Press Release
The Bloodthirsty Karimov Regime's Thirst is Not Quenched of the Blood of Muslims!
(Translated)

The year 2013 was full of grief and sorrow for the Muslims in Uzbekistan, due to the many martyrs who passed away in the prisons of Karimov, the criminal Jew. Most of the martyrs were Shabab of Hizb ut Tahrir, who were arrested in the period between 1999 and 2000. The mercenaries of Karimov and his thugs tortured these Shabab, since the beginning of their detention, a brutal torture that reveals the extent of hatred against Islam and Muslims, leading in many cases to martyrdom, for nothing other than that they said "Our Lord is Allah", and remained on the right course as He commanded them, working diligently and faithfully for glorifying their Deen and the rise of Muslims. Amongst the martyrs are scientists and thinkers.

The following are some of the names of these martyrs:

Those criminal tyrant rulers will be severely judged by Allah with a grim account; they are the ones who Allah described them in the Holy Qur'an:

(وَقِفُوهُمْ إِنَّهُم مَّسْئُولُونَ)

"And stop them; indeed, they are to be questioned". [As-Saffat: 24]

(سَيُصِيبُ الَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا صَغَارٌ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَعَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌ بِمَا كَانُوا يَمْكُرُونَ)

"There will afflict those who committed crimes debasement before Allah and severe punishment for what they used to conspire". {Al-An'am: 124}

O Muslims :

These martyrs May Allah's mercy be upon them, are the ones who we were able to obtain some information about them, and there are many who we could not write to you about. The bloodthirsty Karimov regime killed them and buried their bodies without informing their relatives and families in order to hide the effects of his crimes. The Kuffar behave as such in order to hide their crimes from people for they are oblivious or heedless that Allah is watching them and He knows the secret and concealed, and that He will expose them in this world, and on the Day of Judgment publically in front of the witnesses.

O Allah we ask you a sooner victory to Islam and Muslims, and to hasten the resumption of the Islamic way of life, and the establishment of the Khilafah "Caliphate". We ask you to give us an urgent allegiance to the Ameer of Muslims, who will avenge the Muslims in Uzbekistan and elsewhere from those who have oppressed them, and will secure the rights of the orphans and widows who are demanding the blood of their relatives from the killers and criminals.

Ameen! Ameen! Ameen!
