VIDEO: Governor Bans Sharia Law After Imam Asks Shops Not to Sell Booze And Pork
Texas Governor, Ted Abbott, has issued an order banning all Sharia Laws and the declaration of Sharia-compliant cities and towns.
The Governor announced X after a video of protesters carrying placards in support of Sharia law surfaced online.
“I signed laws that BAN Sharia Law and Sharia Compounds in Texas,” Mr Abbott said, reacting to the viral video of Sharia law advocates. “No business and no individual should fear fools like this.”
The Texas governor added, “If this person, or ANYONE, attempts to impose Sharia compliance, report it to local law enforcement or the Texas Dept. of Public Safety.”
Video from the protest shows a Houston-area Islamic cleric demanding that shopkeepers stop selling alcohol, pork, and lottery tickets to comply with Islamic Sharia laws.
Speaking with a megaphone in the video, said, “People should not violate the religion of Islam by selling products that are against our religion. Because we should love what Allah loves and hate what Allah hates.
“We will be visiting all the stores in the neighbourhood where the religion of Islam is ignored.”
