33. That is debatable

granted, the Sharia courts in the uK have not attempted to deal with criminal cases.

But Sharia arbitration is dealing with theft cases in Germany.

And Sharia arbitration 'courts' in the UK have predominance over secular courts in matters like divorce.

I remember a few testimonies by women who were desperate to get a Sharia divorce ruling in their favor, even after they had been granted divorce by a legal UK court.

Based on that kind of soft power over hearts and minds, I'm not quite sure one can't quite call them courts.
