Nationalist Pakistanis vs. Mullahs --- War is on!

Re: Nationalist Pakistanis vs. Mullahs --- War is on!

I agree with a lot of things in this thread but this is one where I do not agree. Please elaborate what is it in religion (only talking about Islam) that cannot be part of politics. Politics is not a bad thing, its governance, its management of a country or city etc. Can't we be in politics if we believe in God or if we pray or ifwe fast or if we give charity or if we do hajj or if we wage a jihad through our parliament and legislature against the social ills and vices in our society or make decisions in the best interest of the country or defend the country from external agression or show solidarity with worldly concerns. Why this slogan that it is a personal and spiritual thing?
