Sharia or Secularism- Discussion شریعت یا سیکولرزم - مکالمہ

An interesting discussion about "Sharia or Secularism" (no state interference on religious matters, being a private affair of citizens) took place at WhatsApp Group. Dr.SM(USA) a senior scientist (Phd) who had worked at the White House as advisor the US President and also served at many high profile appointments (retired), a close friend of AAK was the originator of discussion, here are Excerpts:-
Dr.SM (USA), wrote: Yaara (Dear Friend) I am honestly worried about Pakistan. My background is only purely American politics, which is played never for total individual gains only . The betterment of the country and nation is a complete focal point . This element is completely missing from Pakistani politics . I have learned to oppose never for the sake of being a part of opposition and have been in the other side of the isle many times. But despite of it I have learned only to speak in a just full manner, irrespective of my personal point of view. This is we need in Pakistan. IK that I supported whole heartedly has a miserable failure. This is sad. He has corrupts surrounding him, his personal honesty can’t carry Pakistan much longer. But this is equally true of the pml N and ppp. May god h…
[0:38 pm, 01/01/2022] SMK (USA): Or a real Islamic country in real sense are the two options . Add on to my message above from a different board. Pakistan needs a most stern action against corruption. These are gifts of colonial era we r holding onto . It’s easy to find solutions in a debate but in practice those are r all null and void . By secular I mean religion to be a personal matter, and by Islamic I mean , not Taluban style but like hazrat Omer bin khattab , just a clarification . Happy new year my friends ♥️♥️♥️♥️🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺 [0:33 pm, 01/01/2022] 
AAK wrote: Anyone may agree with you,  but majority wont , here in Pakistan word "Secular" means "Atheist" ملحد، کافر منکر خدا۔ ( no explanation is accepted)  though these two are different words in dictionary as you explained and clarified. Probably that's the reason Qaid e Azam didn't use word " Secular" all his life , though he had full command over English language.
In nutshell we want a modern progressive Pakistan, based on Quran, where everyone is equal in law and justice prevails. Even if Fatimah bin Muhammad (pbuh) commits crime , she would be punished by law as anyone else. 🌹

AAK: 👍🌹 Mush was a dictator, so Ayoub Khan, no one stays or live for ever,  so all their achievements go by the drain once they leave. 
But had they evolved a stable system , which could have stayed and continue to progress after them , it would have been great achievements. No Gen Washington or De Gual in Pakistan ... We need to learn some lessons from next door neighbor Iran (less Mullah) and China, to make some stable system ..

[1:10 pm, 01/01/2022] AAK:  Atheism is itself a belief system, whereas secularism is a political doctrine. As a doctrine it is supposed to ensure that all perspectives on belief and non-belief can be freely expressed in public life, and indeed that the state is not actively promoting one belief, rather than another, or indeed none at all.

ایتھزم  خود کو ایک عقیدہ  نظام ہے، جبکہ سیکولرزم ایک سیاسی نظریات ہے. ایک نظریہ کے طور پر یہ یقینی بنانا ہے کہ عقیدہ اور غیر عقائد پر تمام نقطہ نظر آزادانہ طور پر عوامی زندگی میں اظہار کیا جاسکتا ہے، اور یقینا یہ ریاست ایک دوسرے کے بجائے ایک عقیدہ کو فروغ دینے میں نہیں بلکہ کوئی بھی عقیدہ بھی نہیں ہے
سیکولر ریاست،  کسی مزہب کا پرچار سپورٹ نہیں کرتی ۔۔ یہ بہت بڑا جھوٹ دھوکہ ہے ۔۔ امریکہ، یورپ ۔۔ کوئی بھی سیکولر نہیں ،
Dr.SM (USA): I know my friend, I stand with minority. But the word secular can be defined in ways, irrespective of the words definition in any dictionary. In Pakistan there are salivating salog and about Islam, mosques are plentiful and are full with Muslims without Islam ( not all) . Which Religion can be more secular then our beloved Islam ??!!! It tells one how to rest against emotions, it has golden principles against Robert, theft and bribery. It has the best principles of the ability of citizens over state, it has freedom of religion and protection of minorities, it has golden rules of governance, it has importance of honesty and integrity. Yes Islam teaches us all above and faith in one God Almighty AST. I would rather follow those than on in pseudo Islam that we have spreading like fungus. No other Religion is close to secularism than holy Islam . It has all the golden rules plus the concept of Allah SWT. That’s all v need .Give issue a deep unbiased look and u will find them all in Islam and secularism, the secularism not by definition but by keeping Islam in its background ♥️♥️♥️🌺🌺🌺

