Is ISLAM applicable for every time and place?? - Answered!

Is ISLAM applicable for every time & place??

Yesterday came to my mind some questions ..those questions were always part of my brain thinking activity! I have been taught since ages that Islam is a religion that is applicable for all places, conditions & times.

But Is It?

Yes, As long as you believe in it! As long as you follow it right. It's applicable and valid beyond the limits of time and place. It's the ultimate truth. You just have to "get it". And many people sadly don't!

IT IS applicable when embracers comply by its direction & teaching. But do Muslims abide by Quran & Islam. The question is definitely NO.

The we're in agreement. And there are so many people that abide and follow it's teachings in the proper ways. And of course there are others who misrepresent it, and send the wrong message. These incriminate themselves and not Islam. They represent themselves not the great religion

Otherwise you won’t see such messy societies nowadays. This lead us to the question which is how come we are still enforcing Islamic Rules & Regulations in our daily , social & Judicial Life?

We don't really and fully implement Islamic rules. There are violations and these are not shortcomings of Islam as I stated before. These are the residual of the archaic traditions and bad representation of the religion. Many people confuse the religion with these traditions.

If women work nowadays & support their families, why we are still inheriting half what a man gets?

Yes, and it's only fair. Mainly because women are not OBLIGATED to support their families or their parents for example. While men ARE. Women don't have to pay ANY of the marriage expenses but men have to. And just about everything else. Women don't have to do any of these. And the law doesn't change for the sake of one woman doing one thing. In fact, there are MANY occasions where a woman actually inherits MORE than her male brother. Look them up!

If the father is indifference & irresponsible, why the divorced women can’t get her kids’ custody?

This is not true. The woman gets the children's custody UNCONDITIONALLY! The father of the children can not get them by the law until they come of age. And if you look at it, he only gets them for the same amount that she does. After that, the kids are on their own. The mother loses the custody if she gets married (because a foreign man shouldn't be overseeing the kids). She loses the custody to HER MOTHER! Not to the father. And after her mother, to her sister, and then to her Aunt and then to HIS mother, and FINALLY to him! If anything, the Islamic Shariah law here sides with the mother NOT the father!

If the woman is educated & successful more than her brothers & male family members, why still the man has religious influence over her?

Once the woman reaches 21, no one has any rights over her! People maintain these relations out of respect! Nothing more!

If the woman is educated & mature, why she still needs her father’s permission to get married?

No. It depends on the Islamic Mathhab. But a mature woman can marry off herself if she chooses. 

In my opinion Islam has given religious power to the man aiming to protect women, but unfortunately that led to server abuse & injustice to various segments including women.

Again, although I respect your opinion, the statement above is not true. Islam is completely against abuse and injustice. If anything it was the only thing granting women right they couldn't have dreamt about in the past. Like inheritance, and the right to have property. Those were not even there a mere 100 years ago IN THE UNITED STATES! Women are protected and their dignity is respected even dying for the sake of their protection, their honor and their dignity is equated to the Shahada. Which is the highest honor a muslim can ever hope to achieve

In Islam they claim that it’s a religion that gives Freedom of Choice. However, they call for killing those who convert into another religion. Explain?!

There's no conversion back from Islam. You have the right to weigh your choices before embracing it. But not after! That is the rule. Besides, religion is a matter of the heart. And even at the prophet's time there were hypocrites. These showed that they are Muslims while they were not! Do you know what the prophet did to them? Or the Khulafaa? Nothing!

Zillions of questions that I could find reasonable applicable convincing justifications for…Where is the way to paradise? Is there a paradise in the first place! Probably there is but in our dreams.

To question everything is a good thing. It lead our father Ibrahim. To find the true one god using only his mind and reasoning. We're not that far behind.

Almost all scholars in the world had a level of uncertainty in their beliefs. They were in doubt. In my opinion there can't be faith without doubt! Because if you were certain, then it's a no brainer. It's always the doubt when you feel yourself completely lost yet you clutch to the way of god ONLY to save you from all this doubt

Keep questioning, you will eventually find the right path.

I hope I was able to satisfy your hunger to understand these issues!
