Dr. Allama Iqbal

 تیری دوا نہ ہی مشرق میں ہے نہ مغرب میں   
ملے گا درد کا درماں دیار طیبہ میں
Your remedy is neither in the East nor in the West
 Medicine of your pain is only in obeying ‘Mustafaa (ﷺ) the best

Importance of Motivational Education’s Splendor

In the West now day’s importance of some concept or thought’s perception is created in child or student, they say when we brighten the importance of education in child’s mindset then half of the job is done, he automatically generates affection and aspiration of education. Pakistan should also promote such motivational education methods, like Europe and America motivational and behavioral sciences educational workshops, and seminars should be held to boost moral, develop interest in reading and applied commonsense methods to improve self-positive image and better outlook of both children and adults.

Protection of Woman’s Status and Rights

Woman and child abuse is on the rise in our society; due to our Hindu heritage woman in our society is treated as lesser human being than man, which is totally against Islamic teachings. I suggest, tougher laws should be made in the light of Qur’aan and Sunnah to protect woman from abuse arising from her parents, husband, in-laws and harassment by employer or tribal execution such as Kar-o-kari, Swarah and marriages with Qur’aan. Provide her free speedy legal assistance to restore her rights and dignity established by Islam.

Role of Public

Considering all aspects; poor economy, lack of education, lack of job opportunities, poverty elevation, lawlessness, lack of justice, lack of security and on the other hand vitality of national security is essential while the national budget is heavily in deficit and under debt. Under such circumstances there has to be a workable plan, after scrutinizing all aspects it appears that character building of youth has to take place and economy has to be boosted. There is no quick fix medicine or magic that could pay off all the debts and create jobs for every one over night. Both character building and boosting of economy needs time and money and it is step-by-step process. There are two phases:

Phase One:

There is an idea of Mutual Investment Network that has to be spread in the public and explained.

The present young generation in the colleges and universities has to be motivated through interaction to fully comprehend the concept of Mint (Mutual Investment Network) and to be invited to either come under the umbrellah of Mint or develop their own investment net works, but unless the young generation step forward and participating in uplifting the economy, Pakistan shall remain shackled by foreign debt and bound to follow the policies of its lenders. It is do or die situation, there is no time to sit back and watch the country falling apart. Present government or any other government, none of them are or shall be able to bail out Pakistan which present poor economic policies. It is the people of Pakistan who have to have the determination to free their country and it is only possible when you assemble your hearts, minds and money at one platform.

Let us not wait for tomorrow, seize the moment now and embark on the journey to secure your future & independence of your country.

Phase Two:

A new generation has to be grown on the basis of Islamic doctrine, which could take 20/25 years. I would use the figure of 25 years (13 years of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him), started preaching of Islam in Makkah, and 10 years of establishing in Medina, and 2 years of Caliph Abu Bakr (May Allah be pleased with him) of strengthening of Islam in Madina). The mission would need billions of Rupees, which is a gigantic challenge. It is my dream and evolution that present generation and Mint together shall be able to sustain the economy by establishing various projects and introducing reforms, thus pull the country out of chaos and generation the funds needed for growing and character building of new generation.

To ensure sovereignty and stability, people of Pakistan must develop financial strength  and muscle by joining Mutual Investment Network (MINT) open heartedly, just like people of Sailkot has set marvelous example by taking the responsibility of constructing airport with public funds.

Islamic Justice System Forbids Favourtism

When you are appointed as judge your decision should be above you all-personal considerations, and you should uphold justice under all conditions. Islam gives its citizens the right to absolute and complete equalities in the eyes of the law; nobody how great he may be is above the law. Even rulers are not above the law. A rich woman named Fatima belonging to high and noble Arab tribe Bani Makhzoom, was arrested in connection with a theft. The case was presented before Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). Some close companions of the Prophet wished to save her from ‘hand cut’ punishment. For this, they persuaded Osama bin Zaid (May Allah be pleased with him) to request Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) to take a lenient view of the case and excuse the woman from hand cut. Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) replied angrily, “The nations that lived before you were destroyed by Allah Almighty, because they punished the common man for their offences and let their dignitaries go unpunished for their crimes. I swear by Allah (Jalla Jalalohou), even if Fatima (May Allah be pleased with him) the daughter of Muhammad (peace be upon him) had committed this crime I would have cut her hand.

How high the court was held in esteem in early days of Islam is apparent from an example. During reported with reference of Qadi (Judge) Shoreeh. Caliph Ali’s Zarah (chain armour) was lost. Caliph Ali saw it with a Jew – He said to Jew, “zarah is mine – I neither sold it nor gifted it – how did you get it”? The Jew said, “It is mine as it is in my possession.” Caliph Ali had to file a case against Jew in the court of Qadi (judge) Shoreeh. When proceeding started:

Judge asked Ali, “What is you claim?”

Caliph Ali answered, “This zarah (armour) is mine, neither had I sold it nor did I gift it.

Judge asked the Jew, “What is your answer to the claim?”

Jew replied, “It is mine as it is in my possession.”

Judge asked Caliph Ali, “Do you have any witness?”

Caliph Ali said, “Yes, my son Hassan and my servant Qanbar”.

Judge replied, “Witness of a son is not admissible in the court of law in favour of his father.”

Caliph Ali asked, “How witness of a dweller of Paradise can be incorrect and unlawful? When Prophet (Peace be upon him) said that Hassan & Hussain are leaders of young inhabitants of Paradise.”

Judged replied, “This is a matter of this world and accordingly has to be decided by the laws of this world”.

Conversation between the Caliph and judge was still going on when the Jew spoke out loudly, “O Caliph you have brought me before the judge to seek justice while you are the ruler. The judge has cross-questioned you in manners he would have questioned a common person. This is the truth about your religion. No doubt, zarah is yours. I accept Islam.”

“We (Allah) have revealed to you the Book in truth that you might judge between mankind as guided by Allah:” (An-Nisaa 4:105)

The out come of case proves that no favourtism was extended to the petitioner who was Caliph (ruler), a high ranking companion of Prophet (Peace be upon him) and a strong person. The processing of lawsuit was carried out according to Islamic Sharia (law), which compelled a non-believer to speak out truth and to change his heart to accept Islam.
