Je, hao wanao kataa amri na makatazo ya Mwenyezi Mungu wanataka wahukumiwe kwa hukumu ya Kijahiliya, ya kijinga, ya kabla ya kufika Uislamu, kulipo kuwa hapana uadilifu, bali matamanio ya nafsi tu ndiyo yliyo kuwa yakihukumu, na mapendeleo na udanganyifu ndio msingi wa hukumu? Huo ndio mwendo wa watu wa zama za Kijahiliya! Yuko aliye bora kuliko Mwenyezi Mungu kuhukumu watu wenye kuyakinika na Sharia na wenye kunyenyekea Haki? Kwa hakika hao ndio wanao tambua ubora wa hukumu za Mwenyezi Mungu.

17(V.5:50): Narrated Ibn ‘Abbâs رضي الله عنهما: The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "The most hated persons to Allâh are three: (1) A person who deviates from the right conduct, i.e., an evil doer, in the Haram (sanctuaries of Makkah and Al-Madinah); (2) a person who wants that the traditions of the pre-Islâmic period of Ignorance should remain in Islâm; and (3) a person who seeks to shed somebody’s blood without any right" (Sahih Al-Bukhâri, Vol.9.

Tafsir al-Muyassar
King Fahd Complex
أيريد هؤلاء اليهود أن تحكم بينهم بما تعارف عليه المشركون عبدةُ الأوثان من الضلالات والجهالات؟! لا يكون ذلك ولا يليق أبداً. ومَن أعدل مِن الله في حكمه لمن عقل عن الله شَرْعَه، وآمن به، وأيقن أن حكم الله هو الحق؟
