Bro let me reassure you of one thing... In Khilafat science and tech gets top priority... it is nt the case that Islam is some sort of a spiritual ideology (although our enemies would like us to think that)... Islam is a mix of matter and spirit and there are verses upon verses in the Quran that invite people to THINK and PONDER upon the world and the universe... This in itself constitute the whole of science i.e observation and experimentation...
The only thing that is holding us back is the enforced slavery of the west in our lands... when Pakistan can manage to build the A Bomb despite multiple problems facing it, it can do anything that others have done... trust me we can even go to the moon... but not when zardari is our chief... no way... the only direction we go down under his rule is DOWN in earth... in a grave...
You simply need the correct setup and mentality behind the mission... a zest for life and the love to taste death as Muslims...
btw Caliphs in the past used to take great interests in scientific work and scientists as you probably know were highly valued by the Islamic State...
Let the US deploy their forces yaar... More POWs for us to use as bargain chips maybe...
