Statement of Hizb-ut Tahrir / Indonesia: Solidarity Act for Muslims in Rohingya
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
It is widely reported that Buddhist extremist groups and the Burmese regime suppressed and slaughtered Muslims in Rakhine or Arakan, Burma. The UN High Commissioner for Refugees, UNHCR, reported that the attacks which occurred since last June have killed more than 20,000 Muslims and displacing hundreds of thousands. International Amnesty also recognizes that the Muslims in Burma have become victims of Buddhist extremist groups and the Burmese authorities.
After decades of discrimination, Muslims in Rohingya who have been living in Burma for centuries are now stateless. The Burma regime continues its brutality; restricting Muslim activity, robbing their lands and depriving them of public services. These evil acts force them to flee to other countries like Bangladesh, Malaysia and Thailand. There are more than 500 thousand Muslims in Burma whom were 10 million, (20% of the population). According to UNHCR, about one million Muslims in Rohingya are now forced to live outside of Myanmar, but there is no third country willing to accept them permanently.
Through these policies, the Burma regime clearly intends to kill out Muslims (Muslim cleansing) as it is clearly understood from the murderous President of Myanmar's statement, Thein Sein "Myanmar will deport Rohingyans if there is a third country willing to accept them." For Thein Sein who acts cruelly to his own people, there are only two solutions for Muslims in Rohingya: living in camps or deportation.
What a sad reality! Muslims in Rohingya are an integral part of the 1.5 billion Muslims in the world. So, how could the great number of Muslims be unable to protect their persecuted brothers? Where is the respectability of this Ummah? After all that happened to Muslims in Pattani southern Thailand, Moro, South Filipinos, as well as in Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine demonstrate one thing: Muslims are weak and helpless after the shade of the Islamic world, the Caliphate, collapsed in 1924.
Therefore, Hizbut Tahrir-Indonesia together with Islamic organizations will conduct a series of solidarity actions throughout various cities in Indonesia starting Friday, 3rd of August 2012. We:
1-Condemnextremist Buddhists and the monks supporting the regime's acts of violence against Muslims, destroying their property, murdering them and evicting them from Rohingya. This outrage should never be performed by civilized men.
2-Demand that the Burmese regime to immediately halt the brutality and all policies to slaughter Muslims in Arakan. Burma authorities should recognize Muslims in Rohingya as legitimate citizens and give them their rights because they existed in these lands for centuries.
3-Demand that the Indonesia government as the leader of ASEAN to take effective action to stop this cruelty and protect the immigrants of Rohingya who enter Indonesia territory.
4-Call on Muslims to take action together as solidarity for the Muslims in Rohingya during this blessed Ramadhan, the month of Jihad (syahrul Jihad). Furthermore we call upon the Muslims to work and struggle together to re-establish the Islamic Caliphate. Only under the shade of Caliphate, the 1.5 billions Muslims can be strongly united, thus protecting their dignity wherever they are, including the dignity of Muslims in Rohingya. Thus, similar brutality will never recur. Inshaallah.
Hasbunallahu wa ni'mal wakiil, ni'mal mawla wa ni'man nashiir.
