The Question of Sharīʿa in Denmark

Niels Valdemar Vinding

The Question of Sharīʿa in Denmark

Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies

Abstract

Denmark contributor Niels V. Vinding comments on recent discussions of sharīʿa in Denmark that have arisen on the basis of uninformed media reporting, which has had the consequence of sparking legislation that may have discriminatory effects on Muslims. These developments come in the wake of the Danish documentary Under the Veil of the Mosque, which he labels a misguided attempt to pin the difficulty surrounding Muslim integration into liberal Danish society on the moral preaching of conservative Muslim clerics.
