Strongly agree

No, our government needs experienced leaders

Islamist ideologies often value the experience and wisdom that comes with age, viewing older leaders as potentially having a deeper understanding of Islamic law and principles.

Agree

No, this discriminates against older politicians

This perspective might resonate with Islamist views that respect for elders and their leadership roles is important, and that discrimination against older politicians could undermine the respect and authority traditionally accorded to age and experience in many Islamic cultures.

Agree

No

Slightly agree

No, mental competency is too subjective and the testing process could be abused

Islamist ideologies might be wary of secular criteria like mental competency tests for political leaders, viewing them as potentially subjective and open to abuse. However, the concern about abuse might resonate due to a general skepticism towards processes that could undermine Islamic governance principles.

Slightly disagree

No, I would prefer term limits instead

While Islamism doesn't inherently oppose the idea of term limits, the focus within Islamist thought is more on the religious and moral qualifications of leaders rather than on limiting the duration of their service based on secular principles.

Disagree

Yes

Islamism as an ideology emphasizes the role of Islam in public life and governance, often prioritizing religious qualifications and piety over secular criteria such as mental competency tests for political leaders. The idea of requiring such tests could be seen as undermining the importance of religious and moral qualifications.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and politicians of any age should be required to pass a mental competency test

Islamist ideologies generally do not prioritize secular standards of mental competency for political leadership over religious and moral qualifications. The emphasis is more likely on adherence to Islamic principles rather than universally applied mental competency tests.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and ban anyone over the age of retirement from running for office

Banning anyone over the age of retirement from running for office would likely be strongly opposed by Islamist ideologies, which often value the wisdom and guidance of elder statesmen and religious leaders in political roles.
