3rd March – The Day of the Destruction of Khilafah and the Day of Establishment of Khilafah

The 3rd of March 1924 was the catastrophic day when the light of Islam was extinguished and it’s implementation was taken from our lives. It was the very day that the Muslim Ummah became bare and defenseless against the kuffar onslaught. It is to that day that the kuffar can look back and rejoice for the last 100 years of unfettered domination and exploitation of this once much envied and feared Ummah which was ruling by Islam and spreading Allah’s (SWT) divine message to humanity.

The situation of the Muslim Ummah is in front of your eyes my dear Brothers and Sisters. It is not because of lack of education, resources(67% resources are in the Muslim Lands) or manpower-1.6 Billion but still we are the most backward nation on the face of this earth. The destruction of Khilafah on March 3rd 1924 was a huge mark indicating the beginning of the Muslim Ummah becoming weak and defeated against this kuffar onslaught. This has unfortunately remained to this day for the last more than 89 long years later.

By destroying the Khilafah the army of Shaitan, the kuffar, managed to divide the Muslim Ummah into over 58 illegitimate regimes and the identities associated with it. Through this evil idea of nationalism we became Pakistanis, Bangalis, Sudanese, Arabs and Turks etc. first and Muslims second- Astaghfur-Allah! Unconsciously or consciously the very identity given to us by our Creator Allah (SWT) was laid aside and our personal preferences taught by our Enemies took over, this clearly contradicts what is said to us in the Qura’n, Surah Al-Imran, ayah 103,”And hold fast, all of you together to the rope of Allah (SWT)(the Qura’n, Islam) and be not divided among yourselves and remember Allah’s (SWT) favor on you, for you were enemies one to another, but He Allah (SWT) joined your hearts together, so that, by His Grace you became Brethren (in Islamic Aqeedah)”

The Prophet(saw) said, “The Muslim Ummah is a UNIQUE Ummah among the whole of mankind: Their Land is One, Their War is One, Their Peace is One, Their Honor is One and their Trust is One.”(ahmad)

The kuffar were also able to exploit our resources for their own selfish benefit. The example is clearly visible- The Middle East and Central Asia it does not take a genius to work this out. Through these Puppet regimes in the Muslim World,America and Europe have managed to Create Wars, make the Muslims fighting among themselves through-Pakistan-Bangladesh, Iraq-Iran, Iraq-Kuwait and Now a Direct Occupation and Colonization of Pakistan, Afghanistan & Iraq by the US & British/NATO and to keep the Muslim Ummah backwards through the kufr system so called Democracy i.e. Capitalism, which are basically the Western way of life (through the education, social, economical and ruling systems), and controlling the economic and political institutions through the IMF , World Bank and the puppet regimes. The Muslim Ummah has become so subjugated by these Foreign Evil Powers & Systems that it has began to have doubts in Islam and in itself, resulting in it becoming defeated and surrendered to these kufr & their ideas. It has now unfortunately reached an all time low that it now actually considers Islam to be backwards and these western fallacies to be correct and modern. Astaghfirullah!

Since Islam first dawned on the earth spreading its warm call the enemies of Islam have relentlessly tried to undermine it by using their forces of destruction ,slanders and corruptions through wars and media manipulations, and Now if you are not following their Beliefs, Way of Life, Culture and Values then You Are labeled a TERRORIST (Muslim)– remember “Either you are with US or with Terrorists”. No refrain has been given from using any type of deviant means in the kuffars “crusader quest”, “Just War” to destroy OUR Islamic state-Khilafah, Our Unity, OUR identity , OUR ISLAM and OUR DEEN.

This of course is exactly what the kuffar wanted as illustrated by the British Foreign minister addressing the British Prime Minister shortly before the Second World War. He stated, “We must put an end to anything which brings about any Islamic unity between the sons of the Muslims. As we have already succeeded in finishing off the Khilafah so we must endure that there will never arise again unity for the Muslims whether it be intellectual or cultural unity”(this means the unity on the viewpoint about life, something that affects daily affairs, namely the social, economic, education and ruling systems of Islam).

Similarly Lord Curzon, the British Foreign Minister pronounced the following in front of the House of Commons after the Lausanne Treaty of July 24th 1924, “The situation now is that Turkey is dead and will never rise again because we have destroyed its moral strength, the Khilafah and Islam.” (The Khilafah Osmania)

Take a look at this hadith, “The knots of Islam will be broken one after another. The first is the knot of ruling and the last is the rule of salah.” (Muslim)

Think about it, the “knot of ruling” was lost in 1924 when Mustafa Kemal signed a treaty with the West to turn OUR Islamic State into a secular state{where Man is making Laws instead of Allah(swt) which is clear SHIRK to be ruled by man-made-systems-Secularism/Democracy}, the rest as the saying goes is history. Our dignity, Our Identity, our honor, our land, our brotherhood(being One Ummah) and our unity was lost and still almost 100 years later has not returned. The Muslim Ummah is in state of despair and destitute and honestly speaking things can not really get much worse. Open WARS and Destructions and Onslaught ( SHOCK and AWE) against ISLAM, the Islamic Way of Life and Muslims to make sure that the Western Systems (way of Life enforced in the name of FREEDOM and Liberation), to establish US Imperialistic Hegemony particularly in the Muslim World and that ISLAM will NEVER arise and make sure that the Zionist Terrorist State of Israel becomes the only Power in the Middle East and wipe out the Muslims of Palestine once and for all.
So what can we as Muslims do to climb out of this deep hole?


