Symposium: Do American Muslims want Sharia?

Do American Muslims want Sharia?

We owe it to fellow Americans to clarify the myths about Sharia, and propose fixing this problem through a conference with the Islamic scholars and those who are opposed to Sharia to make the event credible.

Let's "clear the air" of misunderstandings for all Americans. We need to put this fear behind and move on with our lives and bring peace and prosperity to fellow Americans.

• Event: Do American Muslims Want Sharia?
• Date: May 2017
• Time: 2:00 - 4:30 PM
• Venue: TBD
• Who: Americans in Public service, Media and the Movers and Shakers
• Presenters: Sharia Opposers and Muslim Scholars
• Observers: Academics
• Organized by: The Center for Pluralism & World Muslim Congress
• Sponsoring Organizations: To be added.

Purpose: Is to demystify Sharia. There is a fear of Sharia among fellow Americans who are not Muslims, and there are Muslims who do not see any harm in personal Sharia while no Muslim Organization has sought to bring Public Sharia to America.  The program hopes to bring clarity to Americans including American Muslims that;

• There is a public Sharia and Personal Sharia - Link
• Muslims are committed to the American laws
• No American Muslim organization has asked to bring Public Sharia to America
• A Muslims may wish it but the majority of Muslims will oppose public sharia.
• Sharia is a human effort to serve justice and needs major amendments - Link

At the Center for Pluralism our goal is to build a cohesive America where no American has to live in apprehension, tension or fear the other. www.CenterforPluralism.com

The World Muslim Congress is a think tank. It is about Muslims and their civic responsibilities in creating a dignified religious, social and civic space for themselves in the community of faiths. We do not distinguish between a Sunni, Shia, Ahmadiyya, WD Muhammad, Ismaili, Bohra or the subsets of each group, all believe in God, the Prophet and the accountability of their actions and whoever calls himself or herself a Muslim is a Muslim. This is our world and our God collectively.

The Center for Pluralism is an initiative of American Muslims, but it is not a Muslim organization. However, it is committed to pave the way for Muslims to become a part of the American story just as it is committed to do the same for others religious groups. What does it take for Muslims to be a part of the society?  

We invite volunteers and sponsors for this program.
