Could Yemen be the Next Surprise of the Season?

The
jihad movement around the world has witnessed a surprising growth
during the past few years. After 9-11 America had succeeded in pulling
together an international coalition in order to fight the mujahedeen.
It invaded Afghanistan and Iraq, put pressure on governments around the
world to throw anyone with association with Jihad behind bars and to
stop the flow of money into Jihad movements. All over the world the
mujahedeen have suffered an international effort under the leadership
of America to bring an end to Jihad. But Eight years later the
mujahedeen are wining on every front and are expanding into new ones.
It appeared difficult back then to imagine that the world would be the
way it is today just 8 years after 9-11.
That is because Rasulullah(saaws) said: “A group of my ummah will
continue fighting in the path of Allah and they will not be harmed by
those who are against them.”
The American people gave G.W. Bush unanimous backing to fight against
the mujahedeen and gave him a blank check to spend as much as needed to
fulfill that objective. The result? He failed, and he failed miserably.
So if America failed to defeat the mujahedeen when it gave its
president unlimited support, how can it win with Obama who is on a
short leash? If America failed to win when it was at its pinnacle of
economic strength, how can it win today with a recession – if not a
depression- at hand?
The simple answer is: America cannot and will not win. The tables have
turned and there is no rolling back of the worldwide Jihad movement.
The ideas of Jihad are proliferating around the world, the mujahedeen
movements are gaining strength and the battlefields are expanding with
the mujahedeen introducing new fronts.
In Afghanistan the rural areas are mostly under the control of the
Taliban and there is a steady improvement in the growth and strength of
the mujahedeen. In Iraq even though the US claims an improvement in the
security situation but one needs to ask the question at what cost is
that achieved? The amount of money America is spending on Iraq with a
recession at hand is unattainable.
The Jihad of this era started in Palestine, followed by Afghanistan,
then Chechnya, then Iraq, then Somalia, then the Maghreb, and the new
front might very well turn out to be Yemen.
And when this new front of Jihad starts in Yemen it might become the single most important front of Jihad in the world.
Why? First, the Arabian Peninsula has always been a land of mujahedeen
even though there has been no fighting occurring on its soil. In
Afghanistan, Bosnia, Chechnya, and Iraq the participation of mujahedeen
from the Arabian Peninsula represented the largest block of foreign
mujahedeen. When Jihad starts in the Arabian Peninsula, Jihad would be
coming back to its home.
Second, he Arabian Peninsula is home to Makkah and Madinah. To free the
Holy places from the rule of apostasy and tyranny is to free the heart
of Islam.
Third, the rulers in the Arabian Peninsula are playing a central role
in the fight against Islam especially the al Saud family. The al Saud
of today are the Abdullah bin Ubay of yesterday. They have perfected
the art of hypocrisy. They fight Islam in the name of Islam. They
wear cloaks of sheep on hearts of wolfs. There cannot be Islamic rule
and a return to khilafah without removing them from existence and this
is the responsibility of the mujahedeen of the Arabian Peninsula.
America and its allies in the area are plotting against the mujahedeen,
nevertheless their growth increases by the day. May Allah grant the
true believers victory and grant them steadfastness on His path.
Their intention is to extinguish the light of Allah with their mouths,
but Allah will complete His light even thought the disbelievers may
detest it. (al Saff 61)

Good to see you are back sheikh i pray that you and your famliy are safe, can you please write a article on whats happening in somalia please sheikh bcos people are starting to talk so much rubbish about the mujahideen there.
As-Salaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatu
Dear Brother Anwar,
May Allah (subhannah wa t’ala) reward you for your efforts to enlighten our youth to the need for Jihad fisabillilah. I came across an article that shows the need for Muslims to fight back in every part of the globe. This article is about the opposition leader in SE Asia, who claims to be a Muslim. Please read how he defends himself as a Muslim, because he prays, fasts, and avoids alcohol; only to then claim Islam can “curtail human rights and discriminate against women”.
http://news.my.msn.com/regional/article.aspx?cp-documentid=3626804
Another Muslim…that hates his religion and wants a democracy.
It’s happening all over the globe, brother. Keep up the good fight! It won’t be much longer until we will have victory against the munafiqin, inshaAllah.
May Allah (subhannah wa t’ala) make you a light and protect all the Mujahideen.
-Rashad (slave of Allah)
Assalaamu alaikum
ALLAHU AKBAR! Very good to see Imamul Ummah back. Very good to see the Shaykh supporting the Mujahideen in his homeland. Usually, peopl would support all Mujahideen except the Mujahideen in their homeland.ALLAHU AKBAR!
Thank you shaykh for your thoughts. Unfortunately the muslims in the west are being misguided about the gehad by those at Al maghrib institute.
Are you able to reach out to them? Or can u plz tell us how to deal with them?
People like Alshareef and Basyouni have sold out the mujahideen for “dawah” and political correctness. They refuse to make their Wala and Bara clear.
Plz help dear Shaykh! I cant take them on alone. They use their knowledge to cloak their nifaq and consider my position incorrect because i lack their level of education. Maybe some naseeha or harsh words if necessary from you will wake them up. inshaallah.
Well, a lot of fugitive Arabs, having run away to Pakistan from defeated jihads elsewhere, will soon want to run away from Pakistan too, and it is possible that Yemen or Somalia will be sufficiently lawless and unprincipled to take them in.
Assalaamu alaikum Dear brother Anwar
JazakAllah Khair for taking time out and writing to us.
Your words are as always very inspiring and enlightening.
May Allah reward you for all your efforts and give you success in this world and in the hereafter. Ameen.
Yemen the “New Big Magnet” for al Qaeda
Hundreds of hardcore Arab fighters loyal to al Qaeda have fled the Afghanistan-Pakistan region this year, heading mainly to Yemen to bolster an Islamist insurgency targeting oil-rich Saudi Arabia, according to Arab, Pakistani and Western officials who spoke to CBS News.
The implications of such a buildup in Yemen are profound not only for the stability of Saudi Arabia — the birthplace of Islam and home to the holiest of Islamic shrines — but for the world’s dependence upon a continued flow of petroleum from the largest known oil reserves.
For years, Western intelligence officials have believed that Osama bin Laden would eventually aim to destabilize Saudi Arabia, his own birth place. Bin Laden traveled to Afghanistan in the 1980s to join the U.S.-led and Saudi-supported “jihad” (or holy war) against the Soviet occupation. While Soviet troops withdrew in 1989, large numbers of Arab volunteer fighters remained in Afghanistan.
“The trend is very, very clear,” one Western diplomat based in Islamabad told CBS News on condition of anonymity. “There is no question about Arab members of al Qaeda increasingly seeking ways to travel to Yemen.
“Some have been arrested along this route,” said the official, who refused to name the countries in which arrests have taken place, or the number of people arrested.
A senior Pakistani official who spoke to CBS News confirmed that Arab militants linked to al Qaeda were heading to Yemen in growing numbers. The Pakistani official claimed the militants had traveled to Yemen via Iran, using remote locations along the southern Iranian coast to discretely board fishing vessels.
However, the Western diplomat said it was not possible to establish a single route taken by the militants. “It is impossible to say if these people made their transit in Iran or just traveled out of Pakistan to another country first before reaching Yemen, or may have found ways to sail straight to Yemen” he said.
An Arab diplomat who also spoke to CBS News said he believed that between 800 to 1,200 Arab militants have left the Afghanistan-Pakistan region in the past year, mainly with Yemen as their destination.
“Yemen is the final destination. These days, there are many in the intelligence community who believe Yemen has become the new big magnet for these people,” said the diplomat.
The revelation of militants transiting to Yemen, with the likely intention of trying to destabilize Saudi Arabia, follows last month’s attack on Prince Muhammad bin Nayef, the Saudi deputy interior minister, who has led his kingdom’s efforts against terrorists.
The prince survived the attack, but Western officials familiar with al Qaeda’s activities in the Arab world warned that the incident only underlined the growing determination of militants to undermine the country, in an apparent attempt to disrupt global oil distribution.

Brother Bilal,
I totally agree with what you’ve said about the Al Magrib institute brothers.
They baffle us with their knowledge which is taken out of context so the onus is on us to learn the correct knowledge and refute them insha’Allah.

Paki Army beating innocent paki. may Allah give worst punishment to this army in this world and in hereafter. and this video has been shown again n again on indian news channel and it was boling my blood this paki i dont think this people part of Ahl As-Sunnah Wal-Jama’ah and more shocking thing is this wild animals even beating old Men. Paki bros should come out race there voice we should never divide into Punjabi, Sindhi, Pashtun (Pathan), Baloch, Muhajir(Urdu) We are Muslim 1st and do something about it. My suggestion is to chop ther heads.
Qadianis had meeting in diffrent big cities in India when they came to my city Muslims from my city kicked this kuffar out and they had cancel they meeting.
And this Happen only because Allah Jamats came together for this issue
As-Salaamu ‘Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
Alhamdulillah for this progress Allah (swt) has been giving the Ummah. Inshallah we will see you Shaykh in some pictures or videos holding a gun heading towards the fields of Jihad.
To my mujahideen brothers who read this forum, please make du’a for us that Allah (swt) provides us a way to join you guys so that we don’t miss out on all the ajr and honor which shall come from this inshallah.
Remember, the road to victory still has a ways to go and after that we may be hit with the biggest fitan of history. So continue to increase your eman and increase your effects, each one of us will need a full tank of eman for what’s comming up.
“Our Lord! Bestow on us endurance, make our foothold sure, and give us help against the disbelieving folk.” (2:250)
ASA to all,
Considering the quagmire that is unfolding in Afghanistan has led the coalition of evil to resort to resuming talks with Russian in an effort to combat the growing threat of “terror” despite their clear political and ideological differences. For more info, visite carnegieendowment.org and check out the speech delivered by the Secretary General of NATO entitled : RUSSIA and NATO-A New Beginning. Also, check out what analysts are making of the current events in Yemen. It’s hand in hand with the sheikh’s assertion. It also sheds light on the incredible amount of time and effort the enemies spend plotting, planning, researching, and trying to put out the light of Islam, but to no avail. Victory is for Allah, his religion, and his servants. We ask Allah (AWJ) to make us among those who may participate hands on in granted Nasr to this deen. AMIN!!
assalamu alaikum shaykh
good to have you back, May Allah bless you.
May Allah break the back of the americans, their allies and the munafiqun.

