Democracy in Light of the Qurʾān and Sunnah
Shaykh ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz al-Buraʿī
A multitude of clear proofs opposing the ‘way of life’ known as democracy (the worshipping of the majority!).
From the issues discussed:
- Democracy is a man-made way of life.
- Democracy opposes the essence of Islām.
- The issue of women as rulers.
- The clear immorality of democracy.
- The unsuccessful implementation of justice through democracy.
- The falsehood of claiming democracy contains some good in light its opposition to the Sunnah and the Salaf.
- The Shūrah vs The Democracy (Returning back to the book of Allāh or returning to desires and personal gain).
