Comment:

After the collapse of the Khilafah (Caliphate), the colonising countries divided the Islamic lands along national lines and created various destructive associations to prevent the revival of the Khilafah (Caliphate) and the unification of the Islamic Ummah into one single body. Organisations such as the League of Arab States, the Organisation of Islamic Conference or the World Islamic League are vivid examples of this.

Immediately after the collapse of the USSR, in the shackles of which there were many Turkic-speaking peoples who were and still are Muslims, in 1992, on the initiative of the President of the Republic of Turkey, Turgut Ozal, the first Summit of Turkic-speaking States was held in Ankara. Over time, many meetings were held under the aegis of cooperation of Turkic-language peoples, heads of countries and names of the organisation changed.

With the emergence of these organisations, the lives of Muslims have become torment, Shariah law has ceased to be implemented, brotherly peoples have become enemies of each other, and the call to Islam, the call to unite all Islamic lands and to revive the Islamic way of life has become forbidden. It is clear that such unions and conferences invented and implemented by Muslims are just a tool of colonisers to divide the Islamic Ummah and alienate Muslims from Islam and the Islamic way of life. Almighty Allah has said in His Noble Book:

[يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَاكُم مِّن ذَكَرٍ وَأُنثَى وَجَعَلْنَاكُمْ شُعُوبًا وَقَبَائِلَ لِتَعَارَفُوا إِنَّ أَكْرَمَكُمْ عِندَ اللَّهِ أَتْقَاكُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ]

“O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted” [49:13].

It is reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in Mina during the Hajj, said:

«يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَلَا إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ وَاحِدٌ وَإِنَّ أَبَاكُمْ وَاحِدٌ أَلَا لَا فَضْلَ لِعَرَبِيٍّ عَلَى أَعْجَمِيٍّ وَلَا لِعَجَمِيٍّ عَلَى عَرَبِيٍّ وَلَا لِأَحْمَرَ عَلَى أَسْوَدَ وَلَا أَسْوَدَ عَلَى أَحْمَرَ إِلَّا بِالتَّقْوَى»

“O people! Verily, your Lord is One, and your forefather is One. And there is no superiority of the Arab over the non-Arab, and of the non-Arab over the Arab. Just as there is no superiority of the white man over the black man, and of the black man over the white man! The superiority of some people over others can only be in godliness!” [Imam Ahmad transmitted].

Allah Almighty created us with different colours and different languages to test us and show us His power. In Islam, this has not been an obstacle to the unification of different peoples into one single Islamic Ummah from Spain to Indonesia.

There is no system for living that is suitable only for Arabs or only for Turks! There is no system for living that is suitable only for whites or only for blacks! There is a system for life invented by man, and there is a system for life from the Creator of the Lord of the Worlds Himself!

When Muslims followed the commands and prohibitions of Allah Almighty and put Islam into practice, the peoples of all lands where the Shariah was implemented flourished and prospered. Today, when the laws of disbelief and tyranny are implemented in the lands by Muslims, the peoples of those lands suffer from poverty, disease and degradation.

It is time to throw off the shackles of nationalism and work for the unification of all Islamic lands on the basis of Islam, to work for the revival of the Second Righteous State of Khilafah (Caliphate) according to the method of Prophethood. And may Allah help us.
