Finish the sentence, "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;...". Enacting sharia would fall under establishment. However, if the Muslim believed any particular law should be approved because he felt religiously obligated to support it, he should be free to base his decision on that. Another law-making can just as easily oppose such law on other grounds. That's democracy. But its a step to far to say that lawmakers should not look to their faith for divine guidance in the performance of their job.
