Kwa mfano, tunapoamua kwamba kusimamishwa kwa Dola ya Kiislamu kunashika kilele cha orodha ya vipaumbele miongoni mwa wajibu wa kijumla, tunafanya uamuzi huo kutoka katika matini za Qur'ani na Sunnah.

For instance, when we decide that the establishment of the Islamic State comes at the head of the scale of priorities amongst the collective obligations, we take this decision from the texts of the Qur’an and Sunnah.

Aya nyingi zinazowalazimisha watu kuhukumu kwa yale aliyoteremsha Allah ni nyingi. Yeye (SWT) anasema:

The verses that obligate to rule by what Allah has revealed are many. He 􀀬 says:

“…Na yeyote asiyehukumu kwa yale aliyoyateremsha Allah, basi hao ndio Makafiri.” [TMQ 5:44] “…Na yeyote asiyehukumu kwa yale aliyoyateremsha Allah, basi hao ndio Madhalimu (wenye kudhulumu).” [TMQ 5:45] “…Na yeyote asiyehukumu kwa yale aliyoyateremsha Allah, basi hao ndio Mafasiki (wenye kuasi).” [TMQ 5:47] “Lakini hapana, naapa kwa Mola wako, hawataamini mpaka wakufanye wewe (Ee Muhammad) kuwa hakimu katika mambo yote yanayozozaniwa baina yao…” [TMQ 4:65] “Basi hukumu baina yao kwa yale aliyoyateremsha Allah, wala usifuate matamanio yao…” [TMQ 5:49] “Je, wanataka hukumu ya zama za Ujinga? Na nani aliye bora zaidi kuliko Allah katika hukumu kwa watu wenye imani thabiti?” [TMQ 5:50] Kuyatekeleza maandiko haya na maandiko mengine ya aina hii yenye aya nyingine na hadithi nyingine, kunategemea kuwepo kwa Dola ya Kiislamu itakayotawala kwa yale aliyoyateremsha Allah 􀀬.

“…And whosoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed, such are the Kaafirun (disbelievers).” [TMQ 5:44] “…And whosoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed, such are the zaalimun (unjust, oppressors).” [TMQ 5:45] “…And whosoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed, such are the Faasiqun (transgressors)” [TMQ 5:47], “But no, by your Lord, they can have no Imaan, until they make you (O Muhammad) the judge in all disputes between them…” [TMQ 4:65], “And so judge between them by what Allah has revealed and follow not their vain desires...” [TMQ 5:49], “Do they then seek the judgement of (the days of) Ignorance? And who is better in judgement than Allah for a people who have firm belief.” [TMQ 5:50] Acting upon these texts and other such texts containing other ayaat and ahadeeth depends on the existence of the Islamic State which will rule by what Allah 􀀬 has revealed.

Aya nyingi zinaamuru kuanzishwa kwa Hudood (sheria ya adhabu):

The verses that order the establishment of the Hudood (penal code) are many:

"Kateni mkono wa mwizi, mwanamume au mwanamke..." [TMQ 5:38], "Mwanamke na mwanamume waliozini, mpigeni kila mmoja wao mijeledi mia moja..." [TMQ 24:2], "Na wale wanaowashutumu wanawake wema, wasipoleta mashahidi wanne, wapigeni mijeledi themanini..." [TMQ 24:4], "…Na yeyote aliyeuawa (kwa makusudi, kwa uadui na dhuluma, si kwa kosa), tumempa warithi wake mamlaka (yaani kudai Qisasi, kusamehe au kupokea fidia ya damu)…" [TMQ 17:33], "Malipo ya wale wanaopigana vita dhidi ya Allah na Mtume Wake na kufanya uharibifu duniani ni kuuawa tu, au kusulubiwa, au mikono yao na miguu yao kukatwa kwa upande wa pili, au kufukuzwa kutoka nchini…" [TMQ 5:33] Kuna hadithi nyingi zinazotaja kupigwa mijeledi kwa mnywaji wa pombe, na kupigwa mawe kwa mzinzi aliyeoa, jicho kwa jicho, qisasi (kulipiza sawa sawa) kwa majeraha, na arsh (fidia ya damu).

