with all due respect, but you obviously havent been to the middle east then.
lets see..
egypt
morocco
libya
lebanon
syria
jordan
turkey
iraq
UAE
Yemen
thats just off the top of my head..but none of these countries base their laws purely on religious beliefs.
Saudi maybe, but definately not the rest of them.
The vast majority of them base their laws on a mixture of religious and tribal laws ie. yemen, UAE, Oman etc but none rule by true islamic law except maybe saudi.
others like lebanon, turkey and syria dont base their laws on religious beliefs.
coincidntally i met one of the highest judges when i went to yemen last year. when i posed the question on whether he ruled according to sharia law, it was an emphatic no. taccording to him tribal law meshed through yemeni laws the same way sharia law was implemented into yemeni law.
as for backward...yemen and a few others may live in a time warp, but the vast majority of arabs are tech savvy intelligent people who just so happen to suffer from colonialist britains meddling
