Law #3
Between the Shari'a Law and God's law there is only one similarity which is both are suppose to help guide you in your faith on choosing moral standards that are set up by each God. One major difference between these two is one is based on works while the other i based on mental and spiritual acts. The Shari'a law is in place o enforce and punish those who do not act the way a Muslim is suppose to. For instance the 5 pillars of Islam are all at their core physical acts. Also the Shari'a law is very constricting, it holds people back with no purpose. The laws of the Bible are in place to keep us save and free of immorality. Another concept that is very different is how Allah is unknowable. This could also be seen through the Shari'a law because if Allah is unknowable then how do we know that the Shari'a law contains all of Allah's commandments. The Bible is the word of God and it contains every law that a Christian should abide by, so there is no place for second guessing ourselves. In addition, the last difference is love that is missing in the Shari'a law. The laws of the Bible are there because God loves us and wants to keep us from being mislead and have to suffer. The Shari'a law is a harsh set of laws set up because Allah said so and so it is. The Shari'a Law is a harsh law on those who don't abide by it and in some cases so is the Bible but the Bible offers redemption salvation and second chances that we have on earth. Shari'a law does not contain anything like that which shows love and compassion.
