By Our Staff Reporter
KARACHI, Aug 25: Pledging to continue their struggle for restoration of Islamic Khilafat system, the Hizbul Tehrir announced on Friday that it will launch mass contact campaign in the forthcoming days to liberate Muslim countries from influence of western system.
Meanwhile, the month-long campaign of the Hizb-ul-Tehreer culminated on Friday urging the Muslims to get rid of secularism and capitalism.
During the campaign, seminars were organized in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad in which speakers highlighted the circumstances of Ummah during and after the period of Khilafat and pointed out that today Ummah was waiting for the enforcement of Islam and its unity which could only be attained through revival of Khilafat.
A spokesman for the Hizb, Shahzad Shaikh, while addressing a press conference at Karachi Press Club on Friday said that during the campaign, a delegation of Hizb called on the embassy of Turkey to present a memorandum about the need for reviving Khilafat in Turkey after giving up secularism, but the embassy official refused to receive the letter.
Mr Shaikh said the Hizb has written letters to the members of the parliament in Pakistan reminding them that after the debacle of the Khilafat, the Muslims were facing disintegration.
He claimed that the Hizb had distributed over 500,000 pamphlets and observed the day fall of Khilafat on Rajab 28 in various countries.
