There is no doubt that uncontrolled democracy is Haram. The democracy in which the majority opinion is allowed to do legislation against the rules set by Islam is ofcourse in a head on collision with Islam but what about controlled democracies? A controlled democracy can make it binding upon the elected members constitutionally not to legislate against Islam and if they try to it shall be deemed as unconstitutional by a court of law.

The second form of controlled democracy can be that there shall be a constant council of scholars and the council collectively shall be taken as the head of the state. Under this council a democratically elected assembly is established which can look after the issues of of public welfare and has nothing to do with legislation.
