Abstract

The article discusses the reported efforts to facilitate the reunification of children and parents through religion as of 2014, focusing on terminations of parental rights in America and U.S. state laws regarding Sharia law and international law. The legal rights of Muslims in America are mentioned, along with the U.S. Constitution's Establishment Clause and an alleged Anti-Sharia Movement in the U.S. America's foster care system and the best interest of the child legal standard are examined.
