Our Life is Messed Up because the Law of Allāh جل جلاله is Not Established
So Rasūlullāhصلى الله عليه وسلمis telling us a law that governs the life of men. If in a
particular society there is a double standard in applying justice where the
weak are punished while the strong are spared, Allāh جل جلاله will destroy
such a society. Nowadays, brothers and sisters, not only do we have a
double standard in applying the Law of Allāh, we do not have the Law
of Allāh altogether! So if Allāh would destroy a society and take away
the Barakah from such a society, take away the blessing from it just
because they have a double standard in applying the Law of Allāh, what
do you think will happen to us now because we do not have the Law of
Allāh altogether?
There is a Hadīth that says that applying one Hadd of
the Hudūd of Allāh – Hadd is the criminal law in Islām – applying one
Hadd is better than 40 days of rain. There is more blessing in applying
the Hudūd of Allāh than rain for 40 days. How much Barakah are we
missing now? And that is why our life is messed up. We have a lot of
resources, we have wealth, we have such a wide expanse of land – look
at how large the Muslim world is – but there is no Barakah in their life;
that is because we do not have the Hudūd of Allāh applied. And we
never tasted the blessing of living under an Islāmic system to compare;
you see, that is the problem. But for those who did experience Jāhiliyyah and Islām, [they would truly value living under the Islāmic system]. For
example, there was an old woman who ran into Abū Bakr As-Siddīq
when he was Khalīfah and she asked him, “How long will this affair
last?” She was talking about the great life that they were living in under
the Islāmic law. So she asked Abū Bakr, “How long will this affair last?”
Abū Bakr told her, “Mastaqāmat ‘Alaiÿ A'immatukum – As long as your
leaders follow it.” As long as the leaders are following Al-Haqq, you are
going to enjoy the blessings. And then this woman is a Bedouin, she
does not have any knowledge, so she asked Abū Bakr, “And who are
these A'immah?” Abū Bakr told her, “They are the leaders among you.”
So dear brothers and sisters, we should all make it an objective of ours to
try to establish the Law of Allāh جل جلاله on earth, to try to establish the
Islāmic system, to try to establish Khilāfah; this is a responsibility on
every Muslim, we want to live the blessing of the Islāmic system.

Ibn Abbas reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “A day of just leadership is better than sixty years of worship, and a legal limit properly established in the land is more pure for it than forty days of rain.”
