10 “Interesting” Facts About The Government Of Saudi Arabia

.
Why does Saudi Arabia severely restrict the Islamic movements, or it could even be said as suppressing them? There are some interesting facts about Saudi Arabia:

1. The Saudi regime, just like in most other Arab countries, is a government that intermixes the Haqq (truth) and Batil (falsehood). The Haqq aspect of it can only be seen on the verbal claims, such as the outward symbols of Tawheed on their flag, and their claim that they are an Islamic state, and that they implement the Islamic Shari'ah. These continue to deceive many of the people! However, behind it, the Saudi is actually no different from other secular states.

2. It is a regime that does not rule by what Allah has revealed in every aspect of life, particular and general, rather it is a regime that rules by what Allah revealed in certain cases to the exclusion of other cases... it believes in part of the Book and disbelieves in part... and this may be noticed easily by anyone who would like to observe the Saudi legal system...

3. In the past, convinced that it is not capable of relying on itself or its people for support, Al Sa'ud stretched out their hands to the British in order to help them strengthen their kingdom and authority against the Ikhwan movement, the followers of Shaykh Muhammad ibn 'Abdil-Wahhab (rahimahullah) and others... to the extent that the founder of the Saudi state used to receive a salary from the British, as one of his own grandsons revealed.

And today, it is no longer a secret that the Saudi regime throws itself completely into the lap of America. America has been used as the protector of Saudi Arabia.

4. The Saudi Permanent Committee (al-Lajnah ad-Da'imah) issued the fatwa: “Whoever does not distinguish between the Jews and the Christians and the other infidels and between the Muslims except by nationality, and makes all of their rulings equal, then he is a Kafir.” A fatwa which indeed make a lot of people frowned, but effective in muffling the society of Arabia. Because, is not the Saudi regime itself exactly like that?

5. The Saudi woman is not allowed to be married to a man with whose religion and character she is pleased if he is not from Saudi Arabia. And likewise, the Saudi man is not allowed to marry outside Sa'udiyyah until he has reached a certain advanced age, along with fulfilling certain conditions, and after receiving special royal permission, for which Allah has not sent down any authority... the Messenger of Allah (SAW) spoke truly when he said: "If you do not (marry), there will be Fitnah and widespread evil in the earth".

6. Thousands of people have been slaughtered in Muslim countries in the Arab region, but what has the Saudi government and regime done? Nothing. In fact, even the Imams are banned from making public do'a for the victory of the Mujahideen and the downfall of America, thus nowadays the speeches and do'a during the Hajj are devoid of this mentioning. As a cover up, the Saudi regime only told their Sheikhs to make do'a for the Islamic ummah in general and encouraged their citizens to collect relief funds which they which spread around the world, mainly for the construction of masjids. So don't be surprised if in a remote corner of Indonesia for example, there could be a big and magnificent masjid with the inscription on the inaugural opening: "With donations from the Saudi (kingdom)..."

7) The Saudi establish diplomatic and non-diplomatic relations with the countries that clearly have been slaughtering Muslims massively. In this case, those which have a harmonious relationship with Saudi Arabia are India, Russia, Philippines, China, Israel and America (of course!).

America invaded Afghanistan, and later they invaded Iraq, and it is behind every massacre that is perpetrated at the hands of the Zionist Jews in Palestine... yet along with that, the Saudi regime maintains perfect diplomatic, economic, military and brotherly ties with America! And it gives away its petrol to America and to other countries, all of whom supply the Zionist occupation of Palestine... and today the Saudi regime is leading the Arabs - with all its pomp and arrogance - in a process of total surrender to the Zionist state of the Jews!

8. America has military bases in Saudi Arabia, and there have been Imams and Ulama's who are arrested and jailed by the Saudi authority for openly praying badness for America in the masjids of that country and issuing a fatwa on making halal the blood of the Israeli as long as they are spilling the blood of our brothers in Palestine. It is a regime that has abolished Jihad in the Way of Allah, indeed erased it from its vocabulary and thinking, it has waged war against its people and hunted them down, imprisoned their Ulama's, and put together an army that has no other purpose but to protect the Saudi throne and the Saudi regime!

9. It is a regime that funds and hosts many TV channels that propagate immorality and Kufr, and likewise it funds and hosts many newspapers and magazines – national, international, and local – that propagate Kufr, atheism and secularism, and their names are well-known among the people... and it follows that it is responsible for them all, and everything that is propagated and broadcast therein!.

10. It is a regime that when the king is insulted, or his high status called into question, the one who did so will be identified and dragged out from his hiding place, and subjected to the severest kinds of torture and imprisonment and penalties, and may even be killed... yet when Allah is insulted openly in broad daylight – as in the worthless story "al-Karadeeb" written by the Saudi Zindeeq, Turki al-Hamd, in which he said: "So Allah and the Shaytan are two faces of a single invention"!! – he is left without any objection or account, free to roam throughout the land as he wishes... and indeed, his books and stories full of Kufr and heresy are allowed to be printed by the Saudi state with complete freedom!!.

Do Not Revile Them!

.
Today we see people who do not pray commenting on those who pray, we see people who do not fast commenting on those who fast. We are seeing the doers of jihad being commented on by those who have never borne even half the burden endured by the doers of jihad, restrain your mouth from criticizing them!

O Brothers... I am asking you, what causes you to denounce Amrozi, Imam Samudra, Ali Gufron, Ibrahim, Osama bin Laden, Dr. Aiman Az-Zawahiri and all the Muslim fighters who you think are Terrorists, Extremists, Khawarij or other hurtful names? What... O akhi? What... O ukhti?

Is it because they are doing the "suicide bombing", that you censure it as a form of throwing themselves into hell, because people who commit suicide would surely go to hell?

Know this!

Narrated from Aslam bin Imran radliyAllahu 'anhu (RA), he said: We set out for a battle from Madinah heading for Constantinople. Our forces at that time was led by Abdur Rahman bin Khalid bin Al Walid. While the Romans were attaching their backs to the fortress of Madinah. Then there is someone who attacked the enemies (he advanced alone and jumped into the enemy lines, until he was killed). The people said: "Wow, wow! Laa ilaaha illAllah, he plunged into destruction" (al-Baqarah:195)

Thus Abu Ayyub said: Indeed, that verse (the prohibition of plunging into destruction) was sent down concerning us, the people of the Ansar. Namely, when Allah has made His Prophet triumphed and spread Islam, we said: “Let us take care of and improve our properties”. So Allah Ta'ala sent: “Spend in the way of Allah and do not throw [yourselves] with your [own] hands into destruction,” (al-Baqarah:195). So what was meant by throwing own self into destruction is, managing and improving our properties/wealth and leaving Jihad.

