In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
"This day I have perfected for you your religion, and completed My favor upon you, and have approved for you Islam as your religion" (5:3).
Introduction
1. The current problems faced by any country are, in essence, a reflection of the challenges confronting the entire human race. At their core, they are the problem of peace on this planet we inhabit. Therefore, every nation must approach solving its issues in a manner that aligns with the universal pursuit of establishing a global government - one that unifies the administration of our planet and bases the relationships between nations on law instead of diplomacy and treaties, thereby instituting order and peace.
2. The primary issue that any nation's constitution must address is resolving the apparent conflict between the needs of the individual and those of the community. The true need of the individual is absolute personal freedom, while the need of the community is comprehensive social justice. Each individual is an end in themselves and must never be treated as a means to another's ends. At the same time, the community is the most effective means of producing the free individual, one who enjoys absolute personal freedom. Therefore, it is essential to organize society on foundations of freedom and tolerance that make this possible.
3. We consider the constitution, in its entirety, to represent the nation's ultimate ideal expressed in legal form. This ideal serves as a goal for the nation to realize through its government apparatus by consciously developing its current capabilities along practical lines drawn by legislation and education, and implemented through administration, the judiciary, and public opinion.
4. There is no man so perfect as to be entrusted with the freedoms of others. The price of absolute individual freedom is the constant vigilance of each person in safeguarding it and their readiness to bear the consequences of their actions.
5. To achieve all the aforementioned objectives, we derive our constitution solely from the Quran. This is particularly because the Quran, being at once a constitution for the individual and a constitution for the community, possesses a unique and exceptional ability to harmonize the individual's need for absolute personal freedom with the community's need for comprehensive social justice. It achieves this coordination by shaping the means to serve their intended ends with utmost perfection.
