النظام الدولي القادم... دولة الخلافة الإسلامية

النظام الدولي القادم... دولة الخلافة الإسلامية


قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «..ثم تكون خلافةً على منهاج النبوة». النظام الدولي يتم تشكيله وصياغته من دولة عظمى تحمل مبدًأ يتكون من عقيدة ونظام، لأنها تكون قويةً وقادرةً على تنفيذ ونشر المبدأ الذي تعتنقه للدول الأخرى وشعوبها، وعليه فنظرة تاريخية غير بعيدة، تري الناظر والمفكر والسياسي وكل من له شأن، كيف كانت دولة الخلافة الإسلامية على مدى ثلاثة عشر قرنًا من الزمن ولغاية عام 1924م من القرن المنصرم الدولة الأولى عالميًا وبلا منازع بل حتى بلا شريك، وحال تآمرت الدول الأخرى عليها وبعض من أبناء جلدتنا، تم تقسيمها إلى دويلات سايكس وبيكو، وبعد انتهاء الحرب العالمية الثانية ظهرت أمريكا والاتحاد السوفياتي، وأخذ ينتظم النظام الدولي ضمن اتفاقات سياسية منها السري والعلني، وانقسم العالم إلى معسكرين: معسكر شرقي موالٍ للاتحاد السوفياتي الذي يحمل المبدأ الاشتراكي، ومعسكر غربي بقيادة أمريكا التي تحمل المبدأ الرأسمالي.


ومعلوم أنه في أواخر ثمانينات القرن الماضي تم انهيار الاتحاد السوفياتي، وتفككت دول المعسكر الشرقي، وبقيت روسيا أقوى دولة تتأرجح بين قوة وضعف حتى أقصتها أمريكا من المسرح الدولي العالمي، ووصل الأمر قبل عام تقريبًا بفرض عقوبات اقتصادية عليها في القضية الأوكرانية، وانفردت أمريكا بالنظام الدولي منذ أواخر تسعينات القرن الماضي، وأخذت تسوس العالم بنظامها الرأسمالي، ونشر الديمقراطية بأدواتها من صندوق النقد الدولي والبنك الدولي وهيئة الأمم المتحدة، وقد كان من نتاج تلك القيادة أن حدثت الأمور الآتية:


• خاض العالم حربين عالميتين قتل على أثرهما ما يزيد على ستين مليون من البشر.


• وضعت قوانين جعلت من الدولار الأمريكي غطاءً ومرجعيةً لكل عملات العالم.


• أوجدت منظمة التجارة العالمية وفكرة تحرر السوق، حيث أكل القوي الضعيف، وتقلصت الطبقة الوسطى.


• أشعلت العديد من الحروب، وقتل الملايين من البشر، وهجر غيرهم، ودمرت أكثر من بلد (أفغانستان والعراق).


• تحكم أصحاب رؤوس الأموال والشركات الكبرى بمصير دول وشعوب (شركات النفط الأمريكية والإنجليزية).


• الدعوة للفجور والمجون والسفور وانتشار المخدرات تحت دعوى الحرية الشخصية وتحرر المرأة.


• ازدياد القتل والجريمة والتمييز العنصري وهجرة العقول وإشاعة الحروب الإقليمية والطائفية والتفجيرات.


• ازدياد الجوع والتشرد والفقر والأمراض المستعصية وغيرها.


• ازدياد الأسعار العالمية، واستعباد الناس بالقليل من الأجور وهضم الحقوق.


• وغير ذلك كثير من الأمور التي يطول تعدادها وبحثها.


