Islamic Sharia Laws 14 Jan 2012, NewAgeIslam.Com Imarat-e-Shariah: The Convergence of Shariah and Tariqat By Prof. Akhtarul Wasey
	The establishment of Imarat Sharia has not only set a glorious example of implementing the Islamic Shariah in the collective life of the Muslims but has also presented a model for emulation by the people of many pluralistic societies of the modern Muslim world. The establishment of Imarat Shariah also made it clear that Shariah and tariqat were not separate ways but the convergence of the two can become a vibrant truth as the first emir of the Imarat Shariah was the Sajjada Nashin of Khanqah-e-Majiriah, Phulwari Sharif to whom all the elder experts of Shariah and religious scholars paid allegiance. -- Prof. Akhtarul Wasey(Translated from Urdu by NewAgeIslam Edit Bureau) http://www.newageislam.com/NewAgeIslamIslamicShariaLaws_1.aspx?ArticleID=6376