Indeed, what you call "suicide bomb" is not suicide! It is an amaliyah istishahadiyah! Shaheed bomb! It is a form of struggle in establishing this dien! They are seeking death O ukhti! They are seeking shaheed O akhi! People commit suicide because of being in despair! Wanting to run away from problems encountered in this world! While in their case (the shaheed bombers'), it is not because of desperation, but because of seeking His pleasure! They are not cowards and fleeing for fear of America, but because they are not infected by the disease of Wahn!.. the love of the world and the fear of death. Therefore, just sitting around at home because of being lazy to conduct jihad is a form of "plunging own selves into destruction", suicide!

Thus, just because they are happier to perform the “war jihad” than the "economic jihad, knowledge jihad, nafs jihad and all types of jihad which you have created yourselves", then you are criticizing them as people who are jahil, mad, careless and hasty without weighing up the strength?

Know this!

Rasulullah Salallahu 'Alaihi wa Sallam (SAW) in a riwaayah from Imam Ahmad in his Musnad from 'Amru bin 'Abasah he said:

A man asked Rasulullah (SAW) : "O Rasulullah, what is Islam?" He (SAW) said, "Your heart submits to Allah Azza wa Jalla and the Muslims are safe from (the annoyance) of your tongue and hands." He asked again, "How is the most perfect Islam like?" he (SAW) said, "Iman." He asked, "What is iman?" He (SAW) said, "You believe in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers and the Day of Resurrection after death." He asked again, "How is the most prominent iman like?" He (SAW) said, "Hijrah." He asked, "What is hijrah?" He (SAW) said, "You stay away from vices." He asked, "How is the most prominent hijrah like?" He (SAW) said, "Jihad." He asked, "What is jihad?" He (SAW) said, "You fight the kuffar if you meet them." He asked, "How is the most prominent jihad like?" He (SAW) said, "Anyone whose best horse is injured and his bloods are spilled."

Rasulullah (SAW) was asked: "Which deed is the best?'' He (SAW) replied, "Faith in Allah and His Messenger.'' Then he was asked: "What is next?'' He replied, "Jihad (holy fighting) in the Cause of Allah.'' Then he was asked, "What is after that?'' He (SAW) replied, "Hajj Mabrur (an accepted pilgrimage).'' (Al-Bukhari and Muslim).

From 'Aishah Radliyallaahu 'anhu (RA) that she once asked: "O Prophet of Allah! Jihad (striving or fighting in the cause of Allah) is the best deed. Should we (women) then, not actively participate in it?" The Prophet (SAW) replied: "The best jihad for you is Hajj Mabrur." (Bukhari and Muslim) .

That is the shar'ie meaning of jihad, i.e. war! It is because of this that the ulama's unanimously agreed that if if you find the word jihad mentioned on its own or is self-supporting, then the meaning is not taken except to the meaning of conducting jihad against the kafir with the swords until they embrace Islam, or give jizya from their hands while they are in a state of humiliation! And not taken to other meanings. So that when there are words saying.. "Conduct jihad against the kafir and munafiq" flatly and it wasn't shown how to conduct the jihad, then the meant way of conducting jihad is by fighting and mobilizing all strengths to wage war against the kafir with the swords or other weapons... not waging a war against the kafir by means of being dutiful to parents, or fasting, or seeking knowledge, etc..

So it is wrong to say that the meaning of the above words are, "be dutiful to those kafir and munafiq" or "resist your carnal desires against the kafir and munafiq" ,.... it's a big mistake! But it means, "FIGHT WITH SWORDS those kafir and munafiq"... Our studying is not jihad. Our knowledge is not jihad. Sitting with our brothers in study halaqah is not jihad, struggling in the kufr parliament is not jihad. Jihad is war, as long as the banner of jihad is still flapping, as long as the spears are still unsheathed and as long as you are still in good health and enabled to bear arms.

"Since America is a super power, then we also need a super power to compensate it, we also need to form a super power state to defeat it," these words are very strongly embedded in the mind of you who feel, WE MUST FIRST GATHER A LARGE FORCES BEFORE FIGHTING. Whereas, it is evident from the collapse of the Soviet Union (a world super power) in the hands of the world's poorest nation (Afghan). Let us ask ourselves, from the lesson of history that we have learned, there are the power of the NATO and Warsaw Pact. And all have said that the power of the the two entities are balanced. The Warsaw Pact has been torn down by this nation honored by Allah (the Afghans), it automatically means that the American forces are only equivalent to the Soviet Union's, again automatically America could certainly be defeated by this world's poorest nations! Then, is it the power of arms that becomes the parameters? IT'S NOT... O AKHI!! IT'S IMAN!

Q.S 8:65. O “Prophet, urge the believers to battle. If there are among you twenty [who are] steadfast, they will overcome two hundred. And if there are among you one hundred [who are] steadfast, they will overcome a thousand of those who have disbelieved because they are a people who do not understand.”

Don't you understand? Don't you believe? Who is stronger? America or Rabbul 'Alamin? Do you believe that Allah Azza wa Jalla is stronger than America? Do you really really believe that Rabbul Izzati (God the Almighty) is stronger than the U.S. missiles and the armadas of its forces? You will surely answer, "That cannot be doubted." By Allah, supposing the Islamic countries believe that Allah Azza wa Jalla is stronger than Israel, then we will never be defeated in all fields of our lives. We will not be going back to swallow the humiliations, regrets and lowliness in every aspect of life... if we really believe that Allah SWT is higher, more superior and greater than Israel, then we will not fall into the valley of humiliation again like that has ever happened to us.

Aren't we today experiencing defeats and humiliations on all fronts, except for a few people who are blessed by Allah? Today we are experiencing the bitterness of lowliness and regrets in all facets of life. Why? Because the answer to the belief that 'Allah is stronger than America' is only in the mouth, it doesn't reach the heart and is not practiced.

That belief stops at the fists and the cries of the mouth only, it does not flow with the flow of our bloods. Do you think if we are asked : "Which is stronger America or Allah?" then we reply: "Definitely, Allah is stronger, " then suddenly the situation will change? Or when we march with clenched fists shouting : "Crush America, America is the criminal, etc." then the circumstances will change immediately? Are things going to change with only words, yells and fists?

