Feel free to that, just be aware that your approach lacks any kind of validity and would be regarded as quixotic at best.
Most hadiths (I think that's what you are referring to) have weak veracity and weighted accordingly.
As I stated elsewhere your approach shares a great deal with the Salafist/Wahabist doctrine but, sadly, not a great deal with 1400 years of Islamic thought. Once again, to use the analogy of the US Constitution, your approach is akin to finding a copy of the Constitution in 2015 and trying to produce a functioning government from scratch with no prior knowledge. Sure you'd be able to produce something, but th chances that it would remotely resemble the real thing are slim.
- acqq 11y agoI can read the constitution to get the ideas of those who wrote it just like I can read the Islamic text to get their ideas. To know the exact implementation of the ideas we'd have to study the US law or the law of some other country (and we are sure to see that not all ideas are even implemented in practice). But to learn about the general ideas, reading the original material is actually enough. And it's actually a good exercise to read both the US constitution and then read Quran and compare the ideas in them. Let's start with the constitution. I can search through that too. http://www.usconstitution.net/const.txt http://www.usconstitution.net/const.txt God is never mentioned, religion is mentioned twice: "no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States." "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
