Is it permissible for a Muslim to be a judge in a non-Muslim country?

Answer

It is absolutely haraam to be a judge in a non-Muslim country as well as in all Muslim countries in this age. Judges have to dispense 'justice' in terms of kuffaar law. The Qur'aan states: "Those who do not decree according to that (Shariah) which Allah has revealed, verily they are kaafiroon."
