Divine religions consist of two parts. One aspect is that of
spiritual laws which constitute the foundation of all divine religions. They
are immutable and unalterable. The second aspect consists of social laws and
relates to material affairs, and changes according to the exigencies of the
time.

Mahmud Zarqani; ‘Mahmud’s Diary’)
