The term ‘’Islamic Republic’’ is often used for naming various Muslim countries, but just few of them are following the basic rules, teachings and principles of Islam, strange but true. Islam is the religion of more than 1 billion people around the world, and it is a speedily growing religion. In United States of America, more than 1 million non Muslims have converted into Muslims. Islam is a perfect religion that guides individuals regarding each and every aspect of life, but sadly most of Muslims are not following the teachings of Islam.
About five or six hundred years ago, Islamic culture was much sophisticated. Muslim enjoyed good health, justice, peace, respect, and lived the longest due to their deep faith in Islam. They had the highest literacy rates, the most advance technical and scientific research centers and brave victorious armies. They were true Muslims following the basic rules and principles of Islam. Muslim used to belong to a superior civilization in all aspects of life, but today we lack prosperity and battle field victories in the Muslim world.
Today, Muslims are much busy in their earning activities and have no time to concentrate on the teachings of Islam. Muslims are now Clustering from top towards bottom due to their low faith levels. In term of political stability, military power, economic development, heath, human rights, literacy, longevity Muslims are continually clustering down and down. According to a recent survey, the majority of people who are living under the line of poverty are Muslims. Once Muslims were masters of the world, and now they are not even masters of their own Mosques.
What are those factors that are leading the Muslims toward poverty, backwardness and illiteracy. Majority of Muslims have absorbed the tradition and culture of others. Someone need modern technology to protect them, another tend to be a modern individual by dressing themselves in a non-Muslim way. Muslims are following the culture, traditions and other things those are prohibited in Islam. Drinking and raping have become a common factor in the Muslim world. All these things are beyond the rules and principles of Islam and Sharia.
Whenever there is a Sharia based government does not take power as in Afghanistan, Iran and Sudan, the result is a huge disaster. Today Muslims have totally forgotten the basic principles of Islam. Now, we are living in a society where each and every individual has his own varies principles regarding Islam.
In order to take the Muslims from this misery, all the Muslim countries need to be united and start a campaign of understanding the true and basic concept of Islam. We all Muslim must be united to solve our international and complicated issues. Muslim leaders need to force Islamic laws and regulation in each and every Muslim country. It seems to be a difficult task, but it is the only way that brings the Muslims towards prosperity.
