Description
“Tehreek-e-Islami ka Ayanda Laiha-e-Amal” serves as a foundational policy document for the Islamic movement, specifically addressing the challenges faced after the creation of Pakistan. The book is based on a detailed resolution and an explanatory speech provided by Maulana Maududi during a critical juncture in the movement’s history.
The content is structured to provide both ideological clarity and practical guidance:
-
Strategic Objectives: It defines the fundamental goals of the movement and the specific methods required to achieve them in a modern state.
-
Four-Point Program: The book introduces a comprehensive plan for social reform, intellectual development, and public character building.
-
Constitutional Struggle: Maulana Maududi emphasizes the necessity of demanding an Islamic constitution and engaging in peaceful, democratic processes.
-
Historical Evolution: It tracks the movement’s journey from its inception in 1941 (and the intellectual groundwork laid since 1928) through the shifting political landscape of post-partition Pakistan.
-
Political Engagement: A significant portion of the book justifies the movement’s participation in elections as a means to bring about a change in leadership and ensure the implementation of Islamic values at the state level.
