{{R from move}}Islamic democracy refers to a political system that incorporates democratic principles while also adhering to Islamic values and principles. It seeks to strike a balance between democratic governance and the principles derived from Islamic teachings. In an Islamic democracy, citizens have the right to participate in the decision-making process through free and fair elections, and their choices are respected. |

At the same time, the legal and political framework is influenced by Islamic law (Sharia) to varying degrees, depending on the specific country or context. This may include the application of Islamic principles in family law, criminal justice, and other aspects of governance. |

It's important to understand that interpretations of Islamic democracy can vary widely, and different societies may implement it in different ways, leading to diverse practices and policies across the Muslim world. The aim is to find a balance between democratic ideals and Islamic principles to create a system that is both inclusive and reflective of the values of the population it governs. |