Allah does not send down His help until we prove it with our deeds, the tawheed uluhiyah is with deeds. Allah does not give victory except to the people whose aqeedah have been proven, whose tawheed has been proven with the intermediation of their tears, sweats and blood. Allah does not give victory to the people who are nervous with the power of America and other world giants. Allah does not give victory to the people who are afraid of America, dazzled by the American military pomp. Until Allah sees to His slaves, that His slaves have given everything they have in this real war because they are not willing that their Rabb is humiliated by the evil creatures and despised fasiqs (America). That's when He sees the proof that these slaves of His are worth getting one of the two victories. While today we see that there is a party of mankind (al-Qaida, Amrozi & Co., Taliban) who prove their tawheed uluhiyah with deeds, tears, sweats, bloods and even their souls, but a part of the Islamic ummah are reviling them instead.

Now, who is stronger, Allah SWT or the Soviet Union? Who is stronger, Allah or America? Do you believe that the forces of Allah, who do not possess the nuclear, are able to defeat America?! Then why do we have to wait? Why do we have to have enough weapons and amount of forces first before we want to go forward and fight? Is it because we are afraid of losing? No! But because we fear death and love the dunya!

Statement of the Council of the Leadership, Islamic Emirate, Regarding the Kandahar Jailbreak

.
A MUST READ!

Jamadi-ul-Awwal 22, 1432 A.H, Tuesday, April 26, 2011

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious and the Most Merciful.

Last night (25.4.2011), the Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate managed to get 541 Mujahideen inmates in Kandahar City Jail freed thanks to the blessing and help of the Almighty Allah (SwT) and as a result of successful tactical operations. We congratulate the Mujahid people of Afghanistan, the Mujahideen of the current Jihad, the families of the prisoners and, in short, all the Islamic Ummah over this great victory.

It is worth mentioning to say that the enemy had greatly focused on the security of the jail following two successful operations against the Kandahar jail. They had erected checkpoints around the premises of the prison, being manned both by foreign and internal hireling soldiers. Also, had dug ditches; built solid cement walls; installed security cameras and other instruments of surveillance. But notwithstanding that, the Mujahideen of the path of the Truth, once again proved their tactical ascendancy over the great military colonialist power of the world and its internal surrogates that have been trained and brought up in the West. Thus, the Mujahideen disproved the futile claims of general Petraeus -- the most lauded and praised general of America-- who was claiming that they had wiped the strength of Taliban in Kandahar and had had tangible military gains. Truly speaking, falsehood may be accompanied by fanfare and display but is ever devoid of any essence.

The jailbreak of Kandahar prison showed that America and her allies only live on the back of stints and futile propaganda drive. However, baseless hypes bring in humiliating consequences. The beloved countrymen are witness to the fact that the initiatives and enterprise have constantly remained in the hands of Mujahideen all over the country. In addition to this, the recent successful operations by Mujahideen in other provinces have exposed the deceiving demeanor of David Petraeous-- the top general of American forces-- to the American and the world’s public, that they have had spectacular military gains in Afghanistan. It is grotesque that one day before the breaking of the Kandahar jail. a Pentagon top brass said that they would drive Taliban out of Afghanistan in 2011 and would keep them at bay all over the country. We only would like to tell these well-known liars of Pentagon that do your failed operations in Marjah and Kandahar and the retreats of the American troops from the Korangal and Pech valleys mean obliteration of Taliban or they are indications of your defeat? Whose success is the infiltration of Mujahideen into the ministry of defense of the Stooge Administration right to the very office of the defense minister? Whose triumph is the incidences of killings at the hands of those policemen who are on your payroll?

Ironically, you have now only turned to lies and bombardment of miserable Afghan civilians; destruction of plantations and orchards and filling of prisons with oppressed Afghans. Where are your those standards of human rights and where is your democracy?

The strength and morale of Mujahideen have been boosting and the Afghan masses are standing behind them. The enemy will surely face more military and political defeats. The global invaders and their internal hirelings should put an end to their politics of obstinacy and leave the country of the Afghans to the Afghans themselves. Similarly, the public of the West whose government are participants in the occupation of Afghanistan, should simultaneously re-assess the current developments in Afghanistan; re-evaluate the military situation in the country and prevent their governments from prolonging this worthless and losing war.

In short, the recent operations in Kandhar were successful like all other operations in Kandahar city. May Allah, the Almighty (SwT) bestow blessing and reward on those Mujahideen who worked hard in the past few months to bring to success this plan. May Allah, the Almighty, ensure the realization of a real Islamic system in the country by conferring (on us) self-same favors.

Kandahar Prison Broken Once Again; The Mystifying Battle Between Faith And Technology!!

.
A MUST READ!

Jamadi-ul-Awwal 21, 1432 A.H, Monday, April 25, 2011

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious and the Most Merciful.

The victorious and history producing soldiers of Allah under the leadership of Islamic Emirate have once again broken Kandahar prison, freeing more than 500 imprisoned Mujahideen which include tens of commanders, group leaders and high ranking officials and once again showed the triumph of the forces of mercy and faith over the technology plagued forces of Satan.

Mujahideen had started working on a 360 meter-long underground tunnel with great professionalism, dedication and secrecy, during which they bypassed highly secure check posts and Kandahar-Herat main highway before directly reaching their target, the prison’s political wing in a 5 month period, according to the latest information provided by the Mujahideen in Kandahar.

As planned earlier, the freeing of prisoners through the tunnel began at 11:00 pm last night when 3 previously informed inmates walked into each cell, woke up the Mujahideen and guided them to the tunnel, the process of which finished at around 03:30 am this morning when all the prisoners came out of the tunnel where they were escorted to secure destinations by vehicles.

Kandahar prison was previously broken into by Martyrdom seeking Mujahideen in the month of June 2008, breaking down its security barriers and killing dozens of security guards using an explosive-laden vehicle and heavy arms before freeing all its inmates. After this incident, the security personnel in Kabul’s stooge regime, in a failed attempt upgraded its security parameters by surrounding the prison with belts of security check posts, cameras and mobile patrol groups. The American’s and their hirelings never thought that the brave and daring Mujahideen would ever be able to free their comrades again, especially without any of the security personnel ever noticing or causing harm to any of the 500 prisoners who escaped through the tunnel. This is a sign of the help from the Almighty Allah, which no mind or technology can comprehend and this is considered as nothing more than the strike of the superiority of faith over material means.

