A popular new law that bars Oklahoma courts from considering Islamic law, or Shariah, when deciding cases was put on hold Monday after a prominent Muslim in the state won a temporary restraining order in federal court.

Two state legislators were quick to blast the judge's ruling and the Oklahoma attorney general, who they said did not stand up to support the new law.

U.S. District Court Judge Vicki Miles-LeGrange ruled that the measure, which passed by a large margin in last Tuesday's elections, would be suspended until a hearing on Nov. 22, when she will listen to arguments on whether the court's temporary injunction should become permanent.

Bill Clinton strikes again!

When a conservative judge appointed by a Republican issues a ruling I don't agree with would "GOP Strikes Again" be a logical argument?

This law is honestly very stupid. From a social Conservative Christian this law sucks and its supporters amaze me.

This Law also blocked International Law from being enforced in Oklahoma courts too.

Still stupid?

Not a necessary law. But then again I believe the people of Oklahoma should make that decision - and 70% of them thought it was valid VS 1 judge who thought it wasn't valid.

Who wins that argument? I guess the judge in this case...
