Basic misconception in this regard is that Deen (islamic system) is thought to be no more than an ethical code. Deen is not the collection of a few moral values, it is a comprehensive system of life covering all aspects of human life. The moral values become operative within this system, or in other words this system provides that sound base on which the edifice of these moral values is established. Have you ever ponder over this phenomenon that the whole world says that telling a lie is bad; dishonesty is intensely opprobrious and deception is very contemptible misdemeanor but in spite of all this the whole world tell lies, corruption is rampant every where and cheating is in full swing. The question is why is this all happening? In spite of condemning and cursing all these things why has man taken to them? Considering these acts the most detestable and hateful but why men is not refraining from them? Its reason is that either the people acknowledge these moral values just as of formality or they have their foundation on emotions alone. They know nothing as to why these values should be followed and why should they not be violated. You ask a person why you should not tell a lie, you would realize that he has no reasonable reply to this question. With all the reason and rhyme at his command, he would not be able to respond to the why of your question.  He will not be able to explain to you rationally what would you loose by telling lies and which gain you would accrue by speaking the truth. And since man adopts only that which gives him gain and abandons that which causes him loss, therefore his acquiescence to this effect is either simply traditional or imitation or the product of emotional inclinations. He neither develops insight of these values  nor rationally makes them the way of his life. Deen (True Islamic System) provides those basic concepts, which conspicuously bring forth the purpose and ultimate aim of human life. The purpose of life defines the proper value of every thing and when these values are identified it can very easily be understood which one is profit bearing and which one is loss accruing; which one is higher and which one is lower on the continuum of values.

Deen is the name of a system. This system meant that human beings should live together in such a manner that every individual should have an equal opportunity for to develop its full potential or self-realisation. A system in which each individual should become a means for the development of potentials of others and in this way finds way of his/her Own development of potentials. In this system, the needs of the natural life are very elementary things. A system that is responsible for the development of all natural potentials, cannot forget the natural needs of human beings.Obviously, such a great system will have many elements of various kinds. Any tiny element of the system will be unique and vital and will have a role in producing the results of the system, while the whole system will be paralysed if that tiny element failed to function, just like a loose of a screw of railway track will stop all trains.Various injunctions in the Islamic system have equal importance. When that system was established, all actions those were in accordance with the system principles played role in bringing out the results. But when the system vanished, its elements remained like a railway junkyard, with out-of-order signals and broken railway tracks. We heard about the blessings of this (like railway) system, but did not see it in practice. Now we consider the old signals and broken railway track (the elements of Shariah) a means of blessings of the system.

Islam is not a religion. It is a comprehensive system of life in which obedience is collectively carried on by means of the state enterprise. The Islamic State or System is responsible for implementing the commandments of Allah Almighty for making the people obey them. The Messenger peace be upon him first of all implemented such a system, the objective of which was to get the Ummah obey the commandments of God Almighty. So the meaning of the Quran's term, Obedience of Allah Almighty and His Messenger was obeying the commandments of God Almighty, not individually on one's own accord but by means of that system which the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him has established. Allah Almighty laws were close fitted in the Quran and His Messenger peace be upon him as the central authority of the Divine system made the members of the society obey these constitution in consonance with the necessity of the time, place and circumstances.

Islam (Deen) , along with these basic concepts, provides the practical system through which these theoretical values take the form of reality and then the man within their concrete results sees of his own, how gainful or harmful it is to act or not according to these values. Being affected by this, his emotions and feelings follow the proper channel for their own operation and since emotions are the impetus of actions his life synchronizes with these higher values. This is called the exaltation of character and neatness of conduct.

The reality is that Islam is not as is commonly believed a religion, in which each one of us can worship the God of our own wishful concepts. Islam is a collective system for life in which we are collectively subservient to the Law of Quran. Islamic republic or system is responsible for legislating and imposing God's Laws and having them implemented in the nation. The first Islamic nation was established by the Messenger Muhammad peace be upon him, the purpose and aim of which was to abide by God's Law. In Quran's terminology it is to follow Allah Almighty and does not mean to follow ones wishful thinking of our own belief. It meant to follow the system that the Messenger Muhammad peace be upon him had established according to God's / Allah Almighty commands, which are present in the Quran.
