@sabizak What objective standard are we using to decide which forms of abuse should be legislated against and which should not?

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@husnayn_ Prophet and Sahaba were acting on certainty provided by God. Their actions were grounded in the promise of divine victory. A parallel cant be made by seeing Hazrat Muhammad independent of prophethood

@ayeshaijazkhan WHAT EVEN!!!

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@Taimur_Laal @HashCritical1 Maududi didnt invent political or economic systems, scholars had written abt it before him. What he did was to reframe them to give Islamic politics a central ideological core, systematized it for the modern age, which had existed long before in scattered form

@qaiseraraja Denis noble is actually a physiologist.

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@sabizak @Legoat1322222 It was not a statement about inherent intellectual inferiority. Similarly the fact that women do not pray or fast during menstruation, is a matter of divine instruction to reduce the burden as it is implied in this hadees and not a flaw or shortcoming in their faith...3

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@sabizak @Legoat1322222 I think this hadees as whole clearly tells that the words Naqs here means reduction in duties rather than implying any kind of inferiority. The statement about women being the majority in Hell was not meant as a universal condemnation but rather as a specific admonition....1

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@sabizak @Legoat1322222 Based on observed social behaviors at that time. And that the reference to a womans testimony being equal to half of a mans (in financial matters) is due to social and legal conventions of that era, where women were generally less involved in financial transactions....2

@husnayn_ @Taimur_Laal @LoneWarrior0926 The Quran outline broad principles such as justice , consultation , and accountability, but they do not prescribe a fixed political structure or legal system.

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@LoneWarrior0926 @Taimur_Laal @husnayn_ Different jurist from different sects & schools of thought interpret divine law differently, leading to inconsistencies. No legal system, whether secular or religious, is immune to interpretational challenges. What matters is how disagreements are resolved.

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@LoneWarrior0926 @Taimur_Laal @husnayn_ How does a religious state ensure accountability?

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@LoneWarrior0926 @husnayn_ @Taimur_Laal Corruption and abuse are human tendencies, not exclusive to secular or religious systems.

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@LoneWarrior0926 @husnayn_ @Taimur_Laal Such actions should not be conflated with secular governance principles, just as historical atrocities committed by religious leaders shouldn't be blamed on religion itself.

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@LoneWarrior0926 @husnayn_ @Taimur_Laal Plus these decisions were not made in the name of secularism but rather in pursuit of national interests, however misguided they might have been.

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@LoneWarrior0926 @husnayn_ @Taimur_Laal The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan faced widespread public criticism in the US and around the world. Many leaders involved faced political backlash, and these events are debated openly. In contrast imagine if it was done in the name of religion. How many would have called it wrong.

@billah_313 @qaiseraraja Uper kon bithaye ga? Agar majority musalman ghair muslim ko vote dena chah rahay ho, phir??

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@husnayn_ @Taimur_Laal @LoneWarrior0926 Sovereignty resides with the people, not an individual ruler or cabinet. And the laws are not arbitrary creations of rulers but reflect universal ethical principles of justice, equality, and freedom. Religious rulers lead to greater abuse of pwr when rulers claim divine authority

[Talha Kamal @Talhacch61]

@LoneWarrior0926 @husnayn_ @Taimur_Laal Many religious states (historically and presently) have faced corruption despite rulers claiming divine authority. The issue is not secularism or religion but the absence of accountability mechanisms.
