Introduction
Nowadays, Muslim facing so many challenges development of liberalization and globalization, which is signed by the emerged of many, misleads idea and free interpretations of law theorem in Islam. There are also emerge many contrary and claiming each other as the correct side. Now, these two poles among liberal and extreme side progressively grows and expands as did khawarij and murjiah in the past.
This time, it is seen too many activities which is behalf of religious acts but actually opposing and against the majority decision and did not shows the true face of Islam as the best religion. These all minorities groups (extremes and liberals) create Islam to be misunderstand by others.

Most of this ummah was forgetting the message from Rasulullah (P.B.U.H.) which the meaning is: "I have left two things for you, in which you hold these tightly you will never get lost. Both are the Holy Book and my prophetic tradition".
Many people this time was mislead by the other rules and mistakes in interpreting the law theorem in Islam. Some people became too tight and abundant, and some others became too weak from world obsession. Some people destroy with bomb, and some others destroy with menticide (thought control) and intellectual hardness.
"O ye who believe! Ye have charge of your own souls. He who erreth cannot injure you if ye are rightly guided. Unto Allah ye will all return; and then He will inform you of what ye used to do".
(The meaning of Qur'an, 5:105)
