O Muslims of Pakistan! Reject this democratic circus, as you have rejected dictatorship
And establish the Khilafah "Caliphate", the sole guarantor of political stability in Pakistan

On 25 February 2009, the Supreme Court declared the Sharif brothers ineligible for elections, after which an environment of chaos and violence gripped the country, to an extent that some people are raising the possibility of Martial Law. Anyone who looks deeply at the course of politics in Pakistan, can see that the current political set-up was arranged after the departure of Musharraf, under America's watchful gaze. Before the formation of the new government, American and British officials were meeting with all democratic, religious and secular parties, including the PML-N and PPP.  Only once the role of each party that was going to be part of this set-up was decided, did the US initiate this change. And the reality is that until now each personality within this political circus has played out his role according to American dictates. Even the current political crisis is not against the will of the America. America wants to maintain an environment of "creative chaos"- ups and downs in the domestic politics of Pakistan, so that whilst the new US administration devises a more aggressive policy for this region, whilst maintaining drone attacks, the people are distracted away from Pakistan's tribal areas, Afghanistan and the American plan for the region. That is why despite all their differences, both Nawaz League and People's Party are still having meetings with American officials and are referring to America for their affairs.

In fact, the leadership of Pakistan People's Party and PML-N are in agreement to fulfill the interests of America, although PML-N tries to give an impression in front of people that it does not act according to American dictation. Thus we saw that when hundreds of Muslims were being massacred in Swat and FATA, the leadership of PML-N neither mobilized the people out on the streets, nor did it agitate, as it is now doing against the Supreme Court ruling. The attitude of both parties is equally shameful, whether with regards to the killing of innocent Muslims in Gaza or the military operation in FATA, or the repeated drone attacks by America on Pakistan's territory. During the in-camera National Assembly session about America's war on Islam (under the banner of terrorism), both parties agreed to continue America's war. They merely limited the topic of discussion to changing the modality of fighting this war. It was Fard (Obligatory) upon them to strive to eliminate the increasing domination of America in Pakistan, but instead of this, they are trying to eliminate each other's dominance, as if this was a Fard!  They have completely ignored the vital issues of the Muslims and instead squabble with each other, for their narrow, petty, vested interests. And they call people to ‘rise up' only when their own interests are at stake.

In fact, the present situation of these parties is by no means different from their past. In the Nineties, during the successive rule of both parties, the influence of America and continuation of the American policy was quite evident, whether the implementation of the Capitalist economic system and the policies of the IMF and the World Bank, or the US dictated Afghan policy, normalization with India or handing over Pakistani citizens to America, just as Musharraf did in his tenure. Dictatorial and democratic rulers, including Nawaz Sharif and Zardari, are alike. They have the same ideological ‘spirit' in them, which is to maintain the secular, kufr democratic system and to fulfill the interests of America whenever and wherever it is required, so as to safeguard their own authority. In fact the reality of these leaders is as RasulAllah صلى الله عليه وسلم informed us,

[أَعَاذَكَ اللَّهُ مِنْ إِمَارَةِ السُّفَهَاءِ قَالَ وَمَا إِمَارَةُ السُّفَهَاءِ قَالَ أُمَرَاءُ يَكُونُونَ بَعْدِي لَا يَقْتَدُونَ بِهَدْيِي وَلَا يَسْتَنُّونَ بِسُنَّتِي فَمَنْ صَدَّقَهُمْ بِكَذِبِهِمْ وَأَعَانَهُمْ عَلَى ظُلْمِهِمْ فَأُولَئِكَ لَيْسُوا مِنِّي وَلَسْتُ مِنْهُمْ وَلَا يَرِدُوا عَلَيَّ حَوْضِي وَمَنْ لَمْ يُصَدِّقْهُمْ بِكَذِبِهِمْ وَلَمْ يُعِنْهُمْ عَلَى ظُلْمِهِمْ فَأُولَئِكَ مِنِّي وَأَنَا مِنْهُمْ وَسَيَرِدُوا عَلَيَّ حَوْضِي]

"Allah save you from the leadership of the foolish ones." The companions asked the Prophet, "Who are from the foolish leadership?" The Prophet replied, "Those rulers who will come after me and they will neither heed my guidance nor follow my way (sunnah), so whosoever validated their lies and supported them in their treachery, will not be from me and I am not from them and they will not (be allowed to come near) my well, i.e. al-Kawthar, and whoever does not validate their falsehood and does not support them in their treachery, they are from me and I am from them and they will meet me at my well, i.e. al-Kawthar." [Ahmad]

Just as these leaderships are insincere in implementation of the deen of Allah and protection of Muslims from the kuffar, they are also insincere in fulfilling the basic needs of people and their day-to-day problems. One does not see anything other than superficial cosmetic actions from them in this regard. These actions by no means represent concrete, permanent solutions to the growing poverty, hunger, price hikes, unemployment, poor health and education which have made the people of Pakistan so miserable that some are committing suicide. There is no possibility that these leaderships will ever solve the problems of the Muslims of Pakistan, because these leaders do not have any thinking other than some cosmetic changes to a system established and maintained by the colonialists. To them, "change of system" only means that ruling should be in their hands, with a change of a few administrative rules, promotions and demotions in a few departments, transferring a few people from here and there and for personal interests, strengthening some institutions whilst weakening others!

