My sincere questions to the prominent same Sunni Muslim scholars who have gathered to discuss about ISIS. I wonder which Middle East country has implements the complete Sharia Law without mixing politics & culture in to it ?? isnt that violating Sharia then ?? Im just confused how can the sharia be violated to one sect of people who fighting against the oppression of the Muslims & not to others who are living an un-islamic luxurious life style also lavishing the money to all worldly material pleasure with so much of pride in it but not at all bothered about the oppressed Muslims who are killed across the globe ?? Doha, Qatar or other M.E countries they state as they practicing Sharia Law but are they really doing it is the bigger question but just acting as they are following the real sharia isnt that a big violation in Sharia & Allah has given the financial strength to Doha, Qatar & to other M.E countries why dont they implement it whats stopping them not to do it ??? Ok lets say M.E countries were deceived all this years by listening to the West & to the American (behind the American its Zionist) why dont this M.E countries wake up now at least & get together to implement the sharia in their own countries immediately effective now ?? Also take real action against the killing & oppression of the Muslims in Palestine, Uighur, Burma, Kashmir etc....... ?? Doha, Qatar is going to spend 138 Billion for hosting the world cup in their country when most of countries are in poverty & hunger isnt this a big violation in the sharia ??? why dont the same Islamic Prominent Sunni Muslim scholars talk against this kind of many lavish spending by the M.E countries ??? Islam is pure justice system & against any injustice to any human kind let it be non Muslims or animals also in the Quran & Hadith it has been clearly mentioned in many places against injustice. Below Quran verses & Hadith are from Islamic website... “There are seven categories of people whom God will shelter under His shade on the Day when there will be no shade except His. [One is] the just leader.”(Saheeh Muslim) God spoke to His Messenger in this manner: “O My slaves, I have forbidden injustice for Myself and forbade it also for you. So avoid being unjust to one another.” (Saheeh Muslim) Thus, justice represents moral rectitude and fairness, since it means things should be where they belong. The Importance of Justice The Quran, the sacred scripture of Islam, considers justice to be a supreme virtue. It is a basic objective of Islam to the degree that it stands next in order of priority to belief in God’s exclusive right to worship (Tawheed) and the truth of Muhammad’s prophet hood. God declares in the Quran: “God commands justice and fair dealing...” (Quran 16:90) And in another passage: “O you who believe, be upright for God, and (be) bearers of witness with justice!...” (Quran 5:8) Therefore, one may conclude that justice is an obligation of Islam and injustice is forbidden. The centrality of justice to the Quranic value system is displayed by the following verse: “We sent Our Messengers with clear signs and sent down with them the Book and the Measure in order to establish justice among the people…” (Quran 57:25) The phrase ‘Our Messengers’ shows that justice has been the goal of all revelation and scriptures sent to humanity. The verse also shows that justice must be measured and implemented by the standards and guidelines set by revelation. Islam’s approach to justice is comprehensive and all-embracing. Any path that leads to justice is deemed to be in harmony with Islamic Law. God has demanded justice and, although He has not prescribed a specific route, has provided general guidelines, on how to achieve it. He has neither prescribed a fixed means by which it can be obtained, nor has He declared invalid any particular means or methods that can lead to justice. Therefore, all means, procedures, and methods that facilitate, refine, and advance the cause of justice, and do not violate the Islamic Law are valid. Above quote is from below source. Qaradawi, Yusuf, ‘Madkhal li-Darasah al-Sharia al-Islamiyya,’ p. 177 Equality in Justice The Quranic standards of justice transcend considerations of race, religion, color, and creed, as Muslims are commanded to be just to their friends and foes alike, and to be just at all levels, as the Quran puts it: “O you who believe! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah, even if it be against yourselves, your parents, and your relatives, or whether it is against the rich or the poor...” (Quran 4:135) According to another Quranic passage: “Let not the hatred of a people swerve you away from justice. Be just, for this is closest to righteousness…” (Quran 5:8) With regards to relations with non-Muslims, the Quran further states: “God does not forbid you from doing good and being just to those who have neither fought you over your faith nor evicted you from your homes...” (Quran 60:8) The scholars of the Quran have concluded that these rulings apply to all nations, followers of all faiths, as a matter of fact to all humanity. Above quote is from below source. Kamali, Mohammad, ‘Freedom, Equality, And Justice In Islam,’ p. 111 In the view of the Quran, justice is an obligation. That is why the Prophet was told: “…If you judge, judge between them with justice…” (Quran 5:42) “We have revealed to you the scripture with the truth that you may judge between people by what God has taught you.” (Quran 4:105) Furthermore, the Prophet was sent as a judge between peoples, and told: “…Say: I believe in the Scripture, which God has sent down, and I am commanded to judge justly between you...” (Quran 42:15) The Quran views itself as a scripture devoted mainly to laying down the principles of faith and justice. The Quran demands that justice be met for all, and that it is an inherent right of all human beings under Islamic Law. Above quote is from below source. Qutb, Sayyid, ‘Fi Zilal al-Quran,’ vol 2, p. 689 The timeless commitment of the Quran to the basic standards of justice is found in its declaration: “And the Word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice. None can change His Words.” (Quran 6:115) To render justice is a trust that God has conferred on the human being and, like all other trusts, its fulfillment must be guided by a sense of responsibility beyond mere conformity to set rules. Thus, the Quran states: “God commands you to render trusts to whom they are due, and when you judge between people, judge with justice…” (Quran 4:58) The reference to justice which immediately follows a reference to fulfillment of trusts indicates that it is one of the most important of all trusts. Above quote is from below source. Razi, Fakhr al-Din, ‘al-Tafsir al-Kabir,’ vol 3, p. 353 Justice and the Self The Quranic concept of justice also extends justice to being a personal virtue, and one of the standards of moral excellence that a believer is encouraged to attain as part of his God-consciousness. God says: “…Be just, for it is closest to God-consciousness…” (Quran 5:8) The Prophet himself instructed: “Be conscious of God and be just to your children.” Above quote is from below source. Riyad us-Saliheen The Quran tells the believers: “…When you speak, speak with justice, even if it is against someone close to you…” (Quran 6:152) arabnews/news/597026