Assalamualaikum Beloved Sheikh,

Assalam aleikum dear sheikh! jazaakumullah khairal jazaa yaa sheikh for this post. You always hiting to the point…to the heart, boosting our iman and make us get up obey Allah and stay away from his prohibition.
To brother Bilal…what you saying its true about these shuyukh like Basyouni and them, they spread false ideas and diseases to corrupt hearts of muslims in the west. If they would just understand the concept of “walaa and baraa” they wouldnt take the stance they stand. May Allay make our way to join our brothers easy and increases our hearts with imaan to be able to endure to the maximum patience at the time of fitna and trials so that we can be forgiven our sins and be successful in the hereafter…We ask Allah to reward our shuyukhs the best reward…May Allah make muslims see Haqq as Haqq and Batil as Batil..Ameen!
Assalaam mu alaikum warahmatoellah
Allah Hu Akbar! a beautiful article! Mashaa Allah, may Allah reward you for your efforts Imaam!.May Allah protect us all! May Allah Guide us all and may Allah unite our divided Ummah and may Allah end the forbidden monarchy of Al saud AMEEN!
Another ally in the so called war on terror.
The communist apparatchik of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev had a meeting with war criminal Sarkozy and offered transit facilities to French forces on their way to Afghanistan. This comes on heels of increasingly devastating attacks on NATO supply lines south of Afghanistan.
http://www.upi.com/Security_Industry/2009/10/06/Kazakhs-allow-French-arms-transit/UPI-37451254864892/
Iran looks like another ally too. Don’t forget Iran facilitated initial invasion that made the war criminals occupy Afghanistan that was already reeling under brutal Soviet occupation, that had bombed the country to rubble. Rather than helping poor Afghans repel US and NATO invasion, they sided with oppressors. They are more like a banana republic than a so called “islamic” republic.

@Ibn Ali, there is a lecture by Shaykh Feiz Muhammad which is the recording of a course about Kitab al-Tawheed. You can get it here: http://www.alghurabaa.org/lectures/feiz-muhammad/
Only problem is the quality, but inShaAllah you can get used to it.
I haven’t listened to most of the lectures, but I trust this shaykh, because he has proper Islamic study experience, and he’s not a sellout like others.
That is the only quality I can find, but if you run across a better one (because I’ve seen clips on YouTube of much much better quality, but can’t find the full set anywhere with that quality) please let me know akhee
Salaam..
Ibn Ali – there is a good video series by Shaykh Feiz on explaination of Kitaab al Tawheed. I would recommend it.
May Allah(swt) guide us all..
asalammu alaikum
@al-suyuufi
explaination of Kitaab al Tawheed by Shaykh Feiz in video
http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=paradisewoodSHFEIZ&view=playlists
As Salaam Alaykum,
First of all i would like to thank you for such beautiful lectures,I dont think i have left any, I listened to them again and again.
Now about Pakistan Army, Akhi if you look into details .,.. what those militants did in swat valley .. there is NO way a Muslim could do that. They slaughtered poor police non-commision officers who gets paid 6000 to 9 000 per month(Pakistan rupees).I dont think as a mujahid i would slaughter a muslim brother just because he is in the police force.
Those militants kidnapped young girls (Kidnapped in like picked them up forcely) by saying OUR mujahids need women. They do not offer the salah, according to them they dont have to offer salah as they are in Jihad.
Mullah Mohammad Umar (The True Mujahid) that soldier of Allah declared (announced) Afghan Talibans have nothing to do with Pakistani So called mujahids (Who call themselves talibans too) and Dadaullah .. Who got killed by the afghani talibans not by americans, These cowards cant do anything to soldiers of Allah .. but to pay so called muslims and use them against the muslims.
Now I understand Pakistan is not really a Islamic Country. It is so called ISlamic. They do not follow the Shariah.
If you ask me I will fight against anyone who is harming a Muslim. I used word harming.
IF they were just asking people to follow the shariah or making to follow thew shariah law i would be okay with it.
Allahu Alam.
May Allah make me one of the shuhadah. Ameen
May Allah give death to all the enemies of Islam as well as so called Muslims who are harming the Ummah of our beloved prophet Mohammad (saw- Peace be upon him) Ameen.
Please Kep sending out emails. May Allah unite this ummah ameen.
what do u expect from Kafirs, Munafiqs and mushriks??
You expect them to be like that.
They have no Fear of Allah as Allah has sealed their hearts and they will not be guided.
This makes me sik and my blood boil..
May Allah protect the mumineen everywhere
Jazakallahu khair ya shaykh for everything you have done and everything you are doing. The immeasurable change your tapes are having on my life is phenomenal.
With that said, this is a very informative and beautiful article.
You are in my prayers shaykh, Jazakallahu khair.
@Ibn Ali – Jazakallahu khayr x 10000! Yes, those are the clips I was talking about, but I didn’t know they had a full compilation!
Does anybody know if there’s an audio-only version of this quality, because I want to put this lecture on my iPod and I don’t want to do so in video format.
To the so called Mujahideen Islaam:
Walaikum Salaam,
Please look at this photo link of Pakistanis loading military hardware for US/NATO war criminals.
http://news.yahoo.com/nphotos/Afghanistan/ss/events/wl/08072001afghanistan/im:/091007/photos_wl_afp/efbd447d929e8c2a7af0eb68d7619b67/
These mercenaries including the treacherous army and police have facilitated the occupation of a brotherly Muslim country. There is not an iota of doubt about their complicity in genocide of Muslims in a neigbourly Muslim country. I would like to know from learned scholars about the punishment these criminals deserve as per Shariah.
Please stop this mantra about good Taliban in Afghanistan and the bad Taliban in Pakistan. This is nothing but kuffar plot to drive a wedge between Mujahideen and Insha’Allah, they will not be dubed by this false propoganda.
Not only the oridinary army and police but so called religious leaders from Jamaat Islami are indirectly aiding the occupiers. Let us analyse the attitude of JI in this respect. The Ameer of JI, Qazi has said that JI will block NATO convoys IF the Americans do not stop the drone attacks. What kind of statement is this? It definitely implies that they will not blockade the convoys IF drone attacks are stopped. That means it is OK to allow military convoys of war criminals engaged in genocide to kill and maim Muslims in a neigborly country. This alludes to nationalistic attitude of JI. They consider Waziristan , a Pakistani territory and try to prevent drone attacks there but are accomplice to attacks in next door brotherly Muslim country by allowing the flow of military hardware.
Therefore it is imperative for the mercenary Pakistani army and police and ordinary Pakistanis to refrain from implementing the policies of their apostate government. They should resign and try to earn halal income rather than drip their hand with the blood of innocents. Allahu Alam

@Bilal
Brother you shouldn’t call people munafiqeen unless you’re a scholar with the proper knowledge, because if you’re wrong then you become the munafiq. Becareful with the words you use regardless of whether you believe you are right or not.
Jazakallahu Khair
Asalamu Alaikum wa RahmutAllahi wa Barkatuhu
Sheikh, can you comment on who you think the mujahideen are in Yemen? Do you consider the Shia fighting against the government amongst them? How should we view them, and should they be supported?
@Salaam,
I dont need a scholar to think for me thanks. When u ask someone if they support the mujahideen against the kuffar and they say no and call the mujahideen terrorists and call for taking islam back from the jihadists. What do u call someone like that? Progressive muslims?
AS Salaamu alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh may allah make ur face successful and grant u his mercy and his blessings in this life and the next al hamdulillah that ur back on track.
Bismillah
as salaam aliekum wa rahmatullah
Between a rock and a hard place!
The US and its Euro allies are between a rock and a hard place. They cannot withdraw from Afghanistan as everyone will finally know the emperor has no clothes on. The charade is almost over with the world’s economies in tatters and media reports of the false recovery. Yet Gold prices are soaring, job losses are continuing and Pharoah still tells his people that this is magic.
The next moves:- Well a round up of the sites says this. We can expect the invaders to move to a system of containment. They will set about securing Pakistan and the routes in and out. They will increase the number of spies, continue with the drone attacks (possibly from within Pakistan), set about a systematic round of so called militants in the cities, selective assasinations coupled with closure of more madrasas.
As they built walls in Iraq they will build artificial walls around Afghanistan trying to plug every gap possible to starve the supplies of the brothers inside. They will further seek to shrink the operating areas by increasing the fOB’s, increase security in the cities, speed up the training of afghan nationals and others brought in from outside (mercenaries).
Reponses to the containment is to widen the field of operation far beyond the scope that they are prepared for. Keep constantly moving the area of operations, seek supplies and equipment from multiple sources, cut down the invaders freedom to move, deny access to logistics, increase internal security against infiltration by spies, change tactics beyond what is expected or suspected, breakdown into cells for out of area operations and increase in the most essential of all weapons which is dua……….
These are just some of the things that analysts are discussing on the net, well except the dua bit that was from me…………..

