Religion should be kept out of politics.

I agree Somalia under sharia law is a dissaster

Ms. Butt, Should simply butt out!

Some people have hijacked islam and used it for their own personal agenda. A true sincere leader would use Islam properly and not abuse it, Islam is the solution Somalia, Chechnya, and Afghanistan. Secularism leads to corruption and people tend to stray away from the religion. Don't badmouth Islam because a few bad apples abuse the religion. It is the politicians and false sheikhs who are the problem not Islam.

I agree

Secularism leads to corruption and people tend to stray away from the religion

A transparent, open government that delivers health, education and empowerement for its people is the solution to corruption.

Islam can do that and more and secularism can make the leaders think they are above the law while Islam only adheres to Allah's laws so no one can override them. Give me an example of one secular country which is transparent?

Which can vary depending upon people's interpretation as we can see from the situation in Somalia.

Leila, this is very good news. Hopefully some baraka will flow from this.

Allah's law are clear and concise, these people in somalia are not using the essence of shariah law, which alleviates people from suffering. Shariah is clear and concise there are only some variations which people dispute about these are usually minor things. Don't be tricked by the people who are hijacking Islam.

I still strongely believe that Islam is the solution to all somalia's problems. Its a great shame that Pigs such as shabaab are ruining Islam on peoples minds.
The TFG can and will be an islamic government that makes the interest of the somali people come first.
A government that protects somali land and resources as well as delivering health-care, education and security for the population.

Sharia is not about cutting arms and beheading people, it is so much more and somalia can really use it

How is Islam the solution to Somalia ? we haven't become muslims a week ago!!
Islam is not something you just pull out of a Book , no matter how holly that Book is .
Islam is about BASIC decency , respect for all lives and yourself .
Salafi..suufi ..all that is nonesense .Our Laws (in our part of the land)are INSPIRED by the Sharia and that is good enough for me .Religion in ,my opinion and as I understand it , is the socle in my life and Allah my compass.The Fear of God that I have in my heart is what keeps me from hurting anybody else , and that's the most important thing to me. I am not really familiar with Sharia Law , although I suspect it is vastly more comprehensive than the oppressive application it is given by those who claim to love Allah more than the rest of us , I just wouldn't want anybody to be rendered an injustice in the name of Allah .
I will never kill or hurt anybody in the name of Allah , for NOBODY is really a 100% sure about his standings vis a vis his Creator . I'm of the "keep it simple " people

^ sad !

Horta somalia must have Sharia, as muslims this cannot be argued over. What we need is to have learned Islamic shloars run the country alongside the government.
We won't implement the cutting of a hand for a thief until Somalia has peace and stability, without war and famine.
Hands cannot be cut when a country is in famine.
What we need to do is kill and eliminate the Khawarij who wish to drag somalia in the war on terror and make somalia AQ'S biggest training camp.
We also need an islamic government that makes it, its key priority to protect the interest of the somali people, honour the somali flag iyo have great intellect in politics.
We need a strong islamic government that is committed to the liberation of Ogaden, NFD.

I think that the President sheikh shariff could willing could be the key to a strong islamic government that ensures that somalia is ruled by shaira by educated Islamic scholars, but nor a shabaab pig who only knows 2 surahs from the quraan and a few hadiths. Who thinks that islam is all about cutting hands, beheading and suicide bombing and pledging loyalty to some dirty arab hiding in a cave
