Answer to the Axis in Syria Involved in the Struggle to the question by Alfateh Al-Jadeed
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Question:
Assalamu alaikum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuhu,
To our dear Ameer, is this page specific to Fiqhi matters? If it is not, then I have the following question:
I have noticed in the process of the on-going war in the land of Ash-Shaam (greater Syria) that there exists a number of regional axis in addition to the axis of two main states.
1) The Saudi axis and the key work in which Sheikh Al-'Ar'oor and he has for example the Liwaa Al-Islaam (brigade) in Dumaa and he was in the act of forming the joint military command with Tayfoor (of the Muslim brotherhood).
2) The Qatari axis: In addition to containing the Syrian National Alliance it has worked as an obstacle from the beginning to the national council and has supported the national coordination (council) and has therefore adopted to support the Syrian Liberation front. It has more than one key the most significant of which is Azmi Bashaarah.
3) The Turkish axis: It is dedicated to stabilizing the fragile internal scales of balance, its eye is on the Kurdish issue firstly and then democracy in Syria secondly and it represents the axis maintaining the international borders and American policy.
4) The Jordanian axis: It appears that it is in clear opposition to the Turkish axis. This is because there has been many attempts to form what has been termed a 'National Army' in Jordan however Turkey and America have caused it to fail through their communications with specific army officers including from them Mustafa Ash-Sheikh (this is in spite of the continual presence with the American intelligence agencies and defence department in meetings held in Jordon).
5) The Kuwait axis: By way of Islamic organizations and people: They have formed mainly under the title of 'Ahraar Ash-Shaam' (Syrian Rebels) and they worked to win over many parties particularly in Ash-Shaam.
And on the international level: you have the American Axis and then the British and French axis. And all of this is related to the opposition.
And the question is: What is the form that the on-going conflict is taking? And what is the shape of the region in terms of allegiance? And what are the main axis in the struggle? And what is the projected solution that each party wishes to achieve?
Jazaakallahu Khairan.
Answer:
To Al-Fateh Al-Jadeed:
Wa alaikum assalam wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuhu,
You have asked whether this page is for political, intellectual or Fiqhi matters...
Dear brother, this page is for the purpose of all goodness (khair) that can be gained through this communication and as such no question from any topic from amongst the topics that hold goodness is prevented InshaAllah.
As for your question related to the axes that are involved in the Syrian struggle, then the issue is explained as follows:
1) The effective political influence since the era of Hafiz and Bashar is the American influence and this regime was an accessory to accomplish the American interests in the region and a guardian for the security of the Jewish entity and not only in regards to what was occupied in 1948 but also in regards to the Golan that was occupied in 1967.
2) When the people's popular movement occurred in Syria and escalated, thus Bashar became incapable of resuming matters as they were prior, America realized that its agent's rule was collapsing and its priority became how to guarantee the next agent replacement. So it seriously worked and strove, which resulted in the establishment of the Syrian National Council... However it was unable to establish roots for these councils internally and began to fear that the revolutionaries would be able to topple the tyrant before an alternative had been developed and as a result, a power would emerge that is not aligned to America.
3) So it began to give one grace period followed by another and another to Bashar with fruitless non-decisive projects via the Arab league and United Nations. So it formed a monitoring committee that was unable to even protect themselves, then (international/regional) meetings one following another here and there which came to know decisions and merely gave more time for it to sell their foreign manufactured opposition group so that domestically the people would accept them as rulers.
4) What surprised America was that Islamic sentiments dominated the internal situation, whether this was embodied by those who held awareness of the Islamic thoughts and its ruling or those who were not aware. America was also shaken by the masses' calls for the establishment of the Khilafah "Caliphate" whilst the secular voices were almost completely lost despite the extensive efforts of the media to focus on them!
5) This setting has struck fear in to the heart of America and its allies and they fear that matters will slip out of their hands and as such they have began to focus on three matters or areas:
First: Giving the green light to Bashar to kill and oppress in the greatest manner possible so as to pressure the people inside Syria to accept America's outcomes outside Syria, thereafter injecting these puppets to establish a secular civil rule in Syria i.e. a change of faces whilst the main foundations of the regime remain intact.
Secondly: Then if they are unable to successfully peddle their manufactured opposition by using the massacres of Bashar as leverage then it is expected that they will resort to international intervention to bring its chosen government and excuses and arguments for this theatre will be raised when the time necessitates. However due to the large number of its problems; and its internal and foreign crises it has placed the intervention to the back of its projected plans. And it will not resort to it unless the first plan mentioned above has failed.