@ Saladin post #37
the Amir of JI is not Qazi hussain ahmed but Syed Munawwar Hasan, and can you please give us the link or proof of your claim that he actually said that.
it was the jamiat tulba/youth wing of JI pakistan that mainly fought in jihad of afghanistan against Russia.and they still do.
the founder of JI, Abul Ala Maududi wrote the famous book ” Al jihad fil islam” when he was only 17.
JI at the moment is speaking loudly about the presence of Xe/blackwater in pakistan and holding ”Go america Go” rallies accross the country and telling the government off, for being the slave of america.
may Allah guide us all to the truth, give victory to mujahideen and make islam prevail the lands Ameen.
@ Khilafah fee Kalbi
Akhee, in Arabic Kalbi means “my dog”..”Qalbi” is “my heart” because I know that’s what you meant.
Take care
Shaykh Awlaki, if you have time can you comment on some of the following issues:
-the Hamas-Jund Asar Allah standoff
-the deviant Tantawi’s anti-niqab views

@Rashad (post no#3)
brother if you’re have chance to live in malaysia (which that above mention leader came from), or any south east asian countries even for a short time, you will be amazed by the sheer stupidity of people, so-called Muslims included, for their deepest love toward democracy. and how they spend much of their time working for the sake of election, which they called “Jihad”. they also issuing Fatawa regarding the ruling of voting which is ‘Waajib’ and restraing yourself from voting is ‘Haram’ and committing grave sins. They deducting the Hukm of voting with the ruling of giving Shahadah.
you will see how so-called ‘Islamic’ party, namely pan malaysian islamic party (PAS) manipulating the verses from Al Qur’an and Hadith for their political mileage, thus lying in the name of Allah. yet at the same time they making a coalition with the kuffars parties, socialict party included. in reality they were just another Ahl Al-Bid’ah as they were as secular as others. they also willingly recognized man-mand laws applied in this country.
you also will amazed by how Ta’assub, i mean how fanatic they were to certain so-called ‘ulamas’ which they deem untouchable. no one can critisize this ‘ulamas’ as they were almost achieved the status of Ma’sum (i said almost). this same ‘ulamas’ actually responsible in deviating the teaching of Islam in these lands.
at the same time the called for Jihad and re-establishment of Al-Khilafah never fully gain a momentum here. everything relating to real concept of Jihad and Khilafah still perceived as strange concept. people reaction towards it is what you can described as ’stone cold’. people even raise their eyebrows when you mention the word khilafah. you see that we’re living in the land of thousand Bid’ahs.
So my dear brothers and sisters, please make your dua for us here in s.e asian, for we are still living in darkness of shirk and kufr. and our Muslims brothers were being harrassed and killed on daily basis in Fatani (southern thailand) and mindanao (southern philippines). while the so-called ‘muslim’ leaders here are doing nothing, worse they abatting with those kuffars.

Jihad (Kitab Al-Jihad)
Dawud :: Book 14 : Hadith 2477 Narrated Ibn Hawalah:
The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: It will turn out that you will be armed troops, one is Syria, one in the Yemen and one in Iraq. Ibn Hawalah said: Choose for me, Apostle of Allah, if I reach that time. He replied: Go to Syria, for it is Allah’s chosen land, to which his best servants will be gathered, but if you are unwilling, go to your Yemen, and draw water from your tanks, for Allah has on my account taken special charge of Syria and its people.
Jazakallahu khair.
@ Lubna – i recently read ( AsiaTimes Online) that Richard Holbrooke (US Special Envoy) met with Leaders of Jamaat i Islam and also Jamiat ulama Islam Pakistan whilst on a visit to pakistan..
I wonder what the purpose of those visits were??
Please bear in mind that the JI of Mawdoodi (rahimahullah) is NOT the same JI of today.
But…nothing’s going on in Syria right now.
Or does that mean Greater Shaam?

Assalamu Alaikum Sister Lubna,
I did lot of research and found this:
JI chief threatens to block NATO supplies
PESHAWAR: Jamaat-i-Islami Chief Qazi Hussain Ahmad has warned that if US drones did not stop missile attacks in the tribal area his party would cut off main supply routes for NATO forces in Afghanistan.
Nov 23, 2008 05:33 PM – Dawn – Pakistan News
I could not open the link as it is old. But the date is there and we can see that in any Library for Dawn archives.
Whatever, leave aside the blockade. How do you explain the recent meetings of JI leadership with war criminal, Holbrooke in broad day light? What was the agenda? I am sure it was not for the withdrawal of Illegal American and Nato war criminals. Also Munawwar Hasan went to China after the crackdown on Uighur Muslims that are suffering genocide. Again what was the agenda? What did he achieve?
The recent 180 degree turn of Hamas to liberate Palestine through Jihad is a grim reminder these days that all are prone to Shaitaan’s temptations. Israel was successful in dilutingteh spirit of Jihad by eleiminating key Hamas leaders like Shiakh Yasin and Rantisi. The leftover leadership is totally apologetic and is concentrating on getting recognition of West than engaging in Jihad. No wonder these new leaders are spared the missile strikes that killed As Shaheed Yasin and Rantisi- May Allah have maghfirah on their soul.
Please do not go back to previous history of JI but current actions that are controversial. I have met Brother Munaawar Hasan long baCK and have great respect for Abul Ala Maudoodi-May Allah have Maghfirah oon his soul.
As-Salaamu ‘Alaykum
@Bilal, brother, may Allah (swt) have mercy on me, you, and all the believerrs, I wasn’t disgreeing with you. Rather, I was giving general advice. We tend to get trigger happy with such words that we may accidently use it on the wrong person causing all our good deeds to be wiped out because we would become the kafir or munafiq. A person may seem to be against the mujahideen on the outside, but that may only be because he has been threated by the enemies of Allah (swt). Even though I don’t consider that to be right, but we need to make excuses for our brothers and sisters whether we hate what they are saying or not. Obviously when something is 100% clear then that’s different.
Also, advice to everyone. Imam Muhammad ibn Al-Wahhab (ra) was once giving d’awah to an imam of a deviant sect (I forgot this one). Basically, the manners he showed this man was fantastic and at the end of his letter he told him that he makes du’a for him in his salah (this isn’t the exact quote, but the meaning is there). Let us be like this great imam and make du’a for these brothers and sisters, I myself was one of them, and probably most of us were too. However, if they turn away in pride and arrogance, then may Allah (swt) destroy them in this life and throw them in the lowest parts of Hell for eternity.
As for this hadeeth which was posted above (jazakallahu Khair):
Jihad (Kitab Al-Jihad)
Dawud :: Book 14 : Hadith 2477 Narrated Ibn Hawalah:
The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: It will turn out that you will be armed troops, one is Syria, one in the Yemen and one in Iraq. Ibn Hawalah said: Choose for me, Apostle of Allah, if I reach that time. He replied: Go to Syria, for it is Allah’s chosen land, to which his best servants will be gathered, but if you are unwilling, go to your Yemen, and draw water from your tanks, for Allah has on my account taken special charge of Syria and its people.
What is the authenticity of this hadeeth. I remember reading it before but I forget its strength. Also, Syria here refers to ash-shaam (Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine). I don’t believe the group from ash-shaam has appeared yet. I know brother Awlaki said it was the first to appear in Falasteen, but I feel that since the heart of the conflict of this Ummah is Falasteen, then this group must be outside of it. Allah ‘alam.
Correction to my previous post: it’s Muhammad ibn Abdil-Wahhaab
walaikum as-Salaam wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatu
To Azlan (post #46):
The situation is very bad here. At the same time, there is so much potential. The people seem so sincere, but they have been led astray for so long. I was teaching at an Islamic school here and I noticed that the government textbook actually teaches kids to make wu’du incorrectly. Whenever I use a surau I see the parents of these kids making the same major mistakes. It’s really sad to see a whole country in error. The only reason I moved here is so my children can at least see Islam as something “normal”. No more exposure to retarded Valentine’s day or pork gelatin Easter candies at least! Alhamdulillah
However, the TV channels here like TV3 abd TV9 always play Christmas
episodes of the American cartoons. Why do you think that might be?
Indoctrination into accepting Christianity as a norm, in a
non-Christian society, that’s why.
To make things worse, at every major grocery store you can hear the kuffar southern Baptist Minister, named Dr James Dobson, giving his Christian-biased advice to Muslims, subconsciously, while they innocently shop for food. Dobson is an avid opponent of Islam and he has written many evil books against us and our Prophet (sulAllahu alayhi wa Salam). Dobson, has a M’sian version of his evil website now, where he tries to trick Muslims into coming to seminars to learn about “parenting”. Look at the website below and you can read how Dobson blames Polygamy for the woes of M’sian society. He often compares polygamy to homosexuality, in order to confuse the issue.
Dobson says: “Poor parenting skills, polygamous marriages, divorces, and the lack of or total abdication of parenting responsibilities arising from career and material pursuits, have taken a heavy toll on family life.”

