Limitations


Question

Is it right to say that Islam allows Muslims to do everything but with limitations?

Answer

I am afraid it would not be right to hold that Islam allows Muslims everything but with limitations. A single application of liquor, for instance, to this principle would reveal that it is not applicable to the whole of the Islamic Shari`ah. No such feature can be labeled to Islam nor does it serve any purpose. We invite you to ask your questions with more specific examples of what you may have in mind.
