Brother, I agree with Shariah part, but not the democracy part. Opinions of many Ulema are anti-democracy. This is intellectual laziness at best and fitna at worst. This also feeds the rhetoric of TTP. Not good.
I have yet to see an honest effort of part of anti-democracy Ulema to come up with support for their opinions. It is easy for them to reject things, since they begin and end their life in Mosques. Good for them, but they really do not understand. Islam and democracy are not mutually exclusive. In fact my view is that Quran and Hadith support governance based on consensus. Remember Quranic injunction for 'Mushawarat'. Also remember Hadith supporting 'Mushawarat', and support for majority opinion. In Islamic countries no government can legislate against Islamic principles, but then there is no system of governance recommended per se. Whatever that exists in relation to governance and community life is actually supportive of democracy. Perhaps a system which combines elements of Democracy, and Chinese philosophy on governance can be a good model for us. But then again, Ulema who for the longest time (12 centuries) supported Kingship can hardly tell us now how we ought to govern ourselves in accordance with Allah's laws. They really should not support opinions leading to Fitna.
I am aware of arguments presented to reject democracy, but perhaps you can change my mind with some fresh argument...?
