If all the parties concerned are consenting, and it doesn’t violate English law. There’s nothing to stop a group of people following whichever micky-mouse code they choose to submit themselves to.

Nobody objects to Muslims officiating at marriages and divorces or in personal conflict arbitration.

It becomes a problem when 1) they adjudicate criminal matters in a manner that is not compatible with civil law; and 2) they attempt to apply these laws on the general public.