وعليه فإن العالم بعد هذا الاستعراض لما سبق، حدث به العديد من التحركات التي تنذر بثورات عالمية وتنذر بسقوط وتنحي الدولة الأولى (أمريكا) عن عرشها وخصوصًا بعد دخولها بالأزمة المالية العالمية، وعدم القدرة على الخروج منها، وحصول تحركات عديدة كان أقواها وأشهرها ما سمي بالربيع العربي، وقلب أنظمة حكم جثمت فوق الصدور عقودًا من الزمن تتحكم بالشعوب، وقد كانت صنيعةً للغرب وأمريكا، وقد تلاها مظاهرات وول ستريت في عقر أمريكا نفسها، وقتل فيها العديد وتم التعتيم عليها، ومن ثَم مظاهرات إسبانيا واليونان ونيوزلندا..، وأخيرًا تحركات الفرنسيين ضد التقشف، ولم يستطع العالم إيجاد حل لأموره الاقتصادية التي تنذر بالهاوية جميع الناس غنيهم قبل فقيرهم، وكذلك لم تستطع أمريكا ومعها أوروبا من إيجاد حل لكثير من قضايا العالم مثل قضايا دول الربيع العربي، وأوكرانيا وأفريقيا وقضايا الأقليات العالمية، وقضية ثورة الشام التي امتدت للعام الخامس على التوالي، ومثلها ليبيا واليمن انزلقت للمحظور، فكل ذلك يدل على التخبط والفشل العالمي للدولة الأولى التي تتحكم بمصير الشعوب والعالم.


ومما يعلمه المتابع للسياسة الدولية وتاريخ الدول والشعوب، وكما يقول ابن خلدون: "إن أعمار الدول كأعمار الأفراد، فإنها تشيخ وتهرم..".


وحيث إن المبدأين اللذين سادا العالم وهما: "الاشتراكية والرأسمالية" قد ثبت فشلهما عقائديًا وتشريعيًا، وهما مبدآن من وضع البشر، فإن المبدأ العالمي الثالث وهو الإسلام عقيدة ونظام حياة، منذ قرابة القرن لا تمثله أية دولة في العالم كله، وقد هدمت دولته عام 1924م كما أسلفنا، وهو يشبه هذه الأيام بـ "مارد الخلافة" الذي يتململ ليخرج من القمقم، وقد امتاز عن غيره من المبادئ بالمميزات الآتية:


• مبدأ عقيدته ربانية، ونظامه رباني من جنسه.


• مبدأ أثبت وجوده قرابة الثلاثة عشر قرنًا، ولم يستعبد البشرية، ولم ينهب ثرواتها.


• مبدأ عالمي، يعالج جميع المشاكل لكل بني البشر بإنصاف سماوي، وعدل ورحمة.


• مبدأ الرحمة للعالمين، يقول تعالى: ﴿وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِلْعَالَمِينَ﴾. [الأنبياء: 107]


• مبدأ إنساني يهدي للتي هي أقوم، يقول تعالى: ﴿إِنَّ هَـٰذَا الْقُرْ‌آنَ يَهْدِي لِلَّتِي هِيَ أَقْوَمُ﴾. [الإسراء: 9]


• مبدأ لا يُكره الناس على اتباع دين معين يقول تعالى: ﴿لا إِكرَ‌اهَ فِي الدِّينِ قَد تبَيَّنَ الرُّ‌شْدُ مِنَ الْغَيِّ فَمَن يَكْفُرْ‌ بِالطَّاغُوتِ وَيُؤْمِن بِالله فَقَدِ استمْسَكَ بِالْعُرْ‌وَةِ الْوُثقَىٰ لَا انفِصَامَ لَهَا وَاللَّـهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ﴾. [البقرة: 256]


• مبدأ حاكمه إنسان، ومحاسبة الحاكم فرض فرضه على الإنسان ربُّ الإنسان.


• مبدأ دولته دولة بشرية، لا دولة إلهية أو كنسية، وقوانينه إلهية لا قوانين إنسانية علمانية.


• مبدأ دولته خلافة على منهاج النبوة.


