As long as Islam was in power, there was no problem in understanding the views and opinions of the main stream of Islam represented by the Jamhur 'Ulama'. Onc the power passed into the Islamically weaker hands, the anti-Islamic elements worked for its detriment, with all their abilities and capacities, causing Islam being criticized to the basic and essential judicial sources, core and non-core as well.
