Original Note:
There are no formal Sharia law courts in the UK. Sharia councils offer non-binding advice on issues like marriage and divorce, but their decisions aren't legally enforceable. Estimates suggest around 30-85 such councils exist. https://www.theguardian.com/law/2017/mar/01/inside-britains-sharia-councils-hardline-and-anti-women-or-a-dignified-way-to-divorce
