Terrorist Petraeus: Difficult Months Are Unfolding Ahead

.
The difficulties of the battle in the land of Afghanistan was once again acknowledged by the military chief of the invader country, America.

The terrorist chief of U.S. Central Command in Afghanistan and Iraq warned that burdensome battle months are unfolding in front of the eyes, and this would become the biggest US military operation since the invasion in 2001.

General David Petraeus reminded those of his forces in a national seminar ceremony in San Francisco.

Terrorist Petraeus said that his military operations will be focussed in the districts where 70 % of the fights are happening in Afghanistan.

In the speech that was delivered for hours, terrorist Petraeus warned thousands of the U.S. marines sent to Afghanistan to confront the defence of the Taliban Mujahideen, who have now risen to power in many parts of Afghanistan.

According to him, a very strong commitment is required in order to battle the Mujahideen of Afghanistan who are possessing an extraordinary strength in the battle arena.

The Jihadist Land of Helmand and the Sagging Operations of the Invaders

.
07-07-2009

In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate

American and British forces have jointly launched operations in Helmand province, south Afghanistan. This is in a time that during the past eighth years, never a day has passed or a night without Mujahideen sustaining great losses on the enemy. However, this time, they have resorted to launching vast operations. Yet it is but an effort in fiasco. Their advancement has been blocked and neutralized. They are just frustrating. This is not a mere claim made by us.

The New York times reporter from Lashkar Gah, the center of Helmand province, writes that operation in Helmand is not a new phenomenon; it is carried out on daily basis for the last eight years. But these operations have not spelled out any result. The New York times reporter says that the current operation will not achieve the desired target because people of Helmand are nearing a stage of populous upheaval. This has made the environment invincible for the American troops as they are trying to engage Taliban. On the basis of his report, even villagers and farmers have taken up arms against the invading army in some district of Helmand province.

They have pledged to carry on the resistance against the foreign soldiers. In fact, the Helmand operation is a failed formula. They have already lost a very eminent general of the British army, which has shaken the spine of the invading forces. The British army has said that the loss of Jim Daton was irreparable to the British army. He is the first high-ranking British military officer died in armed confrontation after the Falkland war in 1982.

Last week, some sources relayed a film produced by the British ministry of defense. The film is a prototype of Helmand province produced with a cost of US $. 23 millions. It is a collection of dummy valleys, plots, roads and deserts of Helmand province to train those soldiers who are leaving for Helmand in Afghanistan. The aim is to familiarize the soldiers with the attacks, ambushes, explosions and threats in the province. The report says, the soldiers are scared merely on seeing the prototype of Helmand as if they were really in Helmand province or in the deserts of Sangain district and are under the attack of the Taliban.

The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan believes, the current US and British operations in Helmand province will prove being another fiasco. However, they have tried to show it larger-than-life by resorting to spreading disinformation and propaganda. They were claiming prior to the operations that these operations would force the Taliban to pull out of Helmand.

They destroyed villages; killed thousands of civilians and tortured them but still victory is a far cry; the Mujahideen have not withdrawn an inch from their positions. Even the Mujahideen have increased in strength. Western circles acknowledge the strength and military capability of Mujahideen.

Because of atrocities and civilian blood bath in Helmand province at the hand of the invaders that even farmers have taken up arms to fight against the invading forces. To force Taliban to withdraw from Helmand is a mere daydreaming. However, they will launch propaganda about their victories but it will not portray the realities on ground. Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate will defeat the invaders with the passage of time. They will face a shameful defeat if God willing. It is up to the invaders to feel the sensitiveness of situation in Helmand. The Mujahid people of Helmand will prove once again their preparedness and steadfastness versus the foreign invasion.

Inshallaah (If God willing)

Jihad Arena Of Afghanistan Flooded With Foreign Mujahideen

.
KABUL – Recruitments carried out by the Al-Qaeda network resulted in the increase of foreign Mujahids who were sent to Afghanistan for the purpose of battling the kafir forces there, whose number was also increasing in order to tackle the presidential election in this coming August.

