Islam: An Ideology, Complete and True
Islam was revealed to Muhammad (saw) by Allah (swt) through Jibreel to organize three relationships.
Relationship between Man and Allah (swt).
Relationship between Man and Himself.
Relationship between Man and Society.
Relationship between Man and Allah (swt): These are the Rituals and spiritual obligations that we have towards Allah (swt) i.e Toheed, Salah, Hajj, Zakah, and Fasting and the Aqeedah of Islam which is to believe in oneness of Allah (swt) with his attributes, the angels, the books, the prophets and Messengers, and Day of Judgment.
Relationship between Man and Himself: Abstaining from committing haraam, avoiding major sins and developing attributes of Taqwa, honesty, truthfulness, dependability, taking care of your body, etc.
Relationship between Man and Society: This relationship has to have a political system, because society has to have a ruling body. In other words, a government. They have to deal with each other financially, so they have to have an Economical System. The have to education themselves, so they have an educational system. Whenever they have problems and conflicts, they go to a judge, so they must have a Judicial System. When they form a country or a State, the are not isolated, they live in this relationship between Man and fellow man. Islam is all these three relationship put together.
Our obligation as Muslims is to implement these three relationships of Islam in its totality. To do that, we need an Islamic State. The first two relationship can be practiced without an Islamic state, but for the deen of Islam to be practiced as way of life, we must have an Islamic Khilafah.
The single most important event in the life of Muhammad (saw) after becoming a prophet was the establishment of an Islamic Khilafah. It was the time when Muhammad (saw) was able to implement the rules and systems of Islam revealed to him by Allah (swt). It was time when the shape of History took a new direction. It was the time when the Message was transferred from theory to Practice, from ideas to implementation, from addressing the issues to Solving the problems.
Today, because of our weakness in understanding the DEEN in the right way, we are in a subservient position. However, this Ummah of Muhammad (saw) has not been in this position for long. Let us not forget that Islam ruled in a just Manner for over 13,00 years and today, we have the same obligation to ourselves and to the rest of the humanity i.e. to bring back the light of Islam to its original brightness from the darkness that we are now in.
Allah (swt) says: �This Day I have perfected you deen for you, completed my favor upon you, and hve chosen ISLAM as your DEEN.� (5:3)
The Prophet (saw) struggled and finally succeeded with the help of Allah (swt) to bring Islam as the only way of life for this world and all of humanity. Yes! The victory is from Allah (swt) but our struggle should not be any less. May Allah (swt) make Muslim Ummah victorious in being able to implement Islam in its totality. Ameen!!!
