President Musharraf wins election as new Islamic ruler

President Pervaiz Musharraf won a landslide victory in elections in Pakistan today and will become the democratically elected head of the Islamic State of Pakistan.

In recent years there has been a suggestion by some that Pervaiz Musharraf is an unelected dictator, even though the Ulema of Pakistan, following the classical scholarly opinions, have said that he is the Ameer al-Muminin and is the legitimate ruler of Pakistan.

Pervaiz Musharraf has all the hallmarks of the true Islamic leader - he has fought the Wahabbi Islamists in Afghanistan and Waziristan and has cooperated with the People of the Book of the USA in helping them to defeat the terrorists. Only a true Islamic leader would do this. He also ordered the brave attack on the Lal Masjid which was the centre of terrorism. If the people in the Lal Masjid came to power they may kill millions, so they must be killed first.

Today is a historic day - the people of Pakistan have spoken and given Musharraf their resounding support. As the Mufti of Egypt has said, "Muslims are free to choose whichever system of government they deem most appropriate for them". General Musharraf is a Muslim and he has chosen this system of government that he deems to be appropriate. Therefore he has a Shubha Daleel.