As far as democracy is concerned, Allah (subhannah wa t’ala) has already answered the question of legitimacy of man’s law:
In surah ma’idah (5:50) Allah (subhannah wa t’ala) says:
أَفَحُكْمَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يَبْغُونَ وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ اللّهِ حُكْمًا لِّقَوْمٍ يُوقِنُونَ
translated:
Do they, perchance, desire [to be ruled by] the law of pagan ignorance? But for people who have inner certainty, who could be a better law-giver than Allah?
May Allah (subhannah wa t’ala) purify our hearts and grant us the inner certainty to defeat the lies of the munafuqin and mushrikin; and grant victory to the mujahideen. Amin

Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmat Allah. I’m glad to see the deen strong in Yemen. I should’ve went there instead of Mauritania a few years ago. I’m back in the USA now, but next hijrah, in sha’ Allah.
Shaykh Abu Muhammad al-Maqdisi, hafidhullah, said:
“…You ask about which group you should join.
I advise you to aid the truth and Tawhid (pure monotheism) and its adherents, and to search for those who best fulfill this description and be patient alongside them, as Allah Said: {“And be patient alongside those who call upon their Lord in the morning and afternoon, seeking His Face…”} [al-Kahf; 28]
You have to first know and learn the truth and Tawhid in order to know its adherents, because people are recognized in light of the truth. So, if you come to know the closest people to the call to Tawhid, hold tightly to their friendship and help them as much as you can.
Beware of blind allegiance to personalities, as this will block you off from much good.
The people of the truth that I advise you to stick with must combine these important characteristics:
they adhere to the belief of Ahl as-Sunnah wal-Jama’ah
they follow the Prophetic method in calling to Tawhid and disassociating themselves from shirk
they do this openly, just as Prophet Ibrahim and his followers did
they do not have blind allegiance except to textual evidence
they do their part in aiding and giving victory to the Religion
they are not hurt by those who oppose them or betray them, as in the description of the Ta’ifah al-Mansurah (the Victorious Group – may Allah make us from it)…”
Summary from Reuters:
Quote:
Prepare to fight China, Qaeda figure tells Uighurs
A prominent al Qaeda militant urged Uighurs in Xianjiang to make serious preparations for a holy war against “oppressive” China and called on fellow Muslims to offer support.
Abu Yahya al-Libi, in a video posted on an Islamist website on Wednesday, warned China of a fate similar to that of former communist superpower, the Soviet Union, which disintegrated some two decades ago.
“The state of atheism is heading to its fall. It will face what befell the Russian bear (Soviet Union),” he said in the message in which he accused China of committing massacres against Uighurs and seeking to dissolve their identity.
Soviet forces invaded Afghanistan in 1979 to prop up a Marxist government against Islamist fighters, but was ground down by guerrilla warfare and withdrew in 1988-89. Al Qaeda emerged from the groups that fought Soviet forces at the time.
Uighurs are Muslim native to Xinjiang province, which Islamists call East Turkistan, and have cultural ties to Turkic peoples in Central Asia.
“There is no way to remove injustice and oppression without a true return to their (Uighurs) religion and … serious preparation for jihad in the path of God the Almighty and to carry weapons in the face of those (Chinese) invaders,” he said.
“It is a duty for Muslims today to stand by their wounded and oppressed brothers in East Turkistan … and support them with all they can,” said Libi.
He also accused China of using “satanic ways” to oppress Muslims in the province and replace them with other ethnicities while “looting their wealth and undermining their culture and religion.”
Beijing does not want to lose its grip on Xinjiang in the far West. The vast territory borders Russia, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India. It has abundant oil reserves and is China’s largest natural gas-producing region.
AWARENESS CAMPAIGN
Libi said Muslims around the world needed to be made aware of the situation of Uighurs in China.
“Consecutive Chinese governments have worked hard to sever every link between the wounded people of Turkistan and the Muslim nation,” he said. “They are applying (policies) for their demise and destruction so that their numbers would decline and its Islamic identity would be dissolved.”
In August, the leader of a group calling itself the Turkistan Islamic Party (TIP) urged Muslims to attack Chinese interests to punish Beijing for what he described as massacres against Uighur Muslims.
TIP, which has claimed violent attacks in the past including bombing two public buses in Shanghai in May 2008, has launched violent attacks in the past and accused China of committing “barbaric massacres” against Muslims in Xianjiang.
The province witnessed a wave of violence in July when Uighurs attacked Han Chinese in Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang, after police tried to break up a protest against fatal attacks on Uighur workers at a factory in south China.
The violence saw 197 people killed and more than 1,600 wounded, mostly Han Chinese. About 1,000 people, mostly Uighurs, have been detained in an ensuing government crackdown.

waalykum assalam brother saladin ,post 52
i did not find what you claim about him either. but i found all of this +ve stuff about him below, and this is what i know about him anyway. there is a big smear campaign against good people world wide and JI in pakistan is always on that list all the time and so is abul ala maududi.
http://www.apakistannews.com/pakistani-mujahideen-should-be-allowed-to-fight-in-palestine-qazi-hussain-101478
Qazi Hussain Ahmad said that beside other demands America also wanted to target the high-profile leaders of Al-Qaida and Taliban. “We condemn the Drone attacks on Pakistan and would never give blank cheque to the government to bow before the unjust and anti-Pakistan demands of America” he asserted. Qazi said that a big rally would be taken out against the proposed deal with America and Drone attacks in Peshawar saying “It would be historic event to open the eyes of the rulers.” http://www.thefrontierpost.com/News.aspx?ncat=ts&nid=196&ad=13-04-2009
He has undergone several rounds of captivity with the recent being during crackdown on religious elements in the aftermath of 9/11 because whereas categorically condemned the 9-11 attacks, he was opposed to invasion of Afghanistan. He voiced his concerns publicly and therefore was detained by the Musharraf regime.http://www.pakistanileaders.com.pk/profilesdetail.php?id=57
as for the ”JI leadership’s meeting with holbrook in broad day light” …my common sense tells me it cant be anything shady or evil otherwise it would not have been in the ‘broad daylight’ …it would have been in dark and underhand.
holbrook might wanted to stop JI from openly critisising US and spreading awareness regarding evil nature of US in public by bribing or scaring the leader.
and on the part of JI leader, his motive in accepting this meeting with holbrook could simply be to have a closer look at the evil shytan in human form….
you are raising DOUBTS without knowing the contents of the meeting .as muslims we should avoid suspicions against our fellow muslim brothers until things are clear and proof is out.and dont follow shytan’s instructions.
الَّذِي يُوَسْوِسُ فِي صُدُورِ النَّاسِ
Who whispers into the hearts of men,
مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَالنَّاسِ
From among the jinn and the men.
may Allah guide us all to the truth, give victory to mujahideen and make islam prevail the lands Ameen.
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatulahi wa Barakatuhu Sister,
Noted the contents of your post. Jazakallah Khairan for the reminder. What we are trying on this blog is to offer constructive criticism and nauzubillah not a smear campaign.
Sister, the reason I am objecting to JI meeting with war criminal Holbrooke stems from the fact that the brothers that are directly engaged in Jihad are totally sidelined and ignored. The Jihad started with the occupation of Afghanistan and later spilled over. Does Mullah Umar-May Allah preserve him, communicate/negotiate with war criminals? If Mullah Umar would have followed JI strategy, he would have negotiated and there won’t have been any occupation and Jihad. I would apologise sincerely if Mullah Umar says that it is OK to talk and sit across the table with a known war criminal. At this point it is Taliban that have bloodied the super power and they are the once that can negotiate with them from a position of strenght. I don’t think JI or any other party is in that position.
BTW, JI has been consistently participating in the sham elections and trying to get “seats” through democratic electorate. We have seen so many posts on this blog and a special article on the status of democracy by al-Maqdasi on the site about how the democracy is based on taghoot.
Also the mercenaries are not only Pakistani army, police and ordinary citizens that support the war effort of US/NATO but it extends beyond Pakistan. The ships that carry the supplies pass through the Suez canal under the patronage of the Pharoah of Egypt-Mubarak. The Egyptian masses could line up across the canal and blockade those ships. They too are accomplice in war crimes by their inaction. So are the Gulf countries that provide refuelling at their ports for those engaged in genocide of Muslims. Last but not least myself, who just writes but pays taxes to the taghoot system that produces the military hardware for the military industrial complex of US/NATO.
May Allah forgive us and guide us all.

