12.7 Musulunci da Shari'ar Alkalanci
12.7 Islam and the Judiciary
Ana iya ganin azabobi masu ban tsoro a bainar jama'a, kamar yankewar hannun barawo, ko kisan masu kisan kai. Lallai waɗannan abubuwa ne masu ban tsoro da za a yi su a fili, kuma za su bar tasiri mai dorewa a zukata da tunanin al'umma; domin al'umma za ta ga tsananin wahalar mai laifi.
One can expect to see some horrendous punishments in a public display, like cutting the hand of the thief, or the execution of murderers. These indeed are terrible sights, and will take place in open areas, leaving a lasting effect on the hearts and minds of the society; for society will witness the intense suffering of the criminal.
Saboda haka, daga yanzu duk wanda yake tunanin aikata irin wannan laifi zai yi tunani sau biyu. Har ma tsararraki masu zuwa, wadanda ba su shaida abin da ya faru ba, za su yi tunani sau biyu. Gaskiya dai irin wadannan hukunce-hukunce ba a aiwatar da su akai-akai, domin a dabi'ance suna da karfin hana aikata laifi sosai. Haka kuma, yana da matukar wahala a yanke hannun barawo, domin shaidar zato (shaidar yanayi) ba ta isa ba. Don haka, bangaren shari'a yana tabbatar da cewa babu hukunci ba daidai ba, abin da ke ƙara bayyana a matsayin alamar zamaninmu.
So in future anyone even thinking of committing such a crime will think twice. Even those who did not witness the event in future generations will think twice. For in fact such punishments are not meted out frequently at all, as by their nature they have such a powerful deterrent effect. Furthermore, it is extremely difficult to cut the hand of the thief, for circumstantial evidence is not sufficient. Thus, the judiciary ensures that there would be no wrongful convictions, which seem more and more to be a sign of our times.
Hukunce-hukunce masu tsanani ba su ne kaɗai hanyar hana aikata laifi ba. Musulunci yana magance matsalolin ta kowace fuska. Tsarin tattalin arziki yana tabbatar da bukatun mutane kuma yana rage sha'awar sata. Tsarin ilimi kuma, ta hanyar tunatar da al'umma game da alhakinsu ga Mahalicci, yana rage sha'awar sata. Don haka dukkan tsare-tsare suna aiki cikin jituwa. Dalilin da ya sa gwamnatoci kamar ta Saudiyya da Sudan ba sa samun nasara shi ne cewa suna aiwatar da sassan Musulunci ne kawai tare da dokokin mutane, ta yadda suke hukunta bisa Musulunci amma ba sa tabbatar da bukatun mutane bisa Musulunci ba.
Severe punishments are not the only means to deter crime. Islam tackles the problems from all angles. The economic system secures the needs of people and cuts the want for stealing. The education system, through reminding society of accountability to the Creator, cuts the desire for stealing. So all the systems work in harmony. The reason why regimes like Saudi Arabia and Sudan fail is because they only implement parts of Islam side by side with man-made law, such that they punish by Islam but do not secure the needs by Islam.
Ka yi tunanin wata al'umma da ke da jin tsaro. Ba za a bukaci a juya kafada a duba baya ba yayin tafiya a titunan dare saboda tsoron a kai maka hari, kuma ba za a bukaci saka makullai na karin kofa, taga da akwatin wasiku ba saboda tsoron a yi sata. Wannan ba mafarki ba ne - hakika haka lamarin yake tsawon karnoni a karkashin Daular Musulunci.
Imagine a society where there is a sense of security. There would be no need to turn over your shoulder when walking the streets at night for fear of being assaulted, and no need to buy extra door locks, window locks and letterbox locks for fear of being burgled. This is no fantasy - indeed it was the case for centuries under the Islamic State.
Bugu da ƙari, Musulunci a cikin tsarin shari'arsa yana kare dabi'u waɗanda al'umma ta raina, misali girma da mutunci. A Musulunci, zargin wani da zina laifi ne da ake hukunta shi, alhali kuma a yau jaridu suna ganin hakan a matsayin hanyar samun kuɗi.
Furthermore, Islam in its judiciary upholds values that are downtrodden in society, for example honour. In Islam accusing someone of adultery is a punishable offence, whereas for newspapers today it is a source of revenue.
Ko a ce misali, batun imani. A Musulunci, duk wanda ya zagi kowane annabi na Allah (SWT), ana iya kashe shi. Wannan na iya bayyana kamar mai tsanani. Amma tabbas imani ta fi cancanta da kariya aƙalla kamar dukiya, domin a Ranar Alƙiyama imaninmu ne zai cece mu, ba dukiyarmu ba.
Or take as another example the issue of belief. In Islam if anyone insults any prophet of Allah (swt) they are subject to be killed. This may appear harsh. But surely belief is at least as worthy of protection as property, for on the day of Judgement it is our belief that will save us, not our property.