According to the Western intelligence chief and sources in Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Europe and Turkey are the countries of origin of the Mujahids wo are joining forces with the Mujahideen of Islamic Emirates of Afghanistan (Taliban).

There were also reports about the upsurge in assistance (Mujahid- ed) from Britain who participated in the Jihad in Afghanistan.

One of the Taliban commanders in Helmand said, "According to our counts there are around 40 percent increase in the foreign Mujahids this year, specifically in Helmand. Most of them are the Arabs, but there are also those from Uzbekistan and Chechnya."

As it’s generally known, Helmand is a deadly region for the kafir forces stationed in Afghanistan. More than 10 attacks are launched everyday in this region.

According to the Western intelligence, a good number of “millitants” who came from the Arab countries are mostly spreading out in the Province of Paktika. Whereas those from Turkey are mostly deployed in the province of Farah and those from Uzbekistan are deployed in the Province of Zabul, Faryab and Badghis, the Northern regions of Afghanistan.

Allah Has Beautiful Names (Al Asma’ ul Husna)

.


In Islam, God is Allah, The One other than whom there is no God. He is Al Ahad, The One, Absolute Unity. He is Al `Ali, the Most High; Al `Aziz, The Mighty; and Al Jabbar, The Irresistible.

Gai Eaton writes that “in Islam, God does not embody Himself in any human being or make Himself accessible through idols and images”. “But”, Eaton continues, “He does make Himself Accessible through His Revealed Names. We, in our small way, can exemplify these qualities and attributes in our daily lives. Inspired and aided by The Most Merciful, we can show mercy. Inspired and aided by the One Who Creates Guidance we can guide our fellow men and women. Through His Light our lives may be illuminated. …We love those who are kind to us, and God is Kindness itself. We love generosity when it is directed toward us, and He is The Selflessly Generous One. We are irresistibly drawn towards beauty, and He is the Source of All Beauty. Above all, we love Perfection, and we seek it in vain in this imperfect world. We find it in God, Who alone is perfect. And the Qur’an tells us that ‘the believers are strong in their love of God’. At the end of the road, sign-posted by the divine Names, the Muslim rejoices in an overwhelming love for the One who awaits us at journey’s end”.

The holy Prophet Muhammad, upon whom be peace, is reported by Abu Huraira as saying “God has ninety-nine names, one hundred minus one. The one who enumerates them enters Paradise”.

The Qur’an describes God by His attributes and names, and calls these The Beautiful Names (Al Asma’ ul Husna). This expression occurs in the Qur’an at least four times:

1. Surah Al A’raaf (7), Aayah 180:

The most Beautiful Names belong to Allah; so call Him by them. But shun such men as distort His names; for what they do, they will soon be requited.

2. Surah Al Asraa’ (17), Aayah 110:

Say: “Call upon Allah, or call upon Rahman; by whatever name ye call Him (it is well); for Him belong the most Beautiful Names. Neither speak thy Prayer aloud, nor speak it in a low tone, but seek ye a middle course between”.

3. Surah Taha (20), Aayah 8:

Allah, there is no god but He! To Him belong The Most Beautiful Names.

4. Surah Al Hashr (59),Aayah 24:

He is Allah, The Creator, The Originator, The Fashioner; to Him belong the Most Beautiful Names; whatever is in the heavens and on earth, doth declare His Praises and Glory; and He is Exalted In Might, The Wise.

Aayat 22 and 23 of Surah Al Hashr (59) contain the following additional names:

The Sovereign, The Holy One, The Source Of Peace, The Guardian Of Faith, The Preserver Of Safety, The Irresistible, The Justly Proud.

