Can't do it.
As every single nation that is under shariah law, does not allow women to vote. Not only that, the birth of girls is not recorded. Nor are "honor" killings punished.
(for those of you who don't know, an "honor" killing takes place when a girl is raped. The rapist is not punished or killed, the girl is. You see in thier society, if a woman is raped, it must be her fault. Not only is she killed, but her killer (usually a close family member, father, brother or cousin) is not only not punished, but he is praised for restoring the family "honor". And any and all traces of the woman in question are destroyed. Photos, letters, posessions, anything that could remind anyone that she existed at all. Nice huh?)
EDIT.
For those of you who think Saudi Arabia, think again. S.A. is NOT under full Shariah law. Only certain regions. And in those regions, women fare little better than dogs.

yes I will,
what about Egypt ?
It's ruled by Islamic "Shariah" as the constitution says that the Islamic Shariah is the source of laws.
and women there are allowed to vote .
as a matter of fact ,the number of women who vote there is increasing over time , and the government encourages women to vote.

without mantioning any country , i'm an intellectual muslim and i am telling you that the right to vote is not forbidden by islamic shariaa to women , ... i dare you to tell me about even one islamic very traditional and extreme school who say islam diapprove the woman to vote in elections .
you have to know that till the mid twenteeth century , many west europe or maybe america were preventin women from voting , it's a proplem of culture , not of religion , most of such countries are not civilized enough yet to accept that ,, it is something like a culture of tribes , so that doesn't have anything with religion ( unless you can see in OUR RELIGION something we can't understand , like you find something is forbidden where we dont see it like that , if that is it , just teach us about it )

Hamas has threatened to use Shariah law in Palestine, but they have a few other problems to attend to first.

When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her. And if the slave girl's owner arranges for her to marry his son, he may no longer treat her as a slave girl, but he must treat her as his daughter. If he himself marries her and then takes another wife, he may not reduce her food or clothing or fail to sleep with her as his wife. If he fails in any of these three ways, she may leave as a free woman without making any payment. (Exodus 21:7-11 NLT)
"Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, as christ also is the head of the church, he himself being the savior of the body. But as the church is subject to christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything." (Ephesians 5:22-24)
"Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression." (1 Timothy 2:11-14)
• "Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church." (1 Corinthians 14:34)
