Introduction: Return of the Khilafah

Since the end of Islamic rule in the Indian Subcontinent through the occupation of the British colonialist and the subsequent destruction of the Khilafah of the Ummah, we have suffered for decades under successive rules of democracy and dictatorship, despite the fact that Pakistan was created in the name of Islam.
However, for years now, there are evident signs throughout the Ummah of the return of Islam as a state and rule. The call for Islam is now strong within the entire Ummah, from Tunisia to Syria and right across to Indonesia. Pakistan is no exception and our enemies fear that as it is the most powerful Muslim state:
• A survey supported by the US Department of Homeland Security and conducted by the University of Maryland between December 2006 and February 2007, revealed that the majority of Muslims in Pakistan held a personal goal, "to unify all Islamic countries into a single Islamic state or
Caliphate (Khilafah)."
• In an interview in March 2009, David Kilcullen, advisor to the US CENTCOM Commander, said, "Pakistan has 173 million people, 100 nuclear weapons, an army bigger than the US Army... We're now reaching the point (of) ...an extremist takeover -- that would dwarf everything we've seen in the war on terror today."
• An article published in the New Yorker on 16 November 2009 stated, "The principal fear is mutiny-that extremists inside the Pakistani military might stage a coup...A senior Obama Administration official brought up Hizb ut Tahrir... whose goal is to establish the Caliphate (Khilafah)."
• As for the Hindu state, a senior official from the Indian Intelligence Agency, RAW, said in the same article, "Our worries are about the nuclear weapons in Pakistan. Not because we are worried about the mullahs taking over the country; we're worried about those senior officers in the Pakistan Army who are Caliphates ... Some of the men we are watching have notions of leading an Islamic army."
A great change is occurring in Pakistan and there has been significant progress in recent years. People have rejected democracy and dictatorship as tools of the colonialist. They understand that neither system has any semblance to Islam. People are aware that any leadership that enters the existing system can only bring more failure, neglect and problems. The grass roots debate has now reached the stage that the people are asking about how Islam will practically manage their affairs. People are asking specifics of a constitution based on Islam, derived from the noble Quran and the blessed Sunnah.
Hizb ut Tahrir has prepared a complete body of knowledge about the Khilafah. This includes a 190 articleIntroduction of the Constitution, complete with Islamic evidence. It also includes a library of books discussing the details of the systems and policies that the Khilafah will implement. As for Hizb ut Tahrir's work in Pakistan, for years the Shabaab have been clarifying Islam's vision for Pakistan through live discussions, seminars, conferences, presentations, leaflets, booklets, press releases, videos and audios amongst other styles. And now Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah Pakistan as part of that efforts has issued a booklet, "Return of the Khilafah."
This booklet outlines a vision of the Khilafah about some of the current problems Pakistan is facing in the following areas:
1. Revenue and expenditure
2. Electricity
3. Inflation
4. Military doctrine
5. India
6. Education
7. Baluchistan
8. Karachi
This booklet is a clarification that far from solving the problems of Pakistan: democracy and dictatorship are the cause. It is an invitation to the people to study with Hizb ut Tahrir the specifics of the Khilafah and to work with it to make it realized. And it is a sincere advice to all those who still put their faith in the corrupt, man-made systems of democracy and dictatorship, to reject them and work for the Return of the Khilafah.

An advice to Muslims working in the financial sector

Assalam wa alaikum wa rahmatullah wabarakatahu, Dear Brothers & Sisters, We are saddened to see Muslims today even those who practise many of the rules of Islam are working in jobs which involve haram in the financial sector. They are working in positions which involve usurious (Riba) transactions, insurance, the stock market and the like. Even though many of the clear evidences regarding the severity of the sin of Riba are known, some have justified their job to themselves thinking that they are safe as long as they are not engaged in the actual action of taking or giving Riba. Brothers & Sisters, You should know that the majority of jobs in the financial sector, even the IT jobs in this area are haram (prohibited) as they involve the processing of prohibited contracts. If you work in this sector, do not justify your job to yourself because of the fear of losing your position or having to change your career, fear Allah as he should be feared and consider His law regard

Q&A: Age of separating children in the beds?

Question: Please explain the hukm regarding separation of children in their beds. At what age is separation an obligation upon the parents? Also can a parent sleep in the same bed as their child? Answer: 1- With regards to separating children in their beds, it is clear that the separation which is obligatory is when they reach the age of 7 and not since their birth. This is due to the hadith reported by Daarqutni and al-Hakim from the Messenger (saw) who said: When your children reach the age of 7 then separate their beds and when they reach 10 beat them if they do not pray their salah.’ This is also due to what has been narrated by al-Bazzar on the authority of Abi Rafi’ with the following wording: ‘We found in a sheet near the Messenger of Allah (saw) when he died on which the following was written: Separate the beds of the slave boys and girls and brothers and sisters of 7 years of age.’ The two hadiths are texts on the separation of children when they reach the age of 7. As for the

Q&A: Shari' rule on songs, music, singing & instruments?

The following is a draft translation from the book مسائل فقهية مختارة (Selected fiqhi [jurprudential] issues) by the Mujtahid, Sheikh Abu Iyas Mahmoud Abdul Latif al-Uweida (May Allah protect him) . Please refer to the original Arabic for exact meanings. Question: What is the Shari’ ruling in singing or listening to songs?  What is the hukm of using musical instruments and is its trade allowed? I request you to answer in detail with the evidences? Answer: The Imams ( Mujtahids ) and the jurists have differed on the issue of singing and they have varying opinions such as haraam (prohibited), Makruh (disliked) and Mubah (permissible), the ones who have prohibited it are from the ones who hold the opinion of prohibition of singing as a trade or profession, and a similar opinion has been transmitted from Imam Shafi’i, and from the ones who disliked it is Ahmad Ibn Hanbal who disliked the issue and categorised its performance under disliked acts, a similar opinion has been tran