Based on a tradition of the Prophet Muhammad, upon whom be peace, ninety nine (99) names and attributes mentioned in the Qur’an have been selected and are in common use by the world Muslim community. It might be of interest to mention that the personal name of God in Arabic, Allah, is mentioned in the Qur’an some 2317 times. The name Rabb (The Nourisher and Sustainer) in its various conjugations appears about 978 times. Raheem (The Merciful) occurs 97 times, Rahman (The Most Gracious) appears 58 times. Other words related to Mercy and Compassion are used about 157 times. The generic “god” (Ilaah) and its various conjugations occur 147 times (only once does it occur in the form of “our god” and that in Surah 29, Aayah 46, where it says that “Our God and your God are one and the same”).

An excellent work on this subject is The Attributes of Divine Perfection, an exceptionally beautiful work of art sponsored and published in a limited edition by Xenel Ltd, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. This work translates the ninety-nine names from the Arabic words into English as given below.

Facebook Is Acting Up Again

.
The fear of Jihad and Islam is as if it already stretches to the cranium for the administrators of Facebook.

Yesterday the well-known social networking website, Facebook, deleted a number of accounts owned by the Cyber Jihad Community group which was directed by Muhammad Jibriel a.k.a Prince of Jihad who persistently voice out for Islam and Jihad in the Cyber World. After the news reporting by Eramuslim and Arrahmah, which reported the news about the true nature of Facebook which is anti-Islam and Jihad, now in its arrogance, Facebook also deleted the Facebook account of the Arrahmah group.

The Arrahmah group can be said to have a large number of members in Facebook just like the Cyber Jihad Community group. There are thousands of registered members in the networks of those groups. Similar to the Cyber Jihad Community group, the Arrahmah group is also a network of the Arrahmah Media which is diligent and loud in calling for Jihad.

Arrahmah had some time ago caused a commotion in the Indonesian and global internet world, when the website uploaded the photo of Imam Samudra (insha Allah Shaheed) after his execution by the Indonesian government.

Actually it is not a surprise for the social network created by Mark Zuckenberg, who is an alumni of the Harvard University, to be anti-Islam, much less what’s referred as Jihad, because Mark himself is a member of the Alpha Epsilon Pi, the Jewish college fraternity. Yes, the true nature of the Jews is anti-Islam.

However there is good news for the Muslim social network activists, who had made use of the website for the purposes of da’wah and spreading the Islamic values in the Cyber World. The Arrahmah Media network will in next to no time launch an Islamic social networking website called Nahnumuslim.com (We are Muslims).

And it is assured that in this Islamic social networking website i.e. Nahnumuslim.com there would not be any deletion of account, as long as the members do not call for and entertain the kufr and deviated values. Keep moving forward O da’wah activists in the Cyber World. Allahu Akbar!!

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.

Fatwa by Iraqi Ulama: Hajj & Umrah By Iraqi Citizens, Ruled As Haram

.
The Fatwa of forbidding (haram) the Iraqi citizens to perform hajj, umrah and to laugh invited polemics amongst the Iraqi legislatives, recently. This Fatwa was described in the new book of an Iraqi thinker, Sheikh Muhammad Husein Al-Falahi entitled Muadalah Shafariyah. In this book, Sheikh Falahi said that it is haram for the Iraqi citizens to perform hajj, umrah and to laugh.

"This prohibition is temporary in nature and depends on the reality the ummah is in. The Fatwa will expire with the disappearance of the reasons," he said. Sheikh Falahi said, "how’s the condition of a person who really wants to go to Masjid Nabawi, while with his departure, he is leaving a land where its owners are killed and their blood spilled? How could a person be laughing while in front of him the Muslims are killed, the Holy Al-Quran are torn apart and his honor is taken away by the invaders?"

Whoever does not care about the affairs of the Muslims, he is not one of them.

Pro and Con

This Fatwa attracted both supports and criticisms. Some Sunah ulama in Iraq supported this fatwa. One of the Sunah ulama who did not want his name mentioned said, "Hajj and umrah are stopped the moment the enemies are attacking the lands of the Muslims. To the citizens of Iraq who want to perform hajj and umrah, it’s better that the money to be used for the performance of the hajj and umrah are donated to the Mujahideen. And in fact even the construction of a masjid and marriages could be halted when there is still jihad to expel the enemies from the lands of the Muslims."

"Meanwhile, with regards to laughing, when his laughter comes from the heart which is blind and does not care about the condition of the Muslims and what have happened in Iraq or Palestine today, then it is haram," he added.

In Somalia, The Children Joined Forces In the Jihad Arena

.
Husein Abdi, 13, felt proud that he could participate in the jihad in Somalia, it had been two years that he was in the military training camp of the Hizbul Islam group, one of the jihad groups that is allied to the Al-Shabaab.

"I am confident that to die at a young age is the best death, there is no age limit to become the forces of Allah," he said in a street of Mogadishu.

"This is what my friends and I freely chose, there was no compulsion and I am too happy to become what I am now," he added while carrying an Ak-47 in his hands which looked bigger than his body.

The influx of young Mujahids into the jihad groups in Somalia is sometime made as a weapon by the enemies by saying that the “militant” organizations do not know the rules by recruiting young boys as their forces.

"Making the children as soldiers is not a new phenomenon in Somalia, however what appeared to be new is the systematic recruitment which is expansive in all parts of the country," one of the members of the UNICEF in Somalia, Isabella Castrogiovanni said.

"They look active and free to do campaigns of recruiting children," she continued.

Mohammed Abdulkadir Mursal, 15, one of the young soldiers, his brother had preceded him (to die) during a battle and he said that he must die while holding his weapons.

"I know it is not an ordinary job for the children, but I don’t care what they say because I am the one who decide the choice I took in this life that I live and I will die in this path," Mursal said.

Husein Abdi left his school in 2007, sometimes after the Ethiopian forces invaded Somalia. He joined the Hizbul Islam in Mogadishu after his uncle died in a battle against the Ethiopian forces.

"The cursed Ethiopian forces killed my uncle and I ordered my family (the females) to leave Mogadishu. From then on, I began to pick up weapons to fight the invader forces and their accomplices," Abdi said enthusiastically.

"There are a lot of foreign forces spreading out in our country here," Abdi said, "including the forces of the African Union from Burundi and Uganda."

"This is the reason why we are still fighting. It’s for the sake of defending our religion. We want the implementation of the pure Islamic Shari’ah in this country and we are ready to suffer and sacrifice for its implementation," he continued.

According to Husein Abdi, becoming a soldier at a young age is not a bad action as what had been accused by the enemies. "Why not? After all what had happened, I am confident that this is not a crime."

According to the UN, recruiting young soldiers under the age of 15 is a war crime. They also accused that the children joined forces with the armed groups because of economical motives.

"We do not wish for any payment from what we are doing, however when we started to fight, the money would start to flow in to fulfill our needs," another young soldier objected the accusation made by the international "volunteers".

Dead Kafir Forces Increasing In Afghanistan

.
BAGRAM – Medical personnels in the US hospital in Bagram, Afghanistan said that there have been a drastic increase in the number of soldiers who had become victims in the battle and it’s predicted that the number would keep on rising in the coming few days.

The medical staffs of this hospital which is situated in the North of Kabul said that they were at a loss of what to do by the overflowing of the incoming killed and wounded victims from the international combat forces into the hospital.

Those reports came out in conjunction with the situations which had worsened in a number of provinces in the South and East of Afghanistan during the last few months, caused by the rising resistance and attacks by the Mujahideen, which continually intensified.

The kafir forces led by the US said that their sides had lost control in some districts along Afghanistan, including the districts which bordered with Pakistan.

The sources stated that 2009 would become the most dreadful year for the kafir international battle forces compared to the previous years, since the US began invading Afghanistan in the year 2001.

