    Born-againif the Quran is enough to run a country why did (and still do) civilizations under Shariah law mostly rule from sources outside of the Quran?

    Hello ? How did Shariah come into this? Do you know where you are in cyberspace, friend ?

    if the Quran was a handbook for running a country then we certainly wouldn't need sunnah, fiqh or other human made laws to complete the country's constitution.

    Sigh..Sunnah, fiqh and all the other made up stuff is DIRECT CONTRADICTION to Quranic Law. Have you actually looked at this or what? It was never meant to 'COMPLETE' the country's constitution but to 'SUBVERT'. Why do you think that NOT A SINGLE element of Sharia law comes from Al-quraan?

      this discussion is really tiring........I can see that there will be another type of fanatic group emerging in the near future within this God Alone concept.......

      What an unfair remark. It's ok for you to completely overlook al-quraan in your discourse and when people like myself seek evidence, we're branded as 'fanatics' pejoratively? What's a fanatic anyway ? A guy excessively into his ideology? You don't think Al-quraan warrants this kind of devotion? In that case, I don't think you fit in well with it, dude.

        U are right, Shamsul. I can sense it coming too. And its ''Quran alone'' and not God alone.

          secular or circular?

          Sadly, trying to be too clever necessitates ( a little ) cleverness. As usual, quippy and never actually addressing the point, that's Mehdi.

            I agree. A friend told me something beautiful the other night.

            "you dont read God, you feel God"

            I still think the messege of the quraan, is wonderful, but the importent thing is our belive in God.

                  Hi Lotetree,

                  Hey this voting thing - do you think it will catch on? wink

                  I think its a better way to get everyone's views coz many do not participate in the forum discussions becoz of the all the nonsense that comes with it etc. Some others prefer reading the discussions than participating.
                  So, It will be good to know what all people out here, think on the subject, through a poll.

                  I dont know if it will catch up but yeah, I hope many participate so that we can know what everyone's views are.

                      Your initiative is proof of your bias. Look at your wording
                      'religious legislation in all countries according to the religion of majority'.

                      Is al-quraan promoting a RELIGION?

                      Devious, PM, real devious.

                      Al-quraan promotes ad-deen al-islaam , the servitude to Allah alone, through the obedience of his laws. You''re not a muslim unless you submit to His Laws. However, you would ask the approval of al-kuffar before you serve Allah?

                      Never will al-yahood or an-nasara be satisfied with thee unless thou follow their form of religion. Say "The Guidance of God,-that is the (only) Guidance." Wert thou to follow their desires after the knowledge which hath reached thee, then wouldst thou find neither Protector nor helper against God. (2/120)

                      Al-quraan predicted your attitude before you even concieved it.

                        brother mquran...dont be offended pls.....I didnt mention anyones name here...so pls dont take it over you. I have just made a prediction and I am focusing on the mind set..not the Quranic teaching.

                        If I didnt accept Quran to be guiding book than I wouldnt be in this forum for yearssss........I am just focusing on the pattern which we should be aware of. We should always ask ourselve if we are getting obsessed with something or not. In my opinion Obsession about God is also harmful and can deviat us from sound judgement.

                        sorry if I offended you...

                          Dangerous indeed this democracy thing might catch on and what might that lead to Choice for the people, better living standards, freedom to practice their faith or lack of it etc. Very dangerous indeed.

                              Exactly! This is what Quran advocates. Quran does not says ANYWHERE to use itself to run a country. The quran, quite simply put it, is not capable to be used to run a country.

                                  I meant the Quran is NOT enough and appropriate for running countries.

                                  Waanzalna ilayka alkitaba bialhaqqi musaddiqan lima bayna yadayhi mina alkitabi wamuhayminan AAalayhi faohkum baynahum bima anzala Allahu wala tattabiAA ahwaahum AAamma jaaka mina alhaqqi likullin jaAAalna minkum shirAAatan waminhajan walaw shaa Allahu lajaAAalakum ommatan wahidatan walakin liyabluwakum feema atakum faistabiqoo alkhayrati ila Allahi marjiAAukum jameeAAan fayunabbi-okum bima kuntum feehi takhtalifoona

                                  538 And We have sent down to you the Scripture with truth, authenticating what is present of the Scripture and superseding it. So judge between them by what God has sent down, and do not follow their desires from what has come to you of the truth. For each of you We have made laws, and a structure; and had God willed, He would have made you all one nation, but He tests you with what He has given you; so strive to do good. To God you will return all of you, and He will inform you regarding that in which you dispute.

                                  Do you think that if the Quran was revealed in 20th century it would have the same laws for adulters for example, whipping?

                                    Khi- Salam. Yes public lashing is the best punishment especially when done today infront of the media so that the whole world could see. That would humiliate the person to an extent that he would never dare do it again. Infact Arnold Schwarzenegger called for a law in california for thieves to stand in the midst of people in the city with a sign board saying "I USED TO STEAL" so yes these rules are perfectly good for space age and even the multi dimensional age if it were to come. The Qurans Law is Univeral unless specified otherwise i.e. if GOD says in Quran like "we forbade FOR THE JEWS..." or "we made the sabbath for the Jews". GOD Bless!

                                        Khi- Salam. Yes but NOT cutting off completely but to mark them. The Quran gives an example in sura 12
                                        When she heard of their gossip, she invited them, prepared for them a comfortable place, and gave each of them a knife. She then said to him, "Enter their room." When they saw him, they so admired him, that they CUT THEIR HANDS.* They said, "Glory be to GOD, this is not a human being; this is an honorable angel."

                                        *1231 This is the same word used in 538 regarding the hand of the thief, and the sum of sura and verse numbers (12+31 and 5+3 are the same. Therefore, the thief's hand should be marked, not severed as practiced by the corrupted Islam (see Footnote 53.

                                        The king said, "Bring him to me." When the messenger came to him, he said, "Go back to your lord and ask him to investigate the women who CUT THEIR HANDS. My Lord is fully aware of their schemes."

                                        Mathematical Proof Supports Quranic Justice

                                        The thief, male or female, you shall mark their hands* as a punishment for their crime, and to serve as an example from GOD. GOD is Almighty, Most Wise.

                                        *538 The practice of cutting off the thief's hand, as decreed by the false Muslims, is a satanic practice without Quranic basis. Due to the special importance of this example, God has provided mathematical proof in support of marking the hand of the thief, rather than severing it. Verse 1231 refers to the women who so admired Joseph that they cut'' their hands. Obviously, they did not cut off'' their hands; nobody can. The sum of sura and verse numbers are the same for 538 and 1231, i.e., 43. It is also the will and mercy of God that this mathematical relationship conforms with the Quran's 19-based code. Nineteen verses after 1231, we see the same word (1250).
