We the Muslims are not allowed take any other judgment rather than the judgment of Allah, because we submit to Allah alone. [Say] Shall I seek a judge other than Allâh while it is He Who has sent down unto you the Book (The Qurân), explained in detail. [TMQ 6:114] This is only Allah who has the right to legislate, the right to decide what is halal and what is haram, what to be done and what not to be done. “So judge between them by what Allâh has revealed, and follow not their vain desires, diverging away from the truth that has come to you” [TMQ 5:48] “The command (or judgement) is for none but Allah” [TMQ 12:40] The only correct reference point for us is the Islamic shariah .Allah says, “But no, by your Lord, they can have no Faith, until they make you (O Muhammad SAW) judge in all disputes between them, and find in themselves no resistance against your decisions, and accept (them) with full submission.” [Tmq 4:65] No one has the right to oppose the Allah and His messenger. Allah says, “It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allâh and His Messenger have decreed a matter that they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allâh and His Messenger, he has indeed strayed in a plain error.” [Quran 33:36] This is the Quran with what we should judge our action, this is neither family values nor social values. This is the shariah which will guide us, this is neither personal interest or social laws or system. “Have you seen him who takes his own lust (vain desires) as his ilâh (god), and Allâh knowing (him as such), left him astray, and sealed his hearing and his heart, and put a cover on his sight. Who then will guide him after Allâh? Will you not then remember?” [TMQ 45:23] When people think that I am a bad person, I do not automatically presume that they are bad, because that would make us the same. I prefer to pray for them. May Allah guide all of us so that we can think in the correct method.
