Do You Think Sharia Law is Good?

[dekiteshim]

It’s an analogy the Quran orders to do something so we do it just like the Bible orders you to do something you do it even the Bible has its own sharia the mosaic law

Mosaic law is Jewish law. Christians have a new covenant under Christ

 

[Al hashimi]

This is false from the questionable “apostle” Paul
Did you know the earliest Christians followed the mosaic law

If u r gonna say something to me say it in english.

Are you saying you aint a Somali

 

[Internet Nomad]

Yep, but I can fulfil all those things within a common law system and without infringing upon the rights of others

Who decides those rights god or people. You should be unapologetic in your faith. Even if it goes against “modern” values.

 

[Internet Nomad]

Its nice to know that the site is 70% muslim. Considering that gaal are more present online rather than real life i see this as somewhat good. Inshallah it will be 100% May allah guide these people.

Are you saying you aint a Somali

Nah i am just not bothered to learn the language.

You’re qawmu lesbian, not qawmu luud. It’s not the same thing. Idk why you keep attaching yourself to those niman. If God in heaven made a distinction, you take that deal and run with it.

Lesbians need a new PR team

It wouldn't make any sense for a God to ban one but not the other

I would say no unless there is a good example of it working in the modern world.

So you are not going to look at how islam was the dominant force for the past 1400 years. What brought all the races and ethnicities to fly under a single flag. What caused the islamic golden age? The religion which conquered Persia and rome? Mehmed II bringing Muhammed SAW prophecy to be true by conquering Constantinople. After Islam came to Somalia we ramped up in empire building.

You’re so real for this. I’m not a lesbian or bisexual but If I was, I wouldn’t associate with bi or gay men. They are disgusting and repulsive.

Agree, these niggas are the number one cause of AIDS in the community. I remember when the monkey pox thing happened, these niggas demanded special treatment because they couldn't keep it in their pants.

HIV/Aids came from gay white men in Haiti. They put the blame on black straight Africans. DL black men give black women aids. Don’t ever get with a nigga from Atlanta or San Francisco

Right, how are they going to blame us when they got Patient Zero?

They stopped reporting on it when there was cases of it spreading to dogs and children

FYI, as published in a 2016 study, patient zero was an American soldier, who went missing in the Zairian forest, later relocated to Germany, where his illness was first identified, not as HIV, but its pathogen.

I did not say that. Obviously, Islam only recognizes marriage between man and woman.

It’s just not the same as male homosexuality and doesn’t carry the same social stigma and punishments.

a) Let us begin with 'Financing', a subset of Contract law, which is rather simple to follow; say, one borrows half a million to finance a home, at a current going rate in the US, of 7% plus 2% APR for a fixed thirty year mortgage. One's annual mortgage payment is estimated at 48,277, of which 44,861 is of interest whereas 3,415 goes towards principal, in its initial annum.

If the mortgage is amortised, at the end of its life cycle, it would have cost the mortgagee 1.5 million with almost a million (948,325.20 to be more precise) being interest.

It is a different story if the rate is adjustable, where it could rise, say as high as 21%, as has happened in the past, and does happen to poorer borrowers, who end up losing their properties along with equity, as and when the property market tanks.

Under the Common law, this is permissible.

Under Islamic law, it is not permissible for the following reasons: it is excessive, and exploitative of those most in need, whilst only benefiting fat cats.

Instead, 'murabaha*', or cost-plus financing, which is agreed upon between contracting parties is agreed upon, hardly changes throughout the instrument's lifecycle, and is considered neither prohibitive to the lender, nor exploitative to borrower. The only possibly losing party is the issuing house, which services mortgage instruments, which should not exist in the first place.

Out of self-interest, of the two, if you were a fresh graduate in the housing market, seeking h(er)is American dream. which would you favour, as the mortgagee?

b) Let us look at taxation, where in the US, the poorer, one is, the higher the tax bracket; for example, a single mother working in two jobs is taxed at a rate of 22% whereas a wealthy investor either pays no taxes, or is taxed from 7% - 12%, most of which is deferred to a latter date, written off as a loss, and potentially never paid.

This requires further explanation, but shall pause there for the day.

--------------
Footnotes:
* Murabaha, a cost-plus financing structure, in Islamic financing, is a cost, and markup agreed between buyer, and seller in the purchase of an asset, property in this instance.

Postscript:
A relevant tangent, but perhaps under another sunrise, let us draw a distinction between Islamic law, and how Muslims practise, where majority of Muslims know nigh to nought about its teachings.

In the case of personal taxes, under the Islamic law, Muslims are required to pay 'zakat' at a rate of 2.5% of savings, with funds being earmarked for the poor, and those most in need. There are other laws governing food, gold, silver, movable goods etc., which falls under Tort, a different topic of discussion.

Again, of the two, out of self-interest, as a fresh graduate, which would you prefer: being taxed at the 22% bracket, or 2.5%?

Let us lance Personal law, which tends to be more of an interest to the masses, and take a look at binding laws of 'trespassing', specifically at it relates to material rights.

Under the Common law, for instance in the UK, if a man walks into your house, serves himself out of your fridge, and peeks at your telly, as the owner of the house, you can not remove the person, and if you do try by way of applying force, say grab him by the scruff of the neck, or frogmarch him out of the door, you are then liable to be charged with assault, or worse GBH. A classic example is Justices' arguments in the famous case law of R v Craig & Bentley.

Under the Islamic law, before you even enter a property, even your own family home, you are advised to seek permission of entry, and where a permission is not granted, you are in violation, and could potentially amount to felony. It must be noted Madahibis, and ulamaa differ in the interpretations as to the penalty.

Again, of the two, out of self-interest, say for in the case of a young lady, residing on her own, which would you prefer?

Let us glance at theft, under serious conditions, which I trust is of interest to the liberal crowd. Perhaps another day.
