Q: What is the Islamic understanding about democracy, Is there any place for it in Islam?The 2/3 of the Mohammedan population who don't support sharia law are the equivalent of "pro-choice Catholics," i.e., not practicing.A: The common form of democracy prevalent at the moment is representative democracy, in which the citizens do not exercise their right of legislating and issuing political decrees in person, but rather through representatives chosen by them. The constitution of a democratic country will be largely influenced by the needs and wants of its people. Thus, if its people want casinos, bars, gay marriages, prostitution, etc. then with sufficient public pressure, all these vices can be accommodated for. From this, it becomes simple to understand that there can never be scope for a democratic rule from the Islamic point of view.

Islamic law (Sharia) does not tolerate "moderation".
America will fall to Islam within our children's lifetime.
Muslims in America once they achieve political power will eventually vote the Constitution out of existence.
