Hierocracy
I am wondering to see that everyone is paying tribute to General Raheel, with assumption that whatever going on is due to his clear vision, decision...s and in the interest of Pakistan.
It is the height of hypocrisy, which we as a whole being part of this crowd inherit.
Now let’s see the real issue in view of the prevailing law and constitution of this land. According to constitution, armed forces are bound to follow the orders of the Government & Prime Minister in letter & spirit. Now, if the armed forces are performing their duties well, then the credit should be given to Government & Prime Minister.
Therefore, General, Raheel being as government servant of grade 22, is just doing his duty according to law and nothing special. It fits to all others honest civil and military beauracery, judiciary, who are performing their duties as presirbed and for which the peoples paid to them.
In case if general Raheel, is doing anything on his own without the instruction of Government & Prime Minister, then under the constitution he is liable for punishment, as the peoples demand for other violators of the constitution. So we should not mix up things and have double standreds.
However, it is the historical facts that all the Mafias’ are united to exploits the people’s and are safeguarding interests of their Masters. These includes politicians, religious parties, civil and military beauracery, judiciary, traders, industrialists, feudal lords etc. etc. Peoples being ignorant are being made fool from long time on the name of different slogans both by Civil & military rulers.
May we need to recall the vision of Great Quaid-e-Azam, who was chosen by Allah for the creation of a piece of land to establish dean-e-Islam. After independency an army officer, Ayub Khan (Who thereafter became first military dictator), during a ceremony tried to give his opinion on a certain issue to Great Quaid-e-Azam, and our Quaid given him shut up call and warned him not to interfere in government affairs but to follow the instructions of the government only.
It is on the record, how he then taken revenge from this country by imposing Martial law and how he manipulated election results to defeat Mother of Nation, Fatima Jinnah.
It is the history that he introduced “Family Laws” which are contrary to Quran and Sunnah and still is the part of our constitution.
Books can be written on the roles of all our civil and military rulers, who ruined and still are busy in exploiting peoples.
In short, it is our hypocrisy which witnessed in all field of life and in return we are facing ultimate “AZAB” from Allah.
The only way of survival of all of us is seek mercy and forgiveness from Allah with whole hearty and revert back to QURAN and Allah's orders. May Allah bless all of us with Hadith and guidance to reserve our capabilities and resources for the Establishment of Deen-e- Islam on this land. Ameen.
for the Establishment of Deen-e- Islam on this land. Ameen.
