deal with the riposte: "What's it to you?", in the modern world they also hear "I'm free! It's a free country, it's a democracy!" from people "with their heads stuffed full of western ideas" like personal freedom and individualism. Conservatives despair that "debauchery and sin [when "victimless crimes"], are considered to be 'personal matters'" in which interference is a violation of the sinners' rights. Many if not most Muslims live in secular countries where the charging of interest on loans, drinking of wine and fornication are all legal. The decline in seclusion of Muslim societies and the stronger sense that the Muslim community is "just one among others" with no special "monopoly on moral judgement", has also brought an "unprecedented degree of moral scrutiny and condemnation from outside" the community. The Western concept of universal human rights propagates the idea that it is both everyone's business how Muslims treat other Muslims (when human rights are violated), and no one's business how people choose to live their lives (when no one's rights are violated). The growth of the influence of the modern state over education, the economy, military, "intellectual life, culture", etc., has meant forbidding wrong has become "a function of the state apparatus" in states, including some Sunni states, and tendency of (Sunni) scholars to choose between two directions: either "giving ground" to the state and limiting the performance of forbidding; or confronting the state "in the name of Islam". Changes in Islamic scholarship since Medieval era Among the things that have changed in the Islamic world from the medieval to the modern era are the divisions among Muslims. Whereas before the twentieth century differences among the Hanafi, and Shafite legal schools, and between the Sunnis, Zaydis, and Ibadi "sectarian scholars" were important; in modern times the significant cleavage in many Islamic legal and political issues (including the forbidding of wrong and commanding of right), is: Between Sunni and Twelver Muslims (the Sunni scholastic heritage becoming revered heritage (turāth), while scholars of the Twelver Shia give their scholastic tradition "continuity and adaptation"); the Sunni world being "enormously diverse and confusing" having no one country or event defining the evolution of doctrine, while Twelver Shia thought is dominated by the Iranian Islamic revolution, its supporters and "mild" (clerical) dissidents. Between the Islamic modernists and Islamists/fundamentalists/revivalists Muslims; both seeking to revive Islam by restoring it to its "original purity", but modernists thinking
