Abstract

Pakistan is the only one country who came in to being after the State of Madinah for the sake of Islam. The world of changing political systems also agrees that the system established by Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and the Caliphate was ideal. Under Islamic Principles of Jurisprudence, Sources of Sharia (principles of Islamic legislation) which are agreed upon by the Islamic Scholars are four i.e. Quran, Sunnah, consensus of Ummah (Ijmaa) and Qiyaas. Whereas, Public good and interest, Prohibition of evasive legal devices and Common practice and Law (urf) involve the debates on the purpose of Sharia which depends on the implementation of this system of justice. One debate is about Sharia and law and the other comprises on procedure of implementation of just system. The method of Nabi’s (SAW) revolution comprises of two words “Dawah and Jihad”; dawah is prominent in his Meccan life whereas Jihad is prominent in Medina’s life. For ending the oppression in Pakistan and establishing Justice system, struggle is being carried out in three ways; first one is Democracy, second is Rebellion and Qitaal, and the third methodology involves implementation of Justice in Pakistan through movement and protests. Also, the basic sources of Sharia, a brief introduction to the Prophet's method of enforcing Sharia and the methods by which the struggle for Sharia is going on in Pakistan have been discussed. In this article, it has been proved that the real purpose of the establishment of Pakistan, its stability as well as security, and our success in this world and the hereafter is connected to implementation of Islamic Sharia (System of Justice).
