My study examines how effectively this concept can be further enhanced and replicated to encourage similar robust systems globally to bring about the renaissance to establish the Will of Allah, the last of Allah's representatives to mankind, Imam Mahdi (af) on earth. "It is He who has sent His messenger with guidance and the religion of truth to make it prevail over every other religion. However much the disbelievers may dislike it." (Holy Quran Sura al-Tawbah 9:33 and Sura As-Saff 61:9).
Belief in One God and human freedom The root and essence of Islamic belief is monotheism. We believe that the creator of the world and of all beings in the universe including mankind is the one and only Exalted God who knows all and is capable of all things and to Him belongs all things and objects. This principle teaches us to be submissive only before the power of God and to obey no man unless obeying him is equal to obeying God.
On this basis no individual has a right to force any other man to bow to him. "Say: O followers of the Book! Come to an equitable proposition between us and you that we shall not serve any but Allah and we shall not associate anything with Him, and that some of us shall not take others for lords besides Allah;…"(Holy Quran Sura Ale-Imran:64). This code of faith teaches us the principle of human freedom.
That is no man has the right to deprive an individual or community of liberty, to legislate for them, to regulate their conduct according to his own understanding of it which is generally defective, or regulate the conduct of others according to his wishes or desires.
The most important pillar of Islam is the belief that man has been created by God and is subservient to none but Him ( Holy Quran Sura Ar-Ra'd:36) and that one of the primary objectives of the Prophet's(s) mission is to release mankind from all burdens and chains enslaving it (Holy Quran Sura Al-A'raf:157).
This provides not only the essence of the Islamic Charter for individual freedom from all bondage but also subjects man to the sovereignty of God in all aspects of life which essentially implies subordination of man to the moral law as specified in the Holy Quran and by the examples and traditions of the Ahlul Bayt (a). It is for this reason that the social rules and regulations begin with opposition to tyrannical and colonialist powers.
