Pretty sure if that's the case it's not protected by the first admendment. If a Muslim wants Sharia law that's pretty radical honestly, and they should be allowed in the country if they are trying to get in, and should be on a watch list of they're already in.

As far as I know, marriage is limited to sexual maturity. Having your hand cut off can be a punishment for some crimes, but it is rarely  practiced and more symbolic of a punishment. 

That said, Sharia covers things like dietary practices, rules on how and when to worship (praying and their pilgrimage to Mecca), hygiene rules, and charity. Really radical stuff that shouldn't be protected by the 1st Amendment.
