There is no power and might except by Allah!
The responsibilities of nation:-
Before placing the problems we should deliberate on our obligations as a
patriot because patriotism is also a part of our religion. It is evident
that in the countries of the world people have formed a nation within the
geographical limit of a territory, and fixed the national
obligation for the inhabitants of such areas. Somewhere the country is ruled
on democratic system of Government, in which the elected Parliament through
its President is made responsible for the administration of the country.
Whereas in a socialist society only that party which seizes authority
legally or illegally becomes rulling power, and the country is administered
only by a Junta holding absolute power.
The people are forbidden to discuss about politics, and their obligation is
only to obey and serve. In case of any dissent serious Punishments are
awarded.
Opposed to these, the Islamic Society is quite a different system of
administration, according to Islamic laws the entire nation, and every
individual of the nation is responsible and accountable in the matter of
state. The Holy Qur`an has explained this clearly that the God Almighty has
made the Muslims one nation(community) so that they may live on a level of
moderation, and the Apostle of God may stand witness to this (may testify
this). There are many verses in which God Almighty has drawn the attention
of Muslim nation towards well being and virtues.
The Holy Prophet (p.b.u.m) by his Precepts has made every person responsible
for his action to God. Thus it conveys clearly that every one should fulfil
the rights of those who are under his patronage, and for this he is
accountable to Allah and the Holy Prophet(p.b.u.h).
When in ascending order, this responsibilty evolves upon a ruler, he becomes
accountable for the welfare of the entire nation, and in this way the entire
nation by stages and grade is made responsible to discharge his obligations,
both individual and collective. Within the bounds of his power and
jurisdiction every body shall be answerable to God Almighty.
"O Allah, You are the source of peace and from You comes peace, exalted You
are, O Lord of Majesty and Honour".
"O Our Lord, grant us good in this world and good in the hereafter and save
us from the punishment of Hell-fire.
"O Allah, forgive us and our parents and our teachers and all the believing
men and women and all Muslim-men and women with your Mercy. O Most Merciful
of all who have mercy."
"Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves and if You do not forgive us and have
mercy on us, surely we will be of the loser."
May Allah The Almighty guide us from Satan the evil and lead us to the
straight part.....Ameen!!!!!
Allahummasalli alaa saidina Muhammadin wa alaa alli Muhammadin.
