To Christians, they can read the Commandments given to Moses in the Old Testament. This is almost the same, but Christians are allowed to interpret these as said in a time and context and adapt these to what they consider correct today. Muslims may do the same and may elect their priests to pass judgment. The Bible say that a limb should be cut off to the thief, so does the Koran. So, in some countries, you risk losing a finger should you be caught stealing.
US law will also consider stealing to be wrong, since it shares the same values. But the consequence - the judgment passed has been determined by politicians over the years, and judges have passed sentences to keep others from stealing.

The Islamic law is different from the US because Islam law is a religious law, not for a country, but for a belief. So while Muslims read the same books of Moses in their Koran as Christians have in the Bible, we should be able to compare.
You can drink beer and wine in most Muslim countries, because Muslims also believe that what you do is between you and the Almighty. They have also come to that modesty is acceptable, and abuse a disgrace. A religious law is directives on how to conduct yourself to please the "Almighty". You cannot argue religion, you either believe or not.
You find that many true Christians will decline the same vices as the Muslims: they will get their women to cover their hair, not get drunk or abuse substance, not gamble, sex in marriage only - because they believe in the same values, such as found in the ten commandments.
Politicians can decide on laws that they believe is right, and then revert and vote against the law should they change their mind. The Koran nor the Bible mentions anything about trade laws, but when it comes to criminal law, the US law is very much aligned with Islamic law since this is founded on the books of Moses, just as the Christians and Jewish faiths.
Islamic law is a religous set of rules to determine what is right and wrong.
The law in the US declares itself nonreligous and sets down what is allowed and not allowed not what is right and wrong.
The Islamic law is usually applicable to Muslims alone while the United States law is supreme it applies to all the citizens of America.
one law is islamic and one is from the u.s.a

The only real similarity between Islamic Law and US Law is the strong presence of judge-made law, also called "case law". This means that while specific rules made by a legislature or a holy book may have a lot of merit, much of the finer points of the law are articulated using case law and analogies.However, the actual findings of Shari'a vs. those of US law on most questions are actually radically different. As actual corpuses of law, the two systems are irreconcilable.
As Muslims, the Ottomans followed Islamic law. But there were topics not fully covered by Islamic law---criminal law and taxation, for example. So the sultans passed laws to address such situations. Suleyman organized these laws into a legal code that could effectively govern the vast and expanding empire.
This question is contradictory. By definition, US law is not the same as Islamic law. To have your marriage recognised in the US, you must be able to be declared as married according to US law. Similarly, your divorce must be recognised under US law, whose requirements are separate to those of Islamic law.Divorce law obviously varies from state to state, but at a minimum you will have to contact your local registry office and ask them for a certificate of divorce. You will be able to submit evidence of your divorce under Islamic law as part of that request, but you will still most likely have to fill out a form.
The name of the Islamic Holy Law is called Shari'ah. It is the law that we, Muslims, rely on. Also, the Holy Quran and Hadith as well. The Shari'ah tells us between haraam and halal. It also tells us about the good and evils of this world. Good luck!

Officially, the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan is an Islamic Republic. Islamic Republics are governed by Islamic law.
Islamic Law, called the SHARI'A, is based on the exegesis of Islamic texts, especially the Qur'an and a case by case applicability to present cases. As a result, there are certain laws and penal codes which cannot be altered, modernized, or reformed. The base Islamic texts are considered to be Divinely Authored and are, therefore, beyond question or debate. Even if the majority disagrees with a law, they have to abide by it because the law has Divine approval.US Law is based on the principle that all laws are subject to debate, revision, and majority approval. The Constitution of the United States sets up the principles of how the country is governed, but each aspect of those principles can be amended and altered should the population be of the view that something should be changed. Laws can be modernized and altered on a fundamental level should the votes come through.
