“The Islamic penal code is absent and is replaced with that of the European countries. The economic system of Islam has been replaced by that of the Capitalists and today the resources of the Muslim Ummah are the spoils that are distributed by the Kuffar. The Islamic lands are occupied despite the military capacities of the Muslim armies. The absence of the Islamic way of life in our countries is ever affecting the societal fabric with nightclubs and bars arising in the holy lands of al-Quds, as well as many other major cities and capitals in the Islamic world.”“The Re-establishment of the Khilafah is an obligation upon all Muslims,” Hizb ut-Tahrir America, accessed June 10, 2015, https://hizb-america.org/the-re-establishment-of-the-khilafah-is-an-obligation-upon-all-muslims/.
