Islamic Shari’ah Council in Scotland (ISCS) was a response to the growing demand for guidance on matters related to Islamic law in Scotland. As an increasing number of Muslims have made Scotland their home, there has been a need for an authoritative body to provide advice on religious issues and help Muslims navigate their daily lives in accordance with the principles of Shari’ah.
The ISCS is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to providing guidance and support to Muslims living in Scotland. Its main role is to help individuals or families facing personal issues or disputes that require guidance in accordance with the principles of Islamic law.
The Council is composed of a team of experienced and highly qualified scholars who are experts in Islamic law and jurisprudence. They offer their services free of charge to anyone who requires them.
