Assalamualaikum brother, Good to speak out in this manner. 6:116 - Wert thou to follow the common run of those on earth they will lead thee away from the Way of Allah.  They follow nothing but conjecture: they do nothing but lie. abdeen -------Original Message-------   From: islamcity@yahoogroups.com Date: Tuesday, April 05, 2005 3:24:35 PM To: islamcity@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [IslamCity] Democratic hypocracy   > > > bismiAllah wa3alikumussalamura7matuallah My dear brother in Islam Curtis Sharif and shaikh ul Dummies Shuhaib sultan. The great disaster of Muslims today is we are over a billion and we create similar number of senselessness and lies. The following paragraph has been said in your post I want to know from where you have been sucking this please and if you and the Dummy Shuhaib sultan give me the evidence of this which you had mentioned> �Interestingly, a model exists in Islamic history for Muslims in using mutual consultation as a process of selecting a new leader. When Prophet Muhammad was on his deathbed, many of his Companions urged him to name a successor who would lead the community, but the Prophet refused to do so�a clear indication that he wanted the next leader to be chosen through mutual consultation rather than be imposed upon the community. As such, when the Prophet passed away, the most pressing issue for the community was to choose its next leader. Three Companions were nominated to take the post of khalifah (caliph) and in the end, the Prophet�s closest Companion, Abu Bakr, was chosen to be the community�s new leader. Abu Bakr and his three successors, known collectively as the Four Rightly Guided Caliphs, were also chosen in a similar fashion that reflected popular consent. So the idea of choosing a leader in accordance with popular will is certainly not a new idea in the Islamic tradition. As such, the notion of elections is compatible with the idea of an Islamic democracy.� If we realize that our western master had taught us the one and only drumbeat of deceptive word called democracy. So most of Muslims has our mind set as this deception as the only solution of success forgetting that ISLAM IS MUCH FAAR BEYOND THESE DEVILISH TRAPS which we today adapt instead of learning what our prophet peace be apon him and his companions did. Instead we try to squeeze ourselves and misguide others towards our ignorant and inclined ideas. Allah may guide us all towards the right way ameen.
