Like Valentine’s Day, Democracy Has No Connection with Our Culture
President Mamnoon Hussain on 12 February urged people of the country not to observe Valentine’s Day, saying that it was not a part of Muslim tradition, but of the West. Addressing a function held here to pay homage to Pakistan Movement leader Sardar Abdur Rab Nishtar on his death anniversary, the president said: “Valentine’s Day has no connection with our culture and it should be avoided.” He said drawbacks of western culture had adversely affected one of our neighbouring countries.
RasulAllah (saaw), «مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ فَلْيَقُلْ خَيْرًا أَوْ لِيَصْمُتْ»"Whosoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him speak good or keep quiet.” [Muslim and Bukhari]. The President, who is normally kept hidden in the background, only to be wheeled out on occasion to the do the dirty work of the regime such as justifying the eradication of Islam or making excuses for the implementation of Riba, is now making lip-service to Islam. Although he states that Valentine’s Day has no connection to our culture, he is silent regarding the source of all the munkar in the country, Democracy. Democracy has no connection with our culture. Democracy is a man-made law shaped by whims and desires, whereas Islam demands ruling by all that has been revealed by Allah (swt). Democracy arose in a Christian environment where the people rejected the use of Christianity by the state to justify oppression, whereas Islam raised the Ummah in dignity and honour whilst it was implemented.
Muslims must work with Hizb ut Tahrir to restore the Khilafah "Caliphate" (Caliphate) on the Method of Prophethood, so as to ensure the end of Democracy, which assigns assemblies of men and women as sovereign, allowing them to choose laws according to their whims and desires, even though Allah (swt) said,[[وَأَنِ احْكُمْ بَيْنَهُمْ بِمَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ أَهْوَاءَهُمْ وَاحْذَرْهُمْ أَنْ يَفْتِنُوكَ عَنْ بَعْضِ مَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْكَ “And judge between them by what Allah has revealed, and do not follow their desires, and beware (O Muhammad) that they might seduce you from some of what Allah has sent down to you.” [Surah Al-Maaida 5:49]. It is this democracy gives the right to any ruler, minister or member of assembly to choose to command what Allah (swt) has forbidden or to choose to forbid what Allah (swt) has commanded. It is this democracy that makes lords over humankind besides Allah (swt). Bayhaqi reported that Adiyy ibn Hatim, said: “I came to the Prophet wearing a cross of gold in my neck. And I heard him read from Surah Baraa’ah, [اتَّخَذُوا أَحْبَارَهُمْ وَرُهْبَانَهُمْ أَرْبَابًا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ ] “They took the rabbis and monks as lords beside Allah” [Surah At-Tawba 9:31]. I said, “O RasulAllah, they do not worship them.
He said: «أجل ولكن يحلون لهم ما حرم الله فيستحلونه ويحرمون عليهم ما أحل الله فيحرمونه فتلك عبادتهم لهم» “Yes, but they made Halal for them what Allah forbade and they took it as Halal and they made Haram for them what Allah made Halal and they took it as Haraam and that is how they worshipped them.”
Dialogue with India is the Path to Humiliation
Indian High Commissioner to Pakistan Gautam Bambawale has stressed the need for providing an environment conducive for the bilateral dialogue process to go ahead. “The dialogue can start as soon as the atmosphere improves,” he told journalists after attending a trade-related event here on 15 February 2016. “Both national security advisers and the two foreign secretaries are in touch and are looking at when talks can take place,” said Mr Bambawale, who presented his credentials to President Mamnoon Hussain last week. He added, “I believe economic interaction between the two countries should be increased and every possible effort should be made in this regard.”
India's willingness for dialogue and interaction is part of the American plan for the region. America is supporting India's rise as the dominant regional power to both counter its rival China and the Ummah's emergence as a powerful Islamic State. Reciprocating the Indian invitations, American agents in Pakistan's leadership work to diminish Pakistan's political influence and economic power. The American agents in the regime seek to draw Pakistan into regional conferences that are dominated by India, whilst India herself aspires for a permanent membership of the UN Security Council, the cauldron of the Ummah’s miseries. These measures allow the Hindu State to interfere strongly in Pakistan's political affairs, even though Muslims have only known harm whenever the Hindu has had any degree of authority over them. Regarding the economy, through establishing energy deals, the regime provides energy starved India a much needed stake in the immense energy resources of the Ummah in Central Asia and the Middle East. As for the trade deals, the regime fulfils the American strategy that industries such as information technology, aircraft manufacture and even space travel are for the Hindu to establish, whereas light and service industries such as tourism, rug weaving and sports equipment manufacture are for the Muslim.
