Original Note:
There are no Sharia courts in the UK and any claiming to be are not legally binding. There are Sharia councils. These councils and tribunals deal with Sharia principles, but they aren't courts of law. https://amp.theguardian.com/law/2017/mar/01/inside-britains-sharia-councils-hardline-and-anti-women-or-a-dignified-way-to-divorce https://www.roythorne.co.uk/site/blog/family-law-blog/an-overview-of-sharia-law https://fullfact.org/law/uks-sharia-courts/