Thirdly: During this period, country will have reached destruction to such a level that even if Islam was able to triumph over the rule in Syria then it would be a land which has been destroyed and ruined in which America and its allies will assume that the Ummah will despair and abstain from revival and production. However America and all of the enemies of Islam do not realize the greatness of this Ummah because within it are the toughest of men who will build the land in spite of the oppressors, who will increase agriculture and livestock despite the plots of the hypocrites. And this Ummah has confronted their likes from before: The crusaders and the Tartars who spread corruption, death and destruction throughout the lands and despite this the Ummah overpowered them and banished their evil that they became nothing but a trace as if they had never existed before whilst the Ummah was renewed, destroying its enemies and struck them in ways that they could not account for, restoring the Ummah as the best from humanity.
(كُنْتُمْ خَيْرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخْرِجَتْ لِلنَّاسِ تَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَتُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَلَوْ آمَنَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُمْ مِنْهُمُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَأَكْثَرُهُمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ). "You are the best nation produced [as an example] for mankind. You enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and believe in Allah. If only the People of the Scripture had believed, it would have been better for them. Among them are believers, but most of them are defiantly disobedient." [Aali 'Imraan: 110]
6) This is in regards to America... as for Russia, Turkey, Iran and its allies in Lebanon; these represent the front lines of America providing Bashar with weapons and support. They fire up the stage and cool it in accordance to American plans. It is within this context that the last meeting between the American secretary of state and Russian foreign minister, which was for ‘passing time' and closer to jargon than the making of decisions.
7) As for Europe, it is attempting to "make trouble" through its agents and in particular Qatar and Jordan knowing that America does not give them any weight leaving Europe to trail behind its authority. So after American officials went to Russia and held their meetings regarding Syria thus neglecting and side-lining the European role! The British Prime Minister travelled to Russia tracking the American steps to see if there is anything that he can explore to ‘save face' as if Britain has a role in this issue. The position of France is no different from that except that the sounds coming from France are loud shouts while Britain's low sounds are of deceit and slyness whilst the result is one and the same in terms of neither having an effective role in Syria.
8) What remains to be discussed is the axis of the Ummah and the movement inside Syria which is as follows:
- The minority captivated with the western culture, imprinted with its thoughts and concepts, saying what they say and they call for a secular democratic state which separates the Deen from life's affairs.
- Then there is another group which is greater in number than this minority and carries more weight. They are Muslims whose eyes are covered, they love Islam and want the Khilafah "Caliphate" yearning for the flag of the Messenger (saw). However they do not openly declare that which they love and want out of fear of provoking the western colonial states and they do not raise the flag of Islam out of fear of instigating nationalist counter claims.
- The group that calls for Islamic ruling (Hukm Islammi) is divided into two groups:
The first group that utilizes material actions (i.e. armed struggle) and calls for the rule of Islam however this group does not possess the correct and complete awareness of the Islamic thoughts and its rules and their application upon the current realities, etc.
And a group that is honest and sincere who want the Islamic rule, the rightly guided Khilafah "Caliphate", in accordance to the methodology that the Messenger of Allah sallalahu alaihi wassalam proceeded with and so they seek the Nusrah from its people...
My dear brother, in all of our actions we adhere to the method of the Messenger sallalahu alaihi wassalam and we draw the straight line against the crooked. We reveal the Haqq and insist upon it not only in Al-Shaam but there are actions that we execute in other regions and in particular in those lands neighbouring Ash-Shaam. InshaAllah these actions that have been witnessed and we ask Allah (swt) to assist us and grant us Tawfeeq.
In conclusion, America and its allies are preparing deals to guarantee the welfare of the tyrannical rule and to replace grim faces with those which are darker whilst the foundations of the secular republican system remains standing. They exert their efforts to delay the coming rule of Islam in Ash-Shaam; as the rule of Islam signifies the perish of the Kuffar and hypocrites along with their followers and cronies. Therefore it is obligatory upon the Ummah to not allow them to achieve their evil goals thereby to grasp onto the Haqq and pledge to Allah that they will never accept any alternative to the Khilafah "Caliphate" that they will not succumb to the manufacturing of the enemies of Islam in the form of a transitional or temporary government. Since, they are governments that sing their praise and conspire against Islam and the Muslims just like the Kafir colonialists and hypocrites. So no National Council that came first, no Syrian alliance that came after and no Hito for the future will bring any goodness to this Ummah as they are all upon the methodology of America and its allies.
Your brother,
Ata Bin Khalil Abu Al-Rashtah
