Mohammed Abed al-Jabri "Avoid the hudud Penalties when in Doubt" *
Since the modern Arab Awakening, which soon swept across the entire Muslim world, with the efforts of Jamal al-Din al-Afghani (d. 1897CE) and Muammad ‘Abduh (d. 1905CE), the Muslim masses have used the slogan of ‘application of Islamic shariah´ to propound to the masses, the alternative which they hoped would take them to the enjoyment of a free and honourable life.

The main idea is always oriented toward the creation of an Islamic order (an-nizam al-islami). Hasan Al-Banna sees in Islam the only teaching that can ensure social progress and well-being and that is the key to the resolving of all basic problems of mankind.
