5 Njia (Mbinu)
5 The Method
Hakika katika Mtume wa Allah ﷺ mna mfano mzuri kabisa.
“Verily in the Messenger of Allah (saw) you have the finest example”
Kuanzishwa kwa Vyama vya Kisiasa
The establishment of Political Parties
Allah (SWT) anasema katika Qur'an,
Allah (swt) states in the Qur’an,
Na iwepo miongoni mwenu kundi linalolingania kheri (Uislamu), linaloamrisha yaliyo mema (ma'ruf) na kukataza yaliyo maovu (munkar), na hao ndio waliofanikiwa.
“Let there arise from amongst you a group that calls to the Khayr (Islam), Enjoins that which is Ma’roof (right) and forbids that which is Munkar (wrong), and they are the ones who have attained Success”. (TMQ al-e-Imran, verse 104)
Allah (swt) anatoa wito kwamba kutoke miongoni mwa Ummah (minkum) kisimame kundi jingine la watu, Ummah nyingine, kama Ummah hiyo lakini ndani ya Ummah, kwa kuwa hii ni kauli ya sehemu (Tabaeed) inayoonyesha kundi au sehemu ya Ummah. Inabainisha sifa za kundi hili kuwa limefungamana kama Ummah inavyofungamana, lakini likiwa juu ya kuzuia Munkar, kuamrisha Ma'roof na kuita kwenye Khayr, yaani Uislamu wote.
Allah (swt) calls for there to arise from amongst the Ummah (minkum) another Ummah i.e. another band of people like the Ummah but within the Ummah as it is a partative expression (Tabaeed) which indicates a block or section of the Ummah. It identifies the qualities of this block as being bound like the Ummah is bound but upon the forbidding of the Munkar and the enjoining of Ma’roof and the calling to the Khayr i.e. the whole of Islam.
Vivyo hivyo, kila jamaa (kikundi) kinahitaji Amiri, kama Mtume ﷺ alivyosema katika Hadithi moja, "Mkiwa watatu katika sehemu yoyote duniani, mteueni mmoja wenu kuwa Amiri." Kwa hiyo kikundi hiki kinahitaji kuwa na muundo ili kiweze kweli kuwepo, pamoja na kuwa na uelewa wa Ma'roof na Munkar.
Similarly any Jama’ah (group) would require an Amir as the Prophet (saw) stated in one Hadith, “If there are three of you in any part of the world appoint one of you an Amir”. Hence, this group would need to have a structure so that it can actually exist, as well as an understanding of Ma’roof and Munkar.
Hata hivyo, kuanzishwa na kudumishwa kwa Ma'roof na Munkar kunaweza kutekelezwa kivitendo tu kupitia Dola, na haiwezekani kufanya vinginevyo. Imam Qurtubi katika Tafsiri yake ameeleza kuwa Sultani peke yake ndiye mwenye uwezo wa kutekeleza Ma'roof na kuondoa Munkar kwa kuanzisha Hudood na kupitia mfumo wa mamlaka (Imam Qurtubi, Jami'u Ahkam ul Qur'an, juzuu ya 4, ukurasa wa 47). Hii ni kwa sababu Allah (SWT) anasema,
However, the establishment and maintenance of the Ma’roof and the Munkar can only be practically carried out through the State and it is impossible to do otherwise. Imam Qurtubi in his Tafseer has pointed out that only the Sultan has the ability of executing the Ma’roof and removing the Munkar by establishing the Hudood and through the framework of authority (Imam Qurtubi Jami’u Ahkam ul Qur’an vol. 4 page 47). This is because Allah (swt) states,
"Wale ambao, tukiwapa madaraka katika ardhi, huisimamisha Swala, hutoa Zakah, huamrisha yaliyo mema na kukataza yaliyo maovu; na kwa Allah ndio marejeo ya mambo yote." (TMQ al-Hajj, aya ya 41)
“Those who when we establish them (in authority) in the earth they establish the Salah, collect the Zakah, enjoin all that is Ma’roof and forbid all that is Munkar, and to Allah belongs the return of all matters”. (TMQ al-Hajj, verse 41)
Kwa hiyo, kazi ya chama hiki inahusu hasa kuhakikisha kwamba mema (al-Ma'roof) yanasimamishwa katika jamii na maovu (al-Munkar) yanaondolewa; yaani kazi ya chama cha namna hii ni ya kisiasa, ni ya kukihesabu Dola ili kufuatilia kama inatekeleza wajibu wake, na kuufikisha wito wa Uislamu kwa dunia nzima kupitia Da'wah na Jihad. Lakini hali ya leo ni kwamba karibu mema yote yameondolewa kwa sababu ya kutokuwepo kwa Uislamu, na karibu maovu yote yapo kwa sababu ya kutokuwepo kwa dola inayotekeleza Uislamu.
