[quote]1) Given the current geo-politic scene, the conditions of Jihad are not met, one of which is at least a requisite amount of military might. [Pakistan and Turkey might be exceptions] Conclusion: In absence of requisite conditions Jihad by force cannot be allowed. 2) Given that the majority today do not measure up to the moral depravity of the likes of Pharoah and his henchmen, and given that we now have psychological explanations to horrific events like a mother drowning her kids, capital punishment cannot be applied. Our current society is far advanced than primitive tribes of Mosaic times or even those of 600 AD Arabia. Generally, people dont go about committing horrific crimes like burying daughters, popping eyes out etc. Conclusion: In absence of vile depravity, I dont suppose the Hudood punishments can be applied anymore. 3) Given that women have joined the work force, and the traditional concept of family no longer applies, the Islamic inheritance law would not seem to be applicable. Conclusion: With violation of the traditional structures, traditional prescriptions may not be appropriate. Have not conditions sufficiently changed that old prescriptions have become trite?