AAK: بش نے کروسیڈ کا لفظ چنا ۔۔۔ یہ سیکولرزم نہیں ۔۔ اسرائیل ۔۔ یورپ کوئی سیکولر  نہیں جرمنی Christian Democratic Party ہاں مزہب کو زرا کم کم ۔۔۔ ہم ہر وقت مزہب مزہب کہتے ہیں لیکن عمل کوئی نہیزن نہ مذہبی،  نہ سیکولر نہ ایتھیسٹ

Prof Dr.GA: Nice message for the New Year. Stern actions come in Islam and also in Socialist backdrop. In western-styled democracy you only have corruption,  beautiful but deceptive slogans, increase of gap between rich and the poor
AAK: It's not my understanding , I am trying to explain the public mindset ... The people have been made to believe these terms in different ways .. which you or me can't change .. so use terms which are acceptable and understandable by people ... ( in Rome Do as Romans do) in Pakistan Secularism means Atheism ... or perceived to be 😁😁😁


AAK: The motto IN GOD WE TRUST was placed on United States coins and notes  because of the increased religious sentiment existing during the Civil War. ... I mean the recognition of the Almighty God in some form on our coin
The Queen and the Church of England
The Sovereign holds the title 'Defender of the Faith and Supreme Governor of the Church of England'. These titles date back to the reign of King Henry VIII, who was initially granted the title 'Defender of the Faith' in 1521 by Pope Leo X. When Henry VIII renounced the spiritual authority of the Papacy in 1534 he was proclaimed 'supreme head on earth' of the Church of England. This was repealed by Queen Mary I but reinstated during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, who was proclaimed 'Supreme Governor' of the Church of England.

AAK:
No secular states ... difference is Christianity has no law or Sharia, while Islam has complete system
We can't be religious like Christians... only worship rituals , we have completes system.. They don't want it ... We can't leave it .. If we do we are no more Muslims
Meaning of Secularism as propagated by our "Islam pasand enthusiasts" is criminal misguidance .
It was a deceptive but attractive slogan to exploit simple Muslims in the name Islam like "Labaik Y R "
To call Secular an Atheist or Meaning it "LA-DIN" is deception ,calling & labeling so many muslim countries who practice secularism LA-DIN or Atheist or Kafir does not give any strength to Islam but weaken the unity of Muslims in the world

Dr.SM (USA)
USA has cores of problems yes it has religious bias, yes it has religious killings , but the form of govt is strictly secular, I have been a part of it, I know better. Selection of statements without background can cause serious side effects in a society . In Islam  Dog is Mukrooh, and in Muslim society people kick and abuse them . So v remember Mukrooh but v forget the order of kindness our prophet pbuh stated wen he observed a dog being kicked. So proper prospective is most impt. This exactly is going on in Pakistan. A body without a rightful soul ( not all ) 🌺🌺🌺

