The Islamic Emirate Of Afghanistan And I ts SuccessfulAdministrative Policy

It is patently clear from the experiences of those who preceded us and firmly established

from our own observations that the success of Islamic

governments, as well as democratic and despotic governments,

and the prosperity of religious; educational; governmental and

other establishments lies in the superiority of its administrative

regime in heeding its important elements (lofty aims, the abilities

of its leader, having a righteous entourage around him, etc.).

Complete victory in this field requires diligent efforts from those heading it to implement

decisions issued; established regulations and fixed principles. Attention must also be paidto the impartiality of the administration through the good selection of personnel who are

recruited to work there.

I do not intend to list the components of successful administration or to declare the

characteristics of an Islamic Administration. What concerns me here is to shed light on the

Islamic Emirates policy in the realm of administration and coordination despite the difficult

circumstances surrounding it connected to its heavy involvement in the Holy Jihad and the

bitter war against the Americans and their partners in their repulsive crimes. I also strive to

place before you, as Allah enables me, simple information regarding the order of the Islamic

Emirate or the Taliban regime, as they say, so that perhaps it will benefit the readers of

our heroic magazineal-Somoodto hea l t he b reas t s o f t he Be l i eve rs and Nor i s that

f o r A l l ah any g rea t ma t t e r .

The loftiness of the desired objective and the sanctity of the anticipated goal - combined

with the firm anchoring of this sanctity within those who belong to this administration after

they are made fully aware of it - are together a strong factor in successfully achieving the

declared and sought-after goal. It is also the secret behind reviving the spirit of altruism,

dedication and sacrifice in the spirit of the staff (members). When they are convinced of the

importance of their jobs they will compete in rushing to complete their assigned tasks and

exert the utmost of their efforts for the sake of achieving the highest objective and sacred

goal, because they will see the laudable results and great benefits behind their activities

and above the ceiling of their own invaluable works. As Allah Almighty says in this regard:

They a re t hose w ho , i f W e es t ab l i sh t hem i n t h i s l and , es t ab l ish regu l a r p r aye r and

g i ve regu l a r cha r i t y , en j o i n t he r i gh t and f o rb i d w rong : w i t h A l l ah rest s t he end (and

dec is ion) o f a l l a f fa i rs .(al-Hajj: 41).

Moreover, concern must be paid to attracting trustworthy and competent persons, and

choosing specialized cadre; contingent upon piety and impartiality. Specialization without

piety corrupts an administration and piety without competence weakens it. In the event ofa contradiction, the pious one is given preference, because he is like the shepherd whose

legs are tied and is unable to benefit the flock or serve the people. But the corrupt one is a

ravenous wolf spoiling the earth and harming others. Preventing damage takes priority

among wise men and in any event the selection of righteous people is a strong element of

successful administration. This is in accordance with the words of the Almighty: Al lah doth

c o m m a n d y o u t o r e n d e r b a ck y o u r T r u s t s t o t h o s e t o w h o m t h e y a r e d u e (al-Nisa:

58)and Ver i l y t he mos t honor ed o f you i n t he s igh t o f A l l ah is (he wh o i s ) t he mos t

r i gh t eous o f you .(al-Hujurat: 13).

The capacity of the personality of the leader who directs the people religiously, politically

and ideologically is no less important than any of the above. Indeed, it is considered one of

the most important elements of successful administration. The leader is the axis around

which matters pivot. He employs the community to achieve his goals and directs people to

goodness and happiness. He warns them against evil and danger according to his lights.Among the duties of the leader after trust in and reliance upon his Lord and Creator is

to make a diligent effort in directing the activities of a ll the employees and volunteers who

assist him in an atmosphere of cooperation towards the fixed goal. He is also

responsible for creating strong feelings among the people to move quiet hearts and

slumbering eyes, and energize the human power for self-sacrifice for the sake of achieving

high and lofty goals. It is notable that among the qualities of the successful leader are that

he is free; male; of sound mind and emotion; with knowledge; vision; strength; courage;

wisdom; organizational skills and other qualities mentioned in the books offiqh and 'aqidah.

So seek it where you would expect to find it.

1. After this pleasant introduction, I take you to the subject of this study by saying: In its

entire organization, the Islamic Emirate relies on the Book of Allah Almighty and upon the

Sunnah of his Messenger (SAW), the Sunnah of the rightly guided Caliphs and the sayings

of the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them all. It utilizes the fatwas of the

followers and the opinions ofmujtahid scholars, may Allah Almighty have mercy on them.

The Emirate borrows from the history of bygone nations and its system consists of the

components of a successful administration balanced with the sanctity of its goals, the vision

of its leader, and the strength of its faith and the qualifications of its workers with regards

to piety; devotion; trust; competence, etc.

