Dharma And RtaThese laws are eternal and any cosmic law,
which changes with time, is not a Vedic RTA. Not following these is misery and even death. These laws cover comprehensively human conduct, avoidance of all material excesses, enlightened liberalism, selfless action, path of virtue etc. All animate life- human beings; animals, birds, fishes and others can know these laws from the Book of Nature. These laws are a-priori principles known to individuals “real self”. In the Vedas Dharma is Rta. Not following these laws is adharma.

ShariatShariat is the moral code and religious law
of Islam. Sharia deals with many topics addressed by secular law, including crime, politics, and economics, as well as personal matters such as sexual intercourse, hygiene, diet, prayer, and fasting. Though interpretations of sharia vary between cultures, in its strictest definition it is considered the infallible law of God—as opposed to the human interpretation of the laws.