AAK: USA and other EU are secular at micro level but Religious at Macro level .. They can't be more than that , they do not have Law, Shariat, they follow Roman law ..
But Islam has Sharia, Law if we ignore we are not Muslims...
قرآن میں الله کی طرف سے  قانون اور احکامات موجود ہیں ، الله کا فرمان ہے :
جو لوگ اللہ کے نازل کردہ قانون کے مطابق فیصلہ نہ کریں وہی کافر ہیں (قرآن 5:44) 
جو لوگ اللہ کے نازل ک ردہ قانون کے مطابق فیصلہ نہ کریں وہی ظالم ہیں (قرآن 5:46)
جو لوگ اللہ کے نازل کردہ قانون کے مطابق فیصلہ نہ کریں وہی فاسق ہیں (قرآن 5:47) 
https://quransubjects.blogspot.com/2020/08/quran-law.html
قرآن مجید میں تقریباً چھ سو(600)  آیات موجود ہیں جن سےاسلامی قانون کے احکام کی نشاندہی  ہوتی ہے-
ان میں سے تقریباً پانچ سو(۵۰۰) آیات عبادات کے متعلق ہیں اور دیگرآیات سے جرائم،پرسنل لا(انفرادی یا ذاتی قانون)اور دیگرمعاملات کا استدلال حاصل ہوتا ہے-
بالخصوص ستر (۷۰) آیات سے عائلی قوانین، اسی(۸۰)سےتجارت اور مالیاتی(دیوانی نوعیت کے)،تیرہ(۱۳)سے شہادت و قسمتیس (۳۰)سے جرم وسزا(فوجداری نوعیت کے)،دس (۱۰)سے آئینی اور انتظامی معاملات (نظامِ حکومت)پچیس(۲۵) سےبین الاقوامی قانون اور جنگی قیدیوں(صلح وجنگ اور دوسری ریاستوں کے ساتھ  معاہدہ کرنے کے رہنما اُصول  پر مبنی ) کے متعلق احکامات  حاصل ہوتے ہیں،جبکہ باقی آیات   عبادات سے متعلق ہیں‘‘-
We cannot apply their principles on us , it does not fit in here ... 
Yes if we adhere to Islam it provides lot human freedom , respect,  tolerance .... not Islam of Terrorists but real Islam..
Dr.SM (USA)
[1:41 pm, 01/01/2022: My friend this is a pointless defence of Islam , there are secular ( in economic terms) Muslims . Even if u pick and choose principles from secularism/ socialism vs Islam , u will find most in common, except Islam righteously adds on the oneness of Allah SWT. Equal distribution of wealth, treatment of old and poor , how long May v go on are common in Islam and said systems in comparison. Please study Islam at times from economics point of view and u will find out why west has No Islam but has Muslims ( meaning the religious sense)
Or May be the other way around ♥️♥️🌺🌺🌺
AAK:
How can a Muslim be secular in Economic terms , if accept Riba Interest as legitimate? One can differ and debate but it is not consensus view among Muslim jurists. We can't impose will or interpretation of few on all Muslims, leave it to Allah to decide on day of j. 
Verses I quoted from Quran 5:44-47 are clear and unambiguous. 
There can be moderate explanations or extreme bug we can't ignore or deny Quranic verses and also remain Muslim.
Jesus Christ & Law of Moses (Shariah)
Jesus Christ Said:
“Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them. For I tell you truly, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. So then, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do likewise will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever practices and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.[Gospel- Matthew 5:17-20]
Christians have written 23 extra books along with 4 Gospels. 14 Books are attributed to St.Paul, the main architect of Christianity. He cancels the Law of Moses (Sharia), which Jesus Christ was to uphold. 
Paul’s Eleven-Fold Cancellation of the Law
1.These eleven verses from Paul’s letters to the Galatians, the Romans, and the Colossians. The comprehensive cancellation of the Law is one of Paul’s major themes.
2.Galatians 5:18—But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under law.
3.Galatians 3:25—Now that faith has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law.
4.Romans 4:15—The law brings wrath. And where there is no law there is no transgression.
5.Galatians 3:10— All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”
6.Galatians 3:13—Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us.
7.Galatians 5:1—It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
8.Romans 2:12—All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law.
9.Romans 5: 13—Before the law was given, sin was in the world. But sin is not taken into account when there is no law.
10.Romans 6:14—Sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace.
11.Romans 7:8b—Apart from law, sin is dead.
12.Colossians 2:13b-14—He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross.

