There is a lot of discussion going on about if ZH should or should not be followed and following someone blindly and so forth. I have been thinking what is it that ZH is asking us to follow and believe? Lets see;
ZH is only asking us to rise and shine. He is only asking us to come out of this cloak of fear that we have around us which makes us think that we are safe as long as we have this over us and if we keep our eyes closed the cat will go away.
He is only asking us to hold on to the principles and teaching of Holy Prophet(SAWWS). To talk with arguments ,to be helpful to fellow humans,to follow the dictats of Allah, to spread the message with love and peace but at the same time letting all know that if agrression is brought to us we will respond.
He is only talking of rebuilding Pakistan with tender love and compassion, he is only talking of rights for the people and responsibilities of the leaders.
He is talking about the responsibilities of the religious leaders and what they are not supposed to do and that is not very different from what we know based on our own knowledge of the religion.
He has not once ever stated that a particular ethnic or religious sect is better than other, he talks of only the bad eggs among the lot and we all know that is true. He has never tried to divide the ummah or the people of Pakistan.
In short he has promised us only struggle and hardship but like the universal truth, at the end of this long struggle is the light that we are seeking and we will find it Inshallah.
Unlike politicians that we have believed and followed with their promises of the ever elusive heavens, if we understand the ideology and philosophy and follow it romantically it can never be blind!
Now tell me what is wrong with that?
What do you want to see? Do you still want to be divided and ruled? Do you still want to be fooled? I am not expecting a miracle but this might make you think more logically. PPP started on political grounds. Ji on religiopolitical, ML was an ideological party in its inception,ideology beyond ethnicitiy. MQM is ethnically raised party and to date has found it hard to break the mould.
