Mr. Jah, WHile I admire your evangelism for Islam, I share with you that in all nations, the truth is the constitution of the peoples and their attendant ammendments. Allah has provided for that in the Qur'an and Sunnah. And the disclaimer, Lakum deenikum walyadeen, is the lifeblood of the Shariahs of nations who adopt Shariah as their constitution. Even then, it is not Shariah unless ratified by the most of their qualitative numbers and ammended in due regard to extraneous populations as to religion. Wa maa Tafarraqoo iLLa min Ba'adi Maa Jaa'A humul Elmu, Baqyah bainahum wa-lawlaa Kalimatun sabaqat min rabbika illaa Ajalin Musammaa, laqudiya bainahum. wa-Inna Lletheena Oorethoo-l Kitaaba min ba'Adihim Lafee Shaa'Inn minhu mureebin. Fa-lithaalika Fa-Ad'U wa-Astaqim kamaa Umirrta, waLaa Ta-tTabi'e Ahwaa-Ahum; waqul; Aamantu Bimaa Anthala Llaahu min kitaabin, wa-Umirtu Li-A'Adila bainakumoo. Allahu Rabbunaa wa-Rabbukum. lanaa A'amaalunaa walakum A'amaalukum; Laa hujjata bainanaa wabainakumoo. Allaahu yajma'U bainanaa, wa-Ilayhil Maceeru. Haruna. Revealed to Muhammad in Mecca as message to Meccans, mainly the Hunafaa, of whom Muhammad had been one himself. What I intended to share was that law is audience-specific even if religion might not be. (It will take a lot of time to convince one that religion is also people-specific, and I don't have that time). However, in Allah's infinite wisdom, he has established this impression in Muhammad that he ought not transgress on other peoples and their laws unless they be heathens and do not believe in creation and ecological equilibrium. Therefore they pillaged the earth, ravaged the peoples, sans compunction and contrition. I do however appreciate your regard of Shariah as law for you. That issues only from these and those conflations. MQJGDT. Darbo. In a message dated 5/29/2009 11:51:56 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [log in to unmask] writes: Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wasallam) said: “Judges are of three types, two of them will go to the Hellfire and one type will go to Paradise. The one who knows the truth and judges with it – he is in Paradise. One who knows the truth but doesn’t judge by it, will go to Hellfire. The one who doesn’ t know the truth and judges between people with ignorance, will go to the Hellfire.” [Abu Daud, Tirmidhi] What the truth is, is determined by Allah (subhana wa ta’ala). He has spelt it out for us in the Shariah, that is the Quran and Sunnah. If a person passes judgment according to his or her own standards of right and wrong, rather than what Allah has declared as right or wrong, then that judge is judging with ignorance.
