Niger Delta

Militants from the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) patrol the creeks of Bonny river near the LNG plant in Bonny on the oil rich Niger delta region July 18, 2008. The Nigerian government said on Thursday it would set up a committee of Niger Delta leaders to propose recommendations on ending violence in the oil-producing region so that long-awaited peace talks can take place.

Prepare An Answer For The Question!

By the martyred Shaykh, ‘Abdull?h Ar-Rash?d

May All?h have Mercy upon him

At-Tibyan Publications

.
After the murder of the elder Shaykh, Ham?d Al-Farr?j, by the apostate Sa?d? intelligence services when they stormed the district of As-Sulay, and their malicious and false claim that the Muj?hid?n of the Arabian Peninsula were the ones to kill him, Shaykh ‘Abdull?h Ar-Rash?d, may All?h grant him the highest levels of martyrdom, gave a speech entitled, “In Mourning of Shaykh Ham?d Al-Farr?j.” From the words of the Shaykh in this powerful speech are the following:

“Wall?hi, a drop of blood from elders of ?l Al-Farr?j today, Wall?hi it is greater to All?h than America perishing in totality. Wall?hi the honor of a Muslim sister raped in Iraq or in Palestine or in Afghanistan, Wall?hi it is greater to All?h ‘Azza Wa Jall than the entire earth perishing.

So where are those with jealousy? Where are the Muwahhid?n? Where are those who fear the questioning in front of the Lord of the Worlds on the Day of Resurrection?

What will you say to All?h, if He asks you about the blood of our brother, Ibr?h?m Ar-Rayyis, who committed no sin or lowliness, [who was killed] only to please the crusaders, and in the path of pleasing Bush and his soldiers?

Do you not know, O you scholars, O you students of knowledge, the [Quds?] Had?th, that All?h will call His slave to account and say to him:

‘O son of Adam, I became sick and you did not visit Me.’ He will answer: ‘How can I visit You? You are the Lord of the worlds!’ He will say: ‘Did you not know that my slave so and so became sick and you did not visit him. Had you visited him, you would have found Me with him.’

And He will say to the other:

‘O son of Adam, I was hungry and you did not feed me.’ He will answer: ‘How could I feed you? You are the Lord of the worlds!’ He will say: ‘Did you not know that my slave so and so felt hungry, and you did not feed him. Had you fed him you would have found that (i.e. the reward) with Me.’ [1]

What will you say, O you Muslims, O family of Az-Zilf? and O family of Al-Farr?j, and O people of the [Arabian] Peninsula, and O Ummah of Muhammad, ??? ???? ???? ? ???. What will you say if All?h says to you, “This righteous man was killed, and his son and wife were imprisoned, and you did not do anything about it!?”

Prepare an answer for the question, and for the question conscious awareness!!!

And in this painful and sad occasion, we vow to the family of ?l Al-Farr?j, and to the family of every oppressed brother and oppressed sister, we promise them, by the Permission of All?h, that we will take revenge for them with our blood and with our souls so long as we are able to. Wall?hi and again Wall?hi, we will not be pleased with lowliness in our Religion… Wall?hi the casualty in the killing of one Muslim only is not the Muslim himself, the casualty is the assistance of the crusaders against the Muslims in the Peninsula of Isl?m, and blood is spilt and souls perish for the pleasure of the cross and the slaves of the cross. By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, if All?h gives us steadfastness, we will not be pleased with lowliness until we take revenge for you.”

The Settling of Tawheed In This Life May 29, 2008

Posted by Ghuraba in : Uncategorized , add a comment

“…While living in Afghanistan, I have realized that Tawhid

cannot penetrate into the soul of the human being, nor will

it intensify and strengthen-the way it does in the fields of

Jihad.

This is the Tawhid, regarding which the Messenger of

ALLAH (sallallahu `alayhe wa sallam) said:

“I was sent before the hour with the sword…” [1]

Why?

“…so that ALLAH is worshipped Alone with no partners

with HIM.”

So: The settling of Tawhid in this world, is done by the

sword…not by reading books, not by studying the books

of ‘Aqidah…

Indeed, the Messenger of ALLAH (sallallahu `alayhe wa sallam)

taught us that Tawhid Al-Uluhiyyah-which was the reason why

he was sent ,so that Tawhid Al-Uluhiyyah can be established

in the people, and on the earth…He taught us that Tawhid

cannot be learned by study lessons…

No, it can only be brought up and raised (through Tarbiyyah)

in the souls, through confrontations in battles, and events which

take place from stances taken in the face of the Tawaghit

through sacrifices which the soul of the human puts forth…

Every time the soul of a human sacrifices something for this

Din-this Din will open up its subtle beauties for him, and it will

unveil its treasures for him.

Sayyid Qutb (rahimahuAllah) said:

“Verily, this Din, does not reveal its hidden beauties to a

cold sitting “Faqih” who does not struggle to establish the

Din upon this earth. This Din is not a cake which you can

refrigerate in your brain. Rather, this Din is only understood

through struggling to return it into the sphere of life, and

building its society once more.”

Yes…this Din…you will not grasp it, except according to

what you give for its sake…Give for its sake , then it will

give you…the rule of “Give and Take”…

Sacrifice! Then the Lord of the Worlds will open the

doors for you…

Put forth sacrifices for this Din-ALLAH (Most Glorified)

will teach you HIS Ayat and Ahadith…

As a basic rule, you will not be able to understand many

Verses, except when it is a reality you are going through-

a reality of Jihad.”

[Taken from: 'The Tawhid of Action' by Shaikh Abdullah

Azzam (rahimahuAllah)]

[1] Imam Ahmad and Abu Dawud recorded that
`Abdullah bin `Umar (radiya Allahu Anh) said that
the Messenger of ALLAH (sallallahu `alayhe wa sallam) said:

???????? ??????????? ?????? ?????? ?????????? ????? ???????? ????? ???????? ??? ??????? ????? ???????? ??????? ?????? ????? ???????? ???????? ?????????? ??????????? ????? ???? ??????? ???????? ?????? ????????? ???????? ?????? ???????

I was sent with the sword just before the Hour so that ALLAH
be worshipped alone without partners. My provision was
placed under the shadow of my spear, and those who defy
my order were disgraced and humiliated, and he who
imitates a people is one of them.
