Re: ISLAM as complete code of life
I admit I don't have extensive knowledge about Islam. But I would say that Islam is NOT a complete code of life. While it may claim to be, I just can't see it practically. For example, economics, NO interest? how does the system work without interest? Ofcourse excessive interest should be banned but disallowing any interest at all is just not practical.
Re: ISLAM as complete code of life
I am not sure if i understand your question, but this is something that came up in a tv programe.
The famous or infamous scholar Mr Ghamidi, stated in his programme that Islam never claimed to be a complete code of life, this is a statement that has come up much later.
This reminded me of a Hadith about a companion who was sent to be ruler/amir of an area by Prophet pbuh and was asked how would you rule the people, he said by Quran, asked if you don't find a ruling in Quran, answered then i will look for it in Sunnah, asked, if not found in Sunnah then, answered, then i will do "Ijtihad".
Now i am not sure of exact "mutn" or content of Hadith but thats what it roughly is. (I wonder if somene could find it and write here).
Does this not mean that not every thing is described in Quran and Hadith and some things have been left to people's judgement? Now there is a vaklid counter-argument that Ijtihad is considered part of Islam. However, this is teh part that is not directly sent to us by Allah.
Give your opinions.
^Actualy this was asked by another person frm me and i failed to convince him and answer him in effecient way because i was of thinking that islam claims to b a perfect in guiding u abt all ways of life.
Now if ghamidi is correct then whole discussion that islam is perfect code of life, stops.
Re: ISLAM as complete code of life
The answer requires lots of details. I suggest that you listen to Doctor Israr Ahmed's lectures. He talks about Islam being religion as well a offers a complete socio-political guidline
Re: ISLAM as complete code of life
Islam gives basic building blocks. Like Legos. You are given pieces and general and specific guidance. You build your own toy from available pieces.
The claim that Islam provides everything for life is not in literal sense.

i agree! the current economic system gave us not a thing to worry about