This recent operation comes at a time when the echoes from the blow on the Ministry of Defense in Kabul are still ringing in the ears of the puppets in Kabul and their foreign masters while the theatrical drama of the blame game goes on between the two sides. The senate of Kabul regime wants the removal of the minister of defense (Raheem Wardag) from his office in connection with the incident while the high council and others go even further by proposing the changing and scrambling of all officials in security posts. But these people do not realize that they shall be witnesses to even more such Jihadic operations, which shall be even more dazzling and impressive than the previous, the blame of which shall not only force the defense minister to resign but also the “esteemed” head in Kabul! And the American commander supported by state of the art weapons, technology and overflowing dollars, who deceitfully boasts about securing Kandahar, should also ready himself for resignation and admit to his failures and defeat against the Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate.

The Urgency Of Jihad And How The Ummah Should Act In Response

.
Before we embark on this study further, we need to first understand the definition of “Ummah” that we mean in this paper: "The Islamic ummah in this country (Indonesia - ed.) who have understood the right Tawheed and who have understood that the Ruling of Jihad today is Fardhu 'Ain". Because that which will be discussed here is based on the facts that happened to the Ummah with the above definition. So it is not the Ummah in the general and broad sense.

My sadness and concern in seeing the condition of this ummah, where they should be mutually reinforcing each other but the reality is otherwise, setbacks are going on and there are reductions in strength here and there because of being wrong in dealing with the trials from Allah SWT, makes me try to contribute ideas which hopefully can be useful for all of us. Wallahul Musta'an.

Dear Ikhwah, may you all be blessed by Allah ......

All have agreed that the ruling of jihad has become Fardhu 'Ain today. But if asked whether the Amaliyah of Jihad can and should be done where there are enemies that can be attacked, here's where the shubhah (doubt) and debate start. A group of people think that it can be done at any time and any place, whether it be individually or in groups, and the other group are of the opinion that we must wait until all of the preconditions they have set are met.

It is these two camps which later are mutually clashing with each other and make us engrossed in long-drawn-out debates and thus forget that the enemies are always developing the strategies of their tactics, resulting in the weakening of the ukhuwah and solidarity, as well as the emergence of mutual of su'u zhan (negative thoughts).

Let's try to unfurl this issue. All this while, I have noticed that the above differences arise because of being different in viewing whether the Amaliyah of Jihad belongs to a Jihad in the context of acquiring tamkin (power) or only difa'i (defensive) in nature. Now, let us begin the discussion.

Since the fall of Andalusia into the hands of the kafir invaders, it is since that time that Jihad becomes Fardhu 'Ain until we are able to restore or liberate the entire lands of the Muslims into the rule of the Muslims. Especially after the fall of the last bastion of the Islamic ummah, namely the collapse of the Khilafah Uthmaniyah in Turkey in the year 1924.

The role of the Khilafah Islamiyah which all this time had been able to protect the ummah from the vile plots of the enemies of Islam, had also gone. It is also since that time that the Islamic ummah have become a plaything, the target of insults, blasphemies, diatribes, abuses, ethnic cleansing, etc. and no single power was able to be a defender. Until finally Allah started to send down His help by the opening of the Jihad Front in Afghanistan in the era of the 80's. The Afghan Jihad had opened the eyes of the world that in truth the Muslims are very powerful, proven by the collapse of Soviet Union which was not able to confront the Mujahideen.

To cut the story short, due to the enemies' plots, the fruit of jihad that earlier was almost rotten was rescued by Allah with the presence of the Taliban. The ruh (spirit) of jihad which originated from Afghanistan and brought to the entire world by the Mujahideen, is being striven to be put together and managed by a Tandhim which is the most frightening to the enemies, namely AL-QAIDAH, which became a global force without frontiers which could be present anywhere and attacking any time. AL-QAIDAH has transformed into a force to be reckoned with, the defender of the ummah and a blow to the enemies. The examples are too numerous to be mentioned, please look up for yourselves...!

Able to be present anywhere and to attack any time is typical of AL-QAIDAH, it could be individually or in groups. All this is in order to fulfill the two obligations and amanahs (mandates), namely the Amanah to defend the Muslims who have been oppressed for so long and the Amanah to establish a strong world order in accordance with the Manhaj Nubuwwah. Meaning, Jihad today is defensive in characteristic, as well as, at the same time a part of Jihad to obtain tamkin (authority).

What we must understand is, in order to be able to switch on to the stage of tamkin, then at the Phase of Defensive (difa'i) Jihad, we should be able to cause magnitudes of damages to the enemies, weakening their power as much as possible, so that when we invite the wider community (ummah) to participate in jihad, there is no more reason to say that our strength is still insufficient, the enemies are too strong, etc. etc...!!!!

Ikhwatiyal kiram...

The substance of our discussion here is the condition of the ummah in this country, so now let's look into our country. The Amaliyah of jihad that have occurred so far in Indonesia, belongs to which stage...??? This is important for us to understand, because it is from that understanding that we can determine the right attitude towards the Amaliyah of Jihad that have taken place all this time. If we observe, all the Amaliyah of Jihad since the Jihad of Ambon-Poso, Christmas Bombings 2000, Bali Bombings I & II, to the latest one - the Cirebon Bombing, are the forms of Jihad Amaliyah which are difa'i (defensive) in characteristic, it still could not be categorized as the stage of Jihad for the acquiring of tamkin. So that if one is assessing it as a misstep, premature, lacking calculation, not understanding the aspects of politics, etc... etc... it could be ascertained that it comes from the group who believe that Jihad is a must be for obtaining tamkin.

True indeed, the ultimate goal that we want to achieve is tamkin. But don't forget, the ummah is in need of Tarbiyah and examples of real deeds, that this ummah is still having defenders who are able to shake the enemies, as well as in need of real examples of defense actions against the injustices and atrocities acted against them by the enemies. Besides that, the Amaliyah of Difa'i Jihad also serves as a test cauldron and exercise to develop the combat capabilities and strategies of the Mujahideen. So, to be able to perform Jihad for tamkin, then the Difa'i Jihad must be carried out as much as possible with the aim to weaken as much strength of the enemies as possible, so that when the Tamkin Jihad is being called upon the ummah, there is no more reason to say that the enemies are too strong, etc... etc... because it had been proven that the enemies could be weakened.

