Muhammad (S) and his Constitutional Charter

DESCRIPTION:

Constitutional Charter of Madina “Meethaq-e-Madina” has been spoken of differently by different writers. It has been claimed by some modern writers, that Islam stands for democracy and having said so they argue that Parliamentary Democracy is most suited to Muslim communities.

A parliament which is subject to Eternal Laws revealed by Allah cannot be sovereign. Hence, it has to conduct its affairs keeping in mind that it should not trespass limits set for Muslims in Shariah. Meethaq-e-Madina was the first chapter that any head of state issued to people who were opting to reside under his jurisdiction.
