Comment:

When the Prime Minister of Pakistan endorsed Trump’s plan for Gaza, the Muslims of Pakistan condemned the stance of the regime. Then on 3 October, 2025, the Foreign Minister, Ishaq Dar, said, “I made it clear that the 20 points that President Trump made public are not ours. Changes were made in our draft. I have the record. However, this is the final result, and there is no room for politics.” So, the Munir-Sharif regime has accepted the final result which is Trump’s plan to surrender most of the Blessed Land of Palestine to the Jewish entity.

As for its “principled stance,” the Munir-Sharif regime supports a two-state solution, in which most of Palestine is surrendered to the Jewish entity, even though Islam rejects the Jewish occupation entirely. Moreover, the Munir-Sharif regime supports Trump plan which ensures the security of the Jewish entity, by eliminating the resistance in Gaza, using the International Stabilization Force (ISF), which will include troops from the Pakistan Army.

The Muslims of Pakistan know that the Munir-Sharif regime is ready to recognize the Jewish entity, once the Saudi Arabia does so, under the Abrahamic Accords. On 17^th October 2025, the US President, Donald J. Trump said, “I hope to see Saudi Arabia go in, and I hope to see others go in. I think when Saudi Arabia goes in, everybody goes in.”

O Muslims of Pakistan! The classical ulema knew that nothing is more obligatory, after Iman, than repelling someone who has usurped an inch of Islamic land. Ibn Abidin says in his Hashiya commentary (3/238), وفرض عين إن هجم العدو على ثغر من ثغور الإسلام فيصير فرض عين على من قرب منه، فأما من وراءهم ببعد من العدو فهو فرض كفاية إذا لم يحتج إليهم، فإن احتيج إليهم بأن عجز من كان بقرب العدو عن المقاومة مع العدو أو لم يعجزوا عنها ولكنهم تكاسلوا ولم يجاهدوا فإنه يفترض على من يليهم فرض عين كالصلاة والصوم لا يسعهم تركه، وثم وثم... إلى أن يفترض على جميع أهل الإسلام شرقاً وغرباً على هذا التدريج “And it is an individual obligation (fard ayn) if the enemy attacks one of the borders of Islam. It then becomes an individual obligation on those who are closest to the enemy. As for those who are behind them, at a distance from the enemy, then it is a collective obligation of kifayah sufficiency (fard kifaya), if they are not needed. If they are needed because those who are close to the enemy are unable to repel the enemy, or they are not unable to do so but they are lazy and do not fight, then it is an individual obligation on those who are next to them. It is just like the individual obligation of Salah and Fasting, and they cannot abandon the duty. The individual obligation then extends and extends to others... until it is obligatory on all the people of Islam, east and west, in this gradual manner.”

We must reject any attempt to recognize the Jewish entity. We must persist in our demands to mobilize the armies of Muslims for the liberation of Palestine and Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa.

O Soldiers of the Pakistan Army: These humiliating statements issued by officials, which acknowledge the legitimacy of the usurping entity and consider its existence and security a natural matter, do not emanate from the Ummah and do not represent it. Instead, they are issued by regimes linked to the colonialists, promoting its projects and working to protect it. The Ummah to which you belong, and whose land and dignity you swore to protect, categorically rejects this entity and sees it as a usurping enemy that is neither to be in coexistence with nor to have treaties with, but rather to be fought and uprooted.

Your Shariah obligation today is to mobilize in support of your Deen, your Ummah, and your sanctities, and to renounce your obedience to the surrendering agent rulers, and redirect your weapons towards the true enemy of the Ummah, so that you may write epics of victory just as your forefathers did.

[وَمَا لَكُمْ لَا تُقَاتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَالْمُسْتَضْعَفِينَ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ وَالنِّسَاءِ وَالْوِلْدَانِ الَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا أَخْرِجْنَا مِنْ هَذِهِ الْقَرْيَةِ الظَّالِمِ أَهْلُهَا]

“And what is it with you? You do not fight in the cause of Allah and for oppressed men, women, and children who cry out, “Our Lord! Deliver us from this land of oppressors!” [TMQ Surah An-Nisaa: 75]
