The Meaning of Some People’s Saying: “Islam is Suitable for Every Time and Place”

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Among the people who want to transform the Islamic legal system into outdated, secular systems, it is well known that they say, “Islam is suitable for every time and place.” Yes, what do you say? What do you say about this? I mean, those who want to transform the Islamic Shari'ah into secular systems say that Islam is suitable for every time and place.

The Shaykh : Yes, it is not according to their lists, but rather if the Book of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) itself, the Islamic Shari'ah itself, is applied to reality, not reality applied to reality.

The questioner : I mean, how do we respond to them? If they say Islam is suitable for every time and place. I am coincidentally...

The Shaykh : The meaning is that if it is applied in any time and place, it is valid and the community is valid, whereas according to their claim, the meaning would be that Islam is subject to every time and place, and this is not accepted.
