SO WHAT SYSTEM DO WE NEED?
-
Hi,
I am not a politician so excuse me if i say something wrong here. I was just wondering what sort of system we really need. Some people say we need an Islamic system. Is there such as system here today? Maybe there was a system made by Muslims before which was successful in the past, such as in Spain. Today there are people who want to have an Islamic government, however I think that we should consider the best from all the systems, such as from socialism, communism, capitalism etc, etc and refer them to the Quran to see what really in them are appropriate. I have also been reading some history of WW1 and found what Mustafa Kamal did was very useful to safe the Muslims at that time from evil powers around them. It was great to get rid of all the traditional mullahs and historic Islamic traditions, which were rusted and useless at that time. I think we should take the best from today?s systems and governments and incorporate that into our lives, rather than sticking to the myth of an Islamic system/government.
Any comment? Please correct me if I am wrong.
Peace.

IMO, Islam is a way of life, and a means of being close to God. It is not a political system. Islam and politics don't mix. If you keep insisting on mixing the two, you will lose both Islam and politics.
Peace.

Peace be upon you,
Islam and politics don't mix
It better D The system of peacefulness is a WHOLEISTIC system, everything falls underits umbrella, politics, economics, education, philosophy, psychology, etc.
We need a WHOLEISTIC System of politics where we find solutions that do not cause other problems.

Hi all,

I agree.
Religion is most often associated with 'beliefs', which may or may not meet logic. And when religion is mixed up with politics, it leads to compulsion of those beliefs.In my opinion, religion should be practised as each being's relationship with God and his way of life etc.
We cant force our beliefs on to an other.
Clearly, beliefs even of the same religion differ so much. This forum is a good example of that. Though many here discuss Islam and Quran, there are different understandings and different beliefs over every issue.When religion(with a set of beliefs) is made a political system, It will end up in '' beliefs of those in power'' being forced down on all. This is what's happening in the so called 'Islamic' nations. Even if people dont exactly agree with those beliefs(of Islam held by those in power), the people are forced to live by them. Saudi is a good example, I guess.
Instead if moral standards are upheld by adequate legislation, based on logic, people of all religion and faith can live in peace as humans in equality and yet live their own religion. So, that way u have a good political system as well as religious freedom.
Peace!