2. Based on this, the Administrative System of the Islamic Emirate is based upon the

principles of the Islamic Caliphate from the era of the rightly guided Caliphs, may Allah be

pleased with them, in dividing the country into provinces, appointing pious and righteous

governors, guiding workers to piety and justice, encouraging the establishment of a

religious and worldly policy, tending to the needs of the people, instructing them in matters

of religion and encouraging them to make the utmost effort in promoting virtue and

preventing vice. Regulations have been drawn up for the guidance of the Mujahideen fi

sabeel Allah. Messages are constantly sent for this purpose to guide them; direct their

deeds; illuminate their thoughts and have them follow in the footsteps of the Companions,

may Allah be pleased with them. Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, spoke

to the people thus, saying O people, by Allah I do not send you governors to flog you or take

your wealth but I send them to teach you your Religion and the way you should follow

(sunnah). If anything other than this is done to anyone, he should refer the matter to me. By

Him in whose hand is Umars soul, I will provide justice for him. (History of Islam/Dr. HasanIbrahim/part 1, page 455).

Uthman ibn Affan, may Allah be pleased with him, wrote to his governors in the provinces,

saying: Allah has decreed the imams to be shepherds, he did not ask them to be tax

collectors. When this Ummah emerged, they were created as shepherds; they were not created

as tax collectors. Your imams are on the verge of becoming tax collectors and not shepherds. If

that happens, diffidence, fidelity and loyalty will be torn apart. The best course is to look to the

affairs of Muslims and what is requested of them. Give to them what is their due and take from

them what you ought. (Previous reference/part 1/page 455).

3. The area of our Muslim country of Afghanistan is approximately 650,000 square

kilometers with an estimated population of at least 33 million people. The country is divided

into 34 administrative units, each named a province such as Qandahar, Helmand, Herat and

Balkh province. Moreover, each province is divided into multiple directorates, big and small

such as Marjah in Helmand province, Arghandab in Qandahar province, etc. Each directorate

contains beautiful areas and numerous villages. There are a total of 400 provinces, while

there are tens of thousands of villages.

4. In each village, there is a faithful leader (appointed) by the Emirate and who is

responsible for civilian and military affairs. He has around him from 10 to 50 Mujahideen

depending on the prevailing circumstances. A new leader is selected from among them if

the previous leader is martyred or is unable to continue to lead for any reason. In case of a

disagreement, the matter is elevated to the amirs above them. This battalion called a

front is ready for combat and to fight against the enemy night and day. They are also

recourse to which people raise their complaints, whether among themselves or between

them and other villages. If the problems are small, they are referred to notables of the tribe

for resolution. If the problems are big, then they are elevated to the senior officials in the

directorate for a decision to be made in accordance with pure Shariah law.

5. Each directorate has a Governor of known piety among the people. He has a deputy with

experience in affairs of the region. Under their command work different committees such as:

Committee for Arbitration and Settling Disputes; Committee for Education and

Development; a Military Commission to manage war issues, etc. The Governor is the

commander of the whole village and area leaders in that directorate, and he is responsible

for the application of Allahs Shariah there. The appointment and dismissal of the Governor

is in the hands of the Supreme Command after consultation with the provincial Governor

and the province-level Military Committee. He works under the command of the provincial

Governor and is directly responsible for the directorate.

6. Each province of the country is an independent unit with a commander called the

Governor. He has a deputy to assist him. The Governor is directly responsible for the

Supreme Command of that province and directs its military, civilian, financial and legal

affairs. Usually this important post is entrusted to an experienced and capable man; a manof Religion and morality who fears no one in Allah. He is a true and trustworthy, and

capable of directing matters. Among his duties is application of Shariah laws and statutes;

supervision of directorate governors; execution of the war plan; supervision of financial

resources and expenditures. Committees with appropriate authorities work with him on the

province level, including legal, military and financial committees; an education committee,

etc. The appointment and dismissal of the Governor is the responsibility of the Supreme

Commander after consultation with the High Shura Council.

7. Above that is the role of the Main Committees with authority at the level of the Islamic

Emirate. Each Committee is composed of a number of trustworthy and loyal persons with

experience in their assigned occupation. In the current structure of the Emirate, these

replace as circumstances dictate the old Ministries. They are as follows:

A.The Military Committee: This is equivalent of the Ministry of Defense and coordinates

military affairs, including preparing young men for sacred Jihad; arming the Mujahideen with

weapons, ammunition and equipment; preparing war plans; issuing orders for battles and

attacks on enemy bases, dens of lackeys, etc.

B.Preaching and Guidance Committee: This is composed of the senior scholars and issues

fatwas on important matters offiqh. It also appoints and employs scholars and preachers

and provides guidance to the Mujahideen and citizens and gives advice to the commanders

and officials.