We should learn a lesson from the Jews( though they are NOT our reference, Our reference is the Quran and the Sunnah, its just an example) , the Israeli population is just 3 million yet they have managed through their evil & deviant means to have their own state(0fcourse it is British and US are its life blood), we just have to look in the Middle East to see just how powerful it is to scare the Hell of Middle East in particular and the Muslim world in general. It is not their wealth or their resources that has made it so forceful but the mere fact that they have one Zionist Jewish state giving them utmost power and support worldwide. Muslims do not have a state which represent Islam and Muslims or to protect Muslims around the world. These puppet Regimes are Kafir “Those who do not rule by what Allah(swt) has revealed are KAFIR.”(5:44)-Mubarak, Hussains of Morocco & Jordan, Asad, Zardari(known as Mr.10%) ,Mahmoud Abbas( Bahai), KHARZAI etc.-are there for the protection of Israel and the kufr interests and suppress the Muslims with their iron clutches, they will murder thousand and thousand fellow Muslims to just keep their position.


We must realize the responsibility (fard) to establish the Khilafah in order to fulfill our obligation through an intellectual and a political struggle, Allah (SWT) says in Surah Al-Imran, ayah 104 “Let there be among you a group inviting to the good (khair-Islam) and ordering what is right and forbidding what is wrong. Those are the ones who are successful


It is HARAM for us to live under man-made laws, Secularism-democracy and capitalism, it is absolute SHIRK by following man-made-Laws. It is an obligation upon us to replace the Taghoot (evil) systems(Secularism-Democracy-Capitalism because Allah (SWT) says in the Qur’an, Surah Al Imran, ayah 85, “And who so seeks a Deen (way of life, rulings, systems, Laws) other than Islam it will not be accepted from him and he will be a loser in the Hereafter.” We must realize that Islam is a way of life, (Socio-Economico-Politico) and its TAWHEED, Aqeedah must be understood by culturing ourselves by visiting Masjids, attending Islamic lectures ,seminars and join organizations which are working to Establish Tawheeed, Islam in its totality i.e. Khilafah. The Qur’an and the Sunnah our basic guidelines for our daily life should be studied, understood , adopted, implemented and carried HOLISTICALLY to the rest of humanity by the state-Khilafah as the Prophet(saw) and the rest of Khulafah did it from Madinah . As individuals it is of vital importance for us to increase our knowledge of Islam holistically to apply in our daily life not to study it as Greek Mythology, the way the Mulas, peer sahab and the corrupt sold out scholars -$cholar$ for Dollar$ telling us the stories of the Prophet (saw) and the sahabah to make us weep and cry as if Islam is like fairy tales from Hindu or Greek Mythology which have NO relevance in our lives today in 21st Century and the place where we live(NYC). We must understand Islam in it’s entirety and practical point of view-as Systems-Laws and Orders (Shariah) not as a philosophy nor as a religion. Islam is NOT a religion anyway. Our Islamic personality has to have out come of our Towheed and Aqeedah from which our actions are derived otherwise we believe in something else and doing something else-that’s a clear contradiction between what we believe in and what we do that is called Oxymoron, ABNORMAL BEHAVIOR and SECULARISM (limiting Islam inside the Masjid for rituals and do whatever we want outside and follow the kufr laws-like the Hindus, Jews and Christians). At the same time we must work to change and replace the present situation (through intellectual and political struggle) as the aya states “….Amr bil Maruf wa Nahi anil Munkr-commanding good and forbidding evil”(3:104)


Allah azza wajl granted us with a great opportunity that the Muslim Ummah is rising up and uprooting the western regimes. We must make sure not only remove these western puppets but also their system which the west enforced on us for more than a century through these puppet regimes like Saud family, Husaain of Mororco/Jordan, Al-sabah of kuwait, Bahrain etc. We must to replace the present man-made-laws with the Laws of Al-Islam i.e. Khilafah. We must make sure we are not foul by any slogans nor any false promises of the kufaar or their puppets like Tantawi, Shafiq, or Suleiman.


The establishment of an Islamic society or Khilafah cannot be done by individuals; it is something that can only be done by group-the voice of many people is more powerful and stronger than just one. There are therefore three ways to establish the Khilafah -either you establish your own group, you work with another group or you join us. There is a Fiqh principle that states, “An action without which another obligation cannot be established becomes an obligation.”


