Truth Seeker Posted October 3, 2004 Is eighty-three years not long enough for the Muslims to realise that only the re-establishment of the Khilafah will restore their glory? ! On today's date, 28 Rajab, in the year 1342 (corresponding to 3 March 1924), on a Monday at daybreak, Mustafa Kamal "Ataturk" the enemy of Allah, His Messenger (sallAllaho alayhi wa sallam) and the Believers abolished the Islamic Khilafah in Istanbul, besieged the Khaleefah and banished him into exile. This ugly and horrible deed was the price Mustafa Kamal paid to Britain for its acceptance of him as the ruler of Turkey, hoisted over the Muslims as a servant for the Kafir colonialists. Since that day, Secular Turkey has been in continuous decline, to the point that it now stands at the doorstep of Europe cap in hand, begging to be accepted into the European Community, having once, under the Khilafah, knocked with dignity at the doors of Europe, opening lands and spreading Islam throughout the world. As for the other Muslim lands of the Khilafah state, they were torn apart into pieces and steeped in humiliation and disgrace, just as secular Turkey was. All the Muslim countries became insignificant, not regarded as amounting to anything, almost as if they did not exist at all. If anyone of vision and awareness examined the reason for this change, he would realise that the main, indeed only, reason was the abolition of the Khilafah. And how the Ummah has suffered after the destruction of the Khilafah is a vivid reality, denied only by a person who is so blind in his perception that it is as if he can no longer distinguish between light and darkness. The Jews dared to occupy that pure and blessed land from which RasulAllah (sallAllaho alayhi wa sallam) made Miraj and which was the first Qiblah of Islam. The armies of the Kafir colonialists, particularly America, established themselves upon the Arabian Peninsula, even though Islam forbids the settling of Kuffar upon it. And occupation afflicted other Muslim lands, before and after the occupation of Palestine: Cyprus, Kashmir, Chechnya, Afghanistan, Iraq, South Sudan and other regions besides … honour was violated, sanctities profaned, treasures plundered and sacred, pure Muslim blood was shed day and night in several Muslim lands. As for the rulers in the Muslim lands, they merely counted the martyrs and wounded, as if they were watching events in a far-off land, detached from it all and regardless of its magnitude. All of these calamities, and others besides, afflicted the Muslim lands after the abolition of the Khilafah and clearly demonstrate the grave disaster of the Muslims losing the Khilafah. O Muslims! The Khilafah is the source of your glory and the way to your strength and unity. It is your vital issue, through which all in the heavens and the earth will envy you and without which you will be as if you are alive, but in reality you will be like the dead. Not only is it a great Fard (obligation), it is the crowning obligation because the Islamic rulings are implemented through it and Muslims and Islam are glorified by it. This is what the Sahabah (radiAllaho an hum) knew from RasulAllah (sallAllaho alayhi wa sallam) and acted accordingly. And this is what you also must know and act according to: When RasulAllah (sallAllaho alayhi wa sallam) passed on, the Great Sahabah (radiAllaho an hum) became engaged in appointing a Khaleefah to rule after RasulAllah (sallAllaho alayhi wa sallam). They (radiAllaho an hum) did not bury RasulAllah (sallAllaho alayhi wa sallam) until the Bay'ah (Pledge of Allegiance) was contracted to Abu Bakr (radiAllaho an), because they knew the importance of the Khilafah for Islam and the glory of Muslims. As for you, O Muslims, eighty-three years have passed since the abolition of the Khilafah, yet neither were you moved by its abolition and nor did you shed a tear for the pitiful state in which you found yourselves. Omar (radiAllaho an) ordered the killing of the Great Sahabah- Ali, Uthman, AbdurRahman, Saad, Talha and Az-Zubayr (radiAllaho an hum) if they failed to agree upon pledging allegiance to a Khaleefah from amongst them, within three days and no more. Omar (radiAllaho an) ordered their killing, in spite of their status in the Ummah, because he (radiAllaho an) knew, as they (radiAllaho an hum) also knew that establishing the allegiance to the Khaleefah is a great obligation, glory and strength and that not establishing it is a great shame, humiliation and disgrace. As for you, O Muslim, three days have passed over and over, until eighty-three years passed since the destruction of the Khilafah, calling to you to end your disgrace through it and restore your glory by it, so that you may again become the dynamic, honourable Ummah as Allah has described you: ÙƒÙنْتÙمْ خَيْرَ Ø£Ùمَّة٠أÙخْرÙجَتْ Ù„Ùلنَّاس٠تَأْمÙرÙونَ بÙالْمَعْرÙÙˆÙ٠وَتَنْهَوْنَ عَنْ الْمÙنكَر٠وَتÙؤْمÙÙ†Ùونَ بÙاللَّه٠"You are the best Ummah brought forwards to humankind, enjoining what is good and forbidding what is evil and believing in Allah." [TMQ Aali Imran: 110] O Muslims! We are assured that the Khilafah is coming back by Allah's leave, and that it is closer than most people think. However, at the same time, we know very well that angels will not descend to bring it, rather a persevering, truthful and sincere effort must be made, by those who desire no reward save the pleasure of Allah. You know that you have brothers amongst you, who believe in Allah, who have been rewarded with guidance through Allah's mercy and who work day and night to resume the Islamic way of life through re-establishing the Khilafah Rashida. They make their way through the crowds, exposing themselves to arrest, imprisonment and even torture leading to martyrdom, so as to accomplish this great obligation, to raise the Ummah after its fall and to restore it to its former splendour and glory. They are like candles that burn, illuminating the darkness with their light. So will you not work with them so as to earn the favour that Allah grants the sincere pious men? If you abstain or were prevented from working, will you not at least support and back them so that Allah may grant you mercy and by Allah's will, your good actions will erase your bad deeds? Outside of these two matters there is no good in this path: either to work for the sake of implementing the truth and glorifying the Deen of Allah by establishing the Khilafah Rashida or to be supporters and back them, to earn from the reward they will get and to be supported by the support they will get. وَلَيَنصÙرَنَّ اللَّه٠مَنْ يَنصÙرÙه٠إÙنَّ اللَّهَ Ù„ÙŽÙ‚ÙŽÙˆÙيٌّ عَزÙيزٌ "Allah will certainly support those who support His cause, for indeed Allah is full of strength, exalted in might and able to enforce His will." [TMQ Al-Hajj: 40] As for those who stand as obstacles before the Khilafah and fight it for their benefit and position and to satisfy their Kafir colonialist masters, their end is nigh, their thrones will diminish and they will leave their authority humiliated, by Allah's will, their plight being described in the noble Qur'an: كَمْ تَرَكÙوا Ù…Ùنْ جَنَّات٠وَعÙÙŠÙونÙ. وَزÙرÙوع٠وَمَقَام٠كَرÙيمÙ. وَنَعْمَة٠كَانÙوا ÙÙيهَا ÙَاكÙÙ‡Ùينَ. ÙƒÙŽØ°ÙŽÙ„ÙÙƒÙŽ وَأَوْرَثْنَاهَا قَوْمًا آخَرÙينَ. Ùَمَا بَكَتْ عَلَيْهÙم٠السَّمَاء٠وَالأَرْض٠وَمَا كَانÙوا Ù…ÙنظَرÙينَ "How many were the gardens and springs they left behind ; And corn-fields and noble buildings ; And pleasant things, wherein they had taken such delight, thus was their end ; And we made other people as inheritors of all that they had ; And neither heaven nor earth will shed a tear over them, nor were they given a respite ever again."