إن النظام الدولي القادم يتشكل بشكل طبيعي، وذلك بتقدم طبيعي ممن يحملون فكرة هذا المبدأ الإسلامي العالمي رحمةً للعالمين، فيحملونه بطريقة فكرية لا بطريقة القتل والتفجير والتدمير، ولا بطريقة أمريكا التي تستعمر وتستعبد الشعوب، وتمتص خيراتهم وثرواتهم لصالح أسياد المبدأ الرأسمالي أي أصحاب رؤوس الأموال وخدمهم من السياسيين الذين يتحكمون بمصير شعوب العالم، وكما يحلو لهم ولأهوائهم ورغباتهم وشهواتهم، نعم إنه فكر يسري بجسد الأمة الإسلامية من أدناها إلى أقصاها، حتى إذا جاء أوانها واستأهلت أمة الإسلام دولة الخلافة على منهاج النبوة جاءها نصر من الله تعالى وفتح مبين، وانهزم الأحزاب وأحلافهم وعملاؤهم.


وهذه ليست أحلامًا وتخرصاتٍ وأمانيَّ، بل نتاج عمل سياسي وفكري دؤوب وصبور وتضحيات جسام، ونتاج دراسات وأبحاث مراكز استراتيجية، فانظروا لمجلة الوعي - حيث نشرت موضوعًا تحت عنوان: "حتمية المصالحة مع دولة الخلافة الخامسة رسالة جون شيا إلى الرئيس أوباما". ويمكنكم متابعته من خلال هذا الرابط: "...www.al-waie.org/issues/279/article.php?id=888_0_69_0_C".


بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم مرة أخرى يعود مشروع «الخلافة» للتداول على المسرح الدولي بالرغم من وجود... الكاتب جون شيا للرئيس الأمريكي: "إن عليك أن تضع استراتيجيةً للتعامل مع الدولة التي ستقوم لكيفية التعامل معها....". وحذر "محمد الإبياري" مستشار الرئيس الأمريكي للأمن الداخلي، من مواجهة قيام الخلافة الإسلامية، مؤكدًا أن الخيار الوحيد للولايات المتحدة هو احتواؤها لجعلها مثل الاتحاد الأوروبي، كتنظيم منظم على حد قوله.


وقال "الإبياري" في تغريدة له على موقع التواصل (الاجتماعي) "تويتر"، أثارت الجدل في أمريكا: "كما قلت من قبل: إن عودة الخلافة أمر حتمي... والخيار الوحيد لنا أن ندعم رؤيةً تجعلها مثل الاتحاد الأوروبي"، ومن يريد الاستزادة فليراجع دراسات المراكز الاستراتيجية، وأقوال المفكرين والسياسيين في العالم العربي والغربي.


وقبل النهاية ندعو المسلمين والمفكرين في العالم أجمع للعمل على تخليص شعوب العالم من جيفة النظام الدولي الحالي، والذي أزكمت رائحته الأنوف، وقتل الملايين من البشر، واستعبد البشرية لصالح قلة قليلة من أصحاب رؤوس الأموال من تجار السلاح والبترول ومافيا الدواء وأمثالهم...، وأن يستعدوا ليكون لهم دور في إنقاذ البشرية وإخراجها من الظلمات إلى النور، ومن جور النظام الرأسمالي إلى رحمة الإسلام، ومن الفقر والجوع إلى بحبوحة إطعام الجائع وابن السبيل، إلى ذلك ندعو المسلمين وكل البشر لاستقبال النظام الدولي الجديد القادم، ألا وهو نظام دولة الخلافة على منهاج النبوة. قال تعالى: ﴿وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنكُمْ وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّهُمْ فِي الْأَرْ‌ضِ كَمَا اسْتَخْلَفَ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ دِينَهُمُ الَّذِي ارْ‌تَضَىٰ لَهُمْ وَلَيُبَدِّلَنَّهُم مِّن بَعْدِ خَوْفِهِمْ أَمْنًا يَعْبُدُونَنِي لَا يُشْرِ‌كُونَ بِي شَيْئًا وَمَن كَفَرَ‌ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُولَـٰئِكَ هُمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ﴾.