We need to understand how and why is it FARD to work to establish Khilafah? Please check for details: www.Islamicthinkers.com


The Muslims all over the world are one Ummah by their Aqeedah and Towheed, their problem and their solution is one regardless of their place of residence. Today there is a need and an obligation (a matter of Jannah or Jahanam/a matter of life and death) to establish the Islamic state-Khilafah, this should be very clear in the minds of Muslims. It is and was the same state that was established by the Prophet (saw), followed by the Sahaba (ra) till 3rd March, 1924. It is the State where the Muslims will regain their human dignity, salvation and fulfill their obligation towards Allah (swt) to be the witness against humanity. It is the State where the Imam, the Khaleefah will be a shield and a protector for the citizens of Khilafah. The Khilafah state will carry the guidance and Rahmah of Allah (swt) to the rest of humanity. It is the Khilafah State to which people of the world will look up to for justice, security and a better life InshAllah.


Today’s superpower, America, has come to a similar realization as that made by the European powers of the past, “The evolution of Turkey is important to us…It is important for it to continue to be a secular country.” (US Secretary of State, Madeleine Albright, in an address to the House of Representatives Appropriations subcommittee that handles foreign affairs funding, Spring 1997.) No doubt America holds this with conviction with Weapons of Mass Destruction though Ideologically speaking it has lost the battle. The return of the Khilafah will signal the end of America’s own designs upon the Islamic Lands. Today, many Muslims have made a realization of their own. They have realized the impact of the loss of the Khilafah. Muslims must make this realization act as a spur to motivate them to take on the work for the establishment of the Khilafah. For the best reason that there could ever be. Its establishment is a command from Allah azza wajl. Just as the Ummah in the time of Mustafa Kemal worked hard to resist secularism, so must we whether in Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, Jordan or Pakistan. Just as they loathed even the thought of secular rule, so we must seek to uproot it from the Islamic Lands. Finally, the Muslims must take heart that the Prophet(SAW) reported on the Khilafah’s return after its demise. “The Prophethood will remain among you for as long as Allah wills, then Allah will lift it when He wishes to, then it will be a Khilafah Rashidah (Rightly Guided) on the method of the Prophethood, it will remain for as long as Allah wills, then Allah will lift it if He wishes, then it will be a hereditary leadership which will remain for as long as Allah wills, then He will lift it if he wishes, then it will be a tyrannical rule, and it will remain so for as long as Allah wills, then He will lift it if He wishes, then it will be a Khilafah on the method of the Prophethood, then he kept silent.”


Allah azza wajl has promised (the meaning of the translation), “to those among you who believe and work righteous deeds, that He will, of a surety, grant them in the land, inheritance (of power)“, [24:55]


The Messenger of Allah(saw) said, “Verily Allah has shown me the eastern and western part of the earth, and I saw the authority of my Ummah dominate all that I saw.” [Saheeh Muslim, hadeeth no.2889]


It is a defining moment in the history of Islam, just like the Battle of Badr; either you stand for Islam and your identity firmly, or you let the hypocrites, the munafiqeen, and the kufaar define Islam for you, and you lose your identity forever. You are part of the greatest nation in history, the Muslim Ummah. As the Muslim world finds itself on the edge of revolution and they are waking up to the oppression of the man-made systems above their noses, they must ask themselves what happens next? Do they continue to implement the falsehood of man-made systems of democracy and capitalism? Or do they strive for the sake of Allah SWT and establish the Khilafah? Now is the time to decide as the taghoot are being exposed for their crimes against Islam and the Muslim ummah. As the kings and pharoahs cower in their palaces and the hypocrisy of their allegiance to the Kuffar is exposed, the Muslims can take the initiative, oust these taghoot and establish a divine rule of law i.e. Shariah through Khilafah that supersedes the whims and desires of any individual or group of privileged elite. Remember there is no justice, no liberation, and no dignity without Islam.


A time for Thought! A time for Change! A time for Action! 

The Lesson From the Life of Ibraheem(as) ‘s Struggle.

Verily Allah (SWT) sent the Messenger Muhammad (saw) as a Rahmah-mercy for Mankind. Through him Allah (SWT) revealed the Qur’an, which contains many lessons for us in the narratives of the previous Messengers. The struggle of Ibraheem (as) against the tyrant of his time, Nimrod, is not dissimilar to the situation in which the Muslims find themselves in after the 11th September 2001. Ibraheem (as)’s life is also significant to this time of year when millions of Muslims make the annual Hajj-pilgrimage to Makkah. We hope to reflect on some of the lessons below insh’Allah.

Ibraheem (as) is described as an Ummah by himself. Allah (SWT) says in the Qur’an Ibraheem was indeed an Ummah devoutly obedient to Allah (and) true in faith and he joined not gods with Allah [EMQ 16:120] Moreover Allah (SWT) says: “Behold! We gave the site to Abraham of the House of Allah (i.e. Al-Masjid Al-Haram) (saying): “Associate not any thing (in worship) with Me; and sanctify My House for those who compass it round or stand up or bow or prostrate themselves (therein in prayer). “And proclaim the Pilgrimage among men: they will come to thee on foot and (mounted) on every kind of camel lean on account of journeys through deep and distant mountain highways [EMQ 22: 26-27] Despite there being no one physically present before Ibraheem (as), Allah (SWT) ensured that his (as)’s Azaan (Call) would be heard by many generations to come who would respond to his call and make pilgrimage to Makkah, as they do today, this is indeed a great blessing for Ibraheem and one of the miracles of Allah (SWT).

