Press Release
Arrests of Members of Hizb ut Tahrir from Mosques in Port Sudan Will Not Deter them from Exposing the Conspiracies of the Rulers Against the Ummah
(Translated)

After the distribution of a leaflet issued by Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah Sudan, entitled: “Privatization of the Port of Southern Port Sudan is a Betrayal to the Country’s Security and Negligence to its Resources and Displacement of the People”, by members of Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah of Sudan in Port Sudan city, the security authorities in the city of Port Sudan arrested a group of Hizb ut Tahrir members from inside the houses of Allah in the city, then released them, and arrested Brother Shareq Yousef Al-Barbari from the Grand Mosque, who was taken to the security offices, then to the police station to file a notice...

The leaflet for which the members of Hizb ut Tahrir were arrested, listed facts that the Ummah had to know and comprehend, considering that the port is one of the indispensable public facilities. It is the only container port in the country. This port is a public property that is forbidden for the state to own, as it is forbidden for individuals and companies to own, the port must remain a public property, which benefits all citizens of the State and is administered by the State for the benefit of the Community. This is what was mentioned in the leaflet, in addition to some other facts, including the direct impact of the wrongful contract concluded with the Philippine company, which is to undermine the security of the country by handing over the country's gateway to these transnational companies, whose goal is to make profits only, which leads to the displacement of the workers at the port, whose livelihood is made in this port by the will of Allah (swt).

The leaflet then concluded with a call to the people of Sudan, mentioning: “Our people in Sudan: The government does not give any weigh to the Shari’ah provisions, it is the one that destroyed the country, divided it, and displaced the people, causing misery, poverty and hardship of living to spread. This government moves from one crime to another, and nothing will stop this injustice and abandonment except the Shari’ah of Islam, applied by the Khilafah Rashidah State on the method of the Prophet, so be among those working for it.”

This action by Hizb ut Tahrir was worthy of the government to reconsider the terrible crime it committed against the people and the country, not to arrest the members of the party and to open malicious reports against those who sold their souls for the sake of delivering the truth and establishing the State of Islam, Khilafah Rashidah on the method of the Prophethood.

Release Brother Shareq Al-Barbari now, and apologize to him.

“And do not think that Allah is unaware of what the evildoers are doing: He but grants them respite until the Day when their eyes will stare in horror” [Surat Ibrahim:42]