America fully realizes that Pakistan has the power to overturn its plan should it oppose it, whereas its submission will ensure its success. That is why every regime that serves America has played a critical role in furthering this American plan by striking hard at Pakistan's capabilities. America fears the love of Jihad within the Muslims, which is the Ummah's most powerful weapon on the battlefield, so America's agents abandoned and then persecuted the groups fighting India for the complete liberation of Kashmir. The American agents then ensnared Pakistan's armed forces in America's war against the Muslims in the tribal regions. These agents then made radical changes in the Army's green book, so that Pakistan's military was focused inwards, rather than towards India, shifting the majority of Pakistan's forces from the Eastern border to the Western border.
Only the Khilafah "Caliphate" (Caliphate) on the Method of the Prophethood and its implementation of Islam can end the current course of humiliation before India.
ISIS Used as Cover to Outlaw Jihad and Khilafah "Caliphate"
Pursuant to implement of the “National Action Plan,” Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan on 16 February named certain banned organisations which, he said, were using the name of a middle-eastern terror group that had no actual footprint in the country. Reiterating his stance that the militant Islamic State group - also known by its Arabic acronym Daesh -did not have a foothold in Pakistan, he said that terrorists from proscribed organisations had rallied under the IS banner. For example, he said, that when terrorists using the Daesh name were picked up from Daska, they were found to be associated with Hafiz Saeed’s Jamaatud Dawa. In Sindh, he said, the Hizb-i-Islami group had been using the IS name. There are around 45 terrorist organisations operating in Pakistan and some of them are using the Daesh name, he said, adding that, “These [groups] are on the [radar] of intelligence and security agencies”.
The latest chapter in the betrayal of Pakistan's rulers is their adoption of the "National Action Plan," which is an American plan to suppress Islam and Muslims and those who support them. Whilst using the brutal ISIS as a blanket justification, the purpose of this plan – as is clear from its implementation – is pursuing and persecuting all those loyal to their Deen in Pakistan, particularly those who are carrying the call for the Khilafah "Caliphate" on the way of the Prophethood, the Shebaab of Hizb ut Tahrir, and the Mujahideen who are fighting the US occupation in Afghanistan or the Indian occupation in Kashmir. The prisons are filling up with such people and the thugs of the regime pursue them, kidnap and arrest them, and violate the sanctity of their homes and work places.
It was narrated from Anas that RasulAllah (saaw) said, «من روع مؤمنا لم تؤمن روعته يوم القيامة» “Whosoever terrifies a believer will not be secure from being terrified on the Day of Resurrection.” (Kanz al-Ummal) By such actions the regime's thugs have become like the Alawwi “Shabiha” thugs of the Syrian tyrant, Bashar, in criminality and like the soldiers of the oppressive king who burnt the believers alive simply because they said our Lord is Allah [ وَمَا نَقَمُوا مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا أَنْ يُؤْمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَمِيدِ ] “And they resented them only because they believed in Allah, the Almighty, Worthy of all praise.” [Surah Al-Barooj 85:8]
Alliance with America is a Grave Sin and Invitation to Destruction
The Foreign Office held on 17 February a preparatory session for the upcoming ministerial meeting of the Pak-US Strategic Dialogue scheduled for Feb 29. Adviser on Foreign Affairs Sartaj Aziz would travel to Washington for the meeting with US Secretary of State John Kerry. “The Adviser chaired an Inter-Ministerial Meeting today, which was held to review progress of the previous rounds and prepare for the upcoming strategic dialogue to further strengthen the partnership with special focus on expanding trade and investment cooperation,” a FO statement said.
The Kuffar colonialists have always oppressed and attacked the Muslims, occupied their lands and stole their resources. They are an open enemy to Allah (swt) and His Messenger (saaw) and the enemy cannot be made an ally. This is clear from America's role in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen and Syria. It is abundantly clear from America's mischief within Pakistan, from the insidious Raymond Davis Network through to economic reforms that have crippled Pakistan's economy. To turn to the colonialists to remove an oppression or establish a good, is like a sheep going to a rabid wolf to seek refuge and protection. As for the regime, it herds the entire nation into the clutches of the enemies. The Raheel- Nawaz regime treats the openly hostile Kuffar as friends seeking honour from them and opening the nation to harm at their hands, even though Allah (ta’ala) has ordered that enemies are taken as an enemy, [ يَا أَ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لاَ تَتَّخِذُوا عَدُوِّي وَعَدُوَّكُمْ أَوْلِيَاءَ تُلْقُونَ إِلَيْهِمْ بِالْمَوَدَّةِ وَقَدْ كَفَرُوا بِمَا جَاءَكُمْ مِنْ الْحَقِّ]“O you who believe! Choose not My enemies who are your enemies as friends showing them affection even when they disbelieve in that truth that has come to you" [Surah Mumtahina 60:1]
