Question
What alternative can you offer for the MPL document? Is there any alternative? If there is an alternative, put it up for discussion.
Answer
Yes, there is an alternative document. That document is Allah's Shariah. Since it was finalized and perfected by Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and transmitted reliably from the Sahaabah down the long corridor of 14 centuries, there is no need to put it up for discussion. The Shariah is non-negotiable. Any Muslim who seeks an alternative to the inviolable divine Shariah should ruminate on the following Qur'aanic verses:
* "They who do not decree according to that (Shariah) which Allah has revealed, verily they are the kaafiroon."
* "What! Do you see seek the law of jaahiliyyah (such as the MPL)?" * "And whose Law is more beautiful than Allah's Law?"
* Then We have established you on a Shariah with regard to affairs. Therefore follow it, and do not follow the desires of those who do not know,"
