After being released in 1920, he returned to Hindustan. Once speaking at a big gathering of `Ulama, he said, We learnt two lessons from our life in Malta. These words made the whole audience attentive, as they wanted to know what the 80-year-old sage was going to say. In the loneliness of jail in Malta, I pondered over the causes of Muslims ruination both religiously and temporally, I found out two causes: One, forsaking the Quran. Two, internal differences and discords. From the jail, I have come with a resolve that I would spend the rest of my live in promoting the Quran and its meaning.

The Khilafat Movement was started to save the Ummah from falling into internal differences and discord. The differences were there since the earlier times but the Muslims were not divided.

The situation has changed Post Collapse of the Khilafah. Now, the Ummah is so divided it is extremely difficult to unite it under a single Khalifah. Until, the Ummah chooses a Khalifah unanimously, things will grow worser day by day.

Nationalism is a secularist idea.

No wonder, look at what his student, Hazrath Maulana Ilyasji ra has said:

"Replying to the question raised, viz. "why are Muslims not granted rulership and leadership in the world?" he replied: "when we do not fulfil the commandments of Allah and refrain from the forbidden in our personal lives over which we have full control and there is no obstacle or compulsion, then how is it possible that we be entrusted with the governing of this world. It is only through the decision of Allah that the believers may be granted government on the earth so that they may seek his pleasure and establish his laws in this world. Now, when we are not doing this in the sphere of our own choice (in our individual lives), how can it be
expected, when tomorrow we are given the reins of government, we shall do so?"

- No.10 from his malfuzaat.
