STATEMENT of Hizb ut-Tahrir Indonesia On Innocence of Muslims : A Very Insulting Film on Prophet Muhammad SAW

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Again, Prophet Muhammad SAW is insulted. This time, the insult is done through a film entitled "Innocence of Muslims". The two-hour film portrays Prophet Muhammad as a deceiver, a weak masher who fond of sexually abusing children (a pedophile).

Sam Bacile (56), the film maker, involved 59 actors and 45 crews. According to the AP (12/9), Sam is a citizen of California, the United States (U.S.) an Israeli Jew. With the help of 100 Jewish donors, Sam managed to raise five million dollars to make the film of "Innocence of Muslims". In an interview with the media, Sam stated that he deliberately made the film. According to him, through this film, the weaknesses of Islam can be exposed to the world.

It is an insult to the Prophet Muhammad by the West for the umpteenth time. These insults show their hatred to the Prophet Muhammad and Islam. They always argue that the film making and the distribution of the insulting film are parts of freedom to create. But in fact, it is the freedom to do anything, including to discredit, humiliate, and harass the Muslims and the Prophet Muhammad.

The doctrine of this kind of freedom is in fact very subjective, meaning that it only applies to them. When the Muslim women in France are banned from wearing the hijab, the "freedom" that they always campaign is no longer heard. How could they freely insult the Prophet, while the Muslim women in France are not free to wear hijab? When the Muslims loudly demand the application of Islamic Sharia to replace the already corrupted Capitalism, they accuse the Muslims as the extremists and the radicals. How could they freely express themselves, while the Muslims are not allowed to choose their own sharia for their country?


In this regard, the Hizb ut-Tahrir Indonesia staged a protest in Jakarta and other cities (in front of the U.S. embassy) and states:

1. Condemn the making and distribution of the film which is very much insulting the honor of the Prophet Muhammad. Similarly, condemn the U.S. government who keeps silent about this filmmaking and distribution to the public, as an act of barbarism that can not go unpunished. Prophet Muhammad, whose life was spent to spread the message of Islam, showed the human beings from the darkness into the light of monotheism, a noble figure, whose dignity is honored by more than 1.5 billion Muslims around the world. Therefore, his honor must be protected and defended by all Muslims with all power.

2. Demand to punish the perpetrators. If they are Muslims, they must be put to death. If they are from among the Jews or Christians, they also must be put to death unless they repent and convert to Islam. Thus, this is the provision of Islamic law as stated by Imam Syaukani, Imam Shafi'i and Imam Hambali.

3. Call upon all Muslims to work together to defend the honor of the Prophet Muhammad and strongly reject any un-Islamic ideology or doctrines such as human rights, secularism and liberalism, and earnestly struggle for Khilafah "Caliphate". Because it is the Khilafah "Caliphate" which will significantly stop all kinds of insults, and protect the honor of Islam and Muslims, as had been demonstrated by the Caliph Abdul Hamid II who punished France and England who wanted to perform a play of Voltaire, which insulted the Prophet Muhammad. Due to the firmness of the Caliph, who would wage a jihad against England if they insisted to perform the play, they eventually canceled their plan so that the honor of the Prophet Muhammad be protected.

Hasbunallah ni'mal wakiil wa, wa ni'man nashiir ni'mal mawla.
