and you have to ask yourself the question what's the point. in unprecedented ruling a british judge has recognized an islamic faith marriage as being legal under u.k. law the case was brought by a muslim woman who wants to divorce her estranged husband the couple were married at a traditional muslim wedding ceremony also known as twenty years ago but it was regarded as a religious ceremony and therefore not a civil marriage under u.k. law has been had blocks divorce proceedings invoking sharia law under which a union can only be dissolved by a council of muslim leaders but such councils have no legal jurisdiction in the u.k. choco involved earlier discussed it with a muslim rights campaigner and british politics commentator. how significant do you think this ruling is in terms of how britain regards religious weddings and the marriage there after it is essentially the first time that the british courts our

legal system has essentially recognized a parallel legal system nearly shari'a law it does set a precedent with the right perhaps establishing what the bindery serang that should be so i view this as troubling misguided and potentially very disturbing for the future the judge was talking about recognizing it as a void marriage under english common law which is not exactly the same as shari'ah although this might might be similar yes in fact to clean made that point that this is not about recognizing a shari'a law it's about recognizing and implementing what is seen as a marriage or avoid marriage and english common law not shari'a law in actual fact it's good everything to do with it couldn't be more clear and you being ingenuous by suggesting it's somehow completely divorced from islam it's everything to do with shari'a law as it's understood in this united kingdom and we cannot of i'm sure you'd agree with me there is no place for parallel legal systems within the

u.k. with the years over the centuries english law has improved to the level where it's very very similar to the general aims and objectives of shari'a anyway so. a marriage under english common law is very similar to marriage under serial or anywhere in syria has certain guidelines certain rights and one to responsibilities for a husband and wife or people who are you know showing the world that there has been whoa and likewise english common law does as well someone to suggest that should real or in its full manifestation has any compare ability to british law is a little cross i believe this judge has set a precedent which does carry consequences those consequences seemed it tell of the it is. to particular prominence which it doesn't deserve above any other fee if and those married on her islam of the whole was her the opportunity to get the rights was this judge has no veil there and by simply having a civil a civil certainly
3:03 am
a look if you want to get my daughter shari'a law that's one thing but birdbrain but it isn't does not provide you with legal status under british law and this judge has given them a backstop i think that's all well to be fair the woman in this case she was arguing that she did ask for the civil ceremony and that her husband refused to go forward with it that her father had also asked for it and it just was not an option for just the same if she asked for a divorce and he would not give it to her so someone if we can go to you again what do you think this means for other women who are an unhappy marriage just possibly that they might also try and take this route the rights that women and indeed men have in this scenario are the exact same rights that they would have under the english common law so when you look at things for example the division of assets and so for if there is an asset which is truly shared like the marital home or a car or something that work together then regardless of if then why we don't not.

even under the english common law let alone shari'a obviously they have an enticement to both have an entire team and two that think presidents can lead to all kinds of situations and in this case what we're seeing is a parallel law being legitimized in the u.k. i repeat should be in court how likely is in the united kingdom. the suicide bombing has had a mosque in eastern afghanistan during friday prayers sources quote officials are saying at least twenty nine people are dead and more than fifty eighty scuse me others are wounded here is a local journalist be loll sorry. the casualties and fatalities could be much higher the attack took place during the friday prayer when the sun mosque was busy hosting a big number of worshippers in the provincial capital of cairo this is the capsule of paktia province in southeastern afghanistan the shias in afghanistan are
3:05 am
extremely vulnerable especially when it comes to places of worship islamic state of attack them now that part of the country on the border with pakistan was erased on region in the koran agency is aware militant pakistani groups are also operating like jenga v. in different capacities as well as the pakistan based militant network they're calling it work so well how to really see who was behind this attack but what is an extremely dangerous trend now in afghanistan is that the afghan government and its international allies continue to fail to protect lives in afghanistan and when you have such a big number of casualties in fatalities you are actually thinking about the destroyed society almost you're talking about families losing their breadwinners people are losing their lives their aspirations their dreams in this friend six really dangerous trend actually continues and in most major cities across

afghanistan and so the question is what if any. security strategy is in place to prevent these sort of attacks in the future. here is a local journalist. we just heard from local journalist also while we were watching on john thomas the back of her mind in about thirty one. do the corporate mainstream media fuel america's cultural wars do they magnify political differences it would seem so how else could it be if the only topic that is discussed and argued over this donald trump are journalists infected with trump arrangements. just financial survival.
