All four of the major historical, traditional, and authoritative Sunni schools of Islamic jurisprudence and the one major shia school hold fast to this political goal. [MSIAP, 2007]

[3x-Sharia-Law-PP-Slides- LB.PPT]17 SELECTED QUOTE (3) This world wide domination is to be accomplished in the first instance by persuasion. This is the effort to convert the infidels to Islam peacefully. If this does not work, the Muslim people or Ummah as a collective obligation, and according to some interpretations, as an individual one, are to wage Jihad or struggle to more forcefully persuade the infidels to convert. If persuasion is not effective, the Jihadists are to force the non-Muslims to submit to subjugation (known today as dhimmitude) [MSIAP, 2007]
