Large majorities in the Muslim world want the Islamic legal and moral code of sharia as the official law in their countries, but they disagree on what it includes and who should be subject to it, an extensive new survey says.
Suicide bombing was mostly rejected In the study by the Washington-based Pew Forum, but it won 40 percent support in the Palestinian territories, 39 percent in Afghanistan, 29 percent in Eygpt and 26 percent in Bangladesh.
Three-quarters of respondents said abortion is morally wrong and 80 percent or more rejected homosexuality and sex outside of marriage.
Over three-quarters of Muslims in the Middle East and North Africa, South Asia and Southeast Asia want sharia courts to decide family law issues such as divorce and property disputes, the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life said on Tuesday.

“There go those wacky moderate Muslims again.”
Ask them what should happen to someone who insults the phrophet and see what % say death
Carpet bomb with Daisy Cutter’s.
is that the new code word for obama
I welcome them to have Sharia law just not in my country. If you don’t like the laws of America get the hell out.
And yet liberals here still think Islam is great, since Obama supports Islam.
Just hit the funerals. Call it ‘crowd control.’
“I welcome them to have Sharia law just not in my country. If you dont like the laws of America get the hell out.”
You sound like one of those ‘Islamaphobics’ Grover Norquist keeps talking about.;<)
Norquist has been calling conservatives Islamaphobic since he was defending building the mosque at ground zero and covering for his radical Muslim friends, many who are now advisers to Obama.
GROVER NORQUIST, Quotes:
Islamaphobic, racist, restrictionists, who merely think of themselves as conservatives, bitter-enders who are still responding to radio talk-show hosts from eight years ago havent noticed that the world has shifted from underneath them, opponents will be marginalized. And he and the gang of 8 are using SPLC talking points to do it.
Many in the civilized world would like to eradicate the disease of Islam. Why the hell can’t there be a telethon.
Really working out in Iraq and Egypt, isn’t it
“Suicide bombing was mostly rejected”
Well I know that makes me feel better. How about you?
Let's say Mecca, or Teheran, maybe Kabul.
There would be competitions: the fastest, the loudest, the lightest, the most economical.
Perhaps a team competition with synchronized explosions.
Seventy-two dancing girls entertain the throngs.
A dog show for the kids, and bacon sandwiches for everybody.
It'll be a smash hit !
Anyone else see a little conflation going on? Thinking abortion and homosexuality and fornication are morally wrong puts you in the sharia camp.
Oh, I don’t want to be like THAT. So let’s be tolerant of people’s sexual choices. Tolerance is good! All kinds of tolerance! So let’s welcome sharia followers to our lands! No problems there that tolerance can’t fix!
Exterminate the vermin.
maybe they should start working with PETA ,Oh wait, PETA people would be the first public hangings
I don’t have a problem with that, as long as they are never allowed to leave their native hell holes, and the ones who are here living amongst us have to go back. Buh-bye.
