"Hukmronlik tizimi" kitobining birinchi nashri 1950-yillarning boshida, milodiy hisobda yozilgan. G‘arb madaniyati musulmonlarning ma’rifatli farzandlari ongiga katta ta’sir ko‘rsatdi. Uning ta’sirlaridan biri, ularning tafakkurida hukmron bo‘lib qolgani shu ediki, Islom ruhiy din bo‘lib, bugungi kunda duch kelayotgan muammolarimizni hal qila oladigan tizimga ega emas, davlat uchun hukmronlik tizimi bo‘lmagan, Islom davlati esa faqat diniy va ruhiy xarakterga ega bo‘lgan.

The first edition of the book The Ruling System was written in the early 1950’s CE.Western culture had a great effect on the minds of the educated sons of the Muslims. One of its effects, which dominated their thinking, was that Islam is a spiritual religion that does not have a system that can solve the problems we face today, that there was no ruling system for the state, and the state that Islam had was merely religious and spiritual.

Islam ni o‘z ichiga olgan ishni olib borganlar, odatda, aniq shakllanmagan umumiy fikrlar bilan chaqiruv qilar edilar. Ular Islamni hayot, davlat va jamiyat uchun to‘liq tizim sifatida ko‘rsatishda aniqlikka ega emas edilar. Ular Islamga qaytish chaqiruvini ochiq va umumiy tarzda qilar, lekin Islomning tizimlari nimadan iborat ekani va Islom hukmronligini qanday tiklashni rejalashtirayotganlari haqida onglarida aniq tasavvur bo‘lmas edi. Allah (SWT) nozil qilgan narsa bilan hukm qilishni Xilofatsiz tiklab bo‘lmasligi haqidagi fikr ularning da’vatida yo‘q edi. Shu sababli Xilofatni o‘rnatish va Allah (SWT) nozil qilgan narsa bilan hukmronlikni qayta tiklash ularning ish dasturida o‘rin topmagan edi.

Those undertaking the work for Islam used to call for it with general thoughts that were not crystallised. They lacked the clarity in showing Islam as a complete system for life, state and society. They used to call for a return to Islam in an open and general manner without them having a clear vision in their minds as to what the systems of Islam were or the manner in which they were going to restore the ruling by Islam. The fact that ruling by what Allah (swt) has revealed could not be restored without the Khilafah was absent from their da’wah. That is why establishing the Khilafah and reinstating the ruling by what Allah (swt) has revealed did not find a place in their program of work.

Shunday bir paytda bir tashkilot Ummatning hozirgi holatini va u erishgan ahvolni o‘rganishga kirishdi. U Ummatning tarixini, kuchini va dunyodagi yetakchi davlat bo‘lgan Davlatdagi vakolatini o‘rgandi. Bu Islomning aqidasi va undan kelib chiqadigan Ahkomi Shar’iyaga asoslangan, Davlat esa ularni qo‘llaydi, amalga oshiradi va dunyoga Xabar sifatida yetkazadigan davlat edi. So‘ngra bu tashkilot Qur’on va Sunnatdagi asl manbalardan Islomni ongli ravishda o‘rganishga kirishdi va quyidagi xulosaga keldi: Islom hayotning barcha muammolarini hal qiladigan to‘liq va keng qamrovli tizimdir. Shuning uchun u bularning barchasini tafsilotlariga kirmasdan, umumiy tarzda tushuntiruvchi kitoblar yozdi. Shunday qilib, u Islomning hukmronlik, iqtisodiy va ijtimoiy tizimlari haqida kitoblar yozdi. Bu kitoblarni yozishda u amaliy jihatga e’tibor berdi, toki musulmonlar Islomning amaliy mafkura va amalga tatbiq etishga yaroqli to‘liq tizim ekanini anglasinlar, shunda ular uning tizimlarini qabul qilsinlar va Xilofat Davlatini qayta o‘rnatish orqali uni hayot maydoniga qaytarishga intilsinlar. Xilofat Davlati esa bu tizimlarni hayot haqiqatida qo‘llashning yagona yo‘lidir.

