Re: RECLAIMING THE COUNTRY AND ITS PURPOSE OF BEING
I agree with HHL. Our country may be name the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, but it ain't that Islamic, and the reason for being so is that no one has honestly tried to implement Islam as a system of life (which is what our deen is really about).
Inshallah, inshallah, inshallah one day it will revert to actually being an Islamic country but I cant see that happening in the near future (I pray I'm wrong!).
Dushi Ji, you wanted to know where its going, its going on the same track that Turkey went on a couple of decades ago, only in a more subtle manner; secularism. More and more Islam is something ppl do in their homes, or on fridays in a masjid (as if for a man, the only farz prayer in a masjid is on a friday!)
Unless we have a leader who is knowledgable in both deen and dunya, and practises that to his best... we will continue to go down this modernisation path, or as our leaders like to call it; moderate Islam!?! we need leaders who fear Allah in every single one of his actions, he is a public servent, but sadly in Pakistan, it seems to be the other way around :inteha'e afsoos waala peela aadmi:
