Dears,
I have just gone through the whole thread.
Death of any one is a painful event and incident. Even an enemy's or opponent's death is not to be celebrated as such. Here, I dont mean that any one has done this any where. Rather, I just concluded that BB's death specially, the way it happened, is very painful for the masses and there is no other comment or argument.
BB was a learned political leader of Pakistan. I would probably not be wrong if I say that she was the only POLITICALLY INTELIGENT leader which our country had before her death.
After the death of Z.A. Bhuttu in 1979, if we analyze, the last 28 years gave us only two leaders which we can call leaders in true sense keeping in view the genuine substantial public support they have behind them. Here I dont get into debate regarding the evalution process of various leaders that whether or not they had been promoted by army rulers. It is some thing out of the context at the moment. These two leaders are BB and Nawaz Shareef. This I conclude with reference to the substantial DIVERSIFIED general public support they have from masses. I just exclude Altaf Hussain from this list becoz his supporters are specific to one race and caste/sub-nation and are also restricted to a samll proportion in the meaning of area. He is never (so far) accepted by diversified masses.
Now out of these two leaders BB and Nawaz, BB was (in my view) much educated, influential, composed, experienced, concentrated and wise leader than Nawaz. She was also not having any blame of being brought up by some army ruler as in case of Nawaz people oftenly say.
(I talk about BB as a politician and popular leader. Here I am not discusisng any of corruption charges on her or on her husband and any of her connections with USA. Further, in my view every leader of Pakistan is corrupt and has connections with USA, therefore, it is not an exclusive charge).
Anyways, there are two leaders evolved in this phase of 28 years history of Pakistan, if we check the total regime goverened by them alternatively, it would not be more than 10 years. This makes 36% of the 28 years tenure after Bhuttu' death. Resultantly 64% of this tenure goes to army directly.
This is what has lead us to the current situation. First of all our most of leaders dont have the ability to reach the level where BB was, seconly army never wants any capable person to govern the country through politically and democratically elected persons. I last day saw the column of Mr. Maqbool Oriya Jan in daily Express. He wrote facts about some Italian army dictator who totally ruined the countary and always considered his-self to be the only vigilant and patriot italian. Same is happening in Pakistan at the moment. I understand that the worst dictator considers his-self the only true Pakistani. He dont wnat to surrender his position at any cost. When this situation arises, the countaries collapse. May Allah save Pakistan.
Some people feel that we should get prepared for Jehad due to Pakistan's circumstances. I just feel pitty on their thought. They just want to see some genie out of the bottle on just uttering out of some words from the mouth. This is thought of fools' paradise. I agree jehad is farz but is it a spontaneous activity. Can we fight with sticks and swords in this era, are we united enough to do so by gathering our resources, have we ever reached on some national consensus.
Further, from which nation we expect that they will do jehad. The nation which kills each other? The nation which fired out the innocents' cars jeaps and properties, the nation which always took the benefit of such circumtances and starts looting the general publics' homes, the nation which sets its all trains, busses and railway stations to fire which in fact has nothing to do with any such incident (like BB's death), the nation which harms its own self, the nation which always speaks about breaking their federation and joint existence on the basis of sindhi punjabi saraiki mahajir etc slogans, the nation which says about "Na Khappay Pakistan", the nation which causes death to a number of patients by blocking roads and pasages, the nation which could not even learn how to react on various situations, the nation that is practically illetrate, the nation which ignores the fact that human being has crossed the limits of moon and mars in other parts of the world, the nation majority of which is itself extremely corrupt and feels proud of their corruption in jobs and other affairs, the nation which is never united, the nation which is totally backward and has nothing advanced technical knowledge, the nation in which one society member is feared of the other, the nation where every one takes advantage of his position and resources at th cost of all the losses of his brothers and sisters.
From whom we expect will do jehad. Are we in a position to do jehad against our own nafs? It appears very strange to me when we talk about jehad while our nafs could never be defeated by us. If we cant defeat our nafs, can we defeat the kufar? This is the biggest point which is never called into attention by those who always take the name of Jehad. Further, even if we do call it into attention, can we make the others to do TAZKIYYA-E-NAFS? Would others listen to us? Are we strong enough to do jehad? If some of us feel, it is upto them. If not, then what Islam guides us? Muslims did not do jehad 9with sword) for almost 13 or 14 initial years against the Kuffaar-e-Makkah while their assassinations were never stopped by kufar. Why they did not do it unless they found a peaceful situation and little bit power at Madina. We should read, think and concentrate. We should not merely close our eyes and rush to one side blindly as we did when our roads were being set to fire by our own hands.
What we shoul do is, we should start a democratic process in Pakistan. Army ruler should leave his position. The current Chief of army should play his positive role. Political parties should be called for developing consenses and to leave the slogans like Na Khappey Pakistan etc. A strictly fair election (might be under observation of UNO) should be arranged and leading party /alliance should be given a chance to settle down for five years. Policies should be reviewed, Deprived areas and provinces should be encouraged and given equal rights through democartic process and by reaching agreeable consensus as Quaid-e-Azam did at his time. Education must be improved, Islamic sense should be revived in youth, farangi-ism should be controlled through positive and agreeable policies, federation should be stregthened by reviving the policies and creating unity in the cross cultural venues. Resources have to be efficiently and effectively utilized. Employment has to be improved either by jobs in public sector or through self employment schemes (keeping them safe from corruption). Health and medical facilities within the countary have to be improved and social justice has to be made available. The utmost important area is of ADLIYA / judiciary. The powers and role of judiciary must not be jeopardized by any means. These should be above anything in the country.
When we will reach political and social harmony and love / affection among various sectors and people, then comes the area of technical and economical improvement and empowerment. This is a very long phase. It may take 30 to 50 years for a nation like Pakistan to get such stability (not talking about empowerment). Only when we would be able to get stability on these areas, we should consider for instituting the Jehad Bil-Saif.
I know people will criticise me on this post, but, it is my view that we are not able to do Jehad Bil-Saif at the moment. This is the era of Jehad against Nafs. Going through this phase successfully and getting to the phase of technical and economical stability will take us to the point where we would be able to do Jehad Bil.Saif. Otherwise results will not be diffrent from Afghanistan. Dr. Israr Ahmed and Dr. Zakir Naaik have also made similar conclusions. It's another issue that so many of us dont even regard them as Aalims.
Now the issue is to create harmony among various areas of Pakistan to save ourselves from another Dhaka incident. The issue is to hold free and fair elections in the countary. The issue is to abstain ourselves to harm our ownselves and our other Pakistani brothers. Now the issue sis to get back to an independent judicial system. The issue is to send army back to its own role like public servants. The issue is to abstain ourselves from talking about Na Khappay Pakistan. I dont like Asif Zardari personally but I salute him just for the sentence where he raised the slogan "KHAPPAY PAKISTAN" and where he talked about unity of Pakistani nation.
Let's make Pakistan a united countary and make ourselves a united nation. Let's calm down masses around us and convey them the message of love and unity and harmony.
Remember, no one fired the properties of public and government when Hazrat Umar bin Khattab Raziallah was martyred. Remember, no one fired the properties of public and government when Hazrat Ali Karamallah Wajho was martyred.
Remember BB is not Naoozbillah more important than these noble men of Allah.
Talk about unity and hope.
May God we get rid of this Musharraf and his tola.
Always ready to face criticism.
Best regards,
Kamran.
