The Quest for Khilafah
Allah (swt) says in Al-Quran:
It is He who has sent you with
the Book of Truth in order that you may rule mankind with what He has shown
you."
“The
rule (Hukm) is for none but Allah, he has commanded that you worship
none but Him, that is the straight Deen, but most men know
not”
[TMQ
Yusuf: 40].
“The rule (Hukm) is for none but Allah. In
Him, I put my trust and let all those that trust, put their trust in
Him.”
[TMQ
Yusuf: 67]
“Do they then seek the judgement of Jahiliyya
(ignorance)? And who is better in judgement than Allah for a people
who have a firm belief”
[TMQ
Al-Ma'idah: 50].
“We made for you a
Shariah, so follow it, and not the fancies of those who have no
knowledge”
"And
rule between them by that which Allah revealed to you and do not
follow their whims, and beware (be on the alert) that they may deviate
you away from even some part of what Allah revealed to you”.
[TMQ
Al-Ma'idah: 49].
“Those are the ones to whom We have given the
Book, the Rule, and the Prophethood. And if these people disbelieve in
any of them [the Book, the Rule and the Prophethood] then We have
designated a people who do not disbelieve in them”
[TMQ
Al-An’am: 89]
“And those who answer the call of their Rabb
and establish prayer, and who conduct their affairs by Shura [mutual
consultation], and who spend of what We have bestowed on them”
Al-Bukhari reported that ‘Ubada ibn as-Samit
said: “We made a bay‘ah to the Prophet (saw) to hear and to
obey in whatever pleases and displeases us, and we should not dispute
the authority of those who have been entrusted with it, and stand for
the truth wherever we are fearing not the blame of any blamer for the
sake of Allah.”
Al-Bukhari reported on the authority of Ayub on
the authority of Hafsa on the authority of Umm ‘Atiya, who said:
“We gave a bay‘ah to the Prophet (saw) and then he read to us that
we should not associate anything to Allah and to refrain from weeping,
upon which a woman amongst us withdrew her hand and said: A woman
pleased me and I want to reward (repay) her. He said nothing, so she
went and then returned.”
Abu Hurairah reported that the Prophet (saw) said: “Three persons
to whom Allah will not talk on the Resurrection Day, nor purify them,
and they will have severe punishment are: A person who has an excess
of water on the road and prevents the wayfarer of it; and a person who
gives bay‘ah to an Imam for his worldly affairs only, so if the Imam
gave him that which he wants he fulfilled (the bay‘ah) to him,
otherwise he would not; and a person trading a commodity to another in
the late afternoon and he swore by Allah that he was offered so and so
for it, although he was not, and the person believed him and bought
it.”
‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar said: “When we gave a bay‘ah to the
Prophet (saw) to hear and obey, he used to say to us: In what you
could.”
Jareer ibn ‘Abdullah said: “I gave a bay‘ah to the Prophet
(saw) to hear and obey and he instructed me: In what you could and to
advise every Muslim.”
Junada ibn Abu Umayyah said: “We entered the house of ‘Ubada ibn
as-Samit whilst he was ill and we said: May Allah make you a good
person, talk to us of a hadith you heard from the Prophet (saw) and
with which Allah benefits you. He said: The Prophet (saw) invited
us and we gave him our bay‘ah; and of which he pledged us with is to
hear and obey in what pleases and displeases us, in our ease and
hardship and in our selfishness, and not to dispute the authority of
those who are entrusted with, saying unless you see clear (open)
disbelief upon which you have a proof from Allah.”
Hisham ibn ‘Urwa reported on the authority of Abu Saleh on the
authority of Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (saw) said: “Leaders
will take charge of you after me, where the pious (one) will lead you
with his piety and the impious (one) with his impiety, so listen to
them and obey them in everything which conforms with the truth. If
they act rightly it is for your credit, and if they acted wrongly it
is counted for you and against them.”
Muslim reported on the authority of Abu Hazim, who said: “I
accompanied Abu Hurairah for five years and heard him talking of the
Prophet’s saying: The Prophets ruled over the children of Israel,
whenever a Prophet died another Prophet succeeded him, but there will
be no Prophet after me. There will be Khulafa’a and they will number
many. They asked: What then do you order us? He said: Fulfil the
bay‘ah to them one after the other and give them their due. Surely
Allah will ask them about what He entrusted them with.”
Ibn ‘Abbas narrated that the Prophet (saw) said: “If anyone
sees in his Amir something that displeases him let him remain patient,
for behold, he who separates himself from the sultan (authority of
Islam) by even so much as a hand span and dies thereupon, has died a
death of the days of Jahiliyya”.
Muslim reported that the Prophet (saw) said: “He who pledged
allegiance to an Imam giving him the clasp of his hand and the fruit
of his heart shall obey him as long as he can, and if another comes to
dispute with him you have to strike the neck of that man.”

Allah
(swt) says in the Quran:
"Allâh
has promised those among you who believe, and do righteous good deeds,
that He will certainly grant them succession to (the present rulers) in
the earth, as He granted it to those before them, and that He will grant
them the authority to practise their religion, that which He has chosen
for them (i.e. Islâm). And He will surely give them in exchange a safe
security after their fear (provided) they (believers) worship Me and do
not associate anything (in worship) with Me. But whoever disbelieved after
this, they are the Fâsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allâh)."
[TMQ
24:55]

Allah
(swt) says in the Quran:
Let
there be among you a group that invites to the good, orders what is right
and forbids what is evil, and they are those who are successful"
[TMQ
3:104]

Hizb
ut-Tahrir is a political party whose ideology is Islam, so politics is its
work and Islam is its ideology. It works within the Ummah and together
with her, so that she adopts Islam as her cause and is led to restore the
Khilafah and the ruling by what Allah (swt) revealed. Hizb ut-Tahrir is a
political group and not a priestly one. Nor is it an academic, educational
or a charity group. The Islamic thought is the soul of its body, its core
and the secret of its life. <more>
