LET THE CONFUSION ABOUT POLITICAL ISLAM END, A VEIL IS BEING DRAWN INSTEAD OF A DISCUSSION

ARA-------------------------Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath made an important point about political Islam. Many of our modern thinkers have also pointed out this. The actions and results of political Islam, that is, politics based on Islam, have been essentially the same throughout the world. India is its most important region, not only for the past hundreds of years, but even today.

Underlining this point, Yogi Adityanath said, "There is discussion about the years of colonial rule by the British in the country, but nowhere is there a discussion about political Islam, which even today operates with the intention of dismembering the Motherland."

Political Islam was the fundamental cause of India's partition. Muslim League leader Mohammad Ali Jinnah had championed political Islam. In his words (March 22, 1940), "Hindus and Muslims belong to two different civilizations, whose ideas and beliefs are opposite to each other. They draw their inspiration from different sources." Their inspiring stories, heroes, and contexts are completely different. Often, what is a hero to one is a villain to another.

It can be seen that there is a political insistence based on Islamic separatism, which can only be countered through ideological and political determination, but this will only be possible with proper understanding. It was because of this ignorance of political Islam that Gandhi and the Congress, by supporting the Khilafat Movement in 1919, inadvertently fueled the mindset of Islamic separatism and dominance.

Instead of discussing Islamic politics, it was obscured to conceal the mistakes of Congress leaders. This led to the demand for partition. This reluctance to consider political Islam has led to it receiving a walkover here.

Before Yogi Adityanath, Nobel Prize-winning Indian author V.S. Naipaul, in his article "The Writer and India" (1976) and his book "India: A Wounded Civilization" (1977), described the wounds inflicted by Islamic invasions. According to him, no civilization other than India has learned so little from its own destruction. Islamic leaders themselves have echoed what Naipaul and Yogi said, in their own way..

Their behavior and action plans remain the same. Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar, in his book "Pakistan or the Partition of India," wrote that "Muslim politics is essentially the politics of the mullahs, recognizing only one difference—the difference between Hindus and Muslims. No secular element of life has a place in the politics of the Muslim community, and they bow to only one guiding principle of the Muslim political community, which is called religion."

This religion is Islam, and therefore, there is no separate book for political Islam. The original Islamic texts themselves explain political strategy, tactics, and diplomacy in various situations. The meaning of all the fundamental concepts, such as kafir, jihad, Sharia, zimmi, jizya, haram, etc., can only be understood from the Quran and the biography of Muhammad. Where there are large numbers of non-Muslims, deception and pretense are key elements. The primary strategy is to seize power through complaints.

Islamic politics creates deceptive pressure through constant complaints, which, for the sake of appearance, creates the appearance of fear of the weak, but in reality, it is the strategy of the powerful. By its very definition, Islam is not only a religion but also a political one. Its rules and regulations are designed to be forcibly imposed on everyone, including non-Muslims (infidels). Islam's attitude towards non-Muslims is political Islam.

The Quran and Hadiths contain much about infidels. Infidels should understand all this. Otherwise, they will continue to perish in ignorance. This has happened in many areas such as Punjab, Bengal, Kashmir, and so on for the past hundred years. It must be seriously understood that the true strength of Islam lies in the ignorance of non-Muslims about it. Otherwise, Islamic societies across the world are virtually nonexistent in scientific, economic, and military fields. Due to the general ignorance of others about political Islam, it thrives everywhere through complaints, deceit, and pressure. This has been happening in India for a hundred years and in Europe for the last fifty.

Recently, the Indian History Congress passed a resolution on an educational module on the "Horrors of Partition of India." It objected to the term "political Islam," as if the concept itself were wrong, despite numerous books by international scholars on the subject. Our intellectuals and leaders deny the very existence of political Islam, which has been a constant attack on them for centuries. Often, its victims themselves are seen standing up to defend it.

This is why they find the words of Yogi Adityanath, V.S. Naipaul, or Dr. Ambedkar unconvincing, while the daily statements of Muslim leaders clearly demonstrate their principled rejection of any lasting coexistence or equality with non-Muslims. This is political Islam. In many Muslim countries, non-Muslims are forced to become inferior citizens.

This is the reason for the plight of Hindus in Pakistan and Bangladesh. If there had been clarity about political Islam, most of these horrors would not have occurred. Just as caution prevents many diseases, correct information about political Islam enables any society to resist it. The fight against political Islam is primarily an ideological and educational one, but the infidel world is immune to it. He hesitates.