dear brother Rashad (post#55)
jumpa lagi!
i’m really happy to find a Muslim brother here who’s living (or was living) at the same piece of land as mine, land of thousand Bid’ah.
yes the situation here indeed very bad, seems you live here you’re witnessing it first hand. the people here seem sincere, or maybe more accurate to say they were simple but (there’s always but) they were too naive. they were first class naive. one really bad thing of them is they were made to believe that malaysian is the best Islamic country and they were the best Muslims in the world. and they swallow this bait. this is what the hypocrite leaders and government told them while at the same time they were agents of western kuffars. so you can see why it is have Husnu Al-Zann towards governmant here.
you also right when saying they have been led astray for so long. the most saddening thing those whom leading them toward astray were so-called ‘ulamas’. let’s take PAS for example, they were misleading sincere people who really love Islam. they infact the reason why democracy is still working in this country. look at their leader nik aziz nik mat, so-called mursyidul am, he’s actually leading people away from the teachings of RasullulLah S.A.W. so beware of this dhalloon wa mudhilloon.
as the indoctrination of christian values and teachings it was going on so long and so successful until Muslims here already accepting it as their norm. in fact malaysia on its way to be like indonesia, where you can’t tell who’s Muslim and who’s not. this already happening in east malaysia (sabah and sarawak).
there are many opportunity for james dobson and people like him to propagating their evil teaching in malaysia or other countries in this region, thanks to the hypocrite government and naive population/masses. many of that supermarket or hypermarket were owned by western MNC’s
now even those non-muslims, the kuffars dare to reach us our own religion. now they already quoting the verses from Al-Qur’an or Hadith and reciting it infront of Muslims and dare talking and interpreting our religion Islam, right infront of Muslims. and none of Muslims present there brave enough to stop them. worst there are some Muslims including so-called ‘ulamas’ like nik aziz supporting these kuffars, while at the same time Mujahideen in fatani just miles away north of border were slaughtered. this is the price of democracy Muslims have to pay. they have to pay by sacrifice their religion. this is how democracy and all of its kufr laid Muslims in ruined.
you are spot on when you’re saying it’s really sad to see a whole country in error. this whole country is in very deep error. many Bid’ah occurs, it occur at alarming rate and many even promoted by government itself. and every day many new Bid’ah invented anywhere, Masaajid included. not to mention many form of Kufr and Shirk occur, some in the name of Islam, happening thick and fast. democracy, grave-worshipping, people aduations, etc.
its hard to see change in this land, but if Allah will, it will happen InsyaAllah. if there is change in the land of Arabia then there big chance people will change too, as proven many time in history of this far east lands. most of people here were gloryseekers and trendsettlers. they like falling leaves tend to follow where the wind blows.
but put our Husnu Al-Zann in Allah, i pray these people will change InsyaAllah.

P/S can any brother/sister help me on the matter regarding the ruling of Hijaab and Niqaab according to Islamic Syariah together with daleels? i really need an answer in respond to new Fatwa by Sheikh Al-Azhar prohibiting female students from wearing Niqaab in Al-Azhar campus. JazakalLah Khair
As Salamu 3alaykum Wr Allah Wb…
Jazkallahu Khairan Shaykh for your efforts. May Allah preserve you and protect you from the fitna that will come your way. For all the sincere da’ees will indeed face fitan.
I agree with Akhee Bilal ya Shaykh. Al Maghrib Institute is brain washing the youth here. They started off to be a group which didn’t discuss “controversial” topics, but now they have launched a campaign against the “Jihadist”. Maybe a lecture or refutation could be made Ya Shaykh. Many of the brothers in my area are trying to speak out, but their mass media campaigns speak over our voices.
There is a new seminar that is going to be launched by them called “Reclaiming Islam from the Jihadist” By Waleed Basyouni. I do not like to talk about people with their names, but he has made his nifaq apparent. He openly said in his lectures that the Mujahideen who went to Afghanistan in the 80’s were “losers”. you can find this in his lecture entitled “waging war in the name of God” at right around 35 min.
Something needs to be done Shaykh, insha Allah you will find the time to bring this to attention.
PS Please check your email… and please do check out our new forum.

“Shaykh Awlaki, if you have time can you comment on some of the following issues:

Assalaamau alaikum Yes it is important that the Shaykh speek about this. Most people think that Jund Ansar Allah was wrong. We need the shaykh to clarify.

@ Azlan insha’Allah this will help
Many of the great Ulema of the past have also said that Niqab is fard (compulsory). Therefore the safe option to take is to wear the Niqab.
For if you wear it and it was not fard (compulsory). Then you will InshaAllah at least get the reward for practicing something that the Prophet peace be upon him approved of and his wives and the sahabiyat did. And they are the roles models for the women of this Ummah with regards to how a women should dress and behave. So you do not loose out at all if you wear the Niqab.
Niqaab is indeed a practice of the Sahabiyaat and the mothers of the believers
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah said:
The truth of the matter is that Allaah has made two types of adornment: visible and invisible. It is permissible for a woman to show her visible, outward adornment to people other than her husband and mahrams. Before the verse of hijab was revealed the women used to go out without a jilbaab and the men could see their faces and hands. When it was permissible for a woman to show her face and hands, it was permissible to look at them because it was permissible for a woman to show them. Then when Allaah revealed the verse of hijab and said (interpretation of the meaning):
“O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e. screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed. And Allaah is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful”
[al-Ahzaab 33:59]
then the women began to observe hijab in front of men.
It was narrated that ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) said: “May Allaah have mercy on the women of the Muhaajireen. When Allaah revealed the words (interpretation of the meaning)
‘and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms)…”
[al-Noor 24:31], they tore their aprons and covered their faces with them.”
(Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 4480)
The Mufassireen, such as Al-Qurtubi, site in their Tafseer of the Ayah on Jilbaab (Al-Ahzab 33:59) that the Jilbaab is: “a cloth which covers the entire body… Ibn ‘Abbaas and ‘Ubaidah As-Salmaani said that it is to be fully wrapped around the women’s body, so that nothing appears but one eye with which she can see.” [Tafseer Al-Qurtubi].
However, aside from this Tafseer, we do in fact have an authentic Hadeeth mentioning Niqaab. The Prophet (peace be upon him ) commanded: “A woman (pilgrim) does not cover her face with a Niqaab (i.e. does not tie or affix) nor should she wear gloves.” [Al-Bukharee; Muslim; Saheeh Abi Dawood #1600; authenticated by Al-Albaanee].
Thus, from this authentic Hadeeth, we can clearly see that the Sahabiyaat (RA) were accustomed to covering their faces with Niqaab otherwise, there would not have been any need for the Prophet (peace be upon him) to specifically forbid it during the state of Ihram. Likewise, during Ihram, men are forbidden to cover their heads which shows that outside of being in the state of Ihram they were accustomed to covering their heads, and Allah knows best.
It was narrated that ‘Aa’ishah said: “The riders used to pass by us when we were with the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in ihraam. When they came near, each of us would lower her jilbaab from her head over her face, and when they passed by we would uncover (our faces).”
Narrated by Abu Dawood, 1833; Ahmad, 24067
Shaykh al-Albaani said in Jilbaab al-Mar’ah al-Muslimah (107): its isnaad is hasan because of the existence of corroborating reports.
This hadith indicates that a Muslimah does not wear a fixed Niqab when in ihram but when men come near she can cover the face by lowering the jilbaab from her head over her face and uncover the face when the men pass by during Ihram.
Abu Dawood (1783) narrated that Jaabir ibn ‘Abd-Allaah said: “The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: ‘When any one of you wants to propose marriage to a woman, if he can look at that which will motivate him to go ahead and marry her, then let him do so.’ I proposed marriage to a girl and I used to hide myself until I saw that which motivated me to go ahead and marry her, then I married her.” Classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood, no. 1832. In the report narrated by Ibn Maajah it says that he hid in her garden to see her.
This hadeeth indicates that the women of the Sahabah used to cover their faces, because if it had been the custom for women to uncover their faces, there would have been no need to hide, because he would have been able to see her in any place if she had been uncovering her face.
It was narrated from ‘Aa’ishah… that Safwaan ibn al-Mu’attal al-Sulami al-Dhakwaani was lagging behind the army. He came to where I had stopped and saw the black shape of a person sleeping. He recognized me when he saw me, because he had seen me before hijaab was enjoined. I woke up when I heard him saying ‘Inna Lillaahi wa inna ilayhi raaji’oon (verily to Allaah we belong and unto Him is our return),’ when he saw me, and I covered my face with my jilbaab.”
(Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3910; Muslim, 2770)
Look at how our mother Aa’ishah , who is regarded as one of the best scholars of all time, understood the commandment of hijab. She speaks of Safwaan ibn al-Mu’attal al-Sulami al-Dhakwaani recognising her because he had seen her face before the commandment of hijab and further again she covered her face. This thus shows the importance of covering the face.
My dear brothers and sisters. The issue of both men and women covering their aura is not a light issue. It is the goal of shaytan (satan) to cause mankind to become naked and his shame be exposed from the time Adam, the father of the whole of humanity, was created.

salamalakum,
It’s true. The idea of “American” style democracy is quickly infiltrating minds of young arabs, and students in countries like saudi, qatar, uae. etc. I know, because I’ll be working for one of these great imported institutions of filth. I have already looked at various textbooks that primarily speak about how great is the “american” style democractic government system. Many of our brothers/sisters are becoming familiar with imported filth, and getting brain-washed and adopting them as though their mother’s life depended on it. I am amazed at how scholars in saudi have yet to give a single review of any textbook taught by these american institutions. Why are they so weak only Allah knows.?

Alhamdulillah, it is indeed a great Bounty from our Rabb, that He has blessed us with such great men & leaders for us to look up to & take inspiration from. Just when people give up on Islam – Allah sends these Heroes to revive the Ummah and raise the Banner of Islam once again.
MashaAllah, it was so nice to see those lovely children in Part 3 of the video. InshaAllah they are future Mujahids and it was nice to see them practice shooting with an Ak-47, instead to playing around with Playstation or getting brainwashed watching cartoons or Movies.
May Allah protect & bless them All. Ameen.
And seeing the brothers in action and the brotherhood they share – it was heart warming. InshaAllah, I will be on the battlefield standing with these brothers of mine.
Pls remember me & others in you duaa’s sister – for Allah, Most Gracious to bless us & enable us to be in the ranks of the Mujaheddin.