At such a time a structure undertook the study of the situation of the Ummah at her present time and the condition she had reached. And it studied her history, power and the authority she had in the State that was the leading state in the world. It was a state that was established on the Islamic ‘aqeedah and Ahkam Shar’iah that emanate from it and which the State apply, implement and convey it as a Message to the world. Then this structure undertook an aware study of Islam from its original sources in the Qur’an and Sunnah and came to the following conclusion that Islam is a complete and comprehensive system that solves all of life’s problems. So it wrote books explaining all of this in a general manner without touching upon the details. Thus it wrote books on the systems of Islam, such as the ruling, economic and social system. And in writing these books it observed the practical aspect so that the Muslims realise that Islam is a practical ideology and a complete system fit for implementation, so that they adopt its systems and work to bring it back in the realm of life via the establishment of the Khilafah State. The Khilafah State is the only method for applying these systems in the reality of life.

Bu fikr va tizimlarning tushunilishi kengaydi. Buning sababi shundaki, ularni musulmonlarga yetkazuvchi tuzilma, ularni uzluksiz muhokama qilib, ular haqida gapirib, ularni aniqlashtirish uchun manbalariga murojaat qilib borilgan. Bularning barchasi ularni hayot maydonida qaror topтириш maqsadida qilingan. Bu fikr va tushunchalar endi faqat keng yo'nalishlar bo'lib qolmadi yoki umumiy manzara berish bilan cheklanmadi; ayniqsa, Islom musulmonlarning kutadigan narsasiga va ular turgan ahvoldan o'zlarini qutqarishdagi umid manbaiga aylangandan keyin. Bu Islom hayotning barcha muammolarini hal qiluvchi to'liq va keng qamrovli tizim ekanini anglagandan keyin sodir bo'ldi. Shuningdek, bu ular o'rnatish uchun ishlayotgan Xilofat davlati haqida batafsilroq bilish va Xilofat davlati ularga tatbiq etadigan Islom tizimlari haqida ko'proq ma'lumot olish uchun ularga turtki bo'ldi. Mana shu turtki bizga ushbu kitoblarni kengaytirish va birinchi nashrda mavjud bo'lmagan ko'plab tafsilotlar bilan boyitish uchun sabab bo'ldi.

The understanding of these thoughts and systems expanded. This was owing to the structure conveying them to the Muslims, continuously discussing and talking about them, and by referring to their sources to crystallise them. All of this was in order to establish them in the realm of life. These thoughts and concepts were no longer confined to being only broad guidelines or just giving a general picture; especially after Islam had become the expectation of Muslims and their object of hope in rescuing themselves from the situation they were in. This was after realising that Islam was the complete and comprehensive system that solves all of life’s problems. Likewise it became an incentive for them to learn more details of the Khilafah State that they work to establish and to know more details about the systems of Islam which the Khilafah State would implement upon them. This was the incentive for us to expand these books and enrich them with many details that hitherto were not present in the first edition.

