Is this in every country, even in the countries that rule by other than what Allah has revealed?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In every country, O Shaykh, even the countries that rule by other than what Allah has revealed?
The Shaykh : Yes, if he wants to achieve his objective by right or by wrong.
The questioner : But, O Shaykh, he says, "In Article such-and-such, and based on Article such-and-such, he relies on it."
The Shaykh : What contradicts [the Shari'ah], but is it right? No. If it is right, there is no harm. For example, if we wanted to make the oath stricter for a Jew, we would tell him to swear by the Torah; for a Christian, by the Gospel; for a Rafidi, by one of the Ahl al-Bayt, as we have heard. That is, he swears by Allah a thousand times, but he does not swear by 'Ali ibn Abi Talib once. Yes.
