| “Mankind! We created you from a male and female, and
made you into nations and tribes so that you might come to know each other
(not that you may despise and hate each other). The most honorable among you
in the sight of Allah is the one with the most taqwah (i.e. pious and
righteous persons who fear Allah much and abstain from all kinds of sinful
acts and evil deeds which He has forbidden, and love Allah much and perform
all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained). Allah is All-Knowing,
All-Aware.” The Noble Qur’aan: 49:13 “And among His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the difference (variety) of your languages and colors. Verily, in that are indeed Signs for men (men and women) of sound knowledge (and intelligence).” The Noble Qur’aan: 30:22 Surely, it is Islam, which will help America achieve her most basic, righteous and lofty ideals to which all Americans should aspire. Amirate-America, from its inception as a viable entity, shall function as an Amirate along classical lines as close as circumstances permit. The “Political Apparatus” or “Machine” of Amirate-America shall be Amirate. All resident adult citizens, who are eligible to vote in general U.S. elections, shall be strongly encouraged to register as Independents, accepting the “Political Direction” of the Amir, who shall be counseled and guided not by his own caprice, but by his Majlis, consisting of an Ulama Council of true Islamic scholars (yet to be appointed) and other appointed advisors*. The members of the Majlis may, or may not, be Commissioners/Ministers responsible for running the day-to-day matters pertaining to the Public Welfare and Economic Stability of Amirate-America. All such personnel must have expertise in these areas of Public Trust. Additionally, Amirate-America shall have its own Political Analysts and Activists as “watchers” on State and Federal matters which may pertain to Amirate-America.

| *Qualification of the above
paragraph: For Islam and Muslims to prosper as an acceptable Political Force
in the United States, capable of achieving their Political Objectives (which
would benefit all Americans), they MUST constitute a “Political Block”.
Therefore, they must renounce the standard Political Choices of individually
declaring themselves “Republican” or “Democrat”, whereby they often accept
and vote for the candidate which is perceived as the “lesser of two evils”!
(Evil is never a choice for the God-Conscious Muslim.) There is a third
choice. And that is to independently solidify one’s individual vote with the
needs and aspirations of the group. Suratul-Fatihah carries this central
theme: Iy-yaaka Na`budu wa iy-yaka
Nasta`een (You we worship and You
we beg
for help); Ehdinaas-siratul-mustaqeem (Guide
us upon the Straight Path). In
governance sanctioned and enjoined by Allah, enacted by Prophet MuHammad and
followed by the Khulafaa’ Rashideen, we must acknowledge that the Straight
Path (of righteousness) guides us to Amirate, under an established leader,
spiraling upward toward a state of Khilaafah, which will be reinstalled by
Allah with the coming of the MaHdi and the return of Jesus (Peace be upon
him). At this time, as is now, there will be two groups of Muslims. There will be those who work to support Belief, and those who work to support Kufr (disbelief). Necessarily, all Muslims must make this choice for themselves and their families (future generations) beforehand! Clearly, NOW is the time. [" O you who have iman! Safeguard yourselves and your families from a Fire whose fuel is people and stones......." The Noble Qur'aan 66:6 (666!!!) This is the only means by which Muslims may legitimately participate in this U.S. Democratic process. “Individual participation”, toward seeking “collective authority” (for the Muslim grouping) is forbidden. Muslims must have a substantial Voting Block, which can be used to coerce political candidates to address Muslim concerns.