Uchinchi nashri "Hukmronlik tizimi" kitobiga qaytar ekanmiz, uni kengaytirish ustida ishladik va Xilofat davlatining haqiqatini, uning apparatini va vazifalarini hamda unga aloqador barcha masalalarni batafsil bayon qilishga harakat qildik. Islomda hukmronlik shaklining noyob va o'ziga xos ekanini, dunyodagi boshqa barcha mavjud hukmronlik tizimlaridan farq qilishini tushuntirdik. Shuningdek, hukmronlik tamoyillarini, Xilofat davlatining apparatini, xalifani tayinlash usul va shakllarini batafsil bayon qildik. Xilofat davlati ilohiy davlat emas, balki insoniy davlat ekanini ham ta'kidladik. Mu'avinlar (yordamchilar) va ularning majburiy vakolatlari, shuningdek, shura (maslahat)ga oid hukm va uning majburiy vakolatlari haqida so'zladik. Islomni to'liq va keng qamrovda joriy etish vojib ekani, uning hukmlarini bosqichma-bosqich joriy etish esa harom ekani haqida aniq bayon berdik. Xuddi shunday, davlatning politsiya davlatiga aylanishi harom ekanini, hukmdorga itoat qilish qachon vojib va qachon harom ekanini, uning yuziga qilichni yalang'ochlash va har bir holatda uni hisobga tortish vojib bo'lgan vaziyatlarni ko'rsatdik. Uchinchi nashrda hadislarga havolalar berish imkoniyatini qo'ldan boy berdik va hadis kitoblarida keltirilgan matn bilan cheklanmadik. Ko'plab hadislarni olishda ishonchli va tanilgan fiqh kitoblaridagi matnlarga tayanardik, lekin fiqh kitoblari ba'zan hadisni ma'nosi bo'yicha naql qilar yoki uning faqat bir qismini misol yoki dalil sifatida keltirib qo'yardi. Shu sababli uchinchi nashr chop etilishdan to'xtagach, kitobda keltirilgan barcha hadislarning manbalarini topish vazifasini o'z zimmamizga oldik, har bir hadis qayerdan olinganini ko'rsatdik va hadis kitoblarida bayon etilgan matn bilan cheklandik. Sahihligi yoki dalil sifatida yaroqliligi bizga ishonchli bo'lmagan har bir hadisni chiqarib tashladik. Shunga o'xshab, kitobda keltirilgan barcha rivoyatlarning manbalaridan ularga ishonch hosil qildik. Qaysi rivoyatga ishonchimiz komil bo'lmasa yoki uni zaif deb topsak, uni kitobdan chiqarib tashladik. Xuddi shunday, muhokama va ko'rib chiqishlar natijasida ba'zi tushunchalar va hukmlarni to'g'irladik. Natijada kitob mana shu ko'rinishda chiqdi, va uni musulmonlarga taqdim etamiz.

Regarding the third edition of the book The Ruling System, we worked to expand it and demonstrate in a detailed manner the reality of the Khilafah State, its apparatus and tasks and whatever relates to it. We elucidated how the form of ruling in Islam is unique and distinct, differing with all other ruling systems existent in the world. In addition, we have set forth the principles of ruling in detail and the apparatus of the Khilafah State, the method and styles of appointing a Khaleefah. Also, we explained that the Khilafah State is a human state and not a divine state. We also mentioned the Mu’awinoon (Assistants) and their mandatory powers, and the ruling regarding Shura (consultation) and its mandatory powers. And we presented the clarification that it is obligatory to implement Islam completely and comprehensively and that it is forbidden to implement its rules gradually. Similarly we have shown how it is forbidden for the State to be a police state and when obedience to the ruler is obligatory and when it is forbidden, and when we are obliged to unsheathe the sword in his face and that we are obliged to account him in every instance. In the third edition we missed the chance of giving the reference for the Ahadith and confining to the text mentioned in the books of hadith. In taking many of the Ahadith we used to rely on the texts mentioned in the trustworthy and recognised books of fiqh (jurisprudence) but the books of fiqh would sometimes transmit a hadith by meaning only or just confine itself to a portion of the hadith that it used as an illustration or evidence. So when the third edition went out of print we undertook the task of finding the references of all the Ahadith mentioned in the book and we mentioned from where each hadith had been taken and we confined to the text stated in the books of hadith. We excluded every hadith whose authenticity or suitability as a proof was not assured for us. Likewise we are convinced of all the reports cited in the books from their sources. Any report we were not sure of or if we found it to be weak, we omitted it from the book. Similarly we corrected certain concepts and rules as a result of the discussions and reviews. As a result, the book came out in this form, which we present to the Muslims.

Biz Allohdan (swt) ushbu kitobda ko‘plab xayrlar ato etishini va Musulmonlarni Xilofat davlatini qaror topтирish orqali tezda sharaflashini so‘raymiz, toki kitobda zikr etilganlar amalga tatbiq etilsin va joriy qilinsin. Albatta, Alloh (swt) uchun bu qiyin ish emas.

We pray to Allah (swt) that He (swt) grants in this book much goodness and that He (swt) quickly honours the Muslims by establishing the Khilafah State so that what has been mentioned in the book is put in application and implementation. Verily, for Allah (swt) that is not a hard matter.