Ibraheem (as) is known as someone who would debate with himself the issue of man, life & universe, where did we come from and our final destiny: Allah (SWT) informs us hence: “So also did We show Ibraheem the power and the laws of the heavens and the earth that he might (with understanding) have certitude. When the night covered him over he saw a star: he said: “this is my Lord.” But when it set he said: “I love not those that set.” When he saw the moon rising in splendor He said: “This is my Lord.” but when the moon set he said: “Unless my Lord guide me I shall surely be among those who go astray.” When he saw the sun rising in splendor he said: “This is my Lord; this is the greatest (of all).” But when the sun set he said: “O my people! I am (now) free from your (guilt) of giving partners to Allah. “For me I have set my face firmly and truly toward Him Who created the heavens and the earth, and never shall I give partners to Allah.” [EMQ 6:74-79] The firm conviction of Ibraheem (as) is shown here. Ibraheem (as) finds that which the senses perceived as great i.e. the sun and the moon, to be limited and needy themselves and therefore not worthy of worship. Following his rational contemplation Ibraheem (as) makes complete Bara’(Disassociated) from all that his people worshipped.

Allah (SWT) then tells us about the individual daw’ah of Ibraheem (as) to his father: “Also mention in the Book (the story of) Ibraheem: he was a man of Truth a prophet. Behold he said to his father: “O my father! why worship that which heareth not and seeth not and can profit thee nothing? “O my father! to me hath come knowledge which hath not reached thee: so follow me: I will guide thee to a Way that is even and straight. “O my father! serve not Satan: for Satan is a rebel against (Allah) Most Gracious. “O my father! I fear lest a Penalty afflict thee from (Allah) Most Gracious so that thou become to Satan a friend.” (The father) replied: “Dost thou hate my gods O Ibraheem? If thou forbear not I will indeed stone thee: now get away from me for a good long while!” Ibraheem said: “Peace be on thee: I will pray to my Lord for thy forgiveness: for He is to me Most Gracious. “And I will turn away from you (all) and from those whom ye invoke besides Allah: I will call on my Lord: Perhaps by my prayer to my Lord I shall be not unblest.” [EMQ 19:41-48] Ibraheem (as) here distances himself from his father and what he is calling for, preferring Imaan over ties of family, tribe and nationalistic, similarly Muslims must rise above any bonds of nationalism and see themselves as “a unique brotherhood (Ummah) whose land, war, peace and honor is one.” (Ahmad) Nevertheless Ibraheem (as) fulfilled his promise to his father of asking Allah (SWT) to guide his father, if he (as) became aware of the truth “And Ibraheem prayed for his father’s forgiveness only because of a promise he had made to him. But when it became clear to him that he was an enemy to Allah he dissociated himself from him: for Ibraheem was most tender-hearted forbearing.” [EMQ 9:114] But when he discovered that his father was an enemy to Allah (SWT) he made Bara’ (Disassociate) from him and declared him a Mushrik.

Moreover Allah (SWT) tells us about Ibraheem (as)’s da’wah to the society in which he lived: We bestowed aforetime on Ibraheem wahi and knowledge and he said to his father and his people “What are these images to which ye are (so assiduously) devoted?” Attacking that which they worshipped They said “We found our father worshipping them.” A similitude can be drawn here with people in today’s world who do not (on the whole) follow the wooden idols-gods as they did in the past, but the new ‘intellectual’ idols-gods of today which take the form of ‘Freedom’, ‘Democracy’, ‘Human Rights’, ‘Secularism’ , ‘Nationalism’ etc… they follow, obey, submit, serve and Die for such ideas in the footsteps of their forefathers, without scrutinizing them for their agreement with the divine decree of Allah (SWT). After all, what is worshipping or Ibadah in Islam if not to obey, to follow, to submit and to serve? He said “Indeed ye have been misguided.” They said “Have you brought us the Truth or are you one of those who has just come to disturb us?” He said “Nay your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth He Who created them (from nothing): and I am a witness to this (truth). And by Allah I have a plan for your idols after ye go away and turn your backs”… So he broke them to pieces (all) but the biggest of them that they might turn (and address themselves) to it. They said “Who has done this to our gods? He must indeed be some man of impiety!” In the same way that Ibraheem showed the Kuffar (disbelievers) in his time the folly of worshipping what they made with their hands, the events of the 11th of September 2001 have shown the world the folly of eulogizing Human Rights, Civil Liberties, Freedom and Democracy. These very man made concepts, upheld by so many, were shown to be false gods once the guardians of these intellectual idols started arresting 3000 Muslims under the pretext of being members of ‘Al-Qa’ida’. As Muslims are kept in conditions unfit for animals in Guantanamo Bay anyone who has the fortitude to speak up against the atrocities perpetrated by the US and UK in Iraq, Palestine, Chechnya, Afghanistan etc… or anyone suspected of supporting such causes (an Islamic duty upon every Muslim) are automatically branded as terrorists and detained without the ‘right’ to trial and in many instances without any cogent evidence whatsoever.

