Demokrasi Itu Apa?


Apabila ditanyakan kepadamu: Apakah demokrasi itu?
Maka jawablah: Demokrasi adalah suatu hukum yang berlandaskan atas kekuasaan rakyat, tidak dilandasi dengan Al-Kitab dan tidak pula As-sunnah.

Apabila ditanyakan kepadamu: Apa hukum demokrasi?
Maka jawablah: Demokrasi termasuk syirik Akbar (besar). Dalilnya firman Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala:
…إِنِ الْحُكْمُ إِلاَّ لِلّهِ …
“Tidak ada hukum kecuali milik Allah.” (Yusuf: 40)
Dan firman Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala:
وَلَا يُشْرِكُ فِي حُكْمِهِ أَحَداً …
“Dan Dia tidak mengambil seorang pun menjadi sekutu-Nya dalam menetapkan keputusan”. (Al-Kahfi: 26)

US Supreme Court Decides Griswold v. Connecticut (1965)

She was arrested and fined. Her appeal made it to the US Supreme Court, which stated in a landmark 1965 decision that married couples had a right to "marital privacy," which included the right to use birth control. When was the same right extended to unwed individuals? More... Discuss

George Szell (1897)

Szell was a Hungarian-born conductor and pianist who immigrated to the US during WWII.
