Is Islam compatible with democracy (the rule of the majority)? Is democracy infallible?

Is Islam compatible with democracy (the rule of the majority)? Is democracy infallible?

16:90 Indeed, Allah commands justice and good, and giving to relatives, and forbids immorality and bad and oppression. He admonishes you so that you may take heed.

(In democracy, the majority could oppress minority groups, but in a religious state (Islam), oppression is forbidden)(Allah knows best)

7:33 Say, "My Lord has only forbidden immoralities - what is apparent of it and what is concealed, and sin, and oppression without right, and that you associate with Allah that for which He has not sent down any authority, and that you say about Allah what you do not know."

50:45 We know best what they say, and you are not the one to compel them. But remind with the Qur’an whoever fears My threat.

20:98 Your God is only Allah, the One, there is no god but He. He has encompassed all things in knowledge.

(The majority does not know what is better for themselves unless they follow the Scripture)(Allah knows best)

2:216 Fighting is prescribed upon you while it is disliked by you. But perhaps you dislike a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah knows, while you do not know.

4:127 And they seek your ruling concerning women. Say, "Allah gives you the ruling about them and what has been recited to you in the Book concerning the orphans women to whom you do not give what is ordained for them and you desire to marry them, and the weak among children and to stand for orphans with justice. And whatever good you do, then indeed, Allah is All-Knowing of it.

(God is the One Who set rules concerning something)(Allah knows best)

5:68 Say, "O People of the Book, you are not on anything until you stand firmly by the Torah and the Gospel, and what has been revealed to you from your Lord. And that which has been revealed to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in rebellion and disbelief. So do not grieve over the disbelieving people.

2:243 Did you not see those who went out from their homes and they (were in) thousands fearing death? Then Allah said to them, "Die;" then He restored them to life. Indeed, Allah is surely Possessor of bounty for mankind, but most of the people are not grateful.

(Most of the people are ungrateful (2:243), and disbeliever (16:83, 26:8), and defiantly disobedient (57:26, 57:27))(Bad people could be elected in democracy (e.g. Adolf Hitler, Donald Trump,… far-right politicians, radicals, etc.))(Allah knows best)

12:103 And most of the mankind will not be believers, even though you desire.

3:110 You are the best of people raised for mankind - enjoining the right and forbidding the wrong and believing in Allah. And if the People of the Book had believed, surely it would have been good for them. Among them are believers, but most of them are defiantly disobedient.

36:60 Did I not enjoin upon you, O Children of Adam, that do not worship Satan, indeed, he is for you a clear enemy, … 36:62 And indeed, he led astray a great multitude of you. Then did you not use reason?

2:195 And spend in the way of Allah and let not your own hands throw yourselves into destruction. And do good; indeed, Allah loves the good-doers.

17:11 And man prays for evil (as) he prays for good. And man is ever hasty.

(It is better a president or king or any authority, being good and generous, than a bunch of democratic parties oppressing or wronging people or dissenting and confronting themselves, or lying to their fellow citizens, or miscounting votes in order to win, the spread of fake news, etc. (e.g. far-right politicians commit such illegal things))(An example of a non-democratic country is the United Arab Emirates, they do not have such confrontation, and for example, the UAE Government allocates land or provides free housing to their citizens and so)(Allah knows best)

11:59 And this was Aad, they rejected the Signs of their Lord and disobeyed His Messengers, and followed the command of every obstinate tyrant.

53:23 They are not except names which you have named, you and your forefathers, for which Allah has not sent down any authority. They do not follow except assumption and what their souls desire. And certainly the guidance has come to them from their Lord. 53:24 Or is for man what he wishes?

68:36 What is with you? How do you judge? 68:37 Or is for you a book wherein you learn, 68:38 indeed, for you in it what you choose?

28:75 And We will draw forth from every nation a witness and We will say, "Bring your proof?" Then they will know that the truth (is) for Allah, and lost from them what they used to invent.

2:256 There is no compulsion in the religion. Surely the right course has become clear from the wrong. So whoever disbelieves in false deities and believes in Allah has grasped the firm handhold with no break in it. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.

(Those in a religious state cannot be forced to believe)(Allah knows best)

29:8 And We have enjoined upon man goodness to his parents, but if they both strive against you to make you associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, then do not obey both of them. To Me is your return, and I will inform you about what you used to do.

19:14 And dutiful to his parents, and he was not a disobedient tyrant.

10:99 And if your Lord had willed, those who are on the earth all of them would surely have believed. Then, will you compel mankind until they become believers? 10:100 And it is not for a soul to believe except by the permission of Allah. And He will place the wrath on those who do not use reason.

(There is no freedom of religion in democratic countries, because they also have the man-made concept of “freedom of speech”, while in Islam, that which they say is defamation, and false speech)(Allah knows best)

26:128 Do you construct on every elevation a sign, amusing yourselves, 26:129 And (you) take for yourselves strongholds that you may live forever? 26:130 And when you seize, you seize (as) tyrants. 26:131 So fear Allah and obey me.

26:151 And (do) not obey (the) command (of) the transgressors, 26:152 Those who spread corruption in the earth and (do) not reform."

28:41 And We made them leaders inviting to the Fire, and (on the) Day (of) [the] Resurrection they will not be helped.

34:32 Those who were arrogant will say to those who were oppressed, "Did we avert you from the guidance after [when] it had come to you? Nay, (but) you were criminals." 34:33 And those who were oppressed will say to those who were arrogant, "Nay, (it was) a plot (by) night and (by) day when you were ordering us that we/(to) disbelieve in Allah and we set up for Him equals." But they will conceal the regret when they see the punishment. And We will put shackles on (the) necks (of) those who disbelieved. Will they be recompensed except (for) what they used to do?

6:121 And (do) not eat of that on which Allah’s name has not been mentioned, and indeed, it (is) grave disobedience. And indeed, the devils inspire [to] their friends so that they dispute with you, and if you obey them, indeed, you (would) be the polytheists.

(According to Verse 6:121, obeying the devils is polytheism)(Allah knows best)

6:116 And if you obey most of those on the earth, they will mislead you from the way of Allah. They follow nothing except assumption, and they are only guessing.

30:31 Turning to Him, and fear Him and establish the prayer and (do) not be of the polytheists 30:32 Of those who divide their religion and become sects, each party rejoicing in what they have.

(If you differ from the religion, it implies polytheism (aka obeying people/Satan instead of obeying God))(Allah knows best)

37:71 And verily, most (of) the former (people), went astray, before them,

39:64 Say, "Is (it) other than Allah (that) you order me (to) worship, O ignorant ones?"

40:47 And when they will dispute in the Fire, then the weak will say to those who were arrogant, "Indeed, we [we] were for you/(your) followers, so can you avert from us a portion of the Fire?" 40:48 Those who (were) arrogant will say, "Indeed, we (are) all in it. Indeed, Allah has certainly judged between (His) slaves"

76:24 So be patient for (the) Command (of) your Lord and (do) not obey any sinner or disbeliever from (among) them.

25:52 So (do) not obey the disbelievers, and strive (against) them with it, a great striving.