@ dear brother Islam (post#79)
we are really grateful for your concern about Muslim’s affairs here in malaysia. as part of this Ummah we eager to do our share of responsibilities towards our religion. first we in malaysia desperately need a really good, sincere and rightful person to teach us the real Islam.
there are huge misunderstanding about the real teachings of Islam. majority Muslims here are off that ignorant and arrogant kind of people. they didn’t want to listen, thinking they already know what it takes, yet plainly ignorant about Islam. example if you giving an advice for sisters to wear Hijab, they instantly scolding you right there, and others will jump at you in order to support her. even tought some of them already wearing Hijab, these people readily support that Mujrimah. as they didn’t know this thing is already dead and buried by our Rasul S.A.W. surely they suffering from brain dead.
we really need a sincere Muslim brothers to show us our religion here. we really living in darkness. our eyes blinded, our ears deaf, but our heart still alive.
we really appreciate if any brothers want to meet us for the sake of Allah. if Allah will, InsyaAllah we will meet someday.

Assalam o alikum brothers/sisters,
i wish Imam Anwar holds a class even if it is once a month on Paltalk because there is too much confusion. So many questions come in mind and we have no one we can trust and ask these questions to get the right answers.
I am a Muslim and have the utmost desire to fight Jihad in the path of Allah, but where? I know the Jihad in Afghanistan is a valid one because an occupying force is on them, but what about Pakistan and Yemen? That is Muslims fighting Muslims. For Example in Pakistan: Pakistani Army along with US is fighting the so called “Terrorists” in the North of Pakistan. However, even if we read about the Northern Pakistan, there are so many different groups. There is Taliban of Pakistan, Taliban itself, and al-Qaeda etc etc. Now they all claim that they want Islam…..but whose Islam do they want? If one wishes to join them, how in the world is he going to join them. Who is right? Who is wrong? Where is Jihad-fi-Sabillah??? We only get life once. We don’t want to spill our blood for wrong reasons. I don’t want to wake up in front of Allah just to realize that i wasn’t fighting for sake of Allah, but was supporting “fassad fil-Ardh”.
After reading Sheikh Azzam’s book and listening to Imam Anwar’s Jihad tapes, it is clear as day light that Jihad of Taliban against American army is Jihad fi Sabilillah, but what about the fight against Pakistani army inside Pakistan???
If anyone can answer my questions or if Sheikh Anwar can deliver a speech regarding the confusion; may Allah reward him for it. By the way, I have read Imam Anwar’s article “Fighting Against Government Armies..” I personally think Imam has not done justice to it. No mention of Quranic ayah, no haidth, no quotation of the scholars of the salaf? A 20 line article to one of the most disturbing events of Muslim Ummah??
Amazingly in Pakistan, the evil side is more clear than the Islamic side. Pakistan’s army is the evil side of the battle, but who is on the right side?? What is their purpose? Who is the learder? Who is the amir? Mehsud?, which Mehsud?? Mullah Omar?? or another Mullah? Can anyone who decides to attack a military base on it’s own become a Mujahid fi sabilillah? Does this mean a young boy can wake up one day and attack a military vehicle passing by in Pakistan and consider that Jihad???? Is Jihad always this unorganized? Do Amirs of these groups know their soldiers? Do they have an organized body?
Here is a key question: I am in US, right? A day comes when i pack my bags and leave the states to Pakistan to join the “Jihad”. I reach Pakistan and then the North of Pakistan. What then? Do I join this group or that group? Do i declare my own Jihad against the incoming Police car or an Army van? Do I actually start attacking Pakistan’s army personnel as soon as I land in Islamabad? What are codes? where is the discipline? Who decides what?
We all listen to Imam Anwar’s lectures and get all pumped up…….but then what? What’s the next step? During the Prophet’s time, Jihad was clear. Join his army and clear your intentions and that is it. Even during the latest great Jihad of Afghanistan against the infidels of Russia, things were pretty clear.
Now? We can flex our muscles, get our intentions clear, make Hijrah and still be lost!!!!!!
Did we ever think for a second that may be whatever is going on Pakistan is not Jihad, but fasad. Please brothers, don’t get me wrong and don’t think that i am saying these things to demoralize someone. Allah knows, my intentions are good. i am just asking questions.
If someone has time, please answer my questions. I wish I was next to Imam Anwar. If he was my Amir during a battle, i would not hesitate even for a second to spill my blood, but a battle without an Amir??? It doesn’t sound right.
If someone knows Imam Anwar personally and reads my message, please talk to him for Allah’s sake. You have no idea how these questions have surrounded me and are suffocating me. Jazakallah u khair.
This is just so beautiful
another treasure Alhumduillah
especially for ukhi @ Muqarrib Mujahid insha’Allah and your so right I felt so sad for my boys who have missed out but I hope insha’Allah their sons won’t ameen
The Two Knocks Of Iman
Shawwal 24, 1430 A.H, October 14, 2009
Impart unto us O Mother Hajar
Of how the feeling of Iman conquered
The burning feeling of jealousy and fear
O Companions who dug the trench
Could you formulate unto us in even a rhyme
Of how the reasoning of Iman shot up far beyond
Surpassing the supportable reasoning of pretense (munafiq)
The three mortals were crossing over a valley. Empty, dry, hot, wild and uninhabited. No animals in sight, no plants. They consisted of a man who began to come in to old age and a woman who carried a newly born baby. The feeling of tiredness made them stop. And the hungry baby started to breastfeed on the mother.
But the man, the righteous husband, suddenly walked heading towards the north. There were tears welling in his eyes. He kept on walking. The wife then realized that she and her baby were being left by the man. She thus ran after him, trying to catch up. She trotted with her still reddish baby shaking inside the carrier.
“Why are leaving us O Ibrahim?” she cried, full of questions.
That man, Ibrahim, did not answer. He stopped for a while, took a deep breath and withheld his tears.
“Why are you leaving us O Ibrahim?”
Ibrahim was still quiet. A thousand and one feelings raged in his heart. He, who had been waiting for the apple of his eye for decades. He, who had been spending his nights with doa, begging for a little cry that could break the silence in his house. Now Allah had given that gift, Isma’il. And now, Allah suddenly asked him to leave Isma’il and his mother in this lifeless land. He would feel lonely again. He would be struck by a feeling of worry that has no limits. But what power does a slave has? And why should he think bad of Allah? Yes, he is pleased with His command. Only that, he could not afford to answer Hajar. The watery layers in his eyes started to suffuse. It was raining within.
“Is this an order from Allah?” suddenly Hajar changed her question.
Ibrahim instantly felt crushed. He stopped for a second, and then turned back. He looked straight into Hajar’s limpid and teary eyes. Both his arms clutched Hajar’s arms. “Yes,” he said. He took a long and deep breath. “This is Allah’s order.”
It was a moment of serenity. They embraced each other. “If this is Allah’s order,” Hajar whispered at her husband’s ear, “He would never disappoint us at all.”
“O our Lord! I have made some of my offspring to dwell in a valley without cultivation, by Thy Sacred House; in order, O our Lord, that they may establish regular Prayer: so fill the hearts of some among men with love towards them, and feed them with fruits: so that they may give thanks.” (Qur’an 14:37)
That was the way it all played out. The way of love of the strugglers always demand us to crown love with shining iman. Ibrahim, Allah’s beloved, proved his love. The same goes with Hajar, his wife. Her words became an illustrious proclamation of iman of all time. “If this is Allah’s order, He would never disappoint us at all”. This is the feeling of the heart that flares up to become a determination. The feeling that places one’s reliance upon the Creator, Most High, until it goes beyond the boundary of emotions. This is iman.
Surely, we could imagine that it would be very human for Hajar if she could not accept to be deserted just like that in a hot wilderness without vegetations, without food, without friends. Or if jealousy had overcome her and thus said, “Oh, so you are leaving us here because the barren Sarah is jealous of me?! So we are being let down while you would be enjoying with your other wife?”
Subhanallah. Of course, Mother Hajar was far from such an akhlaq. But let us use the “If” word here to show that what Hajar had done was not an easy thing. Not easy at all. And if her carnal feeling of hesitation were to be obeyed, we certainly would not know about Zamzam, there would surely be no Sa’i between the hills of Safa and Marwa, there would surely be no casting of stones at Jumrah and no ibaadah of sacrifice. And we would perhaps fall short of adding our utterance of salawat to the Prophet with, “…Kamaa sollaita ‘alaa Ibraahiim, wa ‘alaa Aali Ibraahiim..”
Or have we ever imagined another version to the story of Hanzhalah, who had been washed by the angels? The call for jihad was surely very startling for the couple who had just gotten married during the day. Now, what if the wife sulked on the first night and said, “Darling.. This is our first night. Surely Allah and His messenger acknowledge it and give you the exemption..” Hanzhalah, the companion of Rasulullah was really glorious on that of his first night. Being together with the wife and meeting up with the houris with shaheed, all at once. Then, the angels washed his body as he had not the chance to shower after being together with the wife.
“Darling.. This is our first night. Surely Allah and His messenger acknowledge it and give you the exemption..” Subhanallah, how extraordinary the power of these words are. Yes, because these words are so proper, so natural and so human. Let’s play the “If” game again, we would see that what Hanzhalah and his wife had done was not an easy thing. Not easy at all. If Hanzhalah failed to crown his love with iman, there would certainly be no story about a janaza being washed by the angels!
The Mu’meenah who were left by their husbands to go for jihad at the battle of Tabuk were also made to face the test of iman. This is the Jaishul ‘Usrah, the forces with full of hardships. Leaving the families behind in uncertainties, fierce weathers, as well as very poor stocks and provisions. The women of the munafiqeen then came as if female devils full of love and care.
“Ma’am… how could your husband have the heart to leave you behind in a situation like this. The weather is fierce, the harvest is uncertain, the situation is difficult and the kids are still young. Uh, that’s how men are. But you yourself are willing to be left behind? If I were you, I wouldn’t want to be left in such a difficult situation as now..”
“Innama dzahabal Akkal,” the Mu’meenah plus solihah answered, “Wa baqiya Ar Razzaq.” Ah, very apt indeed. For the munafiqeen, sharp words must be used, qaulan baliigha. In our language, approximately what the Sahabiyyah said was, “Ma’am.. those who are gone only know how to eat. If they stay, they would only finish the rations. The Provider is with us.” Didn’t they love their husbands and did they really feel liberated from the burden when the men are gone? Not at all. Their love was as deep as the canyon. Only that, no matter how difficult, no matter how bloody, they managed to cross over and pass through it in order to grasp the pleasure of the Lord.
This is the iman of the emotion. The iman that moves surpassing every other emotion of the heart.
In a similar rhythm, iman could also sing from a different beat. If Hajar taught us about iman rooted in emotions, the Prophet’s companions taught us about the reasoning of iman. Al Barra’ ibn Azib narrated the days of hardship during the excavation of Khandaq. “When digging the trench, we were impeded in a few places by a very hard ground which could not be dug with a hoe. We reported it to Rasulullah SAW. He came, took the hoe and said, “Bismillah,” he then struck the hard ground in one strike until sparks flickered out of it.”
“Allahu Akbar! I am given the keys to Sham (Syria). By Allah, I am truly witnessing its palaces which are red in color now.”
He then struck another hard ground, and again said, “Allahu Akbar! I am given the land of Persia. By Allah, I could see the palaces of Mada’in which are white in color from this position.”
And for the third time, he said, “Allahu Akbar! I am given the keys to Yemen. By Allah, from this position, I could see the arches of San’a!”
This was a supreme promise when the companions were gripped by an extremely awful trepidation. The Quraish, Ghathafan, Jews, and all other pagan tribes in the Arab peninsula were united to become one powerful might to crush Madinah. In an agonizing hunger that entwined into the very pit of the stomach, they must quickly dig the trench before the arrival of the enemies. “The soldiers of Khandaq,” Anas ibn Malik said, “were given two handfuls of wheat. The wheat was then mixed with oil and heated, then poured into palms of everyone. The sahabahs were in a very hungry state at that time, whereas the food they had could only give a bit of smell and warmth in the throat.”
At last, the forces of the federation arrived with all its jahiliyyah arrogance and might. The dignitaries of the mushrikeen were looking for a gap that they could use to cross and penetrate the Muslim’s defense. There was one narrow point that was quite unattended. ‘Ikrimah ibn Abi Jahl, Naufal ibn ‘Abdullah Al Makhzumi, Dhirar ibn Al Khaththab, Hubairah ibn Abi Wahb and ‘Amr ibn ‘Abdi Wudd manage to infiltrate though they could not take their horses across.
‘Amr ibn ‘Abdi Wudd who challenged to a duel was instantly met by ‘Ali. “By Allah, my nephew,” he said, “I don’t want to kill you.” ‘Ali replied, “But by Allah, I want to kill you!” ‘Amr, the dreadful duel ace was belted by ‘Ali in a few blows. He fell. Naufal ibn ‘Abdullah, who retreated in fear fell into the trench, hit the rock and died. The rest ran away helter-skelter chased by ‘Umar ibn Al Khaththab and Zubair ibn Al ‘Awwam. But attacks after attacks from every side of the trench kept on coming. So incessant. Not to mention the news about the betrayal by the Jews in Madinah. Madinah was surrounded from all sides. All ways out and supply routes were shut. Everything felt distressingly suffocating.
“Behold! they came on you from above you and from below you, and behold, the eyes became dim and the hearts gaped up to the throats, and ye imagined various (vain) thoughts about Allah.” (Qur’an 33:10)
The insistent and unrelenting attacks from the morning until the middle of the night forced everyone to hold out in their posts, without even having time to break, answer the call of nature, or even solat. Zohr, ‘Asr, Maghrib and ‘Isya’ had to be combined into one (jamak). “The Mushrikeen,” thus the Prophet said exasperatedly, “are making us leave the solat al-wustha (the middle prayer). May Allah fill up their throats and graves with fire.”
How ironic was what they faced now with what the Prophet promised the other day. Conquering Sham, Persia and Yemen. Ah, felt like the dream was too high-sounding. The munafiqeens could not contain themselves anymore. “Our Prophet is too far-fetched!” they said. “How could he be talking about the faraway Sham, Persia and Yemen when we can’t answer the call of nature in our own houses?” But what happened to the men who have faith? They soared even higher with their iman, distancing their souls from the munafiqeen who wallowed in the bog of doubts.
“When the Believers saw the Confederate forces, they said: “This is what Allah and his Messenger had promised us, and Allah and His Messenger told us what was true.” And it only added to their faith and their zeal in obedience.” (Qur’an 33:22)
The question is, where does this great faith come from? A Mufassir (Ones who makes the Tafseer of the Qur’an) believes that Allah has endowed tawfeeq (Divine-help) to the believers to take lessons from the alternation of the night and day. 7 O’clock in the evening, the surroundings is already dark. But 10 O’clock at night, it must be darker. And 2 O’clock after midnight, it must be even darker. But the darker it gets means, the nearer it is to dawn.
They also felt the same way. The Battle of Badar had already felt very painful for them. How could they engage in killings and violence with their own fathers, sons, kins and relatives. Extremely agonizing. But the Battle of Uhud was even more agonizing. They felt the bitter taste of defeat after winning initially, hearing the news about the death of the Prophet, knowing that 70 of the best sahabahs were martyred and the Prophet suffering wound, bleeding and even his teeth were broken. Yes, extremely agonizing. And now the Battle of Khandaq was even more unbearable. There is some truth in what the munafiqeen had said, “We can’t answer the call of nature in our own houses.”
The grim atmosphere and grip of fear felt by the believers were the same as what the munafiqeen felt. But the ‘ibrah is different. The munafiqeen said, “We don’t even have time to answer the call of nature in our own houses. Now, we are talking about conquering Sham, Persia and Yemen. C’mon!” Whereas the Mu’mineen said, “Wow, it’s getting darker. Insha Allah we are getting nearer to the dawn. Allahu Akbar!”
This is the way of love of the strugglers (Mujahideen), where the feeling of iman moves sweeping over all the other emotions of the heart. This is the way of love of the strugglers, where the reasoning of iman works overcoming every logic of ignorance (jahiliyyah).

