Does it mean that girls must not be educated, men must compulsorily wear beards, that Babar & CD shops must be blown up and that women must be veiled up from top to toe. Is this the Islam they wish to introduce in the name of Sharia? Have they read the Quran with meaning and Tafseel (commentry)? I would recommend to these people that you cannot introduce Islam by force (see Sura Baqara verse 256) wherein it's said, "there is no compulsion in religion.' In the Quran God has said that if he so wished he could have forced all men into Islam (and God could have done it without needing the help of these taliban) but why he did not do so was because He had a greater Plan for man.He sent them down to this earth to seek God's ways through his prophets. Those who followed would go to heaven and those who failed to do so would be sent to hell. Every man is answerable for himself - yes preach God's ways in mosques and at the pulpit, beyond that God tells His own Prophet not to grieve if they do not follow your preaching because God says, I've sent you only to convey My message. So Saad, I would be most indebted to you if you could devote one part of your write-up on "Nifaz-e-Sharia. Thank you.

Where the governments fail, the people must step in to work in consonance with the authorities to help assuage the hurt suffered by the people at large and to apply balm over their distresses. Physical help, infrastructural help, consistent empathy with their situation, and a clear discrimination between the lawful and lawless acts/demands/pronounced assertions by the rebellious should make for a determined and visibly fair action which will allow progress towards healing and peace.