The tongue of the wise man is behind his heart

Al-Hasan al-Basri heard a man talking too much, so he said: O son of my brother, hold your tongue, for it has been said: There is nothing more worthy of imprisonment than the tongue.

It was narrated that the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: (And what causes people to be thrown on their faces into the Fire except the harvests of their tongues?) Narrated by al-Darimi mursal, Ibn Abd al-Barr, Ibn Abi Shaybah, and Ibn al-Mubarak.

He used to say: The tongue of the wise man is behind his heart, so if he wants to speak, he thinks, and if the speech is in his favor, he speaks, and if it is against him, he remains silent. And the heart of the ignorant person is behind his tongue, whenever he intends to speak, he speaks.

How did Islam enter Sudan?

How did Islam enter Sudan?

How did Islam enter Sudan?

The Sudan known today by its geography did not represent a unified political, cultural, or religious entity before the arrival of Muslims, as it was divided among different races, ethnicities, and beliefs. In the north, where the Nubians lived, Orthodox Christianity was prevalent as a belief, and the Nubian language, in its various dialects, was the language of politics, culture, and communication. In the east, the Beja tribes lived, who are Hamitic tribes (attributed to Ham, son of Noah), with their own language, separate culture, and different beliefs from those in the north. If we head south, we find the Negroid tribes with their distinctive features, their own languages, and pagan beliefs. The same is true in the west. ([1])

This diversity and ethnic and cultural pluralism are among the most prominent features and characteristics of the population structure in pre-Islamic Sudan, resulting from several factors, especially since Sudan enjoys a strategic geographic location in Northeast Africa. It represents a gateway to the Horn of Africa and a link between the Arab world and North Africa, and between sub-Saharan Africa. This location has given it a major role in civilizational and cultural communication and political and economic interactions throughout history. In addition, it has vital sea outlets on the Red Sea, one of the most important trade routes in the world.

The first migration of the Companions, may God be pleased with them, to the land of Abyssinia (in Rajab of the fifth year of prophethood, which is the second year of proclaiming the Da'wah) can be seen as the first indication of early contact between nascent Islam and the communities of eastern Sudan. Although the purpose of the migration was originally to seek a safe haven from persecution in Mecca, this step represented the beginning of the first Islamic presence in the African and Sudanese space. In the year 6 AH, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, sent with his messenger Amr bin Umayya a letter to Al-Najashi inviting him to Islam ([2]), and Al-Najashi replied with a letter in which he showed his acceptance.

With the conquest of Egypt at the hands of Amr ibn al-Aas during the reign of the Rashidun Caliph Omar ibn al-Khattab in 20 AH/641 AD, the Nubians felt the danger when the Islamic state began to establish its administrative and political influence over the northern Nile Valley, especially in Upper Egypt, which represented a strategic and geographical extension of the Sudanese Nubian kingdoms. Therefore, the Nubian kingdoms began launching preemptive attacks on Upper Egypt as a defensive reaction. Caliph Omar ibn al-Khattab, may God be pleased with him, ordered the governor of Egypt, Amr ibn al-Aas, to send detachments towards the land of Nubia in Sudan to secure the southern borders of Egypt and to convey the Islamic call. In turn, Amr ibn al-Aas sent an army led by Uqba ibn Nafi al-Fihri in the year 21 AH, but the army was forced to retreat, as the people of Nubia met it with great courage, and many Muslims returned with gouged eyes. The Nubians were skilled archers, making accurate hits even in the eyes, which is why the Muslims called them "archers of the pupils." In the year 26 AH (647 AD), Abdullah ibn Abi al-Sarh was appointed governor of Egypt during the days of Uthman ibn Affan and prepared to meet the Nubians, leading a well-equipped campaign and was able to penetrate south to Dongola*, the capital of the Christian Nubian kingdom in the year 31 AH/652 AD, and besieged the city severely. When they asked him for reconciliation and truce, Abdullah ibn Abi al-Sarh agreed to that ([3]). He concluded a peace treaty with them called the Covenant or Agreement of Baqt** and built a mosque in Dongola. Researchers have strived to understand the meaning of Baqt, some saying it is Latin, (Pactum) meaning agreement, but historians and writers do not see this peace treaty as other peace treaties in which Muslims imposed jizya on those who reconciled with them, but rather considered it an agreement or truce between Muslims and Nubians.