Once we understand that the Amaliyah of Jihad that have happened so far in this country is Difa'i in nature, then we should agree to be a part of the ranks of supporters of Jihad and the Mujahideen instead of producing correction fitnah against an Amaliyah which then will be responded with excessiveness as well by the supporters of the Amaliyah. And also the disturbing stories as mentioned in the writing, "Risalah wa Nida'at" by Ustadz Urwah rahimahullah, and in the writing, "Go Together With Your Rabb (transl.)" by al-akh Abdul Barr al-Harbiy hafidhahullah, should not have happened. Remember, on the condition of Jihad -especially on the condition of difa'i- every word and deed that weaken the jihad is a major sin, and the encouragement to jihad is obligatory.

Then how should this ummah act in response to the Amaliyah of Jihad that have happened so far...???

Dear Ikhwah, may you all be blessed by Allah ......

How should this ummah behave towards the various Amaliyah of (difa'i) Jihad that have happened in this country all this while...??? Let us learn from how the Taliban behave toward AL-QAIDAH post-the 2001 WTC attack. Look at the Taliban, they have never - and will never - blame AL-QAIDAH which have attacked the WTC, which then eventually led to the attacks of their country by the International Coalition of Crusader Forces, which is still ongoing today. In fact, they later united in one rank confronting the enemies as heroic warriors. They expressed no grievances. That's how this ummah should be...!!!

What we are experiencing in this country as a result of the Amaliyah of the ikhwans so far, is still a far cry from what they (the Taliban) are experiencing there, not even a teensy, tiny bit. Our sincerity in living more difficult lives (the da'wah which is increasingly onerous, the ma'isyah [livelihood] that is getting harder, restriction of freedom to move about, etc.) will be valued as a form of support for the Jihad -in which the ruling is Fardhu 'Ain today- and the Mujahideen, and make us as a unity in the ranks of Jihad.

Ikhwah...

In fact, with the existence of an Amaliyah, it could be the starting point for raising and uniting the strength or could also be the starting point of a division and disintegration of the strength, depending on how this ummah is responding to it. And the enemies are well aware of the conditions such as these, so they are sending in the masters and experts in inventing shubhah into the midst of the ummah, they use all the resources and media that they own to weaken the strength of the ummah. We must understand this...!!!

Whether or not there is an Amaliyah of Jihad, the thaghut will still try with all their might to prevent the implementation of the Amaliyah of Jihad. If then there still occurs an Operation of Jihad (difa'i), then it will obviously aggravate their work, where originally they were only preventing the increase of the Amaliyah, and so now with that Amaliyah they must cope with it and take action against the 'perpetrators'. And of course, their efforts to eradicate and prevent the Amaliyah of Jihad will become more frequent.

Once we already know that the enemies will fight Jihad and the Mujahideen more frequently after the operation of an Amaliyah of Jihad, then what we should do is strengthening our ranks further, fortifying the ukhuwwah, increasing the solidarity, forgetting about the trauma, keeping away from the debate that is not important and avoiding mutual su'u zhan. So that the enemies' plots will be met with failure and they will suffer great losses. Not by the other way around, i.e. mutually “reminding” each other so as not to be affected from the Amaliyah of Jihad, to the point that they don't even dare visit a masjunin (prisoner), whereas they are not even under udzur (valid hindrance, eg. from being ill, old-aged, unfree, etc.).

We also should not get too drawn-out in busying ourselves with unnecessary debates. It is better to use our energy and mind to think of new strategies which are better in the confronting the enemies. The enemies are working 24 hours, spying and looking for our weaknesses, while we are not even aware of it. Study the patterns of movement and strategies of the enemies, think of ways to deal with it, the way to obtain logistics which are needed urgently, etc... etc.... Insha Allah, it is more useful than engrossing ourselves in the debates.

We may be traumatized or disillusioned with the incident of the arrest of many Ikhwan Mujahideen as a result of the legal action operations carried out by the thaghut, the disorderliness of the Sariyah of Jihad that had been developed, etc... etc.... But don’t let all those make us become weak, much less retreating from stepping forward. Do not feel traumatized and disillusioned because of being uncovered, disappointed because of getting less organized, etc. It only makes us stop in doing good deeds. Make it as a lesson so that we could do better in the future. All those should not be a reason for retreating from advancing.

A mu'min is clever, make use of all the abilities that has been given Allah to the utmost degree and do not despair! This path of Jihad is still long ahead. Make the Mujahideen feel comfortable in doing their deeds by taking up the attitude as we have described above. Let us bear with the burden of this jihad all together, indeed the Amaliyah of Jihad is the responsibility of the ummah (all together). If the load is only burdened on the Mujahideen, of course it will become very heavy, which leads to fewer and fewer people willing and are able to perform jihad.

If unknowingly our attitude all this time has been causing the Mujahideen to be more easily captured, the families of the captured Mujahideen to become abandoned, hurting the feelings of the Mujahideen, etc... then let us repent to Allah immediately.

Sad stories such as those mentioned in "Risalah wa Nida'at" by Ustadz Urwah rahimahullah, and in the writing "Go Together With Your Rabb (transl.)" by al-akh Abdul Barr al-Harbiy hafidhahullah, should not happen again to us. The story from a Sheikh, that a lot of major donors had backed off after the operations of arrest of the participants of I'dad in Aceh, should not be happening again as well. While the door of repentance is still open, there is no such thing as ‘it’s too late’ to improve ourselves. Act like the attitude of the Taliban towards AL-QAIDAH after the 2001 WTC attack and remember that someday we will be called to account by Allah SWT for all our attitudes towards Jihad and the Mujahideen.

I end this piece this writing here, if there is anything that is true and useful it comes from Allah alone, and if there are mistakes and shortcomings, then that is from the weaknesses of myself, the faqir and I ask for forgiveness from Him. May Allah accept this as an accretion to the righteous deeds for me, and hopefully there will be responses and inputs from the ikhwah for our common good.

Verses of Inspiration :

"So fight, [O Muhammad], in the cause of Allah ; you are not held responsible except for yourself. And encourage the believers [to join you] that perhaps Allah will restrain the [military] might of those who disbelieve. And Allah is greater in might and stronger in [exemplary] punishment." ( An-Nisa : 84 )

"Indeed, Allah loves those who fight in His cause in a row as though they are a [single] structure joined firmly." (Aş-Şaf : 4 )

In Photos: Mujahideen of Al-Qaeda In Libya

.
This is a visual evidence that the Mujahideen of Al-Qaeda are present in Libya, they are behind the Jihad against the tyrannical dictator, Muammar Qaddafi. Al-Qaeda is known all this time as a jihad organization which are very concerned and consistent in defending the Muslims all over the world, even though the fitnah and propaganda of the kafir always attack them with the accusation of being the perpetrator of "terror" all over the world. They, the Crusader, even say that Al-Qaeda are killing Muslims with bombs, etc… but it is all just a vile fitnah, which Allah alone is All-Knowing of everything.

