Sharia (the code of Islamic law) influences Muslims in much the same way that halacha (the code of Jewish law) influences Jews or canon law (the law code of the Catholic Church) influences Catholics. Each of these law codes has, at various times and places, served as a working code of law guiding civil society or large parts of that society. Each of them is still considered to be binding on members of the respective religious communities by members of that community.
