Well I’m not disagreeing with you, is sharia law in practise there the way it should be? Do women have the freedom that Allah has given them? Are all citizens treated like brothers and sisters? No.

I agree that the government is terrible, it’s a corrupt system and needs to be changed. That doesn’t mean that the Islamic system needs changing only that they need to be implemented properly. Islam does not justify women being battered or people going hungry or people being raped and murdered, in fact it teaches the exact opposite of that.

Sharia did not fail, it is the power crazed corrupt leaders that have failed to implement it properly, it is the failure of our Islamic scholars who have not stood up against the government that calls itself as Islamic republic yet does not possess any of it qualities. The law of God doesn’t need changing or modifying, it is perfect in itself, however the way it’s implemented needs changing. You mention sharia law and people think of beheading and cruel acts yet if you see the scholars who study it, their interpretations are widely different. there was actually a fatwa against death row, so let’s not blame Islam, maybe just maybe it’s our own fault.

Pakistan is an Islamic state but right now just by name, not by the way it’s governed or the way the citizens are suffering, we should have faith in the religion sent to us rather than conforming to the secularist views because it makes you more ‘madran’ and ‘liberal’.

As I said above, useless to argue with Cyber Jihadis. Islam is not barbaric, FAR FROM IT! Its a religion of peace and and places EXTREME EMPHASIS on HUMANITY. However, the interpretation of Islam that is followed my most in countries like Pakistan means that the imposition of Shariah would only push the country off the cliff on whose edge it has stood for so.

I think the Western countries like UK and France are as close to Shariah as you can get. Weird opinion, I accept, but think about it. They have three main things that an Islamic state is supposed to have: Justice, Welfare and Tolerance.
