In the modern times, Islam has been misinterpreted to present Islam as anti-pluralistic, violent, intolerant and exclusivist ...

This is important to be discussed because the issue of whether the usage of Qiyas to be accepted as source of Shariah or otherwise is still debatable in these present days. According to the majority of scholars, Quran and Sunnah are the primary sources of Shariah, while Ijma and Qiyas, they consider it as secondary sources of Syariah.

Man is a believer by fitrah. Human nature is like a clear mirror that shows everything in front of it. However, the moment it gets raged, it loses its clarity, and thus does not reflect the objects, and only then the soul needs evidence. Therefore, belief in Allah can be the result of pure human nature or rational evidence and scientific evidence. Allah created mankind and established faith in Him in its nature. If they follow this belief, they will be prepared, assured, calm and happy. ...
