The Constitution of Medina is where Pakistan should be

Constitution of Medina is where Pakistani society should be heading and here is why:

A society based on faith

Although Muslims were in minority, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) emphasized that the “main binding tie” for the newly-created Ummah is religion, with protection to other faiths and customs. Therefore, Pakistan needs more faith in Allah, not less.

Collective responsibility of Security for Ummah

Stable tribal relations within Medina, a tax system for supporting the Ummah in time of conflict, Medina as a sacred place (barring all violence and weapons). So Pakistan is the sacred bastion for Muslims worldwide.

Taxation with representation

While each tribe paid tax for security, representation was granted to each member in external political alliances. The organization of the Islamic Conference needs to be given more teeth, with Pakistan in the lead role.

A pluralistic society with individual rights

Religious freedoms, the security of women, a system for granting protection of individuals, a judicial system for resolving disputes without assimilating diverse groups, and regulated paying of blood money, to end violence. Pakistan’s salvation and protection of vulnerable groups (women) require Pluralism and even more democracy. Here is a quote from our leader Muhammad Ali Jinnah on Pluralistic society.

The first Ummah comprising Non-Muslims & Muslims

It effectively established the first Islamic state. The non-muslims’ of Medina were included in the Ummah because they were “one community with the believers,” they also “have their religion and the Muslims have theirs.” Pakistani non-muslims should be granted rights of citizenship without prejudice.
