00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:08.890
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

00:00:08.890 --> 00:00:15.580
The characteristics of both Shari'ah-based governance and secular governance.

00:00:15.580 --> 00:00:19.480
Shari'ah-based governance is defined by several primary characteristics.

00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:22.679
The most important of these is its divine origin.

00:00:22.679 --> 00:00:24.579
Perfection and comprehensiveness.

00:00:24.579 --> 00:00:25.980
Justice.

00:00:25.980 --> 00:00:30.780
And the balance between achieving the worldly and otherworldly interests of the servants of Allah.

00:00:30.780 --> 00:00:32.979
As well as warding off harm from them.

00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:37.479
And establishing servitude on earth to Allah, the Almighty and Majestic.

00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:42.880
In contrast, contemporary secular governance is characterized by its detachment from revelation.

00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:45.280
Due to its separation of religion from the state.

00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:48.380
And its foundation upon injustice and human whims.

00:00:48.380 --> 00:00:50.579
And the dominance of the strong over the weak.

00:00:50.579 --> 00:00:52.479
And their control over them.

00:00:52.479 --> 00:00:54.780
As is the case with the right of veto.

00:00:54.780 --> 00:00:59.579
The veto power held by the five major powers in the United Nations.

00:00:59.579 --> 00:01:03.179
It is also characterized by the use of double standards.

00:01:03.179 --> 00:01:05.079
And by deceit and deception.

00:01:05.079 --> 00:01:10.780
By presenting these injustices under the guise of policy, resolve, and the achievement of security.
