New statement from Jabhat al-Nuṣrah in Wilāyat Dara’ā: "Message to the Druze and the People of al-Sūwaydā'"

UPDATE 6/2/13 4:14 PM: Here is an English translation of the below Arabic statement:
الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله وآله وصحبه اجمعين


أما بعد ،،


We have been informed that the enemy of Allah Hassan Nasr-al-Shaytan (Nasrallah) has sent to the Druze of Al-Suwayda asking them to support the Rafidah and their party – Hizb-al-Shaytan (Hezbollah) in Busra Al-Sham – may Allah liberate it – after Allah enabled the mujahidin in Jabhat Al-Nusra and the other factions to inflect in them losses in lives, money and territory in the battle of liberating Busra Al-Sham.


Therefore we send a message of warning to the Druze in Al-Suwayda and everyone who thinks to support the enemies of Allah from the regime or the Rafidah and the supporters of Hizb-al-Shaytan in Busra Al-Sham or other regions that by this support he declares war on himself and is demolishing his home by his hands and the hands of the mujahidin, and we inform you that the convoys of mujahidin and martyrdom seekers have prepared to turn your safeness to fear, and your night to day, and your happiness to grieve if your supported the enemies of Allah in any battle and especially the battle of Busra Al-Sham.


And previously the Sharia Committee of Jabhat Al-Nusra in the Wilayah of Dara’a clarified its stance from the Jews and other sects and it has mentioned in it:


We believe that it is from the Sharia politics that we cease our hands and arms from the sects that cease its hands and evil from the mujahidin during their repelling of this criminal Syrian regime (the assaulting enemy) that spread murder and corruption, for example in the Wilayah of Dara’a – may Allah liberate it – there are Christian villages that didn’t harm the mujahidin and they didn’t support the regime so the mujahidin ceased their hands from them and also in Idlib of pride there were villages of some sects who ceased their hands from the mujahidin and they didn’t support the regime so the mujahidin ceased their hands from them and this is the way of the people of jihad in our time in the jihad of repelling the assaulting enemy as it is apparent to who follows their biography and jihad. Since the mujahidin believe that the most important obligation in current time is jihad against this assaulting enemy regime and who supported him from the sects, religions and groups that’s why the mujahidin of Jabhat Al-Nusra in the Wilayah of Dara’a won’t accept that there be in the city of Al-Suwayda a headquarters for the Shabiha and the popular committees and a point of support and starting for the regime’s forces in their war against the Muslims then its people ask the mujahidin to cease their hands from them, so if the people of Al-Suwayda or other cities and villages want the mujahidin to cease their arms from them let the people of these cities and villages cease their support for this regime.


Thus we say to the Druze and others anyone who will aid this criminal regime and offer it assistance in its war against the mujahidin should bear the consequences of this action that he committed and let him wait for the response of the mujahidin and their revenge since it is not just and fair that the blood and money of the Muslims are violated and lose security in their land and those criminal traitors the supporters of the tyrant regime feel safe on their blood, money and land, Allah Almighty says: (If ye punish, then punish with the like of that wherewith ye were afflicted) 126 Surah An-Nahl.


Imam Muslim narrated that Imran ibn Husayn may Allah be pleased with him said: “Thaqif took two persons from amongst the Companions of Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as prisoners. The Companions of Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) took one person at Banu Uqail as prisoner, and captured al-‘Adbi (the she-camel of the Holy Prophet) along with him. Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) came to him and he was tied with ropes. He said: Muhammad. He came near him and said: What is the matter with you? Thereupon he (the prisoner) said: Why have you taken me as prisoner and why have you caught hold of one proceeding the pilgrims (the she-camel as she carried the Holy Prophet on her back and walked ahead of the multitude)? He (the Holy Prophet) said: (Yours is a great fault). I (my men) have caught hold of you for the crime of your allies, Banu Thaqif”.