“Cut off the hand of the thief, male or female...” [TMQ 5:38], “The woman and the man guilty of illegal intercourse, flog each of them with a hundred stripes...” [TMQ 24:2], “And those who accuse chaste women, and produce not four witnesses, flog them with eighty stripes...” [TMQ 24:4], “…And whoever is killed (intentionally with hostility and oppression and not by mistake), We have given his heir the authority (ie to demand Qisas, to forgive or receive blood money)…” [TMQ 17:33], “The recompense of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and do mischief in the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off on the opposite sides, or be exiled from the land…” [TMQ 5:33] There are many ahadeeth which mention the whipping of the one who drinks alcohol, and stoning the fornicator who is married, tooth for a tooth, qisas (equal retribution) for injuries, and the arsh (blood money)

wakati qisaas haitekelezwi, na wakati wa kutoa adhabu ya ta'zeer (adhabu ya kiutawala) pale ambapo Shari'a haijaweka adhabu maalum. Kutekeleza kanuni hizi na Hudood, ambazo Allah (SWT) ameziweka, kunategemea kuwepo kwa Dola ya Kiislamu itakayotawala kwa mujibu wa aliyoyateremsha Allah (SWT).

when qisaas does not take place, and the imposition of the ta’zeer (discretionary punishment) where the Shar’a has not fixed a specific punishment. Acting upon these rules and Hudood, which Allah 􀀬 has legislated, depends on the presence of the Islamic State that will rule by what Allah 􀀬 has revealed.

Aya zinazotaja Jihaad katika njia ya Allah (SWT) ni nyingi.

The verses that mention Jihaad in the path of Allah 􀀬 are numerous.

Kwa mfano:

For instance:

“Tokeni, iwe ni mwepesi au mzito, pigania kwa mali zako na nafsi zako katika njia ya Allah…” [TMQ 9:41], “Piganeni na wale ambao hawamwamini Allah, wala Siku ya Mwisho, wala hawaharamishi kile alichokiharamisha Allah na Mtume wake, wala hawaidhinishi dini ya haki (Uislamu) miongoni mwa watu wa Kitabu (Mayahudi na Wakristo), mpaka watoe Jizya kwa mikono yao wakiwa wamenyenyekea, na wajione kuwa wamedhalilishwa” [TMQ 9:29], “…na piganeni na washirikina wote kwa pamoja, kama wao wanavyopigana nanyi kwa pamoja…” [TMQ 9:36], “Na piganeni nao mpaka isiwepo tena Fitna (ukafiri na ushirikina), na dini iwe ya Allah peke yake…” [TMQ 8:39], “Na jitayarisheni dhidi yao kwa kila mnachoweza cha nguvu, pamoja na farasi wa vita, kwa kuwatisha adui wa Allah na adui wenu, na wengine wasiokuwa wao ambao hamuwajui, bali Allah anawajua…” [TMQ 8:60]. Kutekeleza maandiko haya na aya na hadithi nyingine za aina hii kunategemea kuwepo kwa Dola ya Kiislamu itakayotawala kwa yale Allah aliyoyateremsha. Kuna hadithi zinazotaja kwamba Jihadi itaendelea hadi Siku ya Kiyama, na haki ya mtu mwadilifu au dhuluma ya mtu dhalimu haitaibatilisha. Kwa maneno mengine, Mwislamu analazimika kushiriki katika Jihadi anapoitwa kwenye Jihadi, iwe Dola ya Kiislamu ipo au haipo; yaani, Jihadi itafanyika chini ya kila Amiri, awe mchamungu au mwenye dhambi.

“March forth, whether you are light or heavy, strive hard with your wealth and your lives in the path of Allah…” [TMQ 9:41], “Fight against those who believe not in Allah, nor in the Last Day, nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (Islam) among the people of the Book (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued” [TMQ 9:29], “…and fight the Mushrikeen (polytheists, idolaters) collectively, as they fight against you collectively...” [TMQ 9:36], “And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism) and the deen (worship) will be for Allah alone...” [TMQ 8:39], “And make ready against them all you can of power, including the steeds of war to threaten the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others besides them, you may not know but whom Allah does know...” [TMQ 8:60] Acting upon these texts and other such ayaat and ahadeeth depends on the existence of the Islamic State that will rule by what Allah 􀀬 has revealed. There are ahadeeth, which mention that Jihaad will continue until the Day of Judgement and the justice of a just person or the injustice of an unjust person will not annul it. In other words, the Muslim is obliged to engage in Jihaad when he is called to Jihaad, whether the Islamic State exists or not, ie Jihaad will take place with every Ameer, whether pious or sinful.