The US General, David Petraeus said that the forces which was concentrating in Afghanistan, must confront, whether they want it or not, an arena which is extremely difficult in their fight against the Taliban Mujahideen.

So far, the international battle forces have to continually receive defeats as can be told by the huge number of their personnels who have become victims.

Scientists: The Leaves Fall… Not An Ordinary Event

.
In a glance, the falling of the leaves from the trees looks like an ordinary natural event. However, upon closer inspections it is not as such for the scientists, who earnestly scrutinize this phenomenon which is termed as “abscission”.

Abscission is a process undertaken by the plants in order to detach and ‘dispose’ their organs like the leaves, flower petals, flowers, and fruits which are no longer needed or have been infected by diseases.

The falling of the plant organs evidently involves very complex genetic information. The researchers at the University of Missouri (MU) have uncovered the control in the shedding arrangement of the plant organs from the Arabidopsis Thaliana species, which is usually used as an experimental subject.

Not An Ordinary Event

This field is very attention-grabbing for the fruit and floral agricultural industry. This is due to the businessmen in this field who are very depending on the nutritional values, stimulating factors or the shedding preventer of the plant organs which have high business values, one of them is for the purpose of looking after the quality of the fruits. This was presented by the luminary journal website Physorg.com, 22 September 2008.

According to John Walker, head of the MU Interdisciplinary Plant Group in the Christopher S. Bond Life Sciences Center, plants shed their organs because of some reasons. Old leaves for example, are shed in order to assist the repeat cycle of the food nutrients, while the fruits that have already ripened deciduously and fallen down are for the purpose of assisting the seed propagation.

Also, parts of the flowers that have been infected by diseases are purposely dropped and discarded by the plants. It is done in order to prevent the spread of the diseases.

A Lot More Are Unknown

However, there are still other aspects about the shedding of the plant organs that are still not uncovered by the scientists. They still do not understand why Arabidopsis Thaliana shed its flowers after those flowers mature.

The parts of the flowers of the Arabidopsis Thaliana plant do not require a big space, that its shedding does not show any obvious purpose. Strangely, the genes that trigger this shedding have been in the plant for a long time, Walker said.

"The process of the shedding is a phenomenon that is yet to be fully discovered," Walker, who is also professor in the biology field in MU's College of Arts and Science.

The Knowledge Of Allah Is All-Encompassing

Thus, the shedding of the leaves, flowers, fruits and other parts of the plants is in fact not an ordinary event or co-incidence alone. It is a big incident which is purposely created by Allah, which involves a very delicate and complex arrangement of the plant’s genes.

Without this shedding, there is no repeat cycle of the food nutrients, there is no dissemination of the seeds and there is no prevention of the disease infection. If all these processes are stopped, plants will be destroyed in the end. Eventually, human beings who are extremely relying on the existence of plants are sure to suffer and disappear from the surface of the earth.

The statement by the professor about the shedding of the floral part of the Arabidopsis Thaliana which does not seem to have any obvious benefit, only shows the yet incapability of the scientists to understand a complete understanding about this phenomenon. This is also an indication of the limitation of the human knowledge and the All-encompassing Knowledge of Allah.

Allah, He is the Creator of everything, no matter how minute, with a clear intention and purpose, for the sake of goodness for the entire world and its contents, including human beings. He is the One Who created every matter in this world, along with the events, in a perfect and balanced way according to the Majestic decree and knowledge of Allah which had already been written in the Lauh Mahfuzh. It includes the creation of the event where the plants shed their organs such as the leaves and the seeds, which is a form of grace from Allah the Most Merciful to human beings.

“With Him are the keys of the unseen, the treasures that none knoweth but He. He knoweth whatever there is on the earth and in the sea. Not a leaf doth fall but with His knowledge: there is not a grain in the darkness (or depths) of the earth, nor anything fresh or dry (green or withered), but is (inscribed) in a record clear (Lauh Mahfuzh).” (QS. 6:59).
