Is it a duty for able Muslim men to implement shariah in whatever country they are in?
Brothers have told me it is obligatory.

1Yes, and one part of shariah is to respect local laws and costums in non-muslim countries!– Medi1Saif ♦Commented Jan 19, 2016 at 19:54

The thing is rather that the understanding and implementation of sharia differ from place to place and from time to time. For instance, in sharia, going against the laws of a country you visit is forbidden, because you break the promise that you made to them when you visit their country. Muslims should not break a promise. If the country tells you that it's ilegal to eat halal meat and it's against their laws (because of the halal slaughter) then you are obligated to eat other than meat OR move to another country. If it's forbidden to pray and such then you should move and not live there.– KiliseCommented Jan 20, 2016 at 15:56
