No scholar or religious leader can change a thing about islamic Law, they are not allowed to do so, Islam is a complete religion that does not require fine tuning, unlike christianity which has been manipulated to suite people, Islam remains the same throughout the ages for it is the true word of God, unchangeable, unmanipulatable.
It is not for you, or any other human to change the rule of God. |
All I am saying is that these scholars can issue a fatwa changing the current interpretation of this verse from being applied litterally to a moral boundary (like punishment or retribution in the afterlife). After all, these scholars are officialliy assigned to be the interpreters of islamic laws, no?