Abdullah ibn Abi al-Sarh pledged to them security, that the Muslims would not fight them, and that the Nubians would enter the lands of the Muslims as passers-by, not residents, and the Nubians would protect whoever entered their land from the Muslims or those under covenant until they left it ([4]). They were also required to maintain the mosque that the Muslims built in Dongola, sweep it, light it, and honor it, and not prevent anyone from praying in it, and to pay 360 heads of their average slaves each year. In return, the Muslims would donate annual supplies of grains and clothing (because the Nubian king complained of a lack of food in his country), but they were not obligated to repel an enemy or raider of their country. With this peace, the Muslims were reassured about the safety of their borders from the south, ensured cross-border trade between the two countries, and obtained the strong arms of Nubia to serve the state. With the movement of goods, ideas also moved, and preachers and merchants played a pivotal role in spreading Islam in Nubia through peaceful means, especially through good dealings. Trade caravans carried with them belief, language, civilization, and a way of life, just as they carried trade goods.

Arabic also became increasingly present in the daily life of Sudanese societies, especially in northern Sudan. This agreement represented a kind of permanent contact between the Muslims and the Christian Nubians that lasted for six centuries ([5]). During that time, the Islamic faith infiltrated the northern part of eastern Sudan from the mid-seventh century AD at the hands of Muslim merchants and Arab immigrants. These major Arab migrations infiltrated through 3 routes: first: from Egypt, second from the Hijaz via the ports of Badi, Aydhab and Suakin, and third: from Morocco and North Africa through the central Sudan. However, the impact of these groups was not effective due to their small size compared to the large numbers that moved from Egypt to the south since the ninth century AD, after which the land of Beja, Nubia and Central Sudan was melted by the Arab element. At that time, the Abbasid Caliph Al-Mu'tasim (218-227 AH/833-842 AD) decided to rely on Turkish soldiers and abandon Arab soldiers, which is considered a dangerous turning point in the history of Arabs in Egypt. Thus, the third century AH/ninth century AD witnessed wide Arab migrations to Sudan, and then penetration into the vast plains south and east ([6]), which helped stability in these areas to connect with the people of the country, influence them, and accept Islam and enter into it.

In the twelfth century AD, following the Crusaders' occupation of Palestine, the Sinai route for Egyptian and Moroccan pilgrims was no longer safe, so they turned to the port of Aydhab (known as the Port of Gold, located on the Red Sea coast). When the pilgrimage movement became active there and Muslims frequented it on their way to and from the holy lands in the Hijaz, the ships carrying goods from Yemen and India began to anchor there, thus its area was populated and its movement increased, and Aydhab occupied an excellent position in the religious and commercial life of Muslims. ([7])

When the kings of Nubia broke the covenant whenever they found weakness or weakness from the Muslims and raided Aswan and the positions of Muslims in Egypt, especially during the days of its king David in 1272 AD, the Muslims were forced to fight them during the days of al-Zahir Baybars, and a new treaty was concluded between the two parties in 1276 AD, and finally Sultan al-Nasir bin Qalawun opened Dongola in 1317 AD, and the king of Nubia, Abdullah, son of King David's brother, converted to Islam in 1316 AD, which facilitated its spread there, and the land of Nubia entered Islam permanently.([8])

As for the Christian kingdom of Alwa, it was overthrown following the alliance between the Arab Abdallab tribes and the Zanj Funj in 1504 AD, and the Islamic Funj kingdom was established, also known as the "Sennar Sultanate" after the capital, and also as the "Blue Kingdom." The Sennar kingdom is considered the first Arab Islamic state established in Sudan after the spread of Islam and the Arabic language there([9]).