“The horrific reports of torture, rape and murder at Abu Gharib, as well as the other prisons in Iraq and Afghanistan (BAGRAM), are disappearing from U.S. media while not one word has been “reported” by them on the torture of children at the hands of U.S. personnel. So much for keeping the public informed.” Jack Dalton. Jack_Dalton@ommp.orgJuly 21, 2004

“How do you explain the indefinite imprisonment of children, and sodomizing them, in Abu Ghraib prison in Bagdad?” A Comment by Larry Ross July 22, 2004

“Statements and findings by non-governmental organizations and human-rights groups detail how one female detainee had been raped 17 times in one day by ‘Iraqi’ police in the presence of US troops. Another NGO reported of how one mother-of-four killed herself after being held by her hair and raped in front of her restrained husband, who was forced to watch.”

“A former male prisoner also reported how he regularly saw Iraqi women taken into a room. He said, “They had to pass in front of our tent and cried out, ‘Find a way to kill us’”.” - http://colombia.indymedia.org/news/2004/06/14073.php

The same is going on right now in IRAQ where thousands and thousands Iraqi Muslims are Brutally Murdered in the name of Freedom with all kind of BOMBS whatever were available for US and UK combined attack, as if the previous 13 years of sanction was not enough which killed more than 500,000 innocent Children without counting the women, men and elderly. The US and UK destroyed a country with more than 5,000 years civilization, infrastructures, water supplies, Hospitals, Schools-colleges-universities, gardens so the big corporations can have more than 100 Billion Dollars contracts which will make Iraqi Muslims enslave for the next 100 years. The US exploited the 9/11 and initiated a WWIII against Islam and Muslims world wide in the name of TERRORISM (Islam) and TERRORISTS (Muslims). The same thing was initiated against Ibraheem(as) when they labeled him(as) as a terrorist, They said “We heard a youth talk of them: he is called Ibraheem.” They said “Then bring him before the eyes of the people that they may bear witness:” They said “Art thou the one that did this with our gods O Ibraheem?” Perhaps in the same way that the US arrogantly accused the Muslims as soon as the twin Towers were destroyed in New York, and in particular the Taleban and Usama Bin Laden…. He said: “Nay this was done by this, their biggest one! Ask them if they can speak intelligently!” So they turned to themselves and said “Surely ye are the ones in the wrong!” Then were they confounded with shame: (they said) “Thou knowest full well that these (idols) do not speak!” Democracy-SHIRK (i.e. Man-Made-Laws), Freedom, Secularism and Human Rights are nothing other than the inventions of man. Just as the disbelievers in the past caused tyranny and oppression against Muslims in the name of ‘The Crusades’ and later ‘Civilizing Missions’ (under colonialism), today they butcher Muslims and rape our land and resources in the name of ‘Democracy’ and ‘Freedom’ and ‘Human Rights’ in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine, Chechniya, Kashmir, Sudan, Sumalia etc. However, Ibraheem (as) brings their attention to what they practice, (Ibraheem) said: “Do ye then worship besides Allah things that can neither be of any good to you nor do you harm?”

“Fire upon you and upon the things that ye worship besides Allah! Have ye no sense?”…They said “Burn him and protect your gods if ye do (anything at all)!” In the same way the US led alliance against Islam and Muslims has done its best to murder, torture and eradicate anyone opposing their global hegemony today under the guise of ‘Freedom’ and ‘Democracy’. From dropping thousands of tons of bombs on innocent men, women and children in Afghanistan and Iraq, to supporting butchers like Putin, Manmohan Singh and Netanyahu. There is no measure too severe to silence the carriers of daw’ah and the indigenous people and to protect their economic, political and military interests in Muslim land. The way that the Kuffar of the past declared ‘burn him…’ to Ibraheem (as) the British and US governments have declared their new Laws of Terrorism and extraditions to Cuba, in order to protect their new found idols. Yet Allah (SWT) continues “We said ‘O fire! be thou cool and (a means of)) safety for Ibraheem!” [EMQ 21:51-69] The final victory being with Allah (SWT), whether He (SWT) shows it to us, and we are therefore witness to it, in this world or in the hereafter.

Concerning the Leader in the Time of Ibraheem (as) i.e. Nimrod, Allah (SWT) says: Have you not looked at him who disputed with Ibrâhim (Abraham) about his Lord (Allâh), because Allâh had given him the kingdom? When Ibrâhim (Abraham) said (to him): “My Lord (Allâh) is He Who gives life and causes death.” He said, “I give life and cause death.” Ibrâhim (Abraham) said, “Verily! Allâh causes the sun to rise from the east; then cause it you to rise from the west.” So the disbeliever was utterly defeated. And Allâh guides not the people, who are Zâlimûn (wrong-doers, etc.).
[EMQ 2:258] So Bush declared after the 11th of September 2001, ‘You are either with us or with the Terrorists’ naming his, and Blair’s, massacre of Muslims ‘Infinite Justice’.