The Mujahideen of Al Qaeda are not uniting at all with the allied forces, formed by America under the umbrella of NATO, they always keep everything in accordance with the Shari’ah of Islam. Allahu Akbar!

Seeking Faults, Secular Media Sharply Highlights Issues Of Crocs Sandals Worn By Ustadz Abu

.
JAKARTA – Anything could spun by the media reporters who hold a grudge against Ustadz Abu Bakar Ba’asyir. It was reported in some media that the leader of Jamaah Ansarut Tauhid (JAT), Ustadz Abu Bakar Ba'asyir, attended the hearing on Monday (18/4/2011) at the South Jakarta District Court wearing the Crocs brand sandals, the product of Colorado, America.

Not bearing any responsibility, the news headlines that they made up are as if wanting to force the charismatic Ustadz into a corner. Such as the bataviase.co.id, related to this reporting, they made up the title, "Ba'asyir's Brain Is Anti-America, His Feet Wear Crocs Sandals". Different with Okezone.com, they showed their resentment by making up a title: "Hates America, Ba'asyir Does Not Hate Crocs", as if the wearing of the Crocs sandals by Ustadz Abu Bakar Ba'asyir is something wrong.

In fact, in the news of VIVAnews.com it was written, “There is one habit of Ba'asyir each time undergoing trial. Ba'asyir surely wears the famous high-priced sandals, the Crocs”.

In another media, it was written by the okezone reporter with a cynical tone, “When asked by the reporters why he was wearing the sandals produced by the country which he often called Fir'aun, Ba'asyir argued, 'It isn't a problem. It is worldly matters, yes, it is allowed. Using the goods is allowed as long as it does not disturb Islam.'"

Look at they way they wrote the news above. Whereas, like what has been said by Ustadz Abu Bakar Ba’asyir, indeed in Islam there is no prohibition to conduct mua’malah with the kafir people, as long as it is not something in religious affairs. Just like Prophet Sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam (SAW), he had hired Ibnu Uraiqith Al-Laitsy as a guide, whereas he was a kafir.

When Rasulullah passed away, Aishah radhiyallahu ‘anha (RA) said that at that time his armour was being pawned at the place of a Jew, for him to buy wheat (food) for 30 so’. (Shaheeh Bukhari, 3/1068)

Imam Syafi’i and Al-Baihaqi said that the Jew's name was Abush Shahm. (Fathul Bari, 5/140)

It should be known, just like the ruling outlined by the ulama's that the original ruling of every good is halal and permitted to be used. Due to that, anyone who says that food A, drink B, dress C are haram, he must produce a saheeh (valid) daleel (argumentation) from Allah and His Rasul. If there is no daleel that shows its haram, then those goods return to their original status i.e. halal an can be used.

Therefore, it is okay for us to use the product of the kafir because there is no daleel in the Qur’an or from the hadith of Prophet SAW which shows the prohibition of this matter. In fact, there are some evidences that Prophet SAW had also used the products of the kafir and this shows the permission of this matter. The evidences are, among others:

[First] Rasulullah SAW had worn clothes made in Yemen as mentioned in the hadith by Anas bin Malik that Rasulullah SAW, when he was sick, came out wearing the qithriyyah garment (i.e. patterned dress of Yemen made of cotton) (refer Mukhtasor Ash-Shamail pg. 49. Sheikh Al-Albani said that this riwaayah is saheeh). Keep in mind that most people in Yemen at that time were kafir.

[Second] It was recounted that Prophet SAW had worn khufs which were made in Habasyah (Ethiopia) which at time was a kafir country. This is as told by Buraidah:

أن النجاشي أهدى النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم خفين أسودين ساذجين فلبسهما ثم توضأ ومسح عليهما

“The Najashi king had given Prophet SAW, as gifts, two black coloured khufs that looked simple, then he wore them and wiped the two khufs.” (refer Mukhtasor As-Shamail pg. 51. Sheikh Al-Albani said that this riwaayah is saheeh)

Besides that, the view of Ustadz Ba’asyir about conducting mua’malah with the kafir is not contrary to Islam, “For example, I have a neighbour who is kafir and he wants to borrow money to build his house and the same goes vice versa, it would not be a problem in the Islamic Shari'ah. What's prohibited is if I lend money, even if only 1 Rupiah, to that of my kafir neighbour, to be used for making a statue or idol,” he explained in the recordings of his lectures in many places.

Fake Sandal, A Gift From The Jama'ah

Beyond the truth revealed by Ustadz Abu Bakar Baa’syir in answering the reporters' questions, basically the reportings about the Crocs are excessive, unreasonable, appeared to be made up and unintellectual (which only proves the lowliness of the secular media reporters). When enquired, the son of Ustadz Abu Bakar, Abdul Rochim said that the Crocs brand sandals are fake which costs only around Rp. 20,000 (3 USD) a pair. Besides that, the sandals was not purchased by Ustadz Abu Bakar himself, but was purchased by someone and given to Ustadz Ba’asyir through his assistant, Hasyim Abdullah.

“The pair of sandals is a gift from someone through Mr. Hasyim. Abi (my father -ed.) never buys things himself. He is more often to receive gifts from the people around him,” Abdul Rochim said.

Watch, how the media acts unjustly and employs a double standard in spreading the news regarding those who give their lives for the struggle of Islam. They tried to find the slightest fault in order to bring down and discredit the strugglers of Islam, although the method is basically irrelevant and ridiculous.

Padang Food Restaurant Receipt & Desiring For Shaheed

That I : Muhammad Syarif

Insha Allah, by the permission of Allah, very , very much !!!!!! “Dies Shaheed”. Not because of wanting to be called a Mujahid. But the honour of shaheed has been embedded heavily in the heart . With the promise of the One Who created me and Who will purify me. Namely the promise of Allah.......Allah.......Allah.

Christian Sorcerer Wants 'Punish' Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

.

A notorious Christian pastor from Florida, Terry Jones, known for his public burning of the Holy Qur'an, said to the British The Daily Mail that he intends to put the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) on a "public trial".

The statement by the Christian pastor is widely quoted by Zio media that recall that the activities of Jones and his successor pastor Wayne Sapp from Florida led to an explosion of outrage among the Muslims and to an attack the UN building in Mazar-e Sharif in Afghanistan, which resulted in the killing of the so-called "UN diplomats" and the martyrdom of 4 Muslims murdered by these "diplomats".

