In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Peace be upon you,

As elections approach, politicians debate about what they think is best for a country's success. It is a good time reflect upon what God says. A nation that upholds God's laws is guaranteed prominence among the nations of the world, victory, prosperity, and happiness (Quran 10:62-64, 16:97, 24:55, 41:30-31). On the other hand, a nation that violates God's laws incurs a miserable life (Quran 20:124). A nation that upholds God's laws is guaranteed to be a great nation. This is not a mere idealistic dream; since God is in full control (Quran 10:61). His guarantees and promises are done.

"If only the people of the various communities believed and maintained a righteous life, we would have showered them with blessings from the heaven and the earth" [Quran 7:96] 

A nation following God's system is characterized by maximum freedom, guaranteed human rights, productive investment, social justice, unanimous consensus in the political process, and more.

Peace.
