Most "Western" nations also have parallel Sharia legal systems (for example, in Canada polygamy is widely practiced and authorities look the other way; Imams refusing to condemn or work to stop it). Sharia finance is also practiced in many nations around the world. Many other Islamic nations that do not apply Sharia (such as Azerbaijan, Albania, Bosnia, Uzbekistan, and Tajikstan) have large portions of their population who do want it applied or who actively seek to abide by it extra-legally.

Sharia is the define code in the islamic law
The US Constitution forbids the use of any law based on religion. Sharia is a code of Islamic Law based on the teachings of Mohamed. Just as the Constitution forbids government to enforce the Cannon Law of the Roman Catholic Church, it also forbids the government to enforce Sharia. Of course, individuals or groups in the US could decide to follow Sharia as a matter of personal conscience. However, if they attempted to enforce those sanctions in Sharia that result in personal injury or death they would be in violation of civil law and subject to prosecution and punishment by the civil authorities.