Only a Russian "diplomat", who persuaded the attackers that he is an apologist for Islam, survived the attack.

"We would try to obtain expertise on both sides of the bench, and if Muhammad (Prophet Muhammad, pbuh, - KC) is found innocent ... then we would issue a public apology to Islam, to the Quran, to the followers of Muhammad for our actions at insulting [them].

If he is found guilty, then we would deal with him in the same manner as the Quran burning. We would offer probably four or five different forms of punishment, and then chose the form of punishment that the people voted upon, that would be the punishment that would be executed...

We did the same thing with the Quran. We had four forms of punishment - they were burning, grounding, shredding and facing of a firing squad. We would put together some type of a picture or some type of a dummy figure to represent Muhammad (the Prophet Muhammad, pbuh - KC), and then the execution would be done on that particular object we created", declared the "Christian" sorcerer, professing the sympathetic magic of most primitive savages.

It is to be recalled that earlier, on March 20, an abbot in one of the Christian churches of Florida, pastor Wayne Sapp, "punished" the Quran, while recognizing the Book of Allah being "guilty of numerous crimes".

Sapp put the Quran, pre-soaked it in kerosene, on a metal tray, and then set fire to the book with a lighter. The desecration of the Quran took place directly in the church, and was witnessed by about 30 Christians.

It is to be mentioned in this context that modern war of the international Infidelity against Islam is total. The combats are taking place both on real fronts with the use of military technology and on the media.

Infidels are using all possible means, both physical and ideological, against Muslims in the hope to turn people from the religion of Allah. However, all these efforts, paradoxically, lead to opposite results.


The number of indigenous Christians and atheists embracing Islam has increased x-fold since 2001 . Islam is recognized as the fastest spreading religion, the number of adepts is growing stronger pace.

In addition, despite enormous efforts of the international Infidelity to stop the spread of Islam by occupation of Muslim lands, conquest wars and imposition of an atheistic religion - Democracy, the territory of Jihad is expanding worldwide.

"They want to extinguish the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah will perfect His light, although the disbelievers dislike it. (8) It is He who sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth to manifest it over all religion, although those who associate others with Allah dislike it". (The Holy Quran, Surah 61." (The Ranks", verses 8-9)

This Is The Face Of The Bomber Of Masjid Polresta Cirebon

.

CIREBON, Indonesia - Shortly after the bombing of Masjid Polresta (Police Resort - administrative unit at county level - ed.) of Cirebon, Friday (15/4/2011), a photo was circulating in the cyberspace believed to be that of the bomber. The picture of the bomber is seen clearly, with the face staring at the camera and torn clothes right in the chest. So far the identity of the bomber has not been known and the janaza has arrived at the Polri (Police of Republic of Indonesia -ed.) Hospital, Kramat Jati, East Jakarta. Who was he?

The Gentle-Faced Bomber?

Who was the bomber of Masjid Polresta Cirebon, on Friday (15/4/2011) noon? The Chief of Police, after visiting the blast site, said that the perpetrator is still very young, i.e. aged in his 20's. According to the Chief of Police, the man was at the third saff (row) and his height was around 170 cm. From the other photos of the bomber which are also circulating on the internet, the man does look quite tall and slender, with a skullcap lying on his left side.

Meanwhile, the Head Unit of the Narcotics Police of Cirebon, AKP (Adjunct Police Commissioner) Tri Silayanto, identified the Bomber as he saw him.

"I saw his hand continued to hold the belly, then exploded. He was wearing a jacket like those of the ustadzs. The look on his face was calm and he had a gentle face," he explained.

Chief of Polresta Cirebon Was the Target of the Bomber

Other photos which are also circulated in the cyberspace are the photos of the Chief of Polresta Cirebon, AKBP (Adjunct of Police High Commissioner) Herukoco. The photo shows the entire back, arms and left ear of the Police Chief, bleeding and wounded, and marks of nail splinters that pierced the flesh were visible.

The bomber, as explained by AKP Tri Silayanto, stood up to go the second saff where the position was just behind the Chief of Polresta Cirebon, AKBP Herukoco. During the Friday khutbah, the bomber was seen leaning on the wall, not looking straight at the mimbar, and shortly before the bomb exploded, he appeared like holding his stomach.

"I did not suspect. But the people in the masjid were mostly looking at the mimbar, and the bomber was in a tilted position, he seemed to be observing the place. Different from the others who were looking in the direction of the mimbar," Tri explained.

At present, the janaza of the bomber is in the Polri Hospital, Kramat Jati, East Jakarta. There is no strict security around the neighbourhood of the Polri Hospital. The janaza was immediately taken into the morgue of the Polri Hospital wrapped in a yellow body bag. Around 10 police officers from East Jakarta Police Resort and Kramat Jati Police Sector were tasked with protecting the jazana of the bomber whose identity up to now is still unknown.

Attention To The Muslims On The Cirebon Bombing Case


JAKARTA - The Islamic Forum, Al-Busyro, recently issued a release entitled "Attention To The Muslims On The Cirebon Bombing Case" written by someone with the name al-akh Isrofiel. Unlike most of the parties who are criticizing and judging the bomber with a negative tone, in this writing, the writer tries to invite the readers, especially the Muslims to see from a different angle. Below is the official release (transl.) :

Assalamu'alaikum Wr.Wb.

It is wajib for the Muslims to sharpen their vigilance and take precautions against their enemies, and the Muslims should always remember that their enemies always stay up to plan and plot against the Muslim. Therefore the Muslims must be constantly vigilant so they can know, where does the enmity originate from and how does the hatred amongst them become ignited???...

Indeed, the presence of the munafiqs in the Islamic community is a latent danger that is big, however even more dangerous than that is the presence of the believers who always accept the dictates from the munafiqs, they also want to listen to the gossips of the munafiqs, in fact even tailing behind the opinions and behaviours of the munafiqs, without heeding its impacts on the Muslims.

The Qur'an has recorded for us some disasters that befell the Muslims, caused by some Muslims who had tailed behind (followed) the munafiqs, the spiteful, so that we can reap the hikmah (wisdom) from the experience of those who came before us.

O spreaders hoax...! O swallowers of fitnah...! O people who do not like to see two people who love each other except they must endeavour to separate them ...! O people who want to denounce the people who are not entitled to be denounced..! Restrain your speech...! For surely you will be prompted accountability for your every word.

