The Issue of Palestine is an Issue of the Islamic Ummah, not the International Community

Comment:

This address of General Asim Munir was a policy statement on various issues including Palestine, Kashmir, ‘terrorism’, India’s extremist ideology, fake news and climate change. This policy statement came just days before an important defense exhibition, IDEAS 2024, to project the military might of Pakistan.

It seems that General Asim Munir addressed the demand of the Muslims of Pakistan for the mobilization of the armies to end the terrorism of the Jewish entity, which is supplied arms and funds by the Western world led by the US. Since 7^th October 2023, the Muslims of Pakistan are demanding that their fathers and sons in the armed forces mobilize to liberate Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa, Gaza and the Blessed Land of Palestine, regardless of the cost we have to bear.

The Munir-Sharif regime previously claimed that it can do nothing because of the absence of a Ground Line of Communication (GLOC). However, people have rejected this lame excuse. They see that whenever the Western colonialists need our troops anywhere in the world, the military leadership sends them. In the same speech, General Asim Munir stated, “a total of 235,000 Pakistani peacekeepers have participated in UN peacekeeping missions for maintenance of global peace and 181 Pakistanis have also sacrificed their lives in this regard.” So why do the rulers not mobilize our armed forces to liberate the Blessed Land of Palestine?

Now the Munir-Sharif regime has come with another excuse, stating that Pakistan will not become part of any global conflict. The issue of Palestine is not a global conflict that is to be resolved by the current colonialist major powers. Palestine is an Islamic kharaji land. Its issue is the issue of the Islamic Ummah and its armies alone. As for Kashmir, even if we accepted the excuse of the regime, Kashmir is considered part of Pakistan. So, why did the rulers of Pakistan not mobilize our armed forces to liberate Occupied Kashmir, when the Hindu State crossed the last red line, by forcibly annexing Kashmir on 5 August 2019?

The reality is that the Muneer-Shabaz regime is an agent of colonialists, just like the previous regimes. The basis of their policies is the interests of the colonialists, with no consideration of the security of the lands of Muslims or their Deen. There can be no confusion amongst the Muslims of Pakistan and its armed forces. The roadmap for the escape from humiliation is the uprooting the agents of colonialists, the establishment of the Khilafah on the Method of the Prophethood, and unification of the lands of Muslims from Indonesia to Morocco. It is then that a Khaleefah Rashid (caliph) will mobilize millions of Muslim troops to liberate all the occupied lands.

The establishment of the Khilafah Rashidah (rightly guided Caliphate) is not a dream. It is a Shariah obligation and a glad tiding of the Messenger of Allah (saw). The Prophet (saw) said,

«ثُمَّ تَكُونُ مُلْكًا جَبْرِيَّةً فَتَكُونُ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ تَكُونَ ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُهَا إِذَا شَاءَ أَنْ يَرْفَعَهَا ثُمَّ تَكُونُ خِلَافَةً عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ النُّبُوَّةِ ثُمَّ سَكَتَ»

“…Then there will be oppressive rule (ملكًا جبرية) for as long as Allah wills, then he will remove it when He wills, and then there will be Khilafahupon the Prophetic method.’ Then he (saw) was silent.” (Ahmed)
