So I would say the problem is that what Muslims consider to be Sharia is in reality fiqh. No one can fully understand God's law without being God, so for any group of Muslims to say "our system of rules is the one true Sharia" is shirk.

I vaguely remember someone saying that the different schools of Islamic thought (e.g. Hanafi, Hanbali, etc) consider the other schools to be equally valid, even though an individual rule from one school may be at odds with another. I don't know how true this is.

It is absurd to accuse other Muslims of shirk if their interpretation of the Koran if it differs from yours.  

There is a reason why there is more than one school of sharia and more than one branch of Islamic jurisprudence.  

There will always be as many interpretations of the Koran as there are people prepared to promote their interpretation over others.

The best thing to do is for Western nations to adopt the Koran as their constitution and have their own National School of Sharia.
