What are the Islamic legal rulings concerning the patterns of legislative work in parliament and its men?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: Then he said: "The fourth question: What are the Islamic legal rulings concerning the patterns of legislative work in parliament and its men? We say that this is a vague question, and what you intend by it is not clear to us. This is because it is assumed that a Muslim member of parliament must be knowledgeable about Islamic legal rulings in all their forms and types. So if a matter is put on the table for discussion, it must be weighed by the scale of the Shari'ah. Whatever agrees with the Shari'ah, he supports, and otherwise, he rejects it, such as trusting the government, or taking an oath to support the constitution, and the like. As for the men of parliament, perhaps you mean: What is the position of Islamic members of parliament toward the other men of parliament? If that is what you intend, then there is no doubt that it is obligatory for Muslims, whether members of parliament or voters, to be with those who are upon the truth, as the Lord of the worlds said:
and be with those who are true. وَكُونُوا مَعَ الصَّادِقِينَ
[At-Tawbah 9:119]