Dr.SM (USA):
Islam is superb, Islam is ultimate. Islam gave us a way of complete life including constitution, fundamentals of governance, fundamentals of economy, fundamentals of justice system and family values, when people buried their daughters, when the bowed before wooden and stone idols. But  quoting words from holy Quran without its interpretation according to times is unjustified. Cutting hands and heads in those time provided a justice system , but no where it states to keep doing that after 1400 years. The point was the reforming of society and there are new ways now. No where it prohibits in real sense of Islam . Words have meanings and tafseers, now it’s up to individual to look at the words and start doing what was done in early days or try to understand the real meaning. Education is wealth, to gain education is a Jihad. It’s just like meaning of Jihad doesn’t mean attacking and killing Non believers , protecting ur life, ur beliefs, ur health, ur wealth and property is Jihad too in my meager understanding
Dr.SM (USA)
[1:57 pm, 01/01/2022]  If what most of the Muslims are doing is Islam, then there will only b a few in heaven , Allah knows the best and ultimate ♥️♥️♥️
 Following the real spirit behind holy words is important. Following words and quotations from Islam is like holding the book on a spear and demanding it to speak:: well it won’t speak, it’s a book , unless one starts to interpret it in day to day living, and every interpretation is like photo, it has two sides, which one to pick puts us on a righteous path. To me that’s a must .
[Any addicting activity that prevents you from thinking rationally is Mukrooh or Haram, May it be Alchol, smoking, lying, churus, afeem, etc etc . Even food that starts causing u health problems or working to a point where u r unable to justify the Haqqooqs are uncalled for . When Islam says Nasha is haram, my mind thinks all above and much more . Holy Quran is the most modern and realistic and Holy book, but pls don’t take it word by word, rather understand it word by word in times one is living in .

If we expand the discussion in interpretation of Quranic injunctions (Hadood) each one by one its going to be counter productive. If scholars interpret in different way its ok if they have logic and support  form scripture. Difference of opinions or interpretation is acceptable with logic. However others may have different views with logical support. So we leave it as its is .....
However once we talk of democracy and respect of opinion of majority, this is report form PEW Survey: 
Nearly all Muslims in Afghanistan (99%) and most in Iraq (91%) and Pakistan (84%) support sharia law as official law. 
So the liberals , seculars, educated views/ interpretations  are not accepted by people of Pakistan majority.. lets respect their view and try to make adjustments within that framework .. which is not difficult ....
AAK - Translation from Quran (5:44-50)
"......So do not fear the people but fear Me, and do not exchange My verses for a small price. And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are the disbelievers. (44) And We ordained for them therein a life for a life, an eye for an eye, a nose for a nose, an ear for an ear, a tooth for a tooth, and for wounds is legal retribution. But whoever gives [up his right as] charity, it is an expiation for him. And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are the wrongdoers. (45)And We sent, following in their footsteps, Jesus, the son of Mary, confirming that which came before him in the Torah; and We gave him the Gospel, in which was guidance and light and confirming that which preceded it of the Torah as guidance and instruction for the righteous. (46) And let the People of the Gospel judge by what Allah has revealed therein. And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are the defiantly disobedient. (47) And We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming that which preceded it of the Scripture and as a criterion over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth. To each of you We prescribed a law and a method. Had Allah willed, He would have made you one nation [united in religion], but [He intended] to test you in what He has given you; so race to [all that is] good. To Allah is your return all together, and He will [then] inform you concerning that over which you used to differ. (48) And judge, [O Muhammad], between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations and beware of them, lest they tempt you away from some of what Allah has revealed to you. And if they turn away - then know that Allah only intends to afflict them with some of their [own] sins. And indeed, many among the people are defiantly disobedient. (49) Then is it the judgement of [the time of] ignorance they desire? But who is better than Allah in judgement for a people who are certain [in faith]. (Translation Quran 5:50): https://tanzil.net/#trans/en.sahih/5:48

