what is right and wrong and how to be just people.
Democracy and people being free to choose their own faith are
excellent outcomes of religious moral values. All constitutions stem
from religion and nobody could have drawn up a constitution without
religion. Right, wrong and human rights were all taught to us by God.
Everyone can choose his own faith and live his life as he wishes.
According to the Qur'an, nobody can be coerced into changing his
faith, and no life style can be imposed through violence. As God
reveals in verse 256 of Surat al-Baqara, "There is no compulsion where
the religion is concerned…" And displeasure with others' ideas, beliefs
or lifestyles must not be expressed through insults, violence, and
aggression. Instead, we must follow verse 6 of Surat al-Kafirun and
say, "You have your faith and I have my faith."
Laws based on religious moral values stating that you cannot
impose what you believe to be true on others must be included in the
Yemeni constitution. If the people of Yemen act with that knowledge,
it will be possible to establish peace and security throughout the entire
community.
Under the new constitution, the state must be defined as a vehicle
for establishing the happiness and well-being of the Yemeni people.
The rights of the people must also be guaranteed
under the constitution and sanctions must be
imposed against any violations of it. In this
manner, the future of the Yemeni people can be
secured with freedom, peace, and happiness for
all.