O Muslims, Allah (SWT) gives us many lessons in the Qur’an through the lives of his Messengers. The Pharaoh of Musa (as), the Caesar of Essa (as) the Abu Lahab of Muhammad (saw) and the Nimrod of Ibraheem (as) are today replaced by the likes of Obama, David Cameron, Putin, Manmohan Singh, Netanyahu, Mubarak and Zardari. The physical idols have been replaced with the intellectual idols of Democracy and Freedom and changed their Kabah from Makkah to the White House in Washington. Yet the struggle between Haqq and Batil, between Tawheed and Kufr, between the soldiers of Allah (SWT) and those of Taghout continues. Let us make a pledge this Hajj to join this struggle, let us pledge to Allah (SWT) to command good and forbid evil to the societies in which we live, just as the Messengers Ibraheem (AS) and Muhammad (saw) did and commanded us to do, let us work together to establish the rule of Allah (SWT) i.e.Al-Khilafahthrough an intellectual and a political struggle, as opposed to living under the idolatry, tyranny and oppression of man made law-Shirk.

HAJJ & EID MUBARAK

The Likeness of a Donkey Carrying Books

Voting: Path to Hellfire

It was only 4 years ago that the Muslim Ummah rejoiced at the election of Barack Obama to the highest political office in America.  Obama said he would end the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, bring American troops home, close down Guantanamo Bay, and put an end to the decades-old question of Israel and Palestine.  The Ummah sighed collectively in relief; it seemed he was the answer to their prayers. And yet, 4 years later, we now know that he aggravated the war in Afghanistan by sending additional thousands of troops, laying waste to what was once Iraq, and failing to close the illegal prison in Guantanamo Bay.  The issue of Palestine is a wound that does not seem to heal, as Obama showed his true colors by unilaterally siding with Israel, even when Israel violates the same international laws that created it.  Rather than shifting away from the policies of his predecessor, Bush, Obama reinforced Bush’s disastrous policies, even strengthening them as the years dragged on.

 At every election, like clockwork, the Muslim Ummah throws their support behind a candidate, and the Muslims are made into fools once again.  Why is it that we constantly find ourselves in this terrible position?  We make unrealistic expectations and project them onto these tawagheet, hoping that they somehow make life better for us if we elect them.  What does Islam say about voting, elections, and democracy in general?  What does Islam say about participating in these elections as voters, or even as candidates for US congressional seats etc.?

First, we must understand the reality regarding voting, elections, and politics in this country.  Namely, participation in the elections comes in two forms:

1)     Participating as a candidate
2)     Voting for a particular candidate.

So, what are the roles of candidates and what are their responsibilities?

They are described as legislative authorities, who convene to make laws and enact them once they are passed.  Their sources of legislation are either the American Constitution, the consensus of Congress, the consent of the voters, and their own opinions, backgrounds, and beliefs.

As for voting for candidates on a ballot, this vote entails endorsing the candidate’s right as a legislator (Law-maker).  By voting, you are supporting the framework of the election, and saying that you agree that the candidate you vote for, or whoever wins, has the right to make laws on your behalf.

  Our aqeedah and tawheed as Muslims entails submitting, obeying, following, worshipping, and elevating Allah SWT only in every aspect of life including voting and electing.  This is the definition of ibadah, and it must be done exclusively, without associating Allah SWT or His attributes to anyone else.  For example, saying that George Bush is ar-Rahman is explicitly forbidden—an act of shirk which takes you outside of Islam; meaning, you become a kaafir.  As Muslims, our belief entails accepting Allah SWT as the sole Legislator , law-giver (al-Hakaim), with no one sharing in this authority ,right and attribute. إِنِ الْحُكْمُ إِلَّا لِلَّهِ )“Verily the absolute right of legislating is for none but Allah (SWT)” [EMQ 12:40]

And Allah (SWT) says: “It is unlawful for Believing male or female when Allah(SWT) and His Messenger(SAW) decree a command to have any choice but to abide with it and whosoever disobeys Allah or his Messenger went astray in plain mis-guidance” [EMQ 33:36]

So, the question is: Is voting in man-made systems such as democracy allowed in Islam? Would Allah SWT tell you that He is the sole Legislator and then accept that you give this right to a mere human?  On top of that, you give the right of legislation to a kaafir?   وَلَنْ يَجْعَلَ اللَّهُ لِلْكَافِرِينَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ سَبِيلًا {141} . The negation particle ‘lan’ in the verse is emphatic and is grammatically known as the ‘negation of the future’ (li nafy al-mustaqbal).

So, Allah will never allow or want – ever – the enemies of the believers to establish themselves, preside over them or to dominate them (4:141).  How is it that we, the Muslims, would give the right of Legislation, of creating laws, to another person, to put them in power and authority instead of Almighty Allah SWT?  It is a mockery of Islam. Moreover,  to put a Kafir or even a Muslim in a legislative position in a kufr system is to take the Right of Allah SWT, to make Halal as Haram and Haram as Halal!

