The answer

We do not have the power to change Allah’s rulings. It is incumbent upon a Muslim to submit and surrender to what the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, has decreed, as stated in the Almighty's saying: "The only statement of the believers when they are called to Allah and His Messenger to judge between them is that they say, 'We hear and we obey.' And those are the successful." And His saying: "So let those who oppose his command beware, lest trial befall them or there strike them a painful punishment."