ہم نے توراۃ نازل کی جس میں ہدایت اور روشنی تھی سارے نبی، جو مسلم تھے، اُسی کے مطابق اِن یہودی بن جانے والوں کے معاملات کا فیصلہ کرتے تھے، اور اِسی طرح ربانی اور احبار بھی (اسی پر فیصلہ کا مدار رکھتے تھے) کیونکہ انہیں کتاب اللہ کی حفاظت کا ذمہ دار بنایا گیا تھا اور وہ اس پر گواہ تھے پس (اے گروہ یہود!) تم لوگوں سے نہ ڈرو بلکہ مجھ سے ڈرو اور میری آیات کو ذرا ذرا سے معاوضے لے کر بیچنا چھوڑ دو جو لوگ اللہ کے نازل کردہ قانون کے مطابق فیصلہ نہ کریں وہی کافر ہیں (44) توراۃ میں ہم نے یہودیوں پر یہ حکم لکھ دیا تھا کہ جان کے بدلے جان، آنکھ کے بدلے آنکھ، ناک کے بدلے ناک، کان کے بدلے کان، دانت کے بدلے دانت، اور تمام زخموں کے لیے برابر کا بدلہ پھر جو قصاص کا صدقہ کر دے تو وہ اس کے لیے کفارہ ہے اور جو لوگ اللہ کے نازل کردہ قانون کے مطابق فیصلہ نہ کریں وہی ظالم ہیں (45)پھر ہم نے ان پیغمبروں کے بعد مریمؑ کے بیٹے عیسیٰؑ کو بھیجا توراۃ میں سے جو کچھ اس کے سامنے موجود تھا وہ اس کی تصدیق کرنے والا تھا اور ہم نے اس کو انجیل عطا کی جس میں رہنمائی اور روشنی تھی اور وہ بھی توراۃ میں سے جو کچھ اُس وقت موجود تھا اُس کی تصدیق کرنے والی تھی اور خدا ترس لوگوں کے لیے سراسر ہدایت اور نصیحت تھی (46) ہمارا حکم تھا کہ اہل انجیل اس قانون کے مطابق فیصلہ کریں جو اللہ نے اس میں نازل کیا ہے اور جو لوگ اللہ کے نازل کردہ قانون کے مطابق فیصلہ نہ کریں وہی فاسق ہیں (47) پھر اے محمدؐ! ہم نے تمہاری طرف یہ کتاب بھیجی جو حق لے کر آئی ہے اور الکتاب میں سے جو کچھ اس کے آگے موجود ہے اُس کی تصدیق کرنے والی اور اس کی محافظ و نگہبان ہے لہٰذا تم خدا کے نازل کردہ قانون کے مطابق لوگوں کے معاملات کا فیصلہ کرو اور جو حق تمہارے پاس آیا ہے اُس سے منہ موڑ کر ان کی خواہشات کی پیروی نہ کرو ہم نے تم میں سے ہر ایک کے لیے ایک شریعت اور ایک راہ عمل مقرر کی اگرچہ تمہارا خدا چاہتا تو تم سب کو ایک امت بھی بنا سکتا تھا، لیکن اُس نے یہ اِس لیے کیا کہ جو کچھ اُس نے تم لوگوں کو دیا ہے اس میں تمہاری آزمائش کرے لہٰذا بھلائیوں میں ایک دوسرے سے سبقت لے جانے کی کوشش کرو آخر کار تم سب کو خدا کی طرف پلٹ کر جانا ہے، پھر وہ تمہیں اصل حقیقت بتا دے گا جس میں تم اختلاف کرتے رہے ہو (48) پس اے محمدؐ! تم اللہ کے نازل کردہ قانون کے مطابق اِن لوگوں کے معاملات کا فیصلہ کرو اور ان کی خواہشات کی پیروی نہ کرو ہوشیار رہو کہ یہ لوگ تم کو فتنہ میں ڈال کر اُس ہدایت سے ذرہ برابر منحرف نہ کرنے پائیں جو خدا نے تمہاری طرف نازل کی ہے پھر اگر یہ اس سے منہ موڑیں تو جان لو کہ اللہ نے اِن کے بعض گناہوں کی پاداش میں ان کو مبتلائے مصیبت کرنے کا ارادہ ہی کر لیا ہے، اور یہ حقیقت ہے کہ اِن لوگوں میں سے اکثر فاسق ہیں (49) (اگر یہ خدا کے قانون سے منہ موڑتے ہیں) تو کیا پھر جاہلیت کا فیصلہ چاہتے ہیں؟ حالانکہ جو لوگ اللہ پر یقین رکھتے ہیں ان کے نزدیک اللہ سے بہتر فیصلہ کرنے والا کوئی نہیں ہے (قرآن 5:50)
AAK: These verses don't require interpretation, however some one might have  tried ... if anyone one finds any interpretation with logical support from Quran,  which absolves Muslims, not to follow Law of Quran in changing times, or modify .... please do share ... to add to our knowledge ....