By voting, you fall into the trap of secularism.  Secularism states that God has sovereignty and rules only in heaven and inside the church, masjid, synagogue, temple etc. and Man has sovereignty on Earth.  The idea of mankind legislating for themselves can be summed up in the famous statement: the Rule is by the People, for the People, over the People.”

In Summary, the Congress or Senate is a body which legislates-makes LAWS; people are sovereign and the source of legislation, and Congressmen/women or Senators are chosen by the people to legislate-to make laws on their behalf.  Basically, they have the right to make haraam into halaal and vice versa!

The Islamic  verdict on the above:

1. Anybody who believes that almighty Allah (SWT) is not the only, exclusive Legislator and Commander is a disbeliever.

2. Anybody who believes in Almighty Allah (SWT) and associates anyone else with Him, contravening His being the sole legislator and commander is a Mushrik i.e. associates another as partner unto Allah (SWT).

3. Any Muslim who knowingly votes for a person who is a part of a legislative body, whether on the higher levels of Congress/Senate, or even on a city/town level, is an apostate-Murtaad.

4. Any Muslim who participates in elections to become a Congressman or Senator including on State or City level knowing the reality of Congress or Senate as a legislative House is an apostate.

5. Any Muslim who does not know the reality of Congress or Senate and then votes is sinful because he did not seek the divine ruling for his action before committing it. The Juristic Principle is that every action, verbal or physical, must be based on an Islamic ruling which is derived solely from the Qur’an and Sunnah.

6. Any Muslim who participates in voting for a candidate whether the candidate is basing his/her action on a misled so-called ‘opinion’ from a rationalist or secular clergyman has been misled and the issue must be explained to him/her. Believing that Allah (SWT) is the only legislator is a matter known from the Deen of Islam by necessity, therefore ignorance about it is not an excuse and he/she is therefore sinful.

7. The only excuse is for a person who is new Muslim or fully ignorant about what is known by necessity from the Deen of Islam due to the fact that he has grown up under kufr law and between non-Muslims. Those Muslims need the matter explained to them but if they continue to vote claiming that they have a different opinion from another person they are sinful.

As for the divine evidences for the above verdicts, they are derived from the fact that Allah (SWT) says: ‘They imitate the sayings of the disbelievers, Allah(SWT)’s curse be on them, how they are deluded away from the truth; They took their Rabbis and their Monks to be their Lords and Legislators besides Allah(SWT) and took the Messiah, the son of Mary, while they were commanded to worship, obey and follow none but one God/Allah; none has the right to be worshipped or followed and to legislate but he, praise and glory be to him from having the partners they associate with him.’30:31]

In addition, Allah (SWT) says in another clear-cut and explicit evidence that obeying any man-made system knowingly with consent for its source, different to Allah (SWT) is apostasy. For Allah (SWT) says;  ‘Or have they partners with Allah, who have legislated for them what Allah (SWT) has not decreed and had it not been for a decisive word the matter would have been judged between them and verily for the Polytheists and wrongdoers there is a painful torment’ [EMQ 42:21]

Therefore, whoever votes or follows any of those misguided legislators and gives them the vote enabling them to legislate has in fact chosen a Lord to Legislate for him and this is associating with almighty Allah SWT another legislator and commander.  One who does this has given up his belief in Allah SWT and committed shirk, the one crime for which Allah SWT deems there is no forgiveness!

Certainly, there is a reasonable amount of understanding for someone who is ignorant of the truth, or someone who does not realize he is committing shirk by voting. However, for the one who stands as a candidate, who wishes to take the right of Allah SWT as the Legislator and apply it to himself, what excuse does he have?  Can someone who calls people to vote, collects money for it, writes about it and distributes pamphlets, invites other congressmen and politicians to the Masaajid to speak on his behalf… can this person be called a Muslim after that?  How ironic is it that this so-called Muslim has no problem inviting the Senator or Councilman to the Masjid, but as soon as you mention the conflicts occurring in places such as Afghanistan, Pakistan and Palestine he immediately shuts you down and says, “Akhi, no politics in the Mosque.”  Then what exactly is the kaafir congressman doing there being showered with gifts, praises, and endorsements from you?

For one moment, push aside the Islamic viewpoint.  Many people claim that the benefit is too substantial NOT to vote.  If that’s the case, then ask yourself what exactly happened after Bush was voted out and Obama came to power.  Did things really change course?  Let us explore some examples.

 1)     If Bush’s policy was war, then Obama’s has been war on steroids.  Muslims expected that Obama would end the wars, when in fact he opened up more fronts and put Drone attacks into overdrive.

2)    The casualties of the wars enacted under Bush’s regime are laughable compared to Obama’s.  In fact, Obama can boast 5 times as many dead civilians as Bush on his CV since he came into office.

