Which is more important: denouncing the bid'ah (religious innovation) of the Mawlid, or denouncing the imposition of man-made laws that contradict the Shari'ah?

Question:
Is the issue of the Mawlid more important than the issue of imposing laws, which is kufr (disbelief) and is practiced in many Islamic countries? What is your view, Your Eminence, on this?

Answer:
Imposing laws is also a major evil, and it is major shirk (associating partners with Allah) if one considers it permissible. Ruling by the systems and customs established by men and considering that permissible is kufr. If one commits this act of considering it permissible, he has committed a great evil and a type of minor kufr and minor injustice. However, this is ongoing, and its denunciation is ongoing. As for the Mawlid, it recurs every year, it recurs every year in the name of religion, so it is obligatory to denounce it. As for what concerns the systems, which is the imposition of laws, its matter is clearer for people; they know that it is an evil, that it is invalid, and that it is a great harm. But the states are not like that; they are insistent on it. We ask Allah to guide them and return them to the right path.
