Re: Follow Islam vs. follow Madhab

Just a small example, the Quran tells the believing woman to cover themselves up so that they may be regarded as believing women and be not molested. An interpretation I have heard from Pakitsan is that since every woman in Pakistan is a Muslim, there is no need to "cover up" and they are all "believing women" (i.e. Muslims) and in light of an Islamic government, there is no fear of being molested. Such interpretations are dangerous, and are not matters of Ikhtilaf.
Wallahu Alim.

A) Women are not told to cover up for fear of being molested. Women are molested all over the world, regardless of what they wear.
B) Whomever told you such a thing is obviously not the sharpest tool in the shed, as it is a extremely primitive form of "logic" (for lack of a better term), more closely related to a fallacy.
C) Pakistan has an "Islamic" government? Since when is a military dictatorship "Islamic"?
