Document Summary
Islam forbids the imposition of its belied by any type of force. Islam tries to demolish political and material powers that stand between people and islam that force one people to bow before another. According to islam, the way to establish god"s rule is not by giving priests the authority to rule (like in the rule of the church), nor is it by having a spokesman of god become a ruler. To establish allah"s rule, it is meant that his laws should be enforced and that the final decisions in all matters will be according to these laws.
