There are differences between religions. One of them is that we believe the chosen leaders from God are chosen through knowledge of God that they won't deviate. This is while for example Solomon deviates in the Bible after being chosen.
I believe my religion is rational and not only that but...
I think there is a disagreement with Islam and non-Muslims on how clear the truth is. I think Quran says the guidance has made been made clear from error.
Yet from my perspective, God is in the horizon, you exist in his vision and your actions all get accounted through his judgment. You not listening and seeing this is not that it's unclear.
Yet, disbelievers insist proof is not presented. Quran in reply shows even when clear proofs are presented by Messengers, people respond that no proof is presented and that what they say is unclear and not understandable.
It's a rational response. You can look at it from viewpoint of...
There might not be there might be from your perspective, perhaps the guidance itself gives you the discerning methodology. You won't know if you don't give the guidance a chance.
The problem is Muslims, Christians and Jews all did the same mistake of choosing their own fallible leadership and following it with God chosen leadership and his guidance. This leads to corruption in the religion.
You've seen people choose from Quran and hadiths what they wish for their own caprice. You haven't seen pure Islam in action yet. The pure Islam in action will happen when the Mahdi returns.
Sure, but from my paradigm, the Quran predicts the "this makes no sense" "the words are unclear" response to proofs of oneness of God and other proofs.
They rely on other than God and his rope. They mix fallible guidance and leadership with God's guidance and leadership by his authority. This is the problem. If you don't do that mistake, the guidance of God will guide.
You seen oppressive Kahen Taghootic leadership call themselves Islamic Caliphs that even justified slavery and interpreted Quran to suggest that God allowed slavery.
You haven't seen Quran in rule form because the successors of Mohammad (s) didn't get to rule.
