No more or less than any other religion or even human nature, Islam can be made to fit with democracy as long as people are willing to compromise minor points of rank and personal - rather than the religious group's - belief.

Islam allows and supports democracy
Democracy in Islam is:
Islam per Quran calls for democracy under the name of consultation "Shoura", so how do you expect prophet Muhammad will violate the Quran rules and commands. Quran says (English meaning translation):
"And those who have responded to their lord and established prayer and whose affair is [determined by] consultation among themselves, and from what We have provided them, they spend." (42:38)"
A:
Democracy developed outside Islamic control and has come slowly and reluctantly to Muslim-majority countries. With few exceptions, nominal democracies are either disguised theocracies like Iran or are at constant risk of the democratic government being overthrown by the military or by Islamic extremists. Islam has made some important contributions to social advancement, but not to democracy.

Democracy in Islam is:
Islam is a religion and to the extent that Islam is exclusively a faith, with prayer, worship, and public ethics, there is no reason why Islam cannot be part, or even the majority, of a functioning democracy that embraces human rights. Indonesia, Turkey, and Albania can show that a Muslim-majority country can operate democratically and with a general support of human rights. (However, as Turkey becomes increasingly Islamist, these rights are fast eroding.)
However, Islamism is a political ideology whose goal is to bring the religious tenets of Islam into the daily functioning of a government and its laws. There are a significant number of Muslims who are Islamists (with estimates typically placing this number at around 15-25% of the worldwide Muslim community). Islamism is a genuine threat to the people because it supports a theocratic state where the law is determined by religious jurists as opposed to the will of the people and general human rights. Islamists use tactics of violence and coercion to bully people into agreeing with their views and ideals, making certain areas of both Muslim-majority and Muslim-minority countries dangerous places for both Muslims and Non-Muslims to express dissenting opinions from the those of the theocrats.
As just one example, the evidence of Indonesia shows that a vibrant democracy is compatible with Islam.

principles of democracy in islam
In order to discuss incompatibility, you need to have two distinct things. Democracy is incompatible with other forms of political theory, such as abolutism, military rule, or theocracy, but it is compatible with most everything else, such as different economic systems, social organizations, religions, etc.

No. Sharia Law is incompatible with Democracy as practiced in the majority of non-Islamic nations in that its doctrine leaves no no room forr an independent Judicial Branch.