A Brief History of The Conflict in Southern Thailand and The Crime of Silence
.
A Brief History:
The Jihad in Thailand began in early morning hours of January 2006 when a small group of Mujahideen led a guerrilla offensive against an illegal Thai military base located in southern Narathiwat. It is reported they killed a total of four Thai soldiers and collected large amounts of ghaneema (i.e. spoils of war). Following this event there were countless incidents in the provinces of Yala, Pattani, and of course the continuance of the efforts in Narathiwat. Soon the attacks were not only focused on military targets, but also police authorities who had been working for the government. The Thai government’s Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra responded to the attacks by declaring martial law on several districts located within the provinces of Narathiwat, Yala, and Pattani believing this would put an end to the uprisings, but instead the people witnessed a surge of violent resistance throughout the southernmost provinces of Thailand. The events gained little international attention and the Mujahideen were classified as simple separatist terrorists leading a ‘campaign of hate and anarchy’.
This did not discourage the Muslims in southern Thailand. They were no strangers to armed conflict against uneven odds. There have been several violent uprisings that had taken place in southern Thailand, mainly in the Pattani province. Each uprising ended as quickly as it began. However the Thai military had failed on a catastrophic level to subdue the most recent 2004 uprising. It is much like the famous metaphor we hear so often. That you can beat a dog into the corner, but you can only beat it so much. At one point or another that dog will have had enough and will strike back. It is at that point the dog can no longer be subdued, but only put down. The same can be said for human beings. If you illegally occupy a land and subject the indigenous people to your rule against their will while at the same time treating them as second class citizens within their own land, there will come a point in which those people will see you in the exact same way that dog saw its master and they will strike back. This is what we witnessed with the Muslims in southern Thailand. They were determined to change the condition of their people, by any means necessary.
Throughout 2004 the ranks of the Mujahideen increased on magnificent levels. Historical moments took place. Such as the battle of Krue-Se Masjid where in a reported 30 Mujahideen took refuge and battled Thai soldiers from the inside. They were all eventually made Shaheed insha’Allah after the Thai soldiers bombarded the Masjid with grenades. The tactics of the Thai military in the battle of Krue-Se Masjid were questioned and lead to sympathy among the people for the Mujahideen and their struggle against the Thai Occupation. This resulted in countless protests throughout Southern Thailand revealing that the conflict was not only a armed struggle, but now it had become a ideological struggle among the people. Over 1000 Protestors were arrested during a demonstration outside the Tak Bai Police Station. They were jammed into trucks and tanks creating literal piles of human bodies. As a result a reported 78 Muslim protestors were made Shaheed insha’Allah as a result of smothering. Events such as these caused the armed conflict to escalate and the Mujahideen intensified their efforts. The Thai government responded by intensifying its military efforts to subdue to resistance.
By the second half of 2006 it became clear to those who were paying attention, that the Thai government was failing repeatedly in their attempts to subdue Mujahideen and had very few options left on the table. Government officials were growing weary and soon became fed up with the failures of Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra. The bombings in Hat Yai, the main city of the South, on the night of September 16, 2006 caused the death of the first ‘western tourist’ in the so far 2 year long conflict. Suddenly it dawned on them that there was a chance the conflict could spread to tourists resorts such as Koh Samui and Phuket. Now all of a sudden the conflict had become a ‘major concern’. Three days later those among the Thai military loyal to Privy Council President Prem Tinsulanonda led a coup against Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra’s regime. This had given many people hope of a fresh start for efforts to resolve the conflict within Southern Thailand. This was because the man who led the coup was Sonthi Boonyaratglin, the first ‘Muslim’ army commander-in-chief in Thai history and was considered a ‘sympathetic’ to the condition of the Muslims in Southern Thailand.
Before when Thaksin was still in power, Sonthi was put in charge of the counter-insurgency efforts in Southern Thailand. However Sonthi wanted to attempt a more conciliatory approach. Thaksin saw this as an act of political interference and strictly prohibited Sonthi from changing the course that had already been set. Thus why hope filled the hearts and minds of the people after news reached that a coup had been lead by the leadership of Commander Sonthi Boonyaratglin. However this hope did not last long. Commander Sonthi stabbed the Muslims of Southern Thailand in the back and continued with the already established policies for the Southern Thailand conflict. The efforts of the Mujahideen increased and the resistance to the laws of kufr waged on.
It was then that the Thai government took the only option they had left. An option many countries jumped on as soon as it became available. They declared the military efforts taking place in Southern Thailand as part of the ‘Global War on Terrorism’. Many may not understand what that means. It means you as a Nation could launch a bombardment killing at the least 150 innocent civilians, mainly women and children, but then at the same time add into the report you killed 10-15 ‘insurgents’ as part of the global effort in the ‘War on Terror’ and face no international criticism nor condemnation. What was once known as genocide becomes known as collateral damage, what was once called raped becomes known the subduing of hostile civilians, and what was once known as murder becomes known as war. Soon after Thailand’s decisions to declare this a war against terrorism the people witnessed the usual rhetoric that we have all at one point or another heard. The Thai government publicly condemned the efforts of the Mujahideen and claimed that they wanted to establish a Islamist dictatorship and was a threat to the free world. We now not only saw the armed conflict intensify, but now the ideological war intensified as well. Thai ‘Muslim’ officials were sent to spy in the Masjids and to indoctrinate a more ‘moderate’ version of Islam in the hearts and minds of the youth. Imams and Scholars were encouraged to teach their followers Thai or even Malay nationalism. While all at the same time the Thai government has done excellent job in keeping the events taking place in Southern Thailand out of the ears and eyes of the international Muslim community.
Southern Thailand Today and The Crime of Silence:
As a result of the Thai government’s decision to make the Southern Thailand conflict as part of the ‘War on Terrorism’ we have seen unimaginable crimes being committed against our brothers and sisters in Southern Thailand. However, the worse crime which has been committed in regards to the conflict in Southern Thailand is the crime of silence. The perpetrators of this crime are none other than each and every one of you. In fact if you wanted to see the face of those who have committed this crime you would have to do nothing more then look into mirror. All of us with the exception of very few are guilty of this crime of silence. We have been silent in regards to the conflict in Southern Thailand and have shown very little vocal and moral support for our brothers and sisters involved.
When we speak out against injustice of our brothers and sisters it must be universal. We must move towards a universal political movement, not limited to a specific region. As I had already stated in the introduction of this article, the conflict in Southern Thailand has made the headlines in various media outlets around the world. Each one filled with the usual anti-Islamist rhetoric that we have heard so much of. It is the duty of each and every one of us that we counter this rhetoric with facts and accurate political analysis. To spread awareness and refute the lies of the enemies of Islam is just as important as picking up a gun or grenade and silencing them through other means. My advice to our brothers and sisters out there is to educate themselves on the political history and current condition of each and every Muslim region. Then to create an outlet delivering news, political analysis, and intellectual reviews of the current events taking place in those regions in order to crush the lies and rhetoric of Neo-Imperialists. All in pursuit of Allah’s pleasure.

