Press Release
Every Inch of Palestine's Land Belongs to Islam, and It will Remain for Islam!
(Translated)

It has been about 500 days since the start of the genocide committed by the usurping Jewish entity in Gaza, and the Arab states, as well as Iran and Turkiye, have not taken any actual steps to stop it, only sufficing with condemnation. While they called on Muslims to boycott the entity, their trade continued with it. In fact, they even prevented humanitarian aid from entering the besieged Gaza, sentencing two million Muslims to death by starvation. Those who ignored the calls for action from Muslims, who have filled the squares for 15 months, hosted former U.S. Secretary of State Blinken in their palaces multiple times and listened to America's instructions. They kept the Muslim armies locked in their barracks, left their weapons to rust in their storage, and placed their hopes for peace and stability in the Middle East on American presidents.

While former U.S. President Biden unconditionally supported the Jewish entity militarily, politically, and economically, the new president, Trump, made arrogant statements about Gaza as soon as he took office. In his meeting with the murderer Netanyahu, he said he would completely evacuate Gaza, that he wanted to demolish all its buildings, and that he would turn it into a tourist destination using Gulf States' money. The insolent man went even further, setting Saturday, February 15, as a date. And he said: "all hell will break loose if all the… hostages are not released."

And we, in Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah Turkiye, held demonstrations and issued press statements in 16 cities across Turkey in response to Trump’s insolent statements, under the title "Who Will Stop Trump?!" On Saturday, February 15, we held press conferences in front of the U.S. consulate in Istanbul, as well as in Adana, Diyarbakir, Mersin, and Kahramanmaraş. On Sunday, February 16, we went to the U.S. embassy in Ankara and held press conferences in Aksaray, Antalya, Aydın, Bursa, Batman, Düzce, Hatay, Izmir, Şanlıurfa, and Yalova.

In our press statements, we addressed the officials and said:

"O rulers! Is there not even a single grain of faith left in your hearts? Have the feelings of faith and jihad dried up within you? Is there not among you a man who will protect the lands, lives, honor, and wealth of the Muslims? Is there no one among you who turns away from this world and aspires for the Akhirah and the pleasure of Allah, and who will put an end to Trump? O rulers! Beware of fearing America, for it is collapsing both materially and morally. Beware of hiding behind America, for it is suffering from a severe economic crisis and cannot even cover its own deficit—so how can it cover yours? It will never be able to! While America claims to be withdrawing into itself and working for the interests of its own people, it attacks left and right due to its colonial nature. So beware of dealing with this state that has exceeded all bounds!"

We also addressed the arrogant kafir Trump and said:

"O Trump! We know very well that you derive your boldness from the silence and cowardice of our leaders. But know this well and never forget it: You will never possess Gaza as long as the Islamic Ummah is alive. This is beyond the power of America and beyond the power of the rulers whom you have bought. No matter what you plan or do, every inch of the land of Palestine belongs to Islam and will remain for Islam! And when Allah wills it, and the Muslims establish the Khilafah Rashidah (Rightly Guided Caliphate), you will be uprooted from the Islamic lands that you occupy!"

May Allah reward all the Muslims who participated in our marches and press statements, as well as the scholars and opinion leaders who speak the truth for the sake of Gaza and Palestine, who hold the rulers accountable, and the groups and masses who have never removed Gaza from their agenda. May He reward the entire Ummah whose heart beats with Gaza, and all the Muslims who never stop caring about Gaza and whose hearts throb for its cause. We ask Allah, the Almighty, to grant the Muslims the establishment of the Khilafah Rashidah, which will rescue Gaza and Palestine from occupation, and to grant victory at the hands of a Khalifah Rashid (rightly guided caliph) and courageous leaders. Ameen...