Hata hivyo, watawala wa leo hawafanyi Jihaad, wala hawaamrishi Jihaad katika njia ya Allah 􀀬. Wanapoamrisha mapigano, wanaamrisha mapigano ya Waislamu wenyewe kwa wenyewe. Wataendelea kufanya hivyo hadi watakapoinuka watu wanaomwamini Allah 􀀬 na Siku ya Mwisho, na kuziangusha dola ndogo za kufuru, na mahali pake kuanzisha Dola moja ya Kiislamu, itakayotawala kwa yale aliyoyateremsha Allah 􀀬.

However, the rulers today do not engage in Jihaad, nor do they order Jihaad in the path of Allah 􀀬. When they order fighting they order the fighting of Muslims amongst themselves. They will continue to do that until men who believe in Allah 􀀬 and the Last Day rise up and demolish the kufr statelets and, in their place, establish the one Islamic State, which will rule by what Allah 􀀬 has revealed.

Aya zinazoifanya Ummah ya Kiislamu ibebe ujumbe kwa ulimwengu, na kwamba ni Ummah bora kuliko mataifa mengine, ni nyingi:

The verses which make the Islamic Ummah carry the message to the world, and the best Ummah among other nations are numerous:

“Ninyi ndiyo umma bora kabisa iliyotolewa kwa wanadamu; mnaamrisha mema na mnakataza maovu, na mnamwamini Allah…” [TMQ 3:110], “…Lakini heshima, nguvu na utukufu ni wa Allah, wa Mtume Wake, na wa Waumini…” [TMQ 63:8], “…Wala Allah kamwe hatawapa makafiri njia juu ya Waumini” [TMQ 4:141], “Hivyo ndivyo tulivyokufanyieni umma wa wastani, ili muwe mashahidi juu ya watu, na Mtume ﷺ awe shahidi juu yenu…” [TMQ 2:143] Je, inawezekanaje Waumini wawe na heshima, na makafiri wasiwe na njia juu ya Waumini, ilhali Waumini hawana Dola? Vipi wanaweza kuzikumbusha mataifa mengine mema na kuyakataza maovu, ilhali katika nyumba zao wenyewe hawawezi kufanya hivyo? Hili haliwezekani bila kuwepo kwa Dola ya Kiislamu inayotawala kwa yale aliyoyateremsha Allah ﷻ.

“You are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you enjoin al-ma’roof and forbid al-munkar, and you believe in Allah...” [TMQ 3:110], “…But honour, power and glory belong to Allah, His Messenger, and to the believers...” [TMQ 63:8], “…And never will Allah grant to the disbelievers a way over the believers” [TMQ 4:141], “Thus We have made you a just nation, that you be witnesses over mankind and the Messenger 􀁕 be a witness over you…” [TMQ 2:143] How can there be any dignity for the believers, and the kuffar not have a way over the believers, while the believers have no State? How can they enjoin other nations with the ma’roof and forbid them from the munkar while, in their own homes, they are unable to do this? This will not be possible without the presence of the Islamic State which rules by what Allah 􀀬 has revealed.

Kuna hadith nyingi zinazowaamuru Waislamu wawe na Imamu mmoja, ambaye watamwapia kiapo cha utii kwa Kitabu cha Allah 􀀬 na Sunnah ya Mtume Wake ﷺ.

There are numerous ahadeeth which command the Muslims to have one Imam, to whom they will give pledge on the Book of Allah 􀀬 and the Sunnah of His Messenger:

"Yeyote atakayekufa bila kuwa na bai'ah (ahadi ya utii kwa Khalifa)

“Whosoever dies without having a bai’ah (pledge to a Khaleefah)

…shingoni mwake, atakufa kifo cha ujahiliyyah.” “Imamu ni ngao, ambaye nyuma yake Waislamu hupigana vita na kwa kumtegemea hujikinga.” “Mtu yeyote akiona kwa Amiri wake kitu kinachomchukiza, na asubiri kwa subira; kwani yeye atakayejitenga na Sultani (mamlaka ya Uislamu) hata kwa upana wa shubiri moja, kisha akafa katika hali hiyo, atakuwa amekufa kifo cha Jahiliyyah.” [Hadithi hizi zimepokewa na Muslim]. Maswahaba (Allah awe radhi nao)

on his neck, he dies the death of jaahiliyyah.” “The Imaam is a shield, behind whom the Muslims fight and by whom they protect themselves.” “If anyone sees in his Amir something that displeases him, let him remain patient, for he who separates himself from the Sultan (authority of Islam) by even so much as a hand span and dies thereupon, he would die the death of Jahiliyyah.” [These ahadeeth reported by Muslim]. The Sahabah (may Allah be pleased with them)

