What's the problem? Two Moslems agree to seek arbitration from another Moslem, who applies the principles of his faith and renders a decision. Under the terms of the existing agreement, they both agreed to waive their right to sue in Crown Court.

If two Catholics agree to arbitration under Catholic Canon Law, it's the same principle.

I've yet to see Canon Law given the force of the State in civil disputes.

Nope, never. Sharia law and Canon law are not comparable.

Canon law doesn`t cover commercial disputes. Islamic law and jurisprudence do.
