Commentary: This book is about critically analyzing those laws of Pakistan which we have made apparently in accordance with Islam. The study is meant to consider as to whether we have done it well or not? Have we put reason in the service of religion or against it? Can the laws based on Islam, the religion of reason and nature, be unreasonable? Societies take positions according to their circumstances, which they later have to vary in accordance with the needs of the time. This happens when intelligentsia of the society comes out with novel ideas, which in time get accepted by the society. Such ideological transformations, however, cannot take place if a stance is legalized. Legalizing a social stance is like fossilizing it. This situation produces a scenario where society, even if it decides to evolve with the changing times, has to carry the burden of such time-frozen concepts.
