The Sharia is Allah's Law alone, not man-made guesses.In the Koran the term 'Shariah' is explicitly referring to the Law given to Noah, Abraham, Moses and Jesus; the same Law later
revealed to Muhammad, which Muslims are commanded to follow or surrender to (Islam). It's explicit in 42.13 and 45.18, yet in
another derivative: ''
Or have they partners who have made lawful for them in religion that which Allah allowed not?'' (42.21).
http://i-cias.com/e.o/sharia.htmSharia is often referred to as Islamic law, but this is wrong, as only a small part is irrefutably based upon the core Islamic text, the Koran. Correct designations would be "Muslim Law", "Islam-inspired", "Islam-derived," or even "the law system of Muslims." This is well known to most Muslims, yet Sharia is always referred to as "based upon the Koran", hence it is the "will of God." One sees traces of many non-Muslim juridical systems in the Sharia, such as Old Arab Bedouin law, commercial law from Mecca, agrarian law from Madina, law from the conquered countries, Roman law and Jewish law. Also, calling the Sharia 'law' can be misleading, as Sharia extends beyond law. Sharia is the totality of religious, political, social, domestic and private life.
All this is wrong and contrary to the Koranic sayings in which the Deen and Iman to follow and submit to (thus the Law of Muhammad)
is that of Abraham, i.e. the seven Noachide rulings. What in world is 'The Law of Muhammad' if not that of Abraham, his 'deen', thus
to comply with the Cosmic Order within oneself (i.e. God's Natural Law), so to avoid idolatry at all cost as the ultimate shirk? Now, the
Law of Abraham, the one he followed righteously was that of Noah (Nuh) referring us back to the seven Noachide commandments!
There are two known sets of the Noachide commandments, one is the official Jewish rendition from the Tosefta and Talmud (simple)
1. Prohibition of Idolatry (17.22).
2. Prohibition of Murder (17.33).
3. Prohibition of Theft (17.34).
4. Prohibition of Sexual promiscuity (17.32).
5. Prohibition of Blasphemy (17.23).
6. Not to eat flesh taken from an animal while it is still alive (5.3; 2.173).
7. Requirement to have just Laws (17.35).
But we find another set of rules, in the apocryphal Book of Jubilee (7.20-28), which we know had deeply influenced the nascent Islam:
(1) to observe righteousness, and
(2) to cover the shame of their flesh, and
(3) to bless their Creator, and
(4) honour father and mother, and
(5) love their neighbour, and
(6) guard their souls from fornication and uncleanness
(7) and (guard their souls from) all iniquity.
Ref.:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Laws_of_NoahThose seven laws are to be found in the koran, sura 17, between verses 22 and 36. They are referred to as being the 'Furkan'
(title of sura 25) as the redemptive knowledge between 'right and wrong' (truth vs vanity). Although Islamic scholars blend
them as to the 'Koran' itself, like the opening surah, many verses indicate that they are indeed separated blessed entities.
Thus the 'seven often repeated verses' are the Noachide Covenant, and are also referred to as 'Messaniy' (15.87 & 39.23).
Furkan (2.53, 185; 21.48; 37.117, 25.1; 3.3; 8.29) and Messaniy are yet again defined in 2.83-84: ''
And (remember) when We
made a covenant with the Children of Israel, (saying): Worship none save Allah (only), and be good to parents and to kindred
and to orphans and the needy, and speak kindly to mankind; and establish worship and pay the poor-due. Then, after that,
ye slid back, save a few of you, being averse. ---And when We made with you a covenant (saying): Shed not the blood of your
people nor turn (a party of) your people out of your dwellings. Then ye ratified (Our covenant) and ye were witnesses (thereto).''
It's probably no coincidental that furkan is altogether written... 7 times, matching the seven colored rainbow of God's Covenant!
http://www.wikinoah.org/index.php/Noahi ... e_Qur%27an
God's Shariah CAN'T be man-made, added or rewritten, unless shirk!It's easy to see how the ritualistic Islam diverged from those seven laws, running counter to the DIN of Noah and Abraham!
So THIS WAS the former divine Law Muslims had to surrender to in the original meaning of 'Muslim' and 'Islam'! In 42.13,
42.21, 45.18 and 16.123. So Shariah really meant those seven Laws WILLED to Noah and Moses yet revealed to Muhammad.
On 42.13, where 'Shariah' is fully mentioned (excerpts)
http://www.theholybook.org/content/view/4285/94/The verse uses the word, will, for the Laws ordained for Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, but it uses the verb, reveal, for the Last Messenger. Will implies strong advice and giving special importance to certain things.... The verse first mentions Prophet Noah, and continues to talk about the Last Messenger, and then the other great Messengers. This is because Prophet Noah, is the first Messenger to whom a comprehensive Law to govern life was willed (see: 33.7)
Preserving and obeying the Law is indispensable for establishing the Religion and preserving it from distortions, changes, and corruptions. The Law has the same meaning for the Religion as the skin has for the human body. The main reason why the Religion lost its originality and purity after the Prophets Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, upon them all be peace, is that people either ignored or neglected the Law, or changed it, or disobeyed it. Negligence of, or disobedience to, the Law is also one of the basic reasons for the internal divisions among the communities of the Messengers after them, and for the deviations witnessed concerning the essentials of faith.
Well, it has been duly corrupted and the term 'Shariah', was extended to all kinds of precepts not found in the Koran. Contrary to
the Muslims' beliefs what they are following isn't the 'usul ad-din' (fundamental teaching) but man-made distortions leading them
to commit shirk, one after another. Laws falsely promulgated in the name of Allah, substituting to His given Law as revealed to
Muhammad, yet willed to Noah, Abraham, Moses and Jesus! In the Koran Shariah -solely- refers to the Law of Allah as His Will.
Another and last derivative for the word Shariah is written in 16.123:
''
We inspired thee (Muhammad, saying): Follow the religion of Abraham, as one by nature upright. He was not of the idolaters.''
So in most of their surrenders (Islam) Muslims are deviating from the core teaching of their Holy Book and bow to idolatrous creeds.
They aren't following the Deen and Iman -willed- to Noah and Abraham, but man-made conjectures defaming their righteousness...
Any and ALL ahadiths contradicting the Koran must be hold as such: so they aren't 'Muslims', let alone Mu'min, nor following 'Islam'!
