As salamu alay kum,
i want to discuss and put my views across the board regarding man’s ability to organise and govern lifes affairs.From the nature of the word "man"which is derived from the arabic word"insaan"which means ‘the one who forgets’.my conclusion on the world is that we see man in rule and is this the real problem to mans biggest problems and we see the implications of this in reality.
the title "ashraful makhlookat" wasnt just given to us for being 'humans'
neways...we've seen examples of men who ruled tyranically...ie:hitler,stalin,etc.
Slayer, here is the translation of a verse from surah Ar Rum,So set thou thy face steadily and truly to the Faith: (Establish) Allah's handiwork according to the pattern on which He has made mankind: no change (let there be) in the work (wrought) by Allah: that is the standar of Religion: but most among mankind understand not.(30:30)
And here's an explanatory note Yusuf Ali gives with this verse, 'As turned out from the creative hand of Allah, man is innocent, pure, true, free, inclined to right and virtue, and endued with true understanding about his own position in the Universe and about Allah's goodness, wisdom, and power. That is his true nature, just as the nature of the lamb is to be gentle and of a horse is to be swift. But man is caught up in the meshes of customs, superstitions, selfish desires, and false teaching. This may make him pugnacious, unclean, false, slavish, hankering after what is wrong or forbidden, and deflected from the love of his fellow-men and the pure worship of the One True God. The problem before the Prophets is to cure this crookedness, and to restore human nature to what is should be under the Will of Allah.'
so slayer what are you trying to say that we should not live under the rules an laws of bill clinton and tony blair.how could the world surviev with out a democratic system.
shurly you are miss guieded islam is not about politics rather it tells us how to be spirietule.
P.S please reply
g.c.
