what price a great nation
---------------------------------------------------------------------
"If the people of the scripture (Jews, Christians, and Muslims)
believe and maintain a righteous life, we will remit their sins and
admit them into the blissful Heaven. Had they observed the Torah,
the Gospel, and what is revealed herein from their Lord, they would
have enjoyed provisions from above them, and from beneath their
feet. Some of them are righteous, but most of them are evil doers."
[5:65-66]
"If only the people of the various communities believed and
maintained a righteous life, we would have showered them with
blessings from the heaven and the earth" [7:96]
"God is the One who controls your happiness, or misery.
.... God is the One who makes you rich or poor." [53:43, 48]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A nation that upholds God's laws is guaranteed prominence among the
nations of the world, victory, prosperity, and happiness (10:62-64,
16:97, 24:55, 41:30-31). On the other hand, a nation that violates
God's laws incurs a miserable life (20:124). A nation that upholds
God's laws is guaranteed to be a great nation. This is not a mere
idealistic dream; since God is in full control (10:61), His guarantees
and promises are done. A nation that upholds God's laws is
characterized by:
1. Maximum freedom for the people - freedom of religion, freedom of
expression, freedom to travel, and freedom of economy (2:256, 10:99,
88:21-22).
2. Guaranteed human rights for all the people, regardless of their
race, color, creed, social status, financial situation, or political
affiliation (5:8, 49:13).
3. Prosperity for all the people. God's economic system is based on
constant circulation of wealth, no usury, and productive investment.
Non-productive economy such as gambling, lottery, and high interest
loans are not permitted (2:275-7, 59:7).
4. Social justice for all. Because of the obligatory charity (Zakat),
no one will go hungry or un-sheltered (2:215, 70:24-25, 107:1-7).
5. A political system that is based on unanimous consensus. Through
mutual consultation and freedom of expression, one side of any given
issue convinces all participants in the discussion. The end result is
a unanimous agreement, not the opinion of a 51% majority rammed down
the throat of the 49% minority (42:38).
6. A society that upholds and maintains the highest standards of moral
behavior. There will be a strong family, no alcoholism, no illicit
drugs, no illegitimate pregnancies, no abortions, and practically no
divorce.
7. Maximum regard for people's lives and properties. Therefore, there
will be no crime against the people's lives or properties.
8. Prevalence of love, courtesy, peace, and mutual respect among the
people, and between this nation and other world communities (3:110,
60:8-9).
9. Environmental protection is guaranteed through conservation and
prohibition of wasteful practices (30:41).
