Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Florida:
   19  
   20         Section 1. Section 61.040, Florida Statutes, is created to
   21  read:
   22         61.040 Application of the law of a foreign country in
   23  courts relating to matters arising out of or relating to
   24  chapters 61 and 88.—

So what is chapter 61? Child custody.

(my bookmarked page no longer exists, so let's get the archived page)
http://web.archive.org/web/20130221041204/http://www.islamic-sharia.org/children/islamic-perspective-on-child-custody-after-divorce.html

"Whoever has custody of a child has to abide by conditions concerning residence and Islamic upbringing, to ensure that the child's welfare is properly cared for. The court may, if necessary, enforce these conditions or direct that the child be given to the next eligible custodian."

So which governs? Sharia, or Florida and U.S. law?
