Press Release
Where to O Tunisia?
(Translated)

After the overwhelming demonstrations in the Tunisian street that pushed President Ben Ali to flee to Saudi Arabia, leaving behind a dark history infused with injustice. Hence there was not an evil that he did not leave of killing, imprisonment, torture, silencing the voices, starving the worshipers of Allah (swt), looting of wealth, looting of goods, and refusing to give the people of this Ummah even crumbs!! As for Islam, Ben Ali was a poisoned spearhead in the fight against Islam, he suspended the implementation of the Qur’an and the Sunnah, he fought against Islam and all that emanates from it, and encouraged the spread of vice and the atmosphere of corruption and corrupting. Regarding the Dawah carriers from the members of Hizb ut Tahrir and others, he perpetrated many injustices, and they still languish in Tunisia's terrible terrorist criminal prisons until now!! Tunisia and the world had not forgotten what Hizb ut Tahrir and others faced in the eighties of the last century, simply because they worked for the implementation of Islam as commanded and ordered by Allah (swt)…

But Now, Where to O Tunisia?

1. Will these tremendous demonstrations conclude with one of Ben Ali’s collaborators being handed over the head reins?!

2. Will matters conclude with the keeping of this oppressive man-made constitution, the articles of which were written and formulated in Europe?! Will it continue to be implemented?!

3. Will the blood that was spilt end up being in the interest and benefit of America and Europe once again?!

4. Will this tremendous wave of demonstrations be exploited and used to serve the interests of the local corrupt people and those who cause corruption... as what always happens following every incident or event like this within our Islamic world?!”

O rulers in the Muslim land!!

1. What you have witnessed today in Tunisia represents the true sentiments of the Islamic Ummah towards you!

2. The Islamic Ummah curses you night and day... and is waiting for the moment to punish you for your crimes, treason, terrorism and tyranny for Islam and its people!!

3. Sarkozy’s refusal to allow Ben Ali’s entry into France and ‘kicking him out’!! It shows your fate by your masters in America and Europe!! But will there be Al Saud to flee to!!

O Muslims:Between us and the return of Islam (Khilafah "Caliphate") is less than a fine hair!! The Dawah carriers from the members of Hizb ut Tahrir work night and day; O Muslims, follow the direction of the Dawah carriers, and know that Glory belongs to Allah and His Deen… Therefore be with Allah, you will achieve the glory and be successful:

﴿مَن كَانَ يُرِيدُ الْعِزَّةَ فَلِلَّهِ الْعِزَّةُ جَمِيعاً إِلَيْهِ يَصْعَدُ الْكَلِمُ الطَّيِّبُ وَالْعَمَلُ الصَّالِحُ يَرْفَعُهُ وَالَّذِينَ يَمْكُرُونَ السَّيِّئَاتِ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌ وَمَكْرُ أُوْلَئِكَ هُوَ يَبُورُ﴾

“Whoever desires honor [through power] - then to Allah belongs all honor. To Him ascends good speech, and righteous work raises it. But they who plot evil deeds will have a severe punishment, and the plotting of those - it will perish” [Fatir: 10]
