You've stated here many times attempting to refute my logic by calling me a fake intellectual although I haven't attempted to be perceived in such away. You view the west from the lens of the clergy in the East. I understand what Islamists like Al Qaeda and Al Shabab have done to my nation. Secularism is a concept you still haven't grasped which exists in the far east as well from Japan to South Korea.
Japan and South Korea could use Islam. Al Qaeda and Al Shabaab are khawarij. Believing in the sharia doesn't mean that one is Al Qaeda or Al Shabaab.
And yes, I am well aware what secularism is- and I oppose it.
It's really absurd to, Ayaan Hirsi Ali style, equate believing in sharia with khawarij groups. Every Muslim scholar ever believed in the sharia. Are you going to tell me Al Ghazali was Al Shabaab?
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) implemented the sharia. You think Western white people know better than Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)? In the terminology of people who use the term "Islamist," Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) would have been an Islamist. All the sahaba and Muslim scholars would have been "islamists".
