Impacts of injustice
- Injustice is the basic key which spoils the whole system and results in a corrupt and spoiled society
- It spoils the ideology of any society resulting sick and criminal behaviours of people
- Basic cause of insecurity which promotes people to gain any kind of powers to survive by any means and to seek strength of protection for them selves, for their dependents and loved ones because of defective, illogical, unjust, inhuman and unethical society. As availability of material resources is the first easy source of strength in any sick society like our society of Pakistan without comprehensive social justice and without being a comprehensive welfare society
Few important forms of comprehensive injustices

Solutions to resolve the issues of corruption in society
- Better System of Government and leadership
- Writ of law
- Reduction in unnecessary government machinery
- Capacity building of system and human resource
- Rational and good remunerations to government employees
- Reliance to national resources
- Boost to private and local enterprises
- Whole system of government including laws and rules of country needs to be reviewed by competent, well paid, positive and patriot, law knowing people who should be well educated and experts of laws and rules to revalidate and improve the laws, rules and procedures in totality. All sick laws, rules and procedures need to be improved, changed or destroyed as per need. The rules and laws should be easy to understand, logical and comfortable to implement
- Fair, open and speedy trials and disposals of issues and cases according to law, along with accountability (But the accountability should be from top to bottom and not from bottom to top)
- No innocent should ever suffer to any limit or be punished in any case. If by mistake it happens that must be compensated to satisfaction of sufferer.
- Focus to law of tort should be brought in practice to improve the norms of society as in Europe
- Proper and thorough monitoring towards implementation which can only be possible to small sized government machinery and not to over expanded government machinery
Better System of Government
There is no any system of government which fails if not based on injustice and discrimination. Suggestions about the system of government required for Pakistan are as follows
- Elected Presidential form of Government as per USA but modified according to requirement of our country prepared by the best experts of law having un-doubtful credibility and integrity and should not have any concern with Government or to any political party. As USA constitution and system of Government has close resemblance to System of Government in ancient Islamic States
- Reduction in Government and system of government
- Effective implementation of merit and justice in government machinery
- The three important tiers of government i.e. Legislative Body, Judiciary and Executive should be independent and power full but must have counter checks on each other to be devised in constitution for smooth system of government as well as accountable to each other.
- Islam has about four main fundamental concepts for the formulation of government
- Rule of divines law given by Allah in Quran and further illustrated by Sunnah
- Only one competent elected/selected Muslim (Having Education of Highest Level concerning to System of Government i.e must at least possess a valid degree of Law) should be the head of state as in elected Presidential form of Government and not a group as it happens in parliamentary form of Governments. Important Portfolios and Ministries should be separate from Legislative bodies to keep the legislation impartial, neat and clean
- The people who have to elect rulers must be educated to some specific level i.e. the voters must be educated to some level. It may be a minimum of matriculate or more. As the Khalifas (Islamic Rulers) were elected or selected by the Shuraas consisting of scholars of the time and not by general public. So only well aware people should play role to elect/select people to form government
- The rulers should not have any exemption before the law.
The qualities required by the leadership to come forward
The leaders to come forward must have following set of concepts and slogan
- Fear of Allah
- Vision
- Automated and fair comprehensive justice without any discrimination and without any effort to seek (i.e. At door step on merit without any effort)
- Truth
- Value of time
- Value of competence
- Value of hard work
- Having concept to boost local and private enterprises
- Reliance to national resources
- Honest
Corruption can never be reduced without comprehensive justice nor without qualitative leadership to come or brought forward
Humble submission to address corruption and to curtail it gradually the whole system of Pakistan needs review in totality i.e. all the laws, rules and system needs reviewing and all the flaws and defective rules and laws need to be destroyed. All the system needs to be revised and reviewed according to true massage of Islam mainly given in Quran, along with all of system needs to be based on comprehensive justice, reduction in government machinery at every level according to right sizing, the whole system should be based on logic, human nature, rationalism, justice, humanity, love, truth, humbled, vision and support.
Muslims of the world need “Jihad” of Good Governments & Governance, Comprehensive Justice, Education, Peace, Science & Technology, Boost to Economy, Self-Reliance, Islamic & Moral values, Love, Humanity, Care, Prosperity, Quality of Life and Living Norms, Good relations with other nations based on Principles But not “Jihad” of wars, killings, weapons and hate to reach to a non-corrupt and self-relied “just” states and to become “Darul Islam” for Muslims and Non-Muslims of the World and to prove glory of Islam and Islamisation. It will help our nation and the Muslims of the world to lead the world in glorious manner.
