By Continuing to Exclude Islam from Life, the Suffering of the People of Jordan will be exacerbated, and their Livelihood will become more miserable

(Translated)

After the National Assembly (Majlis al-Ummah), both the Senate and the Representatives houses, betrayed the people of Jordan, conspired against them and fulfilled the compliance and the submission of the regime's government to the dictates and recipes of the World Bank, by its sinful adoption of the General Budget Law of 2018, the regime in Jordan began to implement its corrupt, absurd and coercive policies and economic procedures by imposing taxation and raise prices. The latest of which was the entry into force of the decision to raise the prices of bread starting 27/1/2018 morning, not caring for the difficult conditions of the people and the situation of poverty and destitution that they live in due to its accumulated absurd policies, and its futile procedures and treatments.

O Muslims in Jordan:

Your aggravated suffering and your growing misery are nothing but symptoms of the absence of Islam from your life, and certainly they have no solution except in the system of Islam, which Allah has approved it for you as a way of life and a method of living by applying its provisions in all walks of life

﴿الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الإِسْلاَمَ دِينًا﴾

“This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion.” [al-Maida: 3]

Otherwise, your suffering will get worse while you are looking on. All solutions other than Islam are absurd and futile solutions that accelerate the drowning and loss. And know that the issue in Jordan is fundamentally a method corruption and a corruption in the system, and not just imposing taxes and raising prices.

﴿أَفَحُكْمَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يَبْغُونَ وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ اللَّهِ حُكْمًا لِّقَوْمٍ يُوقِنُونَ﴾

“Do they then seek after a judgment of (the Days of) Ignorance? But who, for a people whose faith is assured, can give better judgment than Allah?”[al-Maida: 50]

The regime, its successive governments and councils do not take the system of Islam as a way of life. They are keen to continue excluding its rulings from the reality of people's lives. They adopt secularism - separating religion from life - as a way and a system of life and a creed in governance, economy and social life, leading to the political, economic and cultural subordination to the Kafir colonizer, where the conspiracy is on the Ummah and its issues, its present and its future. They gained power over the necks of the people, strengthening by the colonizer, and they became sophisticated in humiliating them, and in the industry of vice, corruption, injustice, poverty, misery and distress. The corrupt capitalist economy system that the junta applies to us is but the product of this secular Kafir doctrine that has ruined and is corrupting all aspects of our lives with premeditation and planning. Thus, political, administrative and financial corruption was officially sponsored where it gripped all joints of the state, and the system of criminality and corruption of the influential and politicians who looted public and private funds became in control of the fate of the country and the people. So, they wasted the dignity of the people of the country and humiliated them, depriving them of the benefit of their immense riches, and making themselves guardians for the interest of the colonial Kafir. They burdened the people in Jordan with indebtedness that reached shocking astronomical figures exceeding $35 billion and obeyed the recommendations of the World Bank - the international sponsor of the system of crime and corruption - imposing taxes, raising prices and creating unemployment with a rate of more than 20 per cent. So, poverty aggravated, the number of poor and destitute increased, the rate of crime rose, and new crimes have emerged such as suicide, armed robbery against people's money, and organized gangs of thugs that impose royalties on traders and investors.
