Sharia Law

I created this thread due to a case against a Lina Joy of Malaysia, who converted to Christianity from Islam (I have been following it for a year now).
You can read about her struggles in this thread. Comments welcome (if any) but please be respectful.
I'm not here to convince the forumers of an "evil regime" but wish to learn more about Islamic laws.

What is Sharia Law? Wikipedia defines it as: Sharia (Arabic: شريعة transliteration: Šarī‘ah) is the body of Islamic law. The term means "way" or "path"; it is the legal framework within which the public and some private aspects of life are regulated for those living in a legal system based on Muslim principles of jurisprudence.

Sharia deals with all aspects of day-to-day life, including politics, economics, banking, business law, contract law, sexuality, and social issues.

There is not a strictly codified uniform set of laws pertaining to Sharia. It is more like a system of devising laws, based on the Qur'an, Hadith and centuries of debate, interpretation and precedent.