Weapons Used By Abu Sayyaf Similar To Those Owned By Kafir Military Forces Of Philippines
.
ZAMBOANGA – The Mujahideen of Abu Sayyaf, the armed group which is said to have an affiliation with Al-Qaeda, recently managed to kill 6 kafir soldiers of the Philippines government in an attack in the region of Sulu. According to the soldiers who managed to escape from death in the fight, they (Abu Sayyaf- ed) have the military equipments similar to those used by the government forces.
“They are truly an organized armed group. They used the type of weapons that are just like the weapons we have,” a wounded kafir Filipino soldier, Lieutenant Felix Serapio, gave witnesses.
A number of soldiers under Lieutenant Felix Serapio were the second team to have entered the village of Siyunugan in Indanan, Sulu, with a mission to “finish off” the Abu Sayyaf group.
“They used the same bullets as the ones we have. In fact, they even managed to drive a V-150 (an armoured vehicle) that we have,” he added.
“They also used black uniforms, as if they were true soldiers,” he continued.
Serapio’s team entered Siyunugan after the earlier team under Lieutenant Ryan Frivaldo was first stationed there.
“Our mission in Sinuyugan is to cleanse this area,” ujar Serapio.
A number of soldiers who drove some V-150, entered Sinuyugan. Only a few hours after being there, Serapio received a call on his radio. Serapio was shocked by something not good from the voice on the other side and advised the speaker on the other side to calm down.
Serapio and his men went to the location of the incident, there had been a very fierce firefight between the government forces and the Mujahideen of Abu Sayyaf. In this first clash, Serapio realized that Abu Sayyaf is not an easy opponent.
In that battle, six kafir forces of the Philippines government were killed and more than 20 others including the police were wounded.
Salaam Alaykum WRB @ brother Abd ur Rahman
We all share your concerns about the situation in Pakistan, specially about the loss of so many civilians. May Allah have mercy on the innocents of Pakistan, specially all those that have died. Ameen.
God knows who is behind the attacks targeting civilians.
As you have said yourself, things are not clear in Pakistan. Which group is on the Haqq and which group is just pretending to be Mujaheddin. Sh. Anwar and none of us can recommend to you sitting so far away, which group to join. Only when you go there and see for yourself, will you be able to figure out, what exactly is going on over there and which group in on the Haqq.
As our beloved Rasool (salAllahu alayhe wa sallam) has said:
“Some people of my ummah will remain victorious over the people until the decree of Allah reaches them.”
“A group of my ummah will continue fighting for the truth, and will prevail over those who oppose them, until the last of them will kill al-Maseeh al-Dajjaal (Anti-Christ).”
So this Righteous group is out there. It is for us to find them. Above all ask Allah to guide you to them. He is the one to guide you and make it easy for you to reach them. So ask our Rabb.
And since you want to be on the “safe side”, then go for the sure Jihad-fi-Sabeelillah, taking place in Afghanistan.
There are so many videos of Mujaheddin groups in Afghanistan, in action and what they do and believe in (like the link I have posted in Post # 77 above).
In conclusion, only when you go there and see for yourself will you be able to figure out which is the righteous group.
So when you are ready & able, you have to then put your Trust in Allah SWT and take that step. Rest it is for Allah to guide you.
May Allah, Most Gracious guide you & make it easy for you to join that victorious group and grant you the privilege & Tawfiq to be in the ranks of those that march to free Al-Aqsa. Ameen.
@Bilal
@Salaam
I was at the lecture delivered by Dr.Basyouni at the Al-Maghrib Event……Didnt want to go in the first place but I think Imam Anwar’s Lecture on The Battle of the Hearts and Minds and the series on The Constants on the Path of Jihad pretty much replies to anything Al-Maghrib throws at us regarding the issue. I pretty much had to suck it up the whole time I was there. I honestly felt like I was listening to a presidential address all over again. It was quite a heart breaker to see an man educated in the deen to be eating out of the hands of western propoganda….Seriously everything that was said in the speech was just CNN or Fox News rewritten to include Islamic phrases.
Subhan’Allah the brother Anwar always speaks the truth, the Kuffar do everything possible to corrupt the minds and ability to think freely of the people. Now its funny because many of the kuffar leaders and their evil sheikhs know that Anwar is one of the true ones and that he is gaining popularity so they are trying everythiing they can do to direct people away from the true form of Islam and the true sheikhs, and yes when the brothers in the Arabian peninsula focus on remonving the kuffar shaytan establishment form Arabia, that will supply immediate strength to the Lands of Rasool Allah SAW and it will cripple the Wests ability for oil resources. May Allah SWA give the truth believers strength, patients and victroy…..and in the end Jennah’. Salamylakum, Abdullah
