People walking up courthouse steps

Take action

Stop it where you live.

Sharia as law spreads through city halls, family panels, housing rules, and public money — unless citizens show up. Here is the work.

Work, not a slogan

What you can do to stop the spread of Sharia as law

Belief is free. A second legal system is not. If you want one set of rights for every person here, the work is laws, hearings, audits, and shelters — not harassment of neighbors.

Learn first, then speak

Read Sharia as law, In the U.S., and the FAQ. If you cannot say “Muslims are equal citizens” and “harsh punishments and male control of women do not match equal rights” in the same breath, you are not ready to speak for this project.

Know the law where you live

Check whether your state bans FGM, sets marriage at 18, and has a rule that names rights, not a religion. Gaps in state law are how a second family system hides. Start with the policy asks.

Write the people who pass laws

A one-page letter to your state representative and senator beats a comment thread. Ask for: a public judge to review religious family rulings; tracking of FGM and forced marriage; no public money for programs that teach girls they have fewer rights. Find them at the state legislature directory and the U.S. House.

Boost reformers — including Muslims

Share Allies & reading before you share a rant. CLARITy, AHA, One Law for All, and the Council of Ex-Muslims are the people who have paid for this argument. Do not claim them as partners until they say yes.

Use the rooms that already exist

School boards, city councils, bar groups, clinics, and police training. Ask whether staff can spot forced marriage, FGM risk, and honor threats. Ask whether campus “inclusion” rules have become a blasphemy rule. Local. Specific. On the record.

What this is not

  • Do not harass Muslims, vandalize mosques, or treat neighbors as occupiers. That is a crime. It also wrecks the equal-rights case.
  • Do not pass “ban Sharia” bills that name a religion in the main line. Courts will gut them. Name a fair hearing, equal rights, and the right to leave a faith.
  • Do not skip city hall because a slogan is easier. The fight is housing, noise, family status, and public money — not a hunting license on a people.
  • If someone uses this site to target a person for being Muslim, they are not with us.

Hands on a civic book

This week

  • Send the founding statement to two people who will tell you if it sounds like a rights campaign or a rant.
  • Look up your state’s child-marriage age and FGM law. Write one sentence about the gap, if there is one.
  • Write info@onecivillaw.com if you have a correction, a local hearing, or want to volunteer research — not if someone is in immediate danger.
  • If someone is in danger of forced marriage, FGM, or honor violence, skip this site and call 911 or a specialist on Allies & reading.
