Q 4: What is the effective way you suggest for the Muslim world to get out of the whirlwind it is experiencing at the present time? 
A 4: Rescuing the Muslim world from the dilemma it is going through embodied in the various sectarian, convictional, political, social, and economic divisions can only be attained by adhering to Islam and ruling according to Allah's Shari`ah in all affairs, thus achieving unity among Muslims. 
This is the efficacious cure not only for the Muslim world but for the entire world in light of the disturbance, disparity, trouble, and mischief that is occurring, according to the Saying of Allah (Exalted be He): O you who believe! If you help (in the cause of) Allâh, He will help you, and make your foothold firm. page140image4013835120Allah (Exalted be He) also says: Verily, Allâh will help those who help His (Cause). Truly, Allâh is All­Strong, All­Mighty. page140image4013845184page140image4013845584Those (Muslim rulers) who, if We give them 
power in the land, (they) enjoin Iqamat­as­Salât [i.e. to perform the five compulsory congregational Salât (prayers) (the males in mosques)], to pay the Zakât and they enjoin Al­Ma‘rûf (i.e. Islâmic Monotheism and all that Islâm orders one to do), and forbid Al­ Munkar (i.e. disbelief, polytheism and all that Islâm has forbidden) [i.e. they make the Qur’ân as the law of their country in all the spheres of life]. And with Allâh rests the end of (all) matters (of creatures). In addition to Allâh has promised those among you who believe and do righteous good deeds, that He will certainly grant them succession to (the present rulers) in the land, as He granted it to those before them, and that He will grant them the authority to practise their religion which He has chosen for them (i.e. Islâm). And He will surely give them in exchange a safe security after their fear (provided) they (believers) worship Me and do not associate anything (in worship) with Me. and, And hold fast, all of you together, to the Rope of Allâh (i.e. this Qur’ân), and be not

However, since most rulers, except for a few, resort to other than Allah's Book and the Sunnah of his Messenger (peace be upon him) to rule therewith while abandoning the Shari`ah and enforcing the laws prescribed by the enemies, they will not find a way out of 
( Part No : 5, Page No: 262) 
underdevelopment and backwardness. They feud among themselves while their enemies scorn and wrong them. Allah (Glorified be He) says, Allâh wronged them not, but they wronged themselves. 
May Allah gather them to guidance, consolidate their hearts and deeds, let them rule and abide by His Shari`ah and abandon all that conflicts with it. He is the Most­Able to do this. May Allah's peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
