Question from a reader

Question: Your hatred towards MDP suggest that you support the government. How will you feel if you were imprisoned and tortured by this regime ?

Answer:

Lets leave issue of whether we support the government or not. The answer to your question will shed some light on it. If I was imprisoned and tortured by the government I will condemn the action using the Islamic criteria along with the correct Islamic evidences (daleel). That is to say, I will accuse the government (If I were innocent) of acting contradictory to Islamic shariah. However this condemnation of the government will not affect my opinion on MDP or any other party. Similar to my judgement on the government, my opinion on MDP or any other political party will be based on what Islam says about political parties. If that party fails to adhere to Islam, then it is rejected regardless of its claims of being an ''opposition'' to the government.
