant hotels into the West. A close examination of the mechanisms and practices surrounding Shariah-Compliant hotels illustrates just exactly why the the barbaric Shariah code is almost completely incompatible with Western values and laws. […]
We often hear from skeptics that there is no way that Shariah will ever become a part of our culture, society, economy and legal system. But it is already happening in Europe where the UK is incorporating Shariah into its legal system and now it is also happening in Germany. And lest you think it […]
This article isn’t about Shariah, but it is obnoxious enough so as to prompt me to post it anyway, especially since it refers to one of the rogue nations ruled by Shariah, Iran. One of the leaders of the movement to appease the Jihadists…er..I meant to say, “engage” the Muslim world, is a man by […]
Christopher Logan over at Islam in Action blog has posted a follow up to his interview of the president of University Bank in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Trying to make us play by their rules: Muslims protest full-head photos on drivers licenses
One requirement in Muslim countries is that women must be covered. This is applied and enforced to varying degrees with some countries insisting on complete and total coverage, such as with a burka or niqab (very popular with the Taliban) and others only requiring that hair be covered, such as with a hijab. There are […]
Islamist politicians in Indonesia are attempting to impose Shariah on the entire country, including non-Muslims, with legislation which would basically entrench Shariah standards for food products. Critics of the bill correctly point out that it will directly impact non-Muslims. No doubt, this is exactly why the Islamists have introduced the legislation. It should also be […]
As the United Kingdom makes great efforts to become a perfect model of dhimmitude, they have allowed Muslim males to take on multiple wives since, under Shariah, they are in fact allowed to do so. Never mind the fact that Muslims were never allowed to violate Western polygamy laws for decades, if not centuries. In […]
Iran’s Religious Persecution
Not enough attention is paid to the fact that Iran is ruled by Shariah and, as a result, women’s rights there are dismal, human rights overall are medieval and religious minorities are persecuted. The persecution of religious minorities is a requirement of Shariah. There can simply be no separation of the fact that Iran has […]
About a year ago, the Archbishop of Canterbury remarked that Shariah law could and should be applied to family law and other aspects of law for Muslims in the United Kingdom. He based this assertion at least partially on the fact that Shariah-Compliant Finance had already been widely accepted in Britain. And thus, one […]
The Third Jihad
“The Third Jihad” is an excellent and compelling sequel to “Obsession” that will be released in May. But you can view large portions of the documentary in four parts on YouTube:
The Saudi-dominated Organization of the Islamic Conference, a bloc of 57 Islamic nations, has reached a near-dominant position in the UN, including promoting a resolution against the “defamation of religion.” This is an outgrowth of the Mohammed cartoons and films like “Fitna.” The reason this is considered “creeping Shariah” is because it is illegal in […]
Look at the bright side, maybe they don’t really mean it? Notice in the article linked below that McDonald’s has already gone halal in the future Islamic capital of the United Kingdom… http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/view/64532/Make-Southall-the-UK-capital/
One cannot fully understand the implications of Shariah-Compliant Finance without first gaining an understanding of Shariah itself. One of the most vital aspects of Shariah for those of us in the West to understand is its close association with Jihad. In fact, it probably should not be referred to as an “association.” Shariah and Jihad […]
The Jihadists are quite adept at using “lawfare” to force America to accept Shariah. The question in this case in Connecticut is not about whether this convicted murderer gets to eat what he wants, it’s about whether the Jihadists can gain a foothold and have a precedent set whereby Shariah, disguised as “religious rights” can […]
OVER 60% OF BRITISH MUSLIM SCHOOLS HAVE LINKS TO TERRORISM
Britain’s Muslim schools have been sharply criticised in a controversial draft report commissioned by a leading think tank which suggests that over 60 per cent of them are linked to potentially dangerous Islamic fundamentalists. An early version of the report, entitled When Worlds Collide, alleges that of the 133 Muslim primary and secondary schools it […]

www.INFIDELSARECOOL.COM posted this article, This is a great idea, because muslims are so tolerant in allowing Christianity to flourish in their countries. That is, if you forget the arrests, torture and executions of converts from islam to Christianity, and the persecution of non-muslims in general. Muslim prayer rooms should be opened in Catholic schools, say […]