  1. Nobody, not even Prophet can change Quran (Quran;10:15)
  2. Allah’s Words never change.(10:64)
  3. Free from any ambiguity (Quran;18:1-2)
  4. Book with truth, to judge between people in that in which they differed (Quran;2:213)
  5. “This book to provide explanations for everything, and guidance, and mercy, and good news for the Muslims”(Quran;16:89)
  6. Neglected nothing in the Book” (Quran; 6:38)
  7. Verses of established meaning, further explained in detail (Quran;11:1)
  8. These are the revelations of God which We recite to you for a genuine purpose. In what Hadith (statements) other than God’s and His revelations will they then believe? (Quran;45;6)

Prof.Dr.GA, wrote
The PM today in his discussion with the Muslim scholars narrated the experience of Mr. Ishfaq Ahmad that as he was sweating and as he poured water on himself the Chinese ambassador asked him 'why don't you take a sip of water'. And the answer was that he was fasting and feared his Creator. The Chinese Ambassador said that you are a great people who fear a higher force, so you are great people. The PM asked the question to International Muslim Scholars 'how can we become such a nation that fear Allah and pay taxes and follow the law?" In my view the answer is that when we fast we fast to please Allah Karim, so that He writes in our اعمال نامہ that we are His true obedient servants, but we don't have the same relationship with our Government. Everyone knows that the Law is not Islamic and the tax is not Islamic either, most importantly we know that the government is not Islamic government. So the Ummah will never associate itself with the Government as it associates itself with Allah. If Government is following the Sunnah of the Messenger SAW and follows the orders of Quran then people will re-associate themselves with the ruler as the Viceregent of Allah. There is no Islamic Law ,  no Islamic Constitution, no Islamic politics, no Islamic foreign policy, no Islamic economics why should the sons and daughters of the Ummah obey the present rulers of Muslim countries. Muslims can be excellent Muslims in their individual lives because they will be rewarded by Allah SWT. But in collective lives, following the order of ruler's secular law will mean following people's wishes and desires not that of Allah SWT.
AAK
This important fact should be brought out to the notice of PM and the Finance Minister / FBR who keep on crying that people don't pay taxes but are highest in Charity donations ...
"The World Giving Index has ranked Pakistan as 91th most generous country out of 144 nations. While the Stanford Social Innovation Review reported that when it comes to charitable giving, Pakistan is a generous country, and it contributes more than one per cent of its Gross Domestic Product to charity." Another study conducted by Pakistan Centre for Philanthropy shows that Pakistanis give around Rs240 billion (more than $2 billion) annually to charity.
Dr.SM (USA)
It’s not changing (naooz O billah) it’s interpretation. To portray Islam using names of Allah SWT as qahaar and jabbar only is unfair to Islam , because he’s also rehman, Kareem also. Islam is kind, loving, peace oriented, just full , believes in live and let live, it’s most modern , it’s most scientific, it’s most progressive and offers the best gifts at the end. Yes I value democracy with my religion Islam , and between the two I cherish later most. I cherish the fact that Islam gave us a method of governance by selection wen elections were not practical, it gave us a form of democracy, but never said one could live in the days of elections over selections. Yes dear I cherish these values ♥️♥️♥️♥️

