UK Election 2010; Our Strength is in Islam and Unity

NB:



The UK general elections are looming and there is increasing discussion within the Muslim community regarding the issue of voting.

As Muslims, we are obliged to look at voting, like any other issue, from an Islamic perspective.

Voting is to elect an individual to do an action on your behalf - such as voting for a man to become a ruler over a country. But the key question is: what is it that you are voting for him to do?

Voting for a man who would rule, judge or do actions that are approved by the Islamic Shariah – such as we saw at the time of the Khilafah Rashidah – is permissible – and indeed desirable.

However, in the forthcoming UK-parliamentary elections Muslims are being told to vote for people who would be part of lawmakers in Britain’s secular political system, whose root and branch is built upon man’s sovereignty, rather than that of Allah سبحانه وتعالى. This would clearly be haram as He سبحانه وتعالى says:

إِنِ الْحُكْمُ إِلاَّ لِلّهِ
“The rule rests with Allah alone” [Translated Meaning Quran Surah Yusuf 12:40] and

وَمَن لَّمْ يَحْكُم بِمَا أَنزَلَ اللّهُ فَأُوْلَـئِكَ هُمُ الْكَافِرُونَ
Whosoever rules by other than what Allah hath revealed: such are disbelievers.” [Translated Meaning Quran Surah Maidah 5:44]

Muslims are being told to vote for parties with policies such as the legalisation of bloodshed and occupation of Muslim lands (as we saw with Iraq and Afghanistan); the creation of oppressive anti-terror laws; the permission of riba and economic exploitation, gambling, alcohol; and who all support. A vote for these parties would be an endorsement of policies that clearly contradict Islam.

How should the Muslim community participate in politics in this country?

The Muslim community in Britain is troubled by problems that should concern every Muslim and for which we must find real solutions. These include:

• The propaganda and media attacks on Islam and its values

• Concerns for our children’s welfare, especially when raising them in a society plagued by drugs, alcohol, sexual promiscuity and family breakdown.

• The killing of Muslims in Palestine, Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere - and occupation of these lands

• Anti-terror laws that unjustly target Muslims

Our community’s strength lies in being united in solving these problems. Unity of this community would mean strength economically and politically. By contrast secular party politics creates fitna, division and weakness. So, calling the community to join the Labour party, Conservative party or Liberal Democrats (or any others) would divide our community along party lines, creating bitterness and discord.

Our community’s strength lies in self reliance. The record of this community, over decades, speaks for itself: Hundreds of masajid, madrasahs and Islamic schools have largely been built by the community’s money and effort without help from the state.

These institutions need to remain free from the interference from the government and political parties who want to westernise the Muslim community. The government’s ‘Prevent’ strategy [agreed in principle by the other main parties] uses the excuse of ‘extremism’ to try to take control of our mosques and madrassahs, and change our understanding of Islam so that our children and future generations adopt the ‘free’ way of life.

Our community must voice our opposition – in a strong and united manner - to the policies which lead to the killing of Muslims in Palestine, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and elsewhere and the occupation of these lands; and support the global work for an Islamic Khilafah state that will liberate these lands and end the killing and oppression. We cannot rely on the secular parties who endorsed these colonial and murderous policies in the Middle East, Afghanistan and elsewhere.

Our community must, as a fundamental priority, ensure that we secure our values and hold onto our Deen strongly in the face of all the negativity about Islam in the media and society in general.

We can only counter the lies and misconceptions about Islam and carry the correct message of Islam to the wider society if we keep Islam at the top of our agenda and focus our energies in this direction, rather than trying to curry favour with the corrupt Westminster politicians, who simply court Muslims for their own selfish desire to achieve power.

Holding on to our values

The aim of encouraging Muslim participation in the secular politics of Westminster is to see us endorse this kufr political system (based on man making laws), its values and policies, which have caused occupation and bloodshed, as well as leading to the misery of ‘Broken Britain’ today.

Yet Islam has its own unique politics and values built upon the sovereignty of Allah سبحانه وتعالى and not manmade systems that are the cause of misery in the world. If Muslims surrendered to these calls to assimilate into the system we would inevitably lose our distinct Islamic values.

The recent attacks by Jim Fitzpatrick MP and journalist Andrew Gilligan on the Islamic Forum Europe proved, if proof was needed, that the secular system and secular parties want Muslims to abandon policies based on Islam and adopt the secular values of the parties. The hopeless track record of the current Muslim MPs is clear proof of how they must abandon our communities and Islamic values to remain within those parties. The path of voting for, and participating in, these secular parties will no doubt bring harm rather than any good to our community.

We call upon the Muslim community to hold fast to Islamic values and follow a political path based upon Islam and unity of the Muslim community - enjoining the good and forbidding the munkar – and resist the false promises of influence in this kufr system at the price of losing our deen. It is Islam alone that gives this community dignity and ‘izzah and if we lose that, no amount of political activity could ever deliver meaningful results.

Allah سبحانه وتعالى says:
وَلَا تَرْكَنُوا إِلَى الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا فَتَمَسَّكُمُ النَّارُ وَمَا لَكُم مِّن دُونِ اللَّـهِ مِنْ أَوْلِيَاءَ ثُمَّ لَا تُنصَرُونَ
"And do not incline to those who do wrong, or the Fire will seize you; and you have no protectors other than Allah, nor shall you be helped.” [Translated Meaning Quran Surah Hud 11:113]