3)     The Patriot Act, which practically destroys any Constitutional principles, was enacted by Bush and RENEWED by Obama.  Doesn’t the fact that the kuffar can change the laws any time they want worry you as a Muslim?  They would willingly go against even their own Constitution (a document considered almost sacred) to push laws in order to oppress you.  America, Dear Muslim, is simply a more civilized, better organized dictatorship.  This is the person you wanted to vote for?

4)     Just like under Bush, under Obama anyone can be detained INDEFINITELY without trial.  You can be locked in prison without ever being told why, without any trial, and the key to your cell can be thrown away.  We have to give some credit to Obama, however.  Under Bush, Saddam Hussein was at least captured and put on trial, even though it was a kangaroo court.  Obama is more ruthless than Bush.  Under Obama, certain individuals (al-Awlaki—an AMERICAN CITIZEN, Osama bin Laden) were simply assassinated.  No trial, no charges, no jury, no “justice.”  Even by their own standards, they are hypocrites.

The point we are trying to make is that it simply does not matter who wins the election.  Whether it is Romney, Obama, or some other person, the policies and ideology will stay the same.  The same people who are in the Pentagon now have been working for decades and shaping long-term policy.  Do you think the bureaucrats and executives who orchestrated and organized policies for decades will allow someone to simply get voted in and change their establishment?  They are far less concerned with whoever is in office than the public.  Obama cannot change decades-long policy in 2, 4, or even 8 years.  Nor does he really want to. 

Aside from the fact that it is pure shirk to vote in these elections, consider the examples we provided and think about whether there actually was any benefit. How beneficial was it that there were two troop surges in Afghanistan so that American soldiers can continue their crimes against humanity?  How much benefit is there in being caught by a bullet from a drone?  Is there really benefit in living in fear here at home, wondering if you’ll be swept off the street and stashed into a prison?

 Did the Prophet PBUH care about benefit?  He could have easily deferred to the senators and congressmen of his time such as Abu Lahab, Abu Jahl, Omaya bin Khalaf and “voted” for the causes they espoused. The mushrikeen were offering him(SAW) women, gold, kingship and the keys to Mecca to stop establishing Islam.  . Instead, he(SAW) rejected all their offers wholeheartedly, choosing only Allah SWT as his Legislator and encouraging Islam. Today, we have the opposite: Muslims are beggars, giving up parts of Islam they deem inconvenient, rushing to  compromise and twist Islam in order to please the kuffar.  Allah SWT has completed our Deen for us, and given us a political, economic, judicial, social system completely independent of man-made ideologies such as democracy/capitalism.

In a society that is veering toward fascism, the only option we have as Muslims living in the West is to invite people to Islam through intellectual and political means, and bring about change by offering Islam as the only solution to the problems we face today.  Muslims do not realize that this Islam is unique as it offers a solution to the destitute situation that society finds itself in today.  Islam did not simply come for Muslims, or for a certain ethnicity or tribe, but it is a complete system of governance for Muslims AND non-Muslims.

If one needs to gain perspective on what is right and wrong, then one should not look any further than the divine laws encoded in the Shariah based on Quran and Sunnah.

Do the Muslims realize that the West already knows for itself that Capitalism is dying?  Do the Muslims realize that Islam is the only solution for the West?  By now, they should realize that Islam is the next dominating ideology.  Why would they adopt inferior ways of life such as Capitalism and Democracy when Allah SWT sent his Messenger PBUH with a complete way of life; Islam carries a social system, a political system, a punitive system, a judicial system, an economic system, a foreign policy… everything which makes a nation is encoded in the Shariah.  Even then, the Muslims look to man-made systems for guidance instead of the Quran and Sunnah-that is sad! Our attitude and purpose of Islam is clearly defined by Allah(SWT), and we have to submit to that without any ifs and buts!‘…Verily Allah sent the Messenger with the Deen of guidance and truth (Tawheed+Shariah) in order to dominate over all other Deens (i.e. religions; such as Christianity, Hinduism and Judaism and ideologies; such as capitalism and Communism) even if the idolaters dislike it…[EMQ 9:33]

ITS is an Islamic ideological and political organization which is working to establish Islam in its totality i.e. Tawheed+Shariah-Islamic system , Islamic way of life through an intellectual and a political struggle i.e. non-violent means!  Islam is the only solution and the way forward.  Learn how Islam can offer a solution to all of your personal problems as well as those that affect society.  We invite you to seek a better way of life and question the roots of your government.  We encourage you to seek alternative solutions to the problems facing society today.  Islam will eradicate poverty, Islam will bring true justice, and it will liberate society from the shackles of man-made law.

It’s the defining moment in the history of Islam like Badr:
Either you stand for Islam and your identity FIRMLY, or the kuffar will define Islam for you and you lose it completely.

REMEMBERING SABRA & SHATILA MASSACRE

 

September 16, 1982 was the day when thousands of Muslims in Palestine were massacred in the Shabra and Shatila refugee camps by the Israeli supporters Phalangist militia while the camps were surrounded by Zionist Israeli forces.

We just wanted to remind the Muslim Ummah not to forget the blood of their brothers and sisters that were spilt on this day 29 years ago by an enemy that still exists; namely the Zionist State of ISRAEL.
