Nothing in life is of greater importance to the Mu‘min (believer) than to seek the pleasure of the Creator (swt). It is He that created man from nothing and He that commands the utmost respect and worship in all our actions. As Allah (swt) commanded:

“I have not created jinn and man except to worship Me.” [TMQ 51:56]. Allah (swt) not only created man, but also made within us the capacity to think and respond to our instincts. We have the choice of doing right or wrong, of following the Supreme’s guidance or descending into falsehood, the criterion solely defined by Allah (swt): “Follow what is revealed to you from your Lord. And Allah is aware of all things you do” [TMQ 33:2]. and,.

“Then We set you upon a way (Shari‘ah) by which your purpose will be fulfilled: so follow this way and not the whims of those who have no knowledge.” [TMQ 45:18].

The following of and full implementation of this Shari‘ah is the greatest challenge facing the Muslims of today, indeed without this application of Islam to all of lifes affairs, we cannot say we are living by Islam. The sham of corruption characterised by the systems of disbelief which are implemented throughout the Muslim world must come to an end for us to achieve this noble goal. But as long as the Muslim Ummah stays.

(swt) granted to the Ummah. And as long as the sincere, active Muslims waste their time on side issues, solely involving themselves with such things as acts of charity, welfare, education, healthcare provision or even the individual military struggle as the solution to our political problems then we will delay the achievement of our key political goal - the re-establishment of the Khilafah, which ensures the full implementation of the Shari‘ah.