Allah Ta'ala says :

Meaning : "Man does not utter any word except that with him is an observer
(angel) prepared [to record]." [Qaaf : 18]

Be careful with the words of deceit, spreading false issues, accusing the Muslims without proof, being prejudiced against Muslims...!!!

Understanding The Bombing Inside A Masjid

It is indeed surprising, a “suicide bomb” (read: shaheed bomb) exploded in a masjid. Curses then flowed freely from various parties, not least from the Muslims themselves.. either they were ever committed to fight this country, or not...

Denunciation of this young man keeps coming insistently when his janaza was not even buried yet... is it true that what was done by this youth is wrong? Allow me to explore a little how to interpret this case from my point of view...

Firstly...

The target of this youth is clear, namely those of the infidels (kafir) from the ranks of the Police of Cirebon, why are the police called kafir...? whereas those policemen do perform solat...? Remember, that the status of those policemen is Ansar Thaghut, i.e. the helpers of the Thaghut so that Islam is not established in this country... they hindered the Muslims, making it difficult for the Muslims, plotting against them and submitting to the Jews by being friends with America, namely the country that kills the most Muslims... then can we say that the police are Muslim...???? If there is anyone who says that hujjah have not been imposed on the police that they do not realize their actions and thus cannot be said as kafir just like that... Remember...!!! They do not know the rulings of committing the sin, or they don't want to know...??? Example, if there is someone who commits zina in this country, but he reasoned that he did not know that the act of zina is forbidden in the Qur'an, can his testimony be accepted...? Of course not... because he does not want to know,,, not making use of the vision and hearing given to him by Allah... the same goes with the police... they are kafir because of their job of fighting the Muslims...

Secondly...

Based on the testimony obtained, of how the movement this youth was observed, it is clear that this young man tried to blow up the infidels who were in the masjid, not trying to blow up the masjid to kill the kafir...!!! Please note carefully this sentence.. Perhaps, the youth had found it difficult to approach the target outside, but he found the opportunity in the masjid, and he did not find other way to kill the target except in the masjid, this is possible... then is it not better for us to have husnudzhan (positive thoughts) on this youth...???

Thirdly...

It is not forever that the masjid cannot be damaged... When the Ahmadiyah built a masjid, and there was a group of Muslims who ruined it, then some people amongst us were silent and there were also those who justified and probably no one had blamed it, but when the masjid owned by the police was harmed, why do we hesitate to act the same...??? Do you consider that the police are more Muslim compared to the Ahmadiyah? Wallahu'alam... But what's certain is, Rasulullah had burned Masjid Dhirar, namely a masjid that was built not for the right purposes, but a place to divide the ummah. It was proven that the people had used that masjid for a gathering place, to gossip, to find the fault of the Muslims themselves, and it was recorded in Surah At-Taubah verse 107. Therefore, can't the masjid used by the ulama's of the thaghut to destroy the fikrah of the ummah, to stop the war against the thaghut, be harmed, even if it's just a little bit...? Is it true that the masjid used by the enemies of Allah to plot against His religion cannot be harmed...?

Fourthly...

True... that this shaheed bomb exploded in a masjid... and a masjid is a sacred place for Muslims... but does anyone remember the story Hathib bin Abu Balta'ah...? Namely the story of a great sahabah who participated in the battle of Badr, when he sent a letter to the Quraysh in the year of the conquest of Makkah, while telling them about the intentions of Rasulullah salallaahu 'alaihi wassallam of wanting to set out and attack them.

Ali bin Abi Thalib described his experiences regarding the incident as follows:

Rasulullah SAW ordered the three of us, i.e. myself, Zubair and Al Miqdad : 'Go to a raudhah (meadow) named Khakh. You will find a woman on her way to Makkah bringing a letter. Take the letter from her hand!' We set out with our horses and upon arriving at the place we encountered the woman who was referred by the Prophet SAW. We asked her so she would surrender the letter that was hidden. She replied that she did not bring a letter. In the end we threatened: 'Show us the letter, if not we'll have to strip you!' She was forced to take the letter out which she carried inside a bag and surrendered it to us. We then returned immediately to see Rasulullah SAW... When opened, it apparently contained a writing: From Hathib bin Abi Balta'ah to the mushrikeen of Makkah telling them about some plans that were going to be carried out by Rasulullah SAW. Hathib was then summoned and asked by Rasulullah: 'Hey Hathib, what is the purpose of this letter?' He asnwered: 'O Rasulullah, don't be so hasty in punishing me. I have a very close relationship with the people of Quraysh. I formerly had been their ally although it was not me who became their backbone. Among the people of Muhajirin who are together with you, there are many who have relatives in Makkah who look after the families and possessions they left behind. Although those Quraysh people do not have a genealogical relationship with me, but I wish that there are some among them who want to look after my relatives. I did this so not because I have become murtad at all, nor because I want to become kafir after I have embraced Islam...'

Rasulullah SAW then said to his sahabahs:

"Indeed, this person has been telling the truth to you!"

Umar Ibnul Khattab replied : "O Rasulullah, allow me to just chop off the neck of that munafiq!" Rasulullah replied promptly: "He participated in the battle of Badr! Do you know, if Allah SWT elevates the dignity of those who participated in the battle of Badr, thus Allah speaks: 'Do as you like, I have forgiven you...!'"

O akhi.. we know and are haqqul yaqin that the sins of those who conducted jihad and are killed in Allah's cause, will be forgiven form the first drop of their blood...

"There are six things that are provided by Allah for one who dies shaheed: his sins are forgiven from the first drops of his blood; he will be shown his place in paradise; kept away from the torment of the grave; he will be spared the torment of the grave; he will be protected from the greater terror (of the Day of Judgement); A crown of dignity, will be placed on his head, one ruby of which is better than this world and all that is in it; he will be married to seventy two of al-hoor al-‘iyn; and he will be permitted to intercede for seventy of his relatives." (HR. Ahmad, At-Tirmidzi -hadith hasan, and Ibnu Majah with a saheeh sanad)

This youth... who continued to receive criticism... with all his ability.. has tried to destroy the enemies of Allah!! Stepping forward boldly and without even a bit of hesitation, to sacrifice his life for the glory of this religion... not the least he was tempted by the future that seems bright for a young man like him... a strong body... he gives for Allah... a brilliant brain that made him able to arrange strategies to enter into the enemy lines.. he gives to Allah....

Indeed.. my life, my ibaadah and my death.. are only for Allah...

Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar!
