world-wide to strive for establishment of Khilafat as
without it, Islamic was incomplete. Under Khilafat, all
human beings would have to obey the commandments of the
almighty.

in world wars, break-up of Islamic Khilafat, massacre of
innocent people in Bosnia and Chechnya and attacks on
holy places like A1 Aqsa mosque.

justifying the exploitation of the weak nations by the
stronger countries.
