Good post...
I think your fears about loses are not rational... If you think about it for a second, a combination of resources, manpower and economies actually benefit everyone... I wont give you the example of EU here because EU is not the same model as the Caliphate... but perhaps the reason why you are worried about clash between various regions is due to your mindframe of nationalism... There is no such thing as Nationailsm in Islam... The Caliphate is not going to prefer one nationality over another... rather people would be valued according to their talents etc... As for the issue of resources and distribution... I think in this aspect local regions would be preferred for distribution of the goods... So for example Afghanistan has tremendous untapped resources... does it mean that the Caliphate will leave Afghans poor and make Punjabis become rich... absolutely not... The best planning to distribute resources is to start with local regions... If Pakistan had a policy of developing different provinces together instead of focussing so much on Punjab or Sindh, today we would not have these insurgencies that we have like the BLA or illiterate TTP...
Regarding non Muslims... we have disagreements with those who think non Muslims would be second class citizens... I believe its one of those things we disagree with Dr israr Ahmed may Allah bless his soul... If history is proof of anything, it is that non Muslims preferred the IS rather than their own rulers... Palestine for example was liberated at the request of a Christian delegation which were sick and tired of Romans similarly when Jews were thrown out of Europe they found refuge in Ottoman lands... so yeah any worry about non Muslims is a misconception...
Hope that answers your questions... and dont pay attention to this beep beep loony tunes road runner character here...
Same for you alaka Ahmad Khana
A valued post indeed...It would definitely be a 'one of a kind' thing to reunite different pieces of land on the basis of religion.A single nation,unified economy,and unified agenda.Good for the people,and anything that is good for the people,where people can lead a happy,peaceful and prosperous life has my support.
Being speculative is basic human nature,and I am no exception.Its not EU that comes to my mind,its the erstwhile Soviet Union that comes to my mind.All united under a common umbrella called communism,a supposedly utopian state, a place where everybody has equal rights,all goodie goodie.Yet it crumbled under its own pressure.One of the main reasons was, there were too many different ethnicity and culture.Economic mismanagement was definitely there,but that comes as an added problem when you have one sixth of the entire landmass of the World to handle from a single center.
We can always talk in depth about the issues that may arise for governance.
looking at your points I can see,that you are advocating a single state,where the economy will benefit everyone.
My first question: Is the same not happening now? different countries may have trade relations and hence share the economic benefit.It is any day easier to create good trade relations,isnt it?
My second question:Even if we go for a unified nation,unified economy,we can still do that EU style.What Islam has got to do anything with it??
