It is nearing three weeks since the abduction of the advocate of Khilafah, Abdul Hadi, with his well-being and whereabouts remaining unknown to his worried family. Like thieves stealing in the night to avoid the glare of decent folk, the thugs of the regime, some uniformed and some without uniform, raided the Karachi home of Abdul Hadi just after midnight, on 20^th November 2019, seizing him along with his elderly father, a heart patient. Thus, the regime is brutal in dealing with Muslims who demand the ruling by the Quran and the Sunnah, not caring for the sanctity of the home, respect to the elderly or mercy towards the ill and infirm. And this is whilst the regime invokes compassion in dealing with Abhinandan and Gulbashan and exercises restraint when faced with Modi’s rampage in Occupied Kashmir.

The Bajwa-Imran regime is trampling over its claim to establish the state that the Final of the Prophets (as), Muhammad (saaw) established, by abducting those who call for the Khilafah (Caliphate) on the Method of Prophethood. Far from following the example of the pious generation that ruled by all that Allah (swt) has revealed in Madinah, the regime is upon the method of the Qurayshi mushrikeen ruling elite of Makkah, who ruthlessly persecuted the Muslims, just because they called for worship to the Lord of the Worlds (swt) alone. Just like the Quraysh, the regime is soft, submissive and supportive towards the enemies of Muslims, but hard on the believers.

O Muslims of Pakistan! The rulers of Pakistan hold Abdul Hadi in abduction even though the restoration of Islam in ruling is clearly the only way forwards for Pakistan after the monumental failure of New (Naya) Pakistan. They wage a relentless war of persecution against the advocates of the Khilafah all over a state that was established in the name of Islam, heedless of the warning of Allah (swt),

[إِنَّ الَّذِينَ فَتَنُوا الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَتُوبُوا فَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ الْحَرِيقِ]

“Verily, those who put into trial the believing men and believing women, and then do not turn in repentance, then they will have the torment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the burning Fire.” [Surah Al Buruj 85:10]. The sinful rulers are merciless in their stance towards a sincere Muslims who called for ruling by all that Allah (swt) has revealed, even though in a Hadeeth Qudsi, RasulAllah (saaw) said,

«إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَالَ مَنْ عَادَى لِي وَلِيًّا فَقَدْ آذَنْتُهُ بِالْحَرْبِ»

“Allah said, whoever harms my Wali I will declare a war against him” [Bukhari]. And let the fair-minded Muslims, from the Ummah in general and her journalists and human rights activists in particular, distance themselves from this flagrant sin of the rulers, by raising their voices in demand for the end of the persecution of the advocates of the Khilafah.
