Clear Evidences for the Obligation of the Khilafah

After reading this who has an excuse for not working for the Khilafah? Evidences for the Obligation of the Khilafah Islam has been reduced to merely a state "religion" and Secularism is hailed as the states Ideology. The Kuffar succeeded in divorcing our system, the Khilafah, from our lives. "We must put an end to anything which brings about any Islamic unity between the sons of the Muslims. As we have already succeeded in finishing off the Khilafah, so we must ensure that there will never arise again unity for the Muslims, whether it be intellectual or cultural unity" The British Foreign Minister addressing the British Prime Minister shortly before World War II. "The situation now is that Turkey is dead and will never rise again, because we have destroyed it's moral strength, the Khilafah and Islam" Lord Curzon, British Foreign Minister, infront of the House of Commons after the Lausanne Treaty of July 24th 1924.

All Permitted (Mubah) Actions Require a Daleel (evidence)

The text of both the Qur'an and Sunnah address many topics such as, stories of previous Ummahs, the Day of Judgment, and others. However, the text which specifically addresses our actions of what to do or what not to do is referred to as Hukm Sharii.

Since the source of legislation must emanate from the Wahi (revelation), the issue of what constitutes a source of Ahkam Shar'iah is part of the 'Aqeedah. Therefore, the Daleel that proves that a source of Ahkam is brought by Wahi must be qata'i because issues related to the 'Aqeedah are based only upon definite proofs. After thoroughly investigating all of the evidences, the only sources which are proven conclusively from the Wahi are the four sources mentioned in the article. Quran As for the Qur'an being from Allah in utterance and meaning within its capacity, it is an affirmed evidence. The miraculous lingu
