The political cause of the Ummah is Islam, in the strength of the status of the State, the best implementation of its rules and continuity in carrying its call to mankind.

The meaning of the words the political cause is the matter that the State and the Ummah face and is a duty upon them to undertake whatever it necessitates from the governing of affairs. This issue could be general, and so it would be the political cause, or it could be specific in which case it would be a political cause, or it could be a part of a matter, and so in which case it would then be an issue from the various issues of the cause. For example, the issue that faces the Islamic Ummah and obliges her to undertake whatever it requires of the running of the affairs is the reestablishment of the Khilafah, so this would be the political cause, and anything else from the various causes such as the case of Palestine and the case of the Caucasus countries are issues of this cause, and though they are issues which the Islamic Ummah faces and they are affairs that need to be taken care of, however they are part of the return of the Khilafah. When the Islamic State is established, its political cause would be to implement Islam domestically and carry the call to Islam internationally, so if it becomes stabilised in a place then its political cause would be the one mentioned in this Article. Subsequently if it implemented Islam correctly and its international profile was strengthened, then its political cause would become carrying the call to Islam to the world, until Allah (swt) made Islam dominant over all other ways of life.

Therefore, the political cause is what the State and Ummah face from the important political issues that the Shari’ah obligated upon them. So the State is obligated to work to establish it in accordance with what the Shari’ah required of it to do, and this does not require an evidence because it is part of the implementation of the rules of the Shari’ah upon the issues as they occur.
