so ive been openly chatting with muslims to see diffetent perspectives on islam than i had. I incline more to the less literal type of interpritations, and the few muslims that gave me a new perspective did so saying to take the overall theme of quran (preaching goodness and kindess, prayer and charity etc) and overlay that on any hadith that might not seem fitting to the theme.
my question that keeps coming up in these discussions though, is wasnt islam perfected 1400 years ago? it was perfected and made to last till the end of times, right? but wouldnt that imply the salafi interpriation? (—which im opposed to—that the religion and rulings etc stay the exact same as they were unil the end of days?)
i wanted to know the majority of muslims opinion on this, do we go by the same laws and rulings that were applicable then, or can they adjust/change/adapt and progress to fit today and continue doing so until the end of times? (and if so, how could it be considered it was ‘perfected’ then, if needing change?)
please note: this is a sincere inquiry, and im not trying to offend, troll, or start any debate... i’m hoping to get a better idea of overall muslim perspective on this topic because ive come from a strict salafi type mentality, and i have no adversion to viewing islam in a different perspective if i can sort out all doubts etc
appreciate the help
