What is Jamaat-e-Islami's Dawah?

 

It is generally believed that we want to establish a Divine Government. The word Divine Government in itself is a bit vague, but some people will fully present it in a more misleading manner. Either people believe or they are made to believe so that by Divine Government, we mean nothing but a political system, which can replace the present one. Since those who will run it will be Muslim, so either it means or cleverly it is given, this meaning that our object is to get Government only and then follows a rather religious taunt that we are only world seekers, while, the hereafter should be the target. And that Government should not be sought on the other hand, it is given as a reward for a religious way of life by Allah himself. Some quarters say, it is due to lack of understanding and others quite coyly. Of course, if they cannot mislead us they certainly can a major chunk of the population. Should someone read our literature with open mind, he is bound to find that we do not stand for a political change only but we want to introduce that universal revolution in the individual and collective life of man which Islam calls for. And for which Allah Almighty sent whole lot of His Prophets under whose leadership Muslims always had striven.