C.Ministry of Culture and Information: It broadcasts statements of the Amir-ul-Momineen,

may Allah Almighty protect him, as well as the decisions of the Supreme Command, the

judgments, statements and decisions of the High Shura Council, and publishes magazines

and newspapers in different languages. It publishes news of the Mujahideen and their

conquests and refutes the claims of the charlatan enemy; revealing his conspiracies and

plots; and refuting his propaganda via important websites on the internet.

D.The Political Committee: This is equivalent to the Foreign Ministry and is responsible for

foreign relations. It makes great efforts to build, expand and develop foreign relations.

E.Education Committee: This committee builds different kinds of schools, and prepares aneducational curriculum and selects well known leaders from the provinces and appoints

teachers and the administrative apparatus for the schools; all for the purpose of spreading

Islamic and contemporary learning; obliterating illiteracy and fighting ignorance in society

and educating the developing generation.

F.Financial Committee: This undertakes the development of financial resources for the

Emirate, organizes the Expenditures Diwan; monitors banks, etc.

G.Committee for Prisoners and Orphans: This is concerned with affairs of prisoners and

orphans; it works strenuously for the release of the prisoners, and to raise their children

and the children of the martyrs and helps with the living expenses of their families.

H. Health Committee: This is concerned with treating the wounded and sick Mujahideen,

and helps them with their living expenses. It also works to prepare comfortable quarters

for them during their convalescence.

I. Committee for Foreign Establishments: This directs them to affected areas and

supervises their work and their men up close to ensure that they are not carrying out

works that negatively impact our 'aqidah.

8. High Shura Council: This is composed of high-ranking men in the Islamic Emirate. The

appointment and removal of its members is carried out by the Amir-ul-Momineen. The duties

assigned to the Council include monitoring the situation in Afghanistan; searching for

suitable solutions for internal and external problems; guiding the Main Committees at the

level of the Islamic Emirate in their work; and issuing statements on international, regional,

and internal occasions and drafting regulations and laws in accordance with the Book and

the Sunnah.

9. The Supreme Command represented by the Supreme Leader; the Amir-ul-Momineen

Mullah Mohammad Omar (Mujahid), may Allah Almighty protect him, who is the direct leader

of the Holy Jihad. He is the primary caretaker for all of Afghanistans military and civilian

affairs and, in his capacity as Supreme Leader of the Mujahideen and Amir-ul-Momineen, he

is zealous in the application of Allahs Shariah, starting with himself; his household; his

family; soldiers and followers; reporting to his flock and all Muslims in the world as is made

patently clear in his sermons and speeches. He strives following those pious leaders who

preceded him to rule with justice by assigning positions to trustworthy people; carefully

selecting his entourage; and choosing the loyal and righteous to accompany him. He closely

monitors the actions of his men in high positions and advises them to be pious before Allah

in public and private, give their people their rights and avoid causing them any harm.

10. His two trusted deputies act to aid him with devotion and piety. They are his helpers in

rolling out the carpet of Allahs heavenly Shariah upon the land of the country. They carry

out the experienced leaders decisions with all faithfulness and honesty without adding or

subtracting anything. They are responsible for keeping pace with matters of Jihad and

putting the responsible agencies in action. They are also responsible for convening the High

Shura Council and consultative councils and organizing all affairs of the Islamic Emirate.

The Last Word

4/4

The strong faith of the Leader of the Islamic Emirate in Allah the All-Wise and All-Powerful;

in the sanctity of his goal; and its deep roots in the hearts of his workers; and the

impartiality of the administration in selecting righteous men is a symbol of heroism; and the

secret of the success of the Holy Jihad in the country. This is especially represented in the

faith of the heroic leader Mullah Mohammad Omar (Mujahid), may Allah give him victory over

his enemies, when he said No, No to occupation, relying instead upon Allah Almighty and

Omnipotent, despite of the greed of the infidels and their attacks upon the defenseless

people. Rather he ordered Jihad against them to defend the Religion and honor, uttering

the words of his predecessors: Al lah i s suf f i c ient fo r us; He is the best d isposer o f

a f fa i rs .

There is no doubt that the Mujahideen are the helpers of Allah. If a Mujahid is not a

supporter of Allah, then who is? This is especially true in our modern age when they are led

by noble scholars and seekers of Shariah knowledge and the righteous from among Allah s

servants. As for the desired goal and objective of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan it is to

elevate the word of Allah Almighty and establish an Islamic government by every meaning

of the word, and to expel the enemies of Allah; the Americans, from the country. It is for

Allah to humble to the depths the word of those who are infidels, to justify the truth and

prove falsehood false. It is for Allah to give honor to the holy Jihad, Islam and the Muslims

and to humiliate idolatry and the idolaters.

And f o r t h i s , l e t t hose asp i re w ho have asp i ra t i ons .
