International Ulema Khilafah conference - Pakistan Speech

The following is the english translation of the speech delivered at the International Ulema Khilafah Conference held in Jakarta, Indonesia on behalf of the Ulema of Pakistan: بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم The misery of the Islamic Ummah- Causes and solution All Praise be to Allah, all thanks for His blessings, as is beheld in His glory and dignity and His great power, and the best of all Praises and Peace upon His chosen Messenger, who conveyed the Message, and honored the trust, and advised the Ummah and resolved confusion, and upon his family, his Companions and whosoever emulates them in goodness until the Day of Judgment.
