1. Sharia as in the laws of Islam? Well dubai is categorized as more liberal or modern then religious. The civil is not forced to practice Sharia… like say Hijab for women is not compulsory.. or a thief is not sentenced to loose his/her hands when found guilty in the court. However there are other laws that Dubai court follows which are classified under sharia.
2. A marriage between a Muslim and a non- Muslim is not allowed. Not in the court. Its illegal if done otherwise. If a Muslim guy wants to marry a non- Muslim girl, the girl has to convert herself into a Muslim and is given many of rights, in short is most welcome to be one. However, this converted Muslim after some time (because of unsuccessful marriage or what ever reason) cannot appeal to the court to convert back to her religion, there are serious consequences. Same way, a Muslim girl cannot marry a non Muslim without him converting. On the other hand, not two Muslims can marry without their family’s involvement.
3. Bangladeshis, Indians, Pakis, Sri lankans… many laborers come from there and that way maybe victims of harsh treatment. However racist, Dubai can be at its worst.
4. I have no idea, not that I know anybody personally.
Hope I answered you.
