Elections,Jamaat e Islami and future

The Results of Elections are out. And I have to say being an ideological supporter of JI that the election results were nothing but like a horrifying dream, Though I am one of those people who believes that real Islamic change cannot come through the current electoral system that we have in Pakistan specially after article 62-63 of the constitution was ridiculed rather than being implemented in letter and spirit but still me and most other supporters of JI were expecting JI to win at least 10 seats of National Assembly. but it only won 3 seats. though JI was robbed out in Karachi where its position is better than most other parts of the country, and top leadership of the party is also dominantly from Karachi but in rest of the country JI did not win any seat except 2 seats of Dir and 1 in Buner. which was shocking to say the least. Now Hopefully there will be re-elections in Karachi under the supervision of Army and impartial presiding officers and JI can improve upon its numbers in the National Assembly. And if re-elections don't take place in Karachi than it would be a big blow for JI. because young workers who worked very hard during a very good campaign may leave the party because of
disappointment. There is a lot to ponder about for JI leadership. After such a good and smooth preparation for the elections the results have been very bad for JI. The Islamic Movement which was founded by Syed Abu Ala Maudoodi has failed to confine its revolutionary ideological narrative with the traditional politics of Pakistan and that is why it has always come out as a fringe party after elections. JI deserves far more than 3 seats of National assembly even if we don't count Karachi. There is no party of its mould in the country the only literature based political party with its own think tanks,which has strongest and most disciplined organization throughout the country,most committed workers, largest welfare Network,largest women wing, largest student wing no corruption charges no candidates disqualified for fake degrees or any reason and last but not least the only party which has conduct intra-party elections ever since its inception on schedule and always had elected leadership, but despite these distinct qualities JI is lacking behind many other parties in elections. though I don't link JI's success with number of seats and victory in elections but if this system and elections are the means to bring about Islamic change which JI promises and we want it than JI has make to few reforms. next year probably in March tenure of Syed Munawar Hasan as Amir will end and there will be elections to elect Amir. Though Syed Munawar Hasan has led JI with sincerity but I think Now is the best time to elect a new,young and energetic Amir. Syed Munawar Hasan is over 70 years of Age. He can't lead JI for 5 more years. And after disappointing results in elections

JI needs a new and young leadership. JI has so many young educated workers in Shabab e Mili and in Islami Jamiat e Talaba. to mobilize them and motivate them to join JI and attract youth throughout the country JI needs young and active leadership,which can take JI forward with a new approach Otherwise this is not 1970 and results of these elections could have more bad effects on Jamaat e Islami than we can even think of

May Allah SWT bless Jamaat e Islami with bright future for supremacy of Islam. Ameen