When the people of Pakistan were suffering from humiliation at the hands of the kuffar and price-hikes under the enforced dictatorship of Musharraf, these leaderships were screaming that these problems are because of dictatorship. Yet when democracy has failed to solve these problems today, as it has failed countless times before, these leaderships should have proclaimed the truth- that democracy and dictatorship are two sides of the same coin and will always failed to solve the problems of Pakistan. Rather than telling the truth, they desire that democracy remains a concern for the people, so that there is always an opportunity for them to fulfill their own interests, through this corrupt, collapsing system.

Over last several decades the kuffar colonialists have ensured Pakistan suffers from the disease of personality politics, in a planned way. These personalities draw the people behind them, only to then leave the people in despair, abandoning them after getting power and fulfilling their own interests. Moreover, during democratic rule, by attacking each other and declaring each other as the cause of the misery of the people, these personalities try to divert attention from the fact that the root problem lies not in the mere arrival or departure of a particular individual, but in the secular, kufr system devised by the colonialist powers, which is implemented in both democracy and dictatorship. So as long as this system remains, the miserable situation of Pakistan will persist, whether the rule is in the hand of the "Sharif" (honest) or the "Badmash" (crook).

O Muslims of Pakistan!

As you are witness, the colonialist kufr system as well as the corrupt leaderships which are groomed by this system, have proved to be ‘ineligible' to solve your problems and to protect Islam and Muslims. Only the system ordained by Allah (swt) is eligible to solve the problems of all humankind, which is implemented via the Khilafah "Caliphate" State, because this system is devised and revealed by the One who is al-Aleem (All-Knowledgeable) and He (swt) alone knows what is correct and fitting for His creation. He (swt) says,

[أَلاَ يَعْلَمُ مَنْ خَلَقَ وَهُوَ اللَّطِيفُ الْخَبِيرُ]

"Should not He Who has created know? And He is the Most Kind and Courteous (to His slaves), the Well-Acquainted (with everything)." [Surah al-Mulk 67:14]

And amongst you is the real leadership, Hizb ut-Tahrir, which has built a movement for the re-establishment of the Khilafah "Caliphate". Thus Hizb ut-Tahrir calls you to reject this democratic circus and join the ranks of Hizb ut-Tahrir in its effort to establish the Khilafah "Caliphate". Only the Khilafah "Caliphate" will bestow you with a sincere ruler, who will prefer the interest of Islam and the Muslim Ummah, over and above his own interests and will solve your economic, judicial, social, governmental, educational, internal and external problems by the ever-true rules of Islam.

O people of power! 

Is the repeated failure of this decrepit, democratic system, which fails just as surely as dictatorship does, not sufficient for you to mobilize, rescue your people from a state of chaos and to give Nussrah (Material Support) to Hizb ut-Tahrir for the establishment of Khilafah "Caliphate" which will relieve the Muslims of Pakistan from political instability. Verily the establishment of the Khilafah "Caliphate" in place of the corrupt rulers is the promise of Allah (swt). So who amongst you will you step forwards to gain this honour?  Allah (swt) says:

[وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنْكُمْ وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّهُم فِي الأَرْضِ كَمَا اسْتَخْلَفَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ دِينَهُمُ الَّذِي ارْتَضَى لَهُمْ وَلَيُبَدِّلَنَّهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ خَوْفِهِمْ أَمْنًا يَعْبُدُونَنِي لاَ يُشْرِكُونَ بِي شَيْئًا وَمَنْ كَفَرَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَأُوْلَئِكَ هُمْ الْفَاسِقُونَ]

"Allâh has promised those among you who believe and do righteous good deeds, that He will certainly grant them succession to (the present rulers) in the land, as He granted it to those before them, and that He will grant them the authority to practise their religion which He has chosen for them (i.e. Islâm). And He will surely give them in exchange a safe security after their fear (provided) they (believers) worship Me and do not associate anything (in worship) with Me. But whoever disbelieved after this, they are the Fâsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allâh)." [Surah an-Noor 24:55]
