Democracy is a religion !!!

This Jamā'ah and other Jamā'ah who ascribe themselves to Islam have taken democracy as their religion, and they urge and call and tell people that "democracy is actually Islam! This is Shūrā..." freedom of speech! Democracy is divided into 3 parts: equality, justice and freedom, and Islam also came with equality, justice and freedom. Meaning democracy is part of Allah's religion." This is how they deceive people! This is how they misguide people! This would be similar to one saying: "Judaism is a correct religion and it doesn't go against Allah's religion, because Jews also believe in Allah's messenger Ibrahim (as)" They also believe in the last day, and they believe in Allah, and because of this, Judaism is a good religion." Deception upon deception!

Why is democracy, a religion other than Islam? The Ulemā have said: "Every thought, methodology, conviction, or ideology which puts Allah, and the people on the same level, or puts anything on the same level as Allah, is a religion other than Islam." When Amr Ibn Luhāy slaughtered to someone other than Allah, he committed Shirk, he left the fold of Islam, and entered the religion of idol worship. This is why every ideology which people make up, and in which they attribute a partner with Allah in Rubūbiyyāh, or Ulūhiyyāh is a religion other than Islam, and democracy attributes a partner to Allah in both Tawhīd uh Rububiyyah, and in Tawhīd ul Ulūhiyyā.

How is that? We said that Tawhīd uh Rubūbiyyāh is to attribute Allah's rights only to Allah, and one of Allah's rights is legislation! Legislation in matters of honor, blood, wealth, the soul, and life. This is the right of our lord (the Exalted)! And democracy says and decides that total legislation in the matters of honor, blood, wealth, and life belongs to the people, and not Allah, and secularism gives Allah his own ownership, and the king its own ownership (dividing religion from the government, and politics). And like this, they set up people as lords instead of Allah. Not besides, but instead of Allah. And you (wretch) become happy, and you say: "This is an Islamic party. Bashaar will leave, and voting will be brought in... etc" This is how they deceive people in the name of Islam, and they say: "We are an Islamic party. We will enter into parliament, and we want Shari'a. We will establish Islam." And all this to deceive people, and you set them up as legislators instead of Allah. 

"We only worship them that they may bring us nearer to Allah in position." [Surah Az Zumar: 3]

SHIRK! They want to attain Allah's pleasure, but for the price of your Tawhīd, and your Islam, so through you, they can set up a legislator instead of Allah. So they set up a partner with Allah. (May Allah protect us from this) Even if they had good intentions, because good intentions will not benefit if you are committing major Shirk. Good intentions won't benefit even for innovations (bid'ah), furthermore, not even with forbidden things (harām). Whoever steals something, so he can build a Masjid; this deed gets rejected. RasoolAllah (saws) said: "Whoever brings something new to our religion, that isn't from it, this will be rejected from him." [Sahīh Bukhārī]

So how can somebody set up a legislator instead of Allah?! How can somebody vote for a legislator instead of Allah?! Even if it was in regards to a "good" man, on the contrary, he is a Taghūt. That is because he is quarrelling with Allah as to his (Allah's) (exclusive) attribute, and right to legislate.

Shāykh Abu Umar al Kuwāytī (تقبل الله)

Ibn Kathir (رحمه الله) said: "So whoever abandons the wise Shari'a which was revealed upon Muhammad (saws), the seal of the prophets, and goes to other abrogated Shari'a for judgement, he becomes a Kāffir, so how about the one who goes to al-Yāsiq (man-made law) for judgement, and gives it precedence (over the Shari'a of Muhammad (saws). Whosoever does this has become a kaafir by the Ijmā of the Muslims."
