What should be the foundation and basis of governance? Allah Almighty says: “(By the sky) which He (the Most Gracious) has raised high, and He has set up the balance (of justice)” (Al-Rahman: 7). The discovery of this balance in space occurred in modern scientific times. When the Earth orbits around the sun, it starts its rotation at a point where there are two scales on either side. The scale within the orbit is named Lagrange Point-1 (L1). The scale outside the orbit is Point Number 2. After a whole year, the Earth returns between L1 and L2. People! If...

“Through His final Messenger (peace be upon him), Allah warned the Muslim Ummah about the extremism of the Jews.

Allah has blessed us with a great blessing, and the name of this blessing is Pakistan. How should we appreciate such a blessing? How should we protect it? The method for this has been shown by the last messenger of Allah, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). He said, ‘The case of those who guard the limits set by Allah and those who trespass therein (those who ruin the system) is like the case of people who drew lots for their seats in a boat (a ship).
