I think it was Taliban but they never had any clue about the right interpretation of Islam. I had seen a movie once which talked about Afghanistan and Taliban, it showed that if some smoke came out of a house during Ramadaan at daytime, it was a crime. You can't force anyone to fast.
Under some dictators it was Pakistan some time ago. I think in the 70s and 80s but got hammered and hammered.
Now whatever fraction of Shariah you can see as part of the government is only in Saudi Arabia.
If Allah helps you, none can overcome you; and if He forsakes you, who is there after Him that can help you? And in Allah (Alone) let believers put their trust.
Surah Ale Imran : 160
It was narrated that Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) said:
The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) climbed up Uhud, accompanied by Abu Bakr, ‘Umar and ‘Uthmaan, and the mountain shook with them. He struck it with his foot and said: “Stand firm, O Uhud, for there is no one on you but a Prophet or a Siddeeq or two martyrs.”
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (3483)
Allah (Subhaanahu Wa Taala) does not inspire seeking forgiveness in a slave whom he wishes to punish.
mecca and madinah are Islamic, not too sure about the authority over them...
I heard they follow a particular sect of Islam. I read about it but I don't understand what purpose it serves....
I was looking at myself talking to myself and I realized this conversation...I was having with myself looking at myself was a conversation with myself that I needed to have with myself.
^why not? should there be a place in mind which is not a country?
there maybe some places perhaps villages/towns where the shariah is implemented? i recall you mentioning in one of your posts awhile ago some place is Pakistan? why's that such a big deal?

...desperate for husnul-khitaam...
please make dua that Allah grants me a good end (to my life). please make dua that Allah guides me.
you also have to remember that most of these mid east "countries" were made after WW1 - they are all modern states.
Do you think the pious don't sin?
They merely:
Veiled themselves and didn't flaunt it
Sought forgiveness and didn't persist
Took ownership of it and don't justify it
And acted with excellence after they had erred - Ibn al-Qayyim
Many islamic countries have a dual system of secular courts and religious courts. As far as I know, Saudi Arabia is a monarchy and the Qur'an is the constitution of the country plus it is governed on the basis of Sharia.
Amazing, it seems that one of the top is not the top Islamic country/place is the UK and there are so many members here who abhor our values and who support the values of those that would do us harm!!

Unfortunately, there is none.
