Our Muslim Lands Are Not Laboratories for Experiments and Trials. The Current International Scenario is a Golden Opportunity, that Only Comes Around Once
By: Bilal Al-Muhajir – Wilayah Pakistan

After the agreement, between the two military factions that were fighting over leadership in the army, Faiz Hamid and Imran Khan on the one hand, and General Bajwa on the other, the Pakistani military leadership settled the issue of extending the service of General Bajwa. It took the decision for General Bajwa to step down, retiring from the army command, only to hand over the leadership of the Pakistan Army to his right hand man, General Asim Munir.

Then, voices were heard, everywhere, at once, asking to grant General Munir time to prove his worth, in the leadership of Pakistan’s nuclear-capable army. However, General Munir has never advanced the army in real battle, whilst he was the right arm of General Bajwa in recent years, ever since he rose in the ranks of the army leadership! Do people not know that the generals in the army command are not heroic warriors? Instead, they are money and power tycoons. They are the ones who empowered the US in the region, when they sided, under the leadership of General Musharraf, with America, in its crusade against Islam and Muslims. So, they facilitated the US in occupying Afghanistan. They still secure the US influence in Afghanistan. Their treachery has grown to the level that they now pave the way for the arch-rival and enemy, the Hindu State, America’s new ally and substitute agent for Pakistan, to replace Pakistan in Afghanistan, sharing influence there, with America!

The voices that raise the need to give General Munir more time, are either ignorant of the reality of; the leadership of the Pakistani army, the conditions of membership of this exclusive club, and the one who has the real final say in inducting, promoting or extending any new member, or they are fully supportive of this latest decision to fool the public and the army rank and file. Whenever this fact is exposed, the decision makers come up with a new narrative, that is even more convoluted than the previous one. It is no secret, to anyone who follows the political and military affairs in Pakistan, that the one who decides who will take over the political and military leadership, is undisputedly America. Its power of decision is to the extent that there are many narrations of interviews of candidates, for the higher ranks in the Pakistan Army, being conducted by CIA officers and employees of the US Embassy in Islamabad. The Americans even opened an office within the military General Headquarters (GHQ) in Rawalpindi! The matter is not limited to appointing pro-American generals as Chief of Army Staff. The matter extends to following up their actions, whilst dictating to them all that serves America in the region.

This bitter truth is not a double game, as some like to say, in denial of its true horror. Instead, it is known to all those who follow, and are familiar with, the events. Thus, the truth is known to the voices that are calling for giving time to General Munir, as well as those who will come after him. These voices also arose when General Bajwa, and those before him, came to power. It is just another game, within the games of America and its agents in Pakistan, intended to prolong the life of the puppet, secular regime, with both its political and military wings. That is until it is exposed to the people, by which time another alternative is prepared, to replace the old, and so on...

If the current alternative, General Munir and the other members of his club, are really different from the previous club, as it was claimed from the first day of his appointment, and even before the appointment, any one of the corps commanders, amongst these generals, could have changed the military and political reality of Pakistan, overnight. That is if he really wanted to, and genuinely had a vision different from the vision of the current leadership. For example, General Munir, was the commander of XXX Corps (Pakistan) in Gujranwala, towards the north, could have marched for the liberation of Kashmir, compelling the other corps to support him in war for the liberation of Kashmir. That could only ever be if any corps commander had the sincere will and ideological affiliation to Islam, alone.

It was circulated that General Munir had memorized the Qur’an, and that the name “General Mullah” was conferred upon him by the Hindu enemy. However, if his affiliation with the Deen was genuine, he would have put his hand with the hands of Hizb ut Tahrir. He would have granted the material support (Nussrah) to re-establish the Khilafah (Caliphate) state. Instead, he was complicit in, and an observer of, the persecution of the Shabab of Hizb ut Tahrir, as well as the persecution of some officers, whom the media spoke about, for their initiative to grant Nussrah to the Hizb, to re-establish the Khilafah on the Method of the Prophethood, confining them to dungeons.

The unfortunate fact of Pakistan’s political and military leadership, is that it does not allow any voices that call for the generals to prove their loyalty to Islam, Muslims and the people of Pakistan, who number more than two hundred million. Pakistanis must not be lab rats, whilst Pakistan must not to be a mere camp for military exercises and training only. The generals have already exhausted their opportunities to prove themselves. They have failed miserably in preserving the Shariah interests of Muslims and Pakistan, foremost of which is the ruling by all that Allah (swt) has revealed, in the country that was established in the name of Islam. So, let all those who ask for more time for these leaders, be ashamed. They are only giving them more time, and giving them more opportunities, to unleash their hands, and the hands of their American masters, to disrupt Pakistan and harm its people.