 اسلامی جمہوریت ایک مکمل جمہوریت ہے اتنی مکمل جتنی کوئی جمہوریت ہوسکتی ہے، البتہ جو چیز اسلامی جمہوریت کو مغربی جمہوریت سے الگ کرتی ہے وہ یہ ہے کہ مغرب کا نظریہ سیاسی 'جمہوری حاکمیت' کا قائل ہے اور اسلام جمہوری خلافت کا-مغربی جمہوریت ایک مطلق العنان خدائی ہے جو اپنے اختیارات کو آزادانہ استعمال کرتی ہے- اس کے برعکس اسلامی جمہوریت ایک پابند آئین بندگی ہے جو اپنے اختیارات کو خدا کی دی ہوئی ہدایات کے مطابق اس کی مقررکردہ حدود کے اندر استعمال کرتی ہے-"  (مولانا مودودی -- اسلامی نظام زندگی اور اس کے بنیادی  تصورات)

"سیاسی کام میں ہمارے لئے سب سے بڑی رُکاوٹ بیوروکریسی اور فوج نے ڈالی۔ ان دونوں کی تربیت انگریز نے کی تھی اور اس تربیت کی بناء پر وہ ہرگز یہاں اسلامی حکومت کا قیام نہیں چاہتے تھے۔ جن لوگوں نے پاکستان بنایا تھا، اُن میں سے انگریز کے پروردہ زمیندار، سرمایہ دار بھی یہاں اسلام کی حکومت نہیں چاہتے تھے۔ ہمارے لئے صرف عوام کا جذبہ ہی رہ گیا تھا جس کو ہم کام میں لا سکتے تھے۔ چُنانچہ ہم نے اس جذبے کو مہم کی شکل میں اُبھارا۔ اس کا نتیجہ یہ ہوا کہ اب تک کسی کو یہ ہمت نہیں ہوئی کہ وہ اس ملک کو ایک سیکولر ریاست بنا سکے"

Differences Islamic Law and Western System
In classical form, the Shari’a differs from Western systems of law (based on Roman Law) being followed by Christians, in two principal respects. In the first place the scope of the Shari’a is much wider, since it regulates man's relationship not only with his neighbors and with the state, which is the limit of most other legal systems, but also with Allah and his own conscience. Ritual practices,(ibadat) such as the daily prayers, almsgiving, fasting, and pilgrimage, are an integral part of Shari’a law and usually occupy the first chapters in the legal manuals. The Shari’a is also concerned as much with ethical standards as with legal rules, indicating not only what man is entitled or bound to do in law, but also what he (obligatory) ought, in conscience, to do (halal), something that is lawful and permitted in Islam, or refrain from doing (haram)  not permissible. Thus the Shari’a is not merely a system of law, but a comprehensive code of behaviour that embraces both private and public activities. The second major distinction between the Shari’a and Western legal systems is the result of the Islamic concept of law as the expression of the ‘Divine Will’. Shari’a law though appears to be rigid in certain aspects but there is room for flexibility in fiqha through Ijtehad  to meet the challenges of growing and changing needs of society. In Islamic jurisprudence it is not the society that moulds and fashions the law, but the law that precedes and controls society, however the legitimate changes and requirements of the modern society are kept in view with in bounds of Divine Will. The Western Law, is not based on the Bible, they have discarded the Law of Moses, which Jesus declared as his mission (Mathew;5:17-20). 
By contrast in the Western Law, it is the society that moulds and fashions the law thus consumption of alcohol, homosexuality, gay marriages (not permitted in Bible) have been made legal, on the desire and public support of the Western Society, where as in Shari’a, it is not possible to make such laws which are unnatural and clearly against the Divine Will, manifested in Qur’an and Sunnah. Keeping in view the importance of Shari’a among the Muslims living in UK; the Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, the most senior figure in the Church of England,  has triggered intense debate by saying that; he considers the introduction of Shari’a law for British Muslims as “unavoidable” because it would help maintain social cohesion; since some Muslims do not relate to the British legal system; many UK Muslims already use Shari’a law in aspects of their day-to-day lives, such as banking and marriage, and the same principle of separate laws could “easily be accepted for other faiths groups”.
