00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:08.990
Summary of Sunni concepts

00:00:08.990 --> 00:00:13.460
Disadvantages of democracy

00:00:13.460 --> 00:00:19.460
Since democracy is the political practice of the content of the theory of sovereignty

00:00:19.460 --> 00:00:25.460
Its basic evil, then, is that it is devoted to polytheism in governance

00:00:25.460 --> 00:00:31.460
What we have shown is that it is necessary to say and believe in the theory of sovereignty

00:00:31.460 --> 00:00:39.500
Where democrats flee from the worship of rulers and popes to the worship of peoples and parliaments

00:00:39.500 --> 00:00:45.500
It is a tyranny practiced in the name of the divine right of the Church and the rulers

00:00:45.500 --> 00:00:51.500
To another tyranny practiced in the name of the divine right of peoples and parliaments

00:00:51.500 --> 00:00:58.500
We now hear expressions such as the rule of law instead of the rule of law

00:00:58.500 --> 00:01:05.500
There is no crime or punishment except by law, instead of what is forbidden by what is forbidden by Sharia law

00:01:05.500 --> 00:01:13.500
What is permissible is what the Sharia has made permissible, and that is enough of the greatest evil to disbelieve in democracy

00:01:13.500 --> 00:01:18.620
In addition to this, the main evil in the democratic system

00:01:18.620 --> 00:01:24.620
Democratic thinkers themselves enumerated other drawbacks of democracy

00:01:25.620 --> 00:01:31.620
Firstly, it is not the rule of the majority in reality

00:01:31.620 --> 00:01:36.620
Because most people refrain from elections and do not participate in them

00:01:36.620 --> 00:01:41.620
This is also indicated by the voting rates in the elections

00:01:41.620 --> 00:01:49.659
Secondly, capital owners are the real controllers of the democratic system

00:01:49.659 --> 00:01:54.659
Because they control the media, which needs their money

00:01:54.659 --> 00:01:57.659
The media is what shapes public opinion

00:01:57.659 --> 00:02:02.659
Even with false news, analysis, and false propaganda

00:02:02.659 --> 00:02:07.659
Thus, the opinion and judgment of the majority are not truth

00:02:07.659 --> 00:02:09.659
But for those with money

00:02:09.659 --> 00:02:14.849
In order to achieve their interests and strengthen their political influence

00:02:14.849 --> 00:02:15.849
Third

00:02:15.849 --> 00:02:20.849
The democratic system is based on political parties

00:02:20.849 --> 00:02:23.849
They are parties that differ in thought and approach

00:02:23.849 --> 00:02:28.849
A difference that leads to bickering and conflict among themselves

00:02:28.849 --> 00:02:34.939
Instead of cooperation and collaboration to achieve the interests of the country and its people

00:02:34.939 --> 00:02:35.939
Fourth

00:02:35.939 --> 00:02:40.939
The principle of equality in electoral votes and referendums

00:02:40.939 --> 00:02:46.939
There is no distinction between the voice of someone with experience, sound opinion, and academic qualifications

00:02:46.939 --> 00:02:49.939
The voice of the common people is limited in thought and opinion

00:02:49.939 --> 00:02:55.939
Which deprives the nation of effectively benefiting from the opinion of these qualified experts

00:02:55.939 --> 00:02:57.939
To influence events

00:02:57.939 --> 00:03:00.939
While the Shura system is achieved in Islam

00:03:00.939 --> 00:03:07.939
The greatest benefit is from the experiences of those who are called the people of solution and contract

00:03:07.939 --> 00:03:10.259
Fifth

00:03:10.259 --> 00:03:17.259
Studies have shown that the average lifespan of governments in democratic systems is half a century

00:03:17.259 --> 00:03:20.259
Not more than eight months

00:03:20.259 --> 00:03:22.259
And that's a short period

00:03:22.259 --> 00:03:29.259
It does not enable any government to implement its reform and development plans and programmes

00:03:29.259 --> 00:03:34.000
