To: null and void

You posted specifically about Sharia. You have yet to show where Sharia says women cannot own property.

Here's an example of state sponsored sharia law in action:

Statement of Nina Shea, Director
Freedom House Center for Religious Freedom
Before the Congressional Human Rights Caucus
“Abdul Rahman and Anti-Conversion Laws”
April 7, 2006

...(See, New York Times. “The Crescent and the Gavel,” J. Alexander Their -a legal adviser to Afghanistan’s constitutional and judicial reform committee- March 26, 2006) fail to understand the pivotal, critical role of religious freedom. As important as property rights and criminal procedure are, without a right to religious freedom, they may not be guaranteed either, at least not for all groups. Blasphemy and apostasy will be criminalized and used against those Muslims who struggle to promote property rights for women heirs, for example – as was actually demonstrated in the arrest last October of the women’s magazine editor in Afghanistan. Individual rights across the board, equality under the law and other hallmarks of modernity will be undermined by a state-enforced retrograde interpretation of sharia.

Here

Once again - Blasphemy and apostasy will be criminalized and used against those Muslims who struggle to promote property rights for women heirs

Just a reminder: Blasphemy and apostasy both carry the death penalty...

Defend them all you wish, quibble about the finner points of what is islamic, and just how islamic sharia is, or how in keeping with sharia the current practices of islam are.

May your chains not bother you, may you pay the jizyah tax with a smile, and never do anything to offend your masters.

God help you. I won't be there to defend you. I will die before I allow that to happen to my country.
