Russia Persecutes Muslims of Tatarstan
Hizb ut Tahrir Wilayah Pakistan Protests outside Russian Consulate

Hizb ut Tahrir Wilayah Pakistan held a protest at Masjid Umar outside the Consulate of Russia in Pakistan's largest city, Karachi, home to over twenty million inhabitants. Hizb ut Tahrir Wilayah Pakistan condemns in the severest terms the brutal oppression by Russian security agencies of the Muslims of Tatarstan. These thugs have broken bones and tortured with electricity! The protesters carried a banner saying, "O Muslims of Tatarstan! The Khilafah "Caliphate" will soon liberate you from the persecution of Russian Oppressors."

Russia must know that such oppression will never stop the march of Islam. History is strewn with stories of the humiliating defeat of tyrants who dared to persecute the Muslims. Russia must further know that the great fear that haunts it today, the return of the Khilafah "Caliphate" in ash-Sham, is soon to be realized by the will of Allah (swt). And should Pakistan be honored by being the starting point of the Khilafah "Caliphate" first or not, the vast and mighty lands of the Muslims will be one under a righteous Khaleefah again soon inshaaAllah.

O Allah, Al-Jabbar, Al-Aziz, return the Khilafah "Caliphate" as a shield for the Muslims now! Then the oppressors will hold their heads in regret, hearts gripped in fear of the impending retribution for their crimes! At that time the oppressors will face a unified Muslim armed forces that will punish the tyrants and heal the hearts of the believers. Allah (swt) said,

[قَاتِلُوهُمْ يُعَذِّبْهُمُ اللَّهُ بِأَيْدِيكُمْ وَيُخْزِهِمْ وَيَنْصُرْكُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيَشْفِ صُدُورَ قَوْمٍ مُؤْمِنِينَ]

"Fight against them so that Allâh will punish them by your hands and disgrace them and give you victory over them and heal the breasts of a believing people," [Surah At-Tawba 9:14]

O Pakistan's Armed Forces! The friends of Shaytan have gathered in a war against the Muslims wherever they are found. It is time for you to turn the tide of humiliation to that of manifest victory, by granting the Nussrah to Hizb ut Tahrir for the return of the Khilafah "Caliphate", fearing Allah (swt) alone.

[إِنَّمَا ذَلِكُمْ الشَّيْطَانُ يُخَوِّفُ أَوْلِيَاءَهُ فَلاَ تَخَافُوهُمْ وَخَافُونِي إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ]

"It is only the Shaitan that causes you to fear from his (Shaytan's) friends, but do not fear them, and fear Me, if you are believers." [3:175]