Hence the work of this party is primarily concerned with ensuring that the Ma’roof are established in the society and the Munkar removed i.e. the work of such a Party is political and is of accounting the State to monitor that it is fulfilling it’s duties and carrying the call to Islam to the rest of the world through Da’awah and Jihad. Today’s situation is, however, that almost all the Ma’roof have been removed due to the absence of Islam and almost all the Munkar exist due to the absence of the state that implements Islam.
Tumeitambulisha suala muhimu zaidi la Ummah kuwa ni kuunganisha tena ardhi zake na kuzitawala kwa Uislamu kupitia kurejeshwa kwa Khilafah.
We have defined the vital issue of the Ummah as the re-unification of her lands and the ruling of her lands by Islam through the restoration of the Khilafah.
Mzizi wa munkar wote kuondolewa kwake ni kuondolewa kwa kufr na mifumo ya kikafiri, na maaroof ambayo yatarejesha kila maaroof iliyopotea ni dini nzima ya Uislamu, nayo ni Khilafah, ambayo itarejesha Uislamu katika nyanja zote za maisha na kubeba da'wah ya Uislamu hadi kwa ulimwengu uliosalia.
The root Munkar by which all the Munkar will be removed is the removal of Kufr and the Kufr systems, and the Mar’oof which will bring back every Ma’roof absent and the whole Deen of Islam is the Khilafah which would re-establish Islam in all walks of life and carry the Da’awah of Islam to the rest of the world.
Kwa hiyo, kazi ya chama cha kisiasa ni kurejesha Khilafah hii na kulingania Da'awah ya Uislamu kwa dunia nzima. Ni lazima kichukue hatua zote zinazohitajika ili kuanzisha upya Khilafah. Kwa mfano, ni lazima kiwe na ufahamu wa kina wa mambo ya hukumu, mifumo na sera za kiuchumi, kijamii na kielimu ambazo Uislamu umeziweka, kwa kuwa bila hayo kingekuwa hakina uwezo wa kurejesha Khilafah. Pia ni lazima kiwe na uelewa wa pamoja kama muundo, vinginevyo kisingeweza kamwe kufanya kazi kwa pamoja kama Chama.
Hence the work of the political party is to re-establish this Khilafah and carry the Da’awah of Islam to the rest of the world. It would need to take all the necessary steps in order to resume the Khilafah. So, for example, it must be acquainted with the details of the ruling, economic, social and educational systems and policies that Islam has laid down for without them it would be incapable of resuming the Khilafah. It would also have to be unified in understanding as a structure, otherwise it would never be able to work collectively as a Party.
Hii inatokana na Qaa'idah (kanuni) ya Shari'ah isemayo: 'Kile kinachohitajika ili kutekeleza wajibu chenyewe ni wajibu'. Swali sasa linaibuka kuhusu mbinu ya chama hiki cha kisiasa, na jinsi kingeweza kufanya kazi ili kurejesha Khilafah.
This is based upon the Qaa’idah (principle) in Shari’ah ‘That which is necessary to achieve an obligation is in itself an obligation’. The question now arises as to the methodology of this political party and how it would be able to work to re-establish the Khilafah.