Wasahaba walikubaliana kwa ijma’a (makubaliano) juu ya wajibu wa kumteua Khalifa (mrithi) wa Mtume wa Mwenyezi Mungu ﷺ baada ya kufa kwake. Pia walikubaliana kumweka kuwa Khalifa Abu Bakr, kisha ‘Umar, ‘Uthman na ‘Ali, kila mmoja baada ya kufa mwenzake (Mwenyezi Mungu awaridhie wote). Masahaba wote walikubaliana katika maisha yao yote juu ya wajibu wa kumteua Khalifa. Ingawa walitofautiana kuhusu mtu atakayeteuliwa kuwa Khalifa, hawakutofautiana juu ya kuanzisha Khalifa.

held an Ijma’a (consensus) over the obligation to appoint a Khaleefah (successor) to the Rasool of Allah 􀁕 after his death. They also agreed to establish as Khaleefah Abu Bakr, then ‘Umar, ‘Uthman and ‘Ali, after each had passed away (may Allah be pleased with them). All the Sahabah agreed throughout their lives, over the obligation of appointing a Khaleefah. Although they disagreed over the person who would be appointed as Khaleefah, however they did not disagree over establishing a Khaleefah.

Vilevile, mambo ambayo Waislamu wanayahitaji kwa maisha katika jamii ya Kiislamu, kama vile viwanda, dawa, hospitali, uanzishwaji wa viwanda vya kutengeneza bidhaa, maabara, kuandaa nguvu na majukumu mengine ya pamoja kama hayo; katika mambo haya yote, Waislamu wanashiriki wajibu wa kuyahakikisha. Hata hivyo, kuyahakikisha mambo haya kwa ukamilifu, kwa namna inayofikia maisha ya Kiislamu yenye ustawi, ambayo yanategemea utumwa wake kwa Mwenyezi Mungu 􀀬 kwa upande mmoja, na maandalizi na nguvu kwa Waislamu ili kufikisha da‘wah kwa upande mwingine, hakuwezi kufanyika isipokuwa kupitia Dola ambayo yenyewe inasimamia kwa ufanisi uanzishwaji wa majukumu haya, na kwa namna inayolingana kikamilifu na asili ya Uislamu na malengo yake.

As well, the things Muslims need for life in the Islamic society such as industry, medicine, hospitals, establishment of factories, laboratories, preparing the power and other such collective obligations; in all these matters, the Muslims share the responsibility of securing them. However, securing these matters in a complete way, that achieves the prosperous Islamic life – which depends on its slavery to Allah 􀀬 from one side, and the preparation and power for Muslims so as to convey the da’wah, from another side – cannot be done except through a State that itself supervises the establishment of these obligations effectively, and in a way that complies completely with the nature of Islam and its objectives.

Vivyo hivyo, Shari'a imemwekea mtawala jukumu la kuwalazimisha watu kushikamana na yale ambayo Shari'a imeyafanya kuwa ya lazima.

Likewise the Shar’a has charged the ruler with the responsibility of compelling the people to adhere to what the Shar’a has made obligatory.

Katika kutokuwepo kwa Dola ya Kiislamu, kanuni zote zilizokabidhiwa kwa mtawala zinasimama. Watu pia wanapopuuza kanuni zinazowahusu, hawatapata mtawala wa kuwalazimisha kuzifuata kanuni hizi. Katika hali hii, kanuni nyingi zinazowahusu watu zitasimama. Hivyo, kuwepo kwa Dola ya Kiislamu kutakuwa mojawapo ya misingi ambayo utekelezaji halisi wa Uislamu katika maisha utasimamishwa juu yake. Msingi huu utakapofutwa, kanuni nyingi za Uislamu zitafutwa, maandiko mengi ya Uislamu yatasimamishwa, Waislamu watapoteza utambulisho wao, heshima yao na nguvu zao, ardhi yao itatekwa na adui yao atakuwa na udhibiti juu yao, na maovu (munkaraat) yatakuwa yameenea, kama ilivyo leo.

In the absence of the Islamic State, all the rules entrusted with the ruler are suspended. When the people also neglect the rules that pertain to them, they will not find a ruler to make them adhere to these rules. In this case, most of the rules pertaining to the people will be suspended. Thus the presence of the Islamic State will become one of the foundations on which the practical existence of Islam will be established in the realm of life. When this foundation is abolished then a great number of the rules of Islam will be abolished, many of the texts of Islam will be suspended, the Muslims will lose their identity, dignity and power, and their land will be captured and their enemy will have control over them, and the munkaraat will become widespread, as is the case today.
