<br />Dears I am also a supporter of Democracy but at the same time I agree to Schuaeb that there are so many ills in the current democratic system.Because in this system people are not weighted(in terms of knowledge and aamal) but are only counted.So especially in Pakistan where majority of people are illiterate and are not aware of even the basics of Islam,this systems looks a little controvercial.
I wonder if our parliment passes a bill,suppose that if it allows mercy killing in Pakistan,(which Islam doesn't allow) then will it become Islamic?
But still if we think we have no substitute and in my opinion this is almost impossible in todays era to have khilafat system because choosing the shura members will the first obstacle in its way,means what will be the procedure to choose its members?
So the only solution in my opinion is to enrich the people in education and islamic knowlede as well in order to enable them to differentiate between Haq and Batil,and it will automatically modify the current democratic system.

Agreed to your view.
But I must add here the democracy we had is never a solution to our problems, infact it had been the problem itself at the first place. Contrary to general statement, it will never mature itself into proper democracy. In fact our leadership, so called democratic, have always paved the path for autocrats. I regret but the regime of autocrats had been better. Untill there are BBs and Sharifs, my vote will be for generals.
