Highlighting the struggles of over 100 million Pakistanis living in poverty, Hafiz Naeem criticized the ruling class for its luxurious lifestyle. He called for unity among Pakistanis, emphasizing the need for a system based on the Quran and Hadith to ensure prosperity and justice.

Reiterating Jamaat-e-Islami’s commitment to an Islamic system, Hafiz Naeem argued that it was the only solution to Pakistan’s economic and social challenges. He also criticized the nation’s elite, saying, “While the people suffer, the ruling class continues its extravagance.”
