Faulty formulation: Because obedience to authority is required, every order must be obeyed even if it clearly demands disobedience to Allah.
Correct formulation: Obedience and order are recognized in lawful and proper matters; an instruction to disobey Allah does not become lawful simply because it comes from an authority. Maintaining community order does not make sin permissible.
Application: A legitimate administrative instruction deserves compliance. But where an order explicitly requires a prohibited act, the office held by the person issuing it does not transform that act into something lawful.
