INTRODUCTI
ON
• In order to understand the relations between Islam and politics, it is important that
we understand Islam’s basic values of humanity and how politicization of the
religion has prevented the manifestation of these humanitarian values.

• Islam basically is a source of ethics and morality and not a political force. None of
over six thousand verses in the Qur’an and the Prophet’s tradition (Hadith)
mentions about Islamic state or political Islam.

• This does not mean that Muslims should avoid politics. Muslims’ voices must be
heard in deciding what kinds of laws they want, and what kinds of priorities the
governments should have.

• Even within Muslim societies, there are differences of political and doctrinal
nature, the solution to these differences is not to fight, but to find ways in which
we can all live peacefully together.

Shura SYSTEM.
• deliberation by the concerned parties in reaching
consensus to make a decision.
• The principle of shura can relate equally to the political
and economic affairs of the community just as it can to
the family affairs and business concerns of individuals.
• The Prophet practiced shura widely that Imam Abu
Hurairah described him as the most consultative person.

Justice (al-‘adl)
• is placing something in its rightful place where it
belongs; it also means according equal treatment to
others.
• Justice is to be implemented even if it is in favor of a
bitter enemy or against a close relative, or it goes to a
weak person and against a noble one.
• Muslim glorify Khilafah Rashidun because of their high
standard in applying justice.
Freedom (al-huriyya)
• viewed in Islam as natural and inherent in every
human being as declared by the Prophet.

• According to Islam, the most valuable thing in life is


belief in God (iman); but that should not be imposed
upon anybody.

• Muslims are enjoined to show respect to the religions


of other people and not to abuse their gods.
Equality (musawat)
• The main purpose of the division of humankind into
groups, tribes and nations is to invite familiarity,
cooperation and friendship among people.

• The Prophet enjoined Muslims to be kind to the weak


members of the society: slaves, orphans, women and
children.
CONCLUSIO
N
• In short, Islam and politic is related to each other. Islam’s high respects for
humanity and moral and ethical values can be observed in its achievement to
transform pre-Islamic Arabic nomads into civilized communities.

• Islam, in its original texts of the Qur’an and Hadith, did not introduce a
comprehensive system of government. Politics, on the other hand, by its
nature is dynamic and keeps changing following the conditions of certain
times and places.

• At the same time, Islam did not ignore political matters because the religion
is meant to guide humanity on all aspects of life.

• So what Islam did, instead of giving a rigid and comprehensive direction in


politics, is to introduce a number of principles to guide the political life of the
Muslims.
