Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
The evidence indicates the obligation to rule by Allah's law in all disputes, and the impermissibility of resorting to man-made laws or customs that contravene the Sharia. Rulers of Islamic countries are advised to rule by Allah's law by forming a Sharia court composed of trustworthy scholars to resolve their disputes, and to beware of resorting to non-Islamic bodies such as the International Court of Justice.
