~ Have you ever wondered about Shariah law taking root in some places across Europe and the Inited States? Is Shariah law good or bad? ~
In an era of growing concern over Islamic ideology, Sharia law in America, and its implications for religious freedom and national security, former Muslim Isik Abla stands as a bold, compassionate voice of warning and hope. Born and raised in Turkey, Abla escaped a violent extremist marriage and found transformation in Christ. Today, as founder of Isik Abla Ministries, she reaches hundreds of millions across more than 200 countries with the Gospel while sounding the alarm on Sharia law’s threat to American freedom.
Isik Abla’s Journey: From Islamic Extremism in Turkey to Freedom in Christ
Isik Abla was born in Istanbul, Turkey, into a devout Muslim home marked by severe verbal, physical, and emotional abuse amid the trauma of civil war. As a young girl, she internalized radical teachings, even dreaming of becoming a suicide bomber to please Allah. Trapped in a dangerous marriage to a Muslim extremist involved in jihad, she faced repeated violence—including an attempt on her life. In 1996, she fled to the United States, arriving broken, suicidal, and hopeless.
In America, Abla encountered the radical love of Jesus Christ in a life-changing moment that shattered the fear and darkness she had known under Islam. Her dramatic conversion from jihad to Jesus became the foundation of her ministry. Today, she leads Isik Abla Ministries, with television and digital programs airing in multiple languages on six continents, reaching vast audiences in the Muslim world and beyond with messages of hope, redemption, and truth.
What Is Sharia Law? A Former Muslim’s Insider Explanation
According to Isik Abla, Sharia law is far more than a private religious code or personal piety. It is an all-encompassing legal, political, and societal system designed with one ultimate goal: the Islamization of entire nations. Drawing from her upbringing in a devout Muslim family and her marriage to a jihadist, she explains that Sharia governs every aspect of life—from family relations and criminal justice to governance and international relations.

In Islamic societies under full Sharia, Abla highlights stark contrasts with Western values:
• Treatment of women often reduces them to second-class status.
• Blasphemy laws severely punish criticism of Islam.
• “Eye for an eye” justice replaces due process and individual liberty.
She challenges audiences with a simple question: “Show me one Islamic country where there is real freedom of speech and freedom of religion.” Under genuine Sharia, she warns, “peace” is offered only on the condition of submission—often at gunpoint or swordpoint.

The Difference Between Personal Faith and Political Sharia Ideology
Isik Abla carefully distinguishes between peaceful Muslims practicing their faith privately and the political ideology embedded in Sharia law that seeks dominance. She emphasizes that while individuals deserve respect and love, the expansionist goals of Sharia pose real risks to homeland security, religious freedom in the United States, and constitutional liberties.
Many Muslims, she notes, will openly admit they are “not good Muslims” if they have not killed or died in the name of Allah—revealing the high bar of devotion demanded by core Islamic teachings under Sharia. This insight underscores why stealth jihad and cultural shifts worry her deeply.
“Media Jihad” and Stealth Jihad: How Perception Is Being Shaped in the West
One of Abla’s most urgent warnings involves what she calls “media jihad”—the strategic repetition in Western media that “Islam is a religion of peace,” while downplaying doctrines calling for global Islamic dominance. She explains that some in the West are being disarmed by this messaging.
Complementing this is stealth jihad: the long-term effort by some Muslims in the West to blend in, use permissible deception (taqiyya) for a greater purpose, and gradually shift culture, laws, and public opinion toward Sharia compliance. Abla urges Americans to recognize these tactics not out of hatred, but out of a desire to preserve the freedoms that allowed her own escape and transformation.
Why Isik Abla Believes the West Remains Dangerously Naïve
Having survived abuse, extremism, and near-death under Islamic ideology, Isik Abla speaks with authority and compassion. She views the West’s reluctance to examine Sharia’s realities as naïve and potentially catastrophic for future generations. Her message is clear: ignoring the political and legal ambitions of Sharia endangers the very freedoms—speech, religion, and equality—that define America.
At the same time, her delivery remains bold yet loving. She calls Christians and civic leaders to engage Muslims with both truth and compassion, sharing the hope she found in Christ.
Isik Abla Ministries: A Global Voice for Freedom and the Gospel
Today, Isik Abla serves as a sought-after speaker, author, and broadcaster. Her programs reach millions in the Muslim world, offering an authentic testimony from someone who lived inside the system she now critiques. She regularly briefs churches, civic groups, and media outlets on Islamic ideology, Christian persecution, and effective ways to share the Gospel.
Her story—from the mosques of Turkey to ministry platforms touching six continents—embodies the power of redemption and the importance of defending freedom.
Sharia law and its implications for America deserve honest discussion. Isik Abla’s unique perspective as a former Muslim who escaped jihad and embraced Christ makes her a vital voice in conversations about Islamic ideology, religious freedom, national security, and the future of Western civilization.
