Politics...the hidden sin?

Salaam those who know me i am back and inshallah for good and for those who dont watch out because funzo's about! lol but on a serious note i write this topic because im interested in your views on politics and voting in particular as a certain percentage of muslims hold the view that partaking in voting is haraam(forbidden) and that when one does so he commits kufr whereas others disagree it would be interesting if we could get a discussion going on the various reasons why it could be classed as haraam or not now im not saying lets find a fatwa but rather discuss this so we ourselves can gain more knowledge than rather ignorantly just following what were told....so ill leave it to you guys do you think its haraam if so why? do you think its halaal if so justify!
wasalaam!

Nice to see u back old mucker, and good question. I'll pop in now and again too.
