Explanatory Memorandum

The Republican Party is a call for a new civilization that succeeds the current materialistic Western civilization, which has declared its bankruptcy with the language of iron and fire in devastating wars that have destroyed resources and claimed lives. These wars ceased only after embedding deep-seated grudges that render peace merely a preparation for more ferocious and incendiary conflicts in the future.
The social philosophy underlying this new civilization is a democratic socialism that harmoniously reconciles spiritual values with the realities of material existence. This philosophy avoids both the neglect of Western materialism, which confines human endeavor to the demands of the stomach and the body, and the excess of Eastern spiritualism, which disparages all efforts aimed at improving material existence among living beings.
The vanguard of this new civilization comprises the People of the Quran, whom Allah described as: "And thus We have made you a middle nation" (2:143) - a nation balanced between the neglect of Western materialism and the excess of Eastern spiritualism.
The constitution of this new civilization is the Quran, which offers a solution to the historical dilemma that has perplexed philosophers: the reconciliation of the individual's need for absolute personal freedom with the community's need for comprehensive social justice.
The hallmark of this new civilization is its humanism. It views the human family as a single unit and considers human nature universal, regardless of location. It holds that freedom and prosperity are sacred natural rights for people of all colors - black, white, red, and yellow.
The Republican Party will begin by organizing its own house, with Sudan - within its full geographical boundaries as they stood in 1934 - being its immediate focus. This new civilization must first be implemented within Sudan before attracting the attention of a weary humanity lost in aimlessness.
The first step toward its implementation is the revival of "La ilaha illa Allah" (There is no god but Allah), making it as creative in the hearts of men and women today as it was in the past. This revival will be achieved by inviting people to emulate Muhammad. Through emulating him, two outcomes are realized:
1. The unification of the nation, after sectarianism has fragmented it.
2. The renewal of religion.
The renewal of religion elevates moral character and purifies thought. This intellectual revolution is the only path to creating a will for change and properly guiding that will toward righteous governance. Righteous governance stands on three pillars: economic equality, political equality, and social equality. Such governance enables the creation of free individuals - those who think as they wish, speak as they think, and act as they speak, ensuring that their words and deeds yield nothing but goodness and kindness toward people and things.
