They Burned Everything whilst the Muslim Armies Remained in their Barracks. It is Upon the Muslim Armies to be on the Fronts, Fighting with the Enemy and Repelling its Force

News:

’Israel’ sent hundreds more troops to the occupied West Bank on Monday 27 January 2023, a day after a Palestinian gunman killed two ‘Israelis’ and settlers rampaged through a Palestinian town, torching homes and vehicles in the worst such violence in decades... Sunday’s violence has drawn condemnation from the international community. U.S. State Department spokesman Ned Price said the shooting attack and the rampage “underscore the imperative to immediately de-escalate tensions in words and deeds.” … The violence erupted shortly after the Jordanian government hosted talks at the Red Sea resort of Aqaba aimed at de-escalating tensions ahead of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan… The international community overwhelmingly considers the Jewish entity’s settlements as illegal and obstacles to peace. So far this year, 62 Palestinians, about half of them affiliated with armed groups, have been killed by the Jewish entity’s troops and civilians. In the same period, 14 Jews have been killed in Palestinian attacks. Last year was the deadliest for the Palestinians in the West Bank and east Jerusalem since 2004, according to figures by the Jewish rights group B’Tselem. Nearly 150 Palestinians were killed in those areas.” [The Independent]

Comment:

The land that is desecrated by the heinous crimes of occupation forces is the land of Isra and Mi’raj of the Messenger of Allah (saw). It is the land of the Resurrection (المحشر) and the Gathering (المنشر). It the land that the Creator of the heavens and the earth blessed, about which He (swt) said,

[سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي أَسْرَى بِعَبْدِهِ لَيْلًا مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْأَقْصَى الَّذِي بَارَكْنَا حَوْلَهُ]

“Glory be to the One Who took His servant by night from the Sacred Mosque to Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa whose surroundings We have blessed.” [TMQ Surah Al-Isra’ 17:1]. The pure blood that is shed in this blessed land is the blood of Muslims. It is shed in a land about whom the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, «لا تَزالُ طائفةٌ مِن أُمَّتي على الدِّينِ ظاهرينَ لعَدوِّهم قاهرينَ، لا يَضُرُّهم مَن خالَفَهم، إلَّا ما أصابَهم مِن لَأواءَ حتى يَأتيَهم أمْرُ اللهِ وهم كذلك، قالوا يا رسولَ اللهِ، وأين هم؟ قال ببَيتِ المَقدِسِ وأكنافِ بَيتِ المَقدِسِ» “A group of my Ummah will remain on the Deen, overpowering their enemies. Those who oppose them will not harm them except what afflicts them in terms of adversity. This is until Allah’s command comes to them, and they are in that state. They said, O Messenger of Allah, where are they? He said in Jerusalem and the precincts of Jerusalem.”[Ahmed]. So our concern here is about a blessed place, and about blood that is of the highest sanctity, because it is Muslim blood. It is the blood of a people who were praised by the Messenger (saw) of humanity, Muhammad (saw). So, it is the revelation that increased the honor of that blood. Thus is the magnitude of the calamity that befell Muslims.

The calamity upon the Muslims did not arise because of their mortal enemies, who do not observe regarding a believer anything of protection or covenant. Those enemies are the Jews, with whom Allah (swt) is angry. Whoever Allah’s wrath falls upon, there is no good that can be hoped for them, whilst there is no hope to be held within them. Whoever thinks good of them is undoubtedly one of them. Those who dispute are refuted by both divine text and practical reason. Those disputers are the rulers of the Muslims. They empowered the Jews and normalized with them. It is not believed that this was undertaken by any but those who were with the Jews, both in heart and soul.

Instead, our misfortune arose because of those in whom we have hope for good. They are from the Ummah of Islam. They have the ability and Nussrah to support the Blessed Land and its people. However, they do not move a finger. Perhaps the earthquakes, the widespread poverty in Muslim countries, the injustice, the various tragedies and strife that afflicted the Ummah, which did not spare anyone from their strikes, are all early warning messages to the ones of reason, before Allah (swt) sends His wrath and destruction upon us. It was narrated by Imam Malik in his Muwatta, أَنَّ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَهْلِكُ وَفِينَا الصَّالِحُونَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم:‏ «نَعَمْ إِذَا كَثُرَ الْخَبَثُ»  “that Umm Salama, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, ‘Messenger of Allah! Shall we be destroyed while there are people who are righteous among us?’ The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, ‘Yes, if there is much wickedness.’” Such trials are sent by Allah (swt) so that those who are sleeping must awake. They are sent so the responsible one realizes his obligations and the capable one realizes his responsibilities. So he first supports himself by lifting the sin from himself, through his silence on falsehood. Thereafter, he lifts the sin by supporting the Blessed Land and its people.

Many of the sincere people of Power and Protection, in the Muslim armies, think that fingers do not point at them. They think that by living away from people’s eyes in private military cantonments, in Lahore, Karachi, Heliopolis of Egypt, Dhaka and Anatolia and so on, they are running away from the blame or the people’s scrutiny. However, they cannot overlook the fact that no matter how far they are from the people’s eyes, the Sight of Allah (swt) is over them. His angels record every moment that they spend without fulfilling their obligation. Therefore, those who are sincere must be reminded of their obligation. They must be reminded that they will meet their Lord (swt) and He will hold them accountable for wronging themselves and their people. This is because even if they survive an earthquake, disease or any pandemic in this world, they will not be saved from the accounting on the Day of Judgment. No weapon-bearing warrior in the armies of the Islamic world will be saved, except by unloading all of his ammunition into the bosoms of the regimes that sit on the chest of this Ummah, whilst colluding with our enemies. The officers of the Muslim armies will not be saved except by their granting of Nussrah to the Hizb that seeks to establish the Khilafah (Caliphate) on the Method of the Prophethood. That Hizb is the one that will mobilize the armies to support the destination of the Isra’a of the Messenger of Allah (swt). That Hizb is Hizb ut Tahrir, whom you know, whilst it knows you. So grant it your Nussrah, so that you will be saved and be successful.

[يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَجِيبُوا لِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ لِمَا يُحْيِيكُمْ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَحُولُ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَقَلْبِهِ وَأَنَّهُ إِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ * وَاتَّقُوا فِتْنَةً لَا تُصِيبَنَّ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا مِنْكُمْ خَاصَّةً وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ]

“O believers! Respond to Allah and His Messenger when He calls you to that which gives you life. And know that Allah stands between a person and their heart, and that to Him you will all be gathered. (24) Beware of a trial that will not only affect the wrongdoers among you. And know that Allah is severe in punishment.” [TMQ Surah al-Anfal 8:24-25]
