.....
i have to say most of the laws we have today compliment the laws of islam, laws of morals are derived mainly from religion.

u mean in other pakistani courts decisions taken r non-islamic

Bazigaar said:

for example...in islam, murder is saza phansi nahi hae...but pakistan mae phansi de jati hae...chori ke saza islam mae imprisonment nahi hae for a given time period....but pak mae jail hote hae..etc etc...

Sall, your question was a bit vague at first. Bazi's first response was what I would have said too. Later when you asked in Pakistan's context, it became clearer. It is very different from a conventional court. In Pak, Sharia court is an appellate branch of Supreme court. An appellate court review judicial laws / appeals and review decisions of lower courts.

In simple words, Sharia appellate court will review a law or a decision when challenged in a sharia court. That is validity of a law or decision on Islamic principles.

if that s the case,,, y do we need a SHARIAT COURT

boy, you are just now smelling the coffee

We still have Brit laws of 19th century which are now obsolete in Brit.

Judicial dichotomy in question highlights the complexity of system. Shariat branch of supreme court was added to the system as an intermediate process towards Islamizing the judicial system. It is not meant to make decision on any cases, it rather serves as a supreme court bench which makes sure that laws governing the country are Islamic. It is one step in the direction of system transition to Islamic law.

I don't know much about judicial systems but my question would be, how effective it has been - any progress made - or has it been an apeasing pill to a section of the society?

Well, i'm not really sure about the pakistani legal system, my views are based completely on european law. Law works side by side with morals, morals are effectively applied in todays law, by morals i mean like acts that are basically "wrong" an example would be the ten commandments, thou shall not kill, thou shall not steel thou shall not commit adultry etc etc.... so these are morally wrong therefore are supported by law, but if you look at the laws of shariah there are values that are percieved as immoral that are not in the state courts i'll give you an example, adultery, the state will not prosecute under this charge, however this is condem,ned in islam, i'm not sure of rights and remedies and also punishments available in the shariah courts. I hope you see the distinction.
