Dear brother, YOU are the one who is sure Quran has it all. So give me the verses from the Quran which show how to select a constitutional body.
Interesting. I think and I do not know.

Please read carefully Islamic Constituion by Layth. Also read G. A. Pervaiz article on tolueislam.com or tolueislam.org. Selection of Constition committee must be done by the head of the state consists of Qur'an scholars. There must be very well qualified scholars of the book sincere and honest.

KGB , when YOU tell me something, the it is YOUR responsibility to prove what you are saying. Im asking you something very specific. EXPLICITLY SPECIFIC. How does the Quran asks us to choose a constitutional. This is NOT EVEN THE BEGINNING of running a country. This does not even make up 1%. But YOU bring me the verses which EXPLICITLY address this issue.

Its not my responsibility to make you understand Qur'an
Plz dont kid yourself. You cant prove your own statment. Why would ANYONE give you responsibility to make us understand Quran? And no one has asked you to make me understand Quran. I asked you to prove what you posted. You made a statment and now you cant back it up. But i will give you another chance. I think asking you to prove your entire post is just too much for you right now. So lets go point by point.
YOU SAID Qur'an gives us the system all we have to define how we are going to select the head of state.
Ok. Show me the verses from the Quran that tell us how we select a head of state.

Qur'an command us to implement the Laws of Allah Taala when he grants us the power on the piece of land.My brother, you have arrived. Thank you for being patient in this thread and now your patience is rewarded.
I think you are mistaken in attributing the above quote to me. Therefore I am still travelling! according to your definition.
I think jaxal has implified the whole discussion. If all are in agreement why dont we deal with one point at time. Before we can discuss invidual laws in the Quran why dont we start at the beginning and decide how we, or anyone else for that matter ( I am willing to be educated), are going to implement these laws.
Let us begin with
YOU SAID Qur'an gives us the system all we have to define how we are going to select the head of state.
Above question is so simple that even a simpleton like me can understand it. So come on you very clever intellectuals who find every thing easy please answer in a simple form so people like me can understand.

Lets stick to the discussion at hand. You made a statment. Now its time to back it up. You said
Qur'an gives us the system all we have to define how we are going to select the head of state.
now you said
I can give you the reply to how to select the head of state
Alright. Using ONLY AND ONLY the verses of the Quran, show me and stillearning how we will select the head of state. And remember this is only point 1. There are 2 more to go.

All i have done is ask you to answer a simple question. There is no reason to be angry about it. Well not as far as i can see. You made a statment. Now all im asking of you is to prove that statment using the Quran. Why should it anger you? If at the moment, you dont have a suitable answer then PLZ take your time in compiling an adequate answer. In anycase, you dont have to answer ME. stillearning also asked the same question. But again, if you belive that at the moment you cannot prove your statment, then no rush. The forum isnt going anywhere. This thread isnt going anywhere. Neither am i D

No more discussion with you. You bring anger in me. I will answer if MQuran ask this question. He will understand what I am saying. You will not understand at all.
Would you answer if I asked you the same question. I will try my best to understand. Obviousouly we cant all be as intelligent as MQuran but I promise I will try my best to undestand as I think it is one of the most crucial question facing followers of the Quran.

The import point here is to understand the simple concept that Qur'an did not tell us how to elect the head of state by democratic elections. The democratically elected leaders are the biggest SOBs who are liars murderers. Democratically elected leaders of the world have killed millions of innocent people for the sake of power and material gains. Refer to Vietnam War, Korean War, the so called War on Terrorism.
Qur'an tells us that God will place the rulers on us. It is the responsibility of these rulers to implement the God laws on earth. It really doen't matter how the ruler get into power but it becomes his responsibility to implement the laws of God Almighty when they are granted power. All the present rulers have this responsibility. They can't implement the true Qur'anic laws because all the Sharia is corrupted by hearsay and the majority of Sunnis and Shias will turn against anyone who try to speak the truth.
The system of selecting could be improvised once we reach that stage. My understanding is different than MQuran.

NOW
Qur'an tells us that God will place the rulers on us
BEFORE
Qur'an gives us the system all we have to define how we are going to select the head of state.
So which one is it? Is it US who select the head of state or is it God who puts a ruler on earth? roll . Even leaving that aside, who is our ruler now? and if we dont have one, the what the hell are we supposed to do while we wait for the holy highness to arrive? ?

Apolgies as no offence intended but reading your post and mqurans, it would appear that you both have no concept or any understanding how a society, country works or has worked in the past. The vagueness with which you guys write is truly breathtaking. Like jaxal i am too exacerbated with people like you and mquran because you guys bring Islam into disrepute (please dont use this as an excuse to star another discussion on meaning of Islam). The only reason he probably appears short tempered is because has had much longer to put up with so many vague completely illogical points raised by people like yourself.
You guys might know the words of the Quran but from what you write it is patently obvious that you can barely comprehend never mind understand these words.
The number of times the contradictions appear is phenomenal and there is not even a hint of sorry I got that one wrong, but the point is almost ignored as it was not even raised.
I suggest you carefuly put your posts, and those that agree with you, togather and invent a game caleed 'spot the contradictions' it will keep you occupied for considerable length of time. Oh yes! also see if you can actually yourself understand what you have written.

The problem with you guys is that you deney the clear verses of Qur'an to stick with the popular sologan Democracy is Good instead of analyzing the system.
No you prove to me why is this so called democratic system is good for the society.
I agree with G. A. Pervaiz following
Quranic Laws
I will ignore the personal comments you made in your lack of understanding of the message.
PS Also read Islamic Constitution by Layth.
