So, the whole "Quran and Sunnah" thing is pretty much horseshit unless you absolutely, positively take every word in the Quran at its absolute face value. And even that's hard to do. As we see with Amin and his "light beating" of wives.
Well, by "beating" your wife/wives there is so many rules to the point that you could replace the word with "light, painless tap" and not change the law. It's the spirit of the law that's more important anyways, following everything to the letter would either make you a fundamentalist or just really weird. There needs to be a balance.
"Balance" Great. But you do realize that is idealistic and naive, yes? The interpretations are still going to differ. You're never going to have the perfect "iSlAmIc" country. Humans are fundamentally flawed. That's why you have people who still advocate for slavery in this day and age *cough*.
