The Ruling on Saying That Freedom Is More Important Than Implementing the Law of Allah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: What is the ruling on one who says that freedom is more important than applying the law of Allah the Exalted?

Answer:
We ask Allah for well-being, we ask Allah for well-being. Freedom is in the law of Allah the Mighty and Majestic. There is no freedom except in the law of Allah. As for anything else, it is a bestial, pre-Islamic freedom. There is no contradiction between freedom and the Shari'ah. True freedom does not contradict the Shari'ah. As for bestial and pre-Islamic freedom, yes, it contradicts the Shari'ah. This is false speech that its owner did not think about. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
