Balls Spotted in Ontario: Judge Refuses to Recognize Sharia Divorce.

Good on you federal court Justice James Russell! "Hoda Hussein Hazimeh claims a "talaq" divorce with ex-husband Ali Hammoud conducted under Sharia law and registered in Lebanon should be recognized here so she can sponsor her second husband, Hafez Farhat. But federal court disagreed and ruled against her. ..Omar Farouk, president of the International Muslim Organizaton, said members are monitoring the case. "Religious divorces are fairly common in the community," Farouk said. "But in Canada, the law of the land overcomes Sharia law." Glad you got the memo.