As a result of the increasing Arab Islamic influence, the royal families in Nubia, Alwa, Sennar, Taqali and Darfur became Muslim after they were Christian or pagan. The ruling class's conversion to Islam was enough to bring about a multi-dimensional revolution in the history of Sudan. Muslim ruling families were formed, and with them the first models of Sudanese Islamic kingdoms were established, which had a great impact on empowering this religion and effectively contributed to spreading the Islamic religion, consolidating its pillars, laying its foundations, and establishing the foundations of Islamic civilization in the land of Sudan. Some kings assumed the role of preachers in their countries and understood their role as guardians who were responsible for conveying and preserving this religion, so they ordered what is right, forbade what is wrong, judged according to God's law, established justice as much as they could, and called to God and strived in His cause. ([10])

Thus, the call of Islam proceeded strongly and effectively in this region amidst hurricanes of paganism and Christian evangelism campaigns. Thus, Sudan is considered one of the most famous regions in which the peaceful Da'wah represented the true model for the spread of Islam, and the ability of Muslims to spread their faith through persuasion, argument, and good treatment emerged. Caravan trade and jurists played a major role in spreading Islam in the Sudanese lands, where markets replaced battlefields, and honesty, truthfulness, and good treatment replaced the sword in spreading the doctrine of monotheism([11]). In this regard, the jurist historian Abu al-Abbas Ahmad Baba al-Tanbukti says: "The people of Sudan embraced Islam voluntarily without anyone taking control of them, like the people of Kano and Borno. We have not heard that anyone took control of them before their Islam."

** Appendix: Covenant from Prince Abdullah bin Saad bin Abi Sarh to the Great of Nubia and to all the people of his kingdom:

"A covenant he made to the great and small of Nubia, from the border of the land of Aswan to the border of the land of Alwa, that Abdullah bin Saad has given them security and a truce running between them and the Muslims who border them from the people of Upper Egypt and other Muslims and the people of the Dhimma, that you, the Nubian community, are safe with the security of God and the security of His Messenger Muhammad the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that we will not fight you, nor wage war against you, nor invade you, as long as you abide by the conditions between us and you, that you enter our country as passers-by, not residents in it, and we enter your country as passers-by, not residents in it, and you must protect whoever enters your country, or visits it, from Muslims or those under covenant, until he leaves you, and you must return every runaway who comes to you from the slaves of the Muslims, until you return him to the land of Islam, and do not seize him, nor prevent him from it, nor interfere with a Muslim who intends to reach him and argue with him until he leaves him, and you must protect the mosque that the Muslims built in the courtyard of your city, and do not prevent a worshiper from it, and you must sweep it, light it, and honor it, and you must pay three hundred and sixty heads every year, which you pay to the Imam of the Muslims from the average slaves of your country who are not defective, including males and females, in which there is no decrepit old man, nor an old woman, nor a child who has not reached puberty, you pay that to the governor of Aswan, and no Muslim has to repel an enemy that comes to you, nor prevent him from you, from the border of the land of Alwa to the land of Aswan, if you harbor a Muslim slave or kill a Muslim or someone under covenant, or interfere with the mosque that the Muslims built in the courtyard of your city by demolishing it, or prevent anything from the three hundred and sixty heads, then this truce and security are void, and we and you are back to square one until God judges between us, and He is the best of judges, with that is God's covenant and His pledge and His guarantee and the guarantee of His Messenger Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, and we have upon you for that the greatest thing you adhere to of the guarantee of Christ, and the guarantee of the apostles, and the guarantee of whoever you magnify from the people of your religion and your sect.

God is the witness between us and you on that. Written by Amr bin Shurahbil in Ramadan, year thirty-one."

* Before Islam, the land of Nubia was divided into 3 kingdoms: Nubia, Makuria, and Alwa (from Aswan in the south to Khartoum currently). Then, after that, the kingdoms of Nubia and Makuria united between 570 AD and 652 AD and were called the Kingdom of Nubia, and its capital was Dongola.