The reality of these leaders obliges the sincere in the military institution, in the first place, and more than ever before, to cleanse the Muslim nuclear-capable, jihad-loving, military institution, of all of its impurities, by granting Nussrah to Hizb ut Tahrir, to re-establish the Second Khilafah Rashidah (rightly guided Caliphate) State on the Method of Prophethood. It is then that they will be led by a Khaleefah (caliph), who rules the country and the people, by all that Allah (swt) has revealed. This is so he establishes the Truth and eradicates Falsehood, so Allah (swt) will be pleased with us, granting us victory over our enemies, America, the Hindu State and the Jewish entity. It is then that we will liberate Kashmir, and the rest of the Islamic Indian Subcontinent, from the Hindu oppressors. It is then that we will liberate Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa from the desecration of the Jews, after unifying the various Muslim Lands, under the rule of the Khilafah state, so security, safety and prosperity will prevail throughout the state’s domain. The Prophet (saw) said,

«يَكونُ في آخِرِ أُمَّتي خَلِيفَةٌ يَحْثِي المَالَ حَثْيًا، لا يَعُدُّهُ عَدَدًا»

“There would be a Khaleefah in the last era of my Ummah, who would freely give handfuls of wealth to the people, without counting.” [Muslim]

The reality of the honorable Islamic Ummah is that it yearns for liberation from the chains of colonialism, and its domination over its capabilities. It is ready to sacrifice all that it holds precious and dear. As for the reality of the international scenario, it is divided within itself, with bitter struggle for influence and resources. This reality makes the liberation of the Ummah, and the declaration of its independence, under the Khilafah State, easier and more achievable. And the state of the Ummah today is like that of the Prophet (saw), when he took advantage of the opportunity that arose within the struggle between the Persians with the Romans, and established his state in Madinah, the first Islamic state. Let all the sincere in the Pakistan Army learn from history. Let them not miss out on this opportunity. Let them grant their Nussrah to Hizb ut Tahrir, whilst they know the extent of its readiness to rule by all that Allah (swt) has revealed, its political prowess and its enlightened approach, that enables it to confront various international and regional challenges, with the help and victory of Allah (swt). With their Nussrah, they do not proceed to an unknown experiment, as Islam has been applied for more than thirteen centuries, when the Muslims dominated the world through Islam. In addition, ruling by Islam is a way of ruling by which our Creator, Allah (swt), is pleased with us, whilst He (swt) Alone is the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. Indeed, there is no system that works for people better than the divine system of Islam, sent down by Revelation from the Creator of the universe, man and life, Allah (swt).

O the Sincere within Pakistan’s Armed Forces! Do not be those about whom Allah (swt) said,

(أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهُمْ آمَنُوا بِمَا أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْكَ وَمَا أُنْزِلَ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يَتَحَاكَمُوا إِلَى الطَّاغُوتِ وَقَدْ أُمِرُوا أَنْ يَكْفُرُوا بِهِ وَيُرِيدُ الشَّيْطَانُ أَنْ يُضِلَّهُمْ ضَلَالًا بَعِيدًا * وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَعَالَوْا إِلَى مَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ وَإِلَى الرَّسُولِ رَأَيْتَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ يَصُدُّونَ عَنْكَ صُدُودًا)

“Have you not seen those who claim they believe in what has been revealed to you and what was revealed before you? They seek the judgment of false judges, which they were commanded to reject. And Satan desires to lead them farther away (60) When it is said to them, “Come to Allah’s revelations and to the Messenger,” you see the hypocrites turn away from you stubbornly.” [TMQ Surah An-Nisaa 4:60-61].

And know that Allah (swt) said,

(وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلَّا لِيُطَاعَ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ إِذْ ظَلَمُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ جَاءُوكَ فَاسْتَغْفَرُوا اللَّهَ وَاسْتَغْفَرَ لَهُمُ الرَّسُولُ لَوَجَدُوا اللَّهَ تَوَّابًا رَحِيمًا * فَلَا وَرَبِّكَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ حَتَّى يُحَكِّمُوكَ فِيمَا شَجَرَ بَيْنَهُمْ ثُمَّ لَا يَجِدُوا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ حَرَجًا مِمَّا قَضَيْتَ وَيُسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا)

“We only sent messengers to be obeyed by Allah’s Will. If only those hypocrites came to you, after wronging themselves, seeking Allah’s forgiveness and the Messenger prayed for their forgiveness, they would have certainly found Allah ever Accepting of Repentance, Most Merciful. (64) But no! By your Lord, they will never be true believers until they accept you, O Prophet, as the judge in their disputes, and find no resistance within themselves against your decision and submit wholeheartedly.” [TMQ Surah An-Nisaa 4:64-65].
