Re: Voting allowed in Islam
Yes, ! As people are told, this is what written in books; they started saying, “we don’t believe in these books, these books are written by their enemies or some pages were inserted into these books against these kings from their enemies” And finally they say we don’t accept any of these books; we believe only in Quran. They think that we are giving Quran and these books the same status in Islamic research work. Or they think that Quran is praising their kings.
These books are writing by same religious leader who preserved their Deen, wrote lots of books on different other subjects like fiqh, Tafseer, hadith. But when they come to history they simply deny it because it goes against their kings. They don’t see lots of Ullema were poisoned and martyred by them. These were the same emperors about whom the Prophet said:
*“The Children of Umayad shall ascend to my pulpit. I have seen them in my dreams jumping on my pulpit like monkeys.” *
Then the Prophet said that the following verse was revealed about the Umayad :
“And We made that dream, which We have shown you, only as a test to the people and the cursed tree in the Quran. And We warn them but it only increases their extreme transgression!”(17:60)
