As usual, a report has been prepared and published by the UNAMA office in Kabul on the American demands which is totally biased. The Islamic Emirate reacts as following:
1- The UNAMA office inside Kabul has tactically shared this report just a few hours prior to its publication. The Islamic Emirate was not given enough time for its analysis and discussion with the UNAMA. This step was taken by them just to have a reference that they had shared this report with us which is itself an attempt to mislead the people.
2- Just like previous year, 16% increase in civilian losses has been claimed this year in which 74% responsibility has been assigned to Mujahidin without furnishing any proofs. Some of the incidents were alluded to in which people related to Kabul admin, Arbakis and workers of some other detrimental organs were plainly called as civilians. No explanation is given about the reason of these incidents which itself produces doubts about the authenticity of this report. It shows that the above mentioned report is in consonance with the Americans’ attitude and is an attempt of propaganda against Mujahidin.
3- The interesting point is that a part of the report says that the Islamic Emirate has admitted the responsibility of 52 such incidents through its websites, spokesmen and emails; resulting in civilian casualties in which 571 ordinary people have lost their lives. These attacks are martyrdom attacks, landmines and complex assaults carried out by Mujahidin. This statement is made by UNAMA while the Islamic Emirate has not a single incident in which civilian people have been targeted in these attacks. The incidents claimed by us are all the losses of our enemy and calling them civilians is UNAMA’s own judgment which is used for making the report more acceptable for Americans. Secondly, all the news broadcasted from the address of the Islamic Emirate, are simultaneously shared with media and the loss of 571 civilians is totally baseless and an unproven news. Yes! If UNAMA considers officials of Kabul admin, police, soldiers, intelligence workers and employees of other sensitive and detrimental organs as civilians, then their own analysis is inaccurate which means nothing but a baseless propaganda.
We never consider those people as civilians who are directly involved in our country’s occupation and work with sensitive organs of the enemy. On the other side, thousands of defenseless civilian people are martyred, wounded in imprisoned by Americans in their raids and bombings; but UNAMA, while speaking on behalf of Americans, terms all these people either militants or related with them in its reports !!!
Only 9% casualties have been attributed jointly to the invaders and the Kabul admin which has no resemblance with the American brutalities on the daily basis, their raids, bombing and all the cruelties of the Arbakis and workers of other security organs who have made the life the people unbearable in each and every corner of the country. It is another evidence that this report has been filtered by the Americans and has been attributed to UNAMA.
The Islamic Emirate considers the civilians as its own people. It has undertaken this huge, hazardous and painstaking resistance just for the emancipation of its own civilian countrymen. The Islamic Emirate has established an influential committee in its organizational setup for the prevention of civilian losses which has resulted in substantial reduction of these losses as per our calculation.
As we have said earlier, UNAMA prepares its report on the directions and recommendations of the American embassy inside Kabul whose sole aim is to mislead the people’s mentality against Mujahidin. We strongly reject this unfounded report and ask UNAMA that it will not succeed in this process of propaganda. The people are observing everything with their own eyes. The precautionary measures undertaken by the Islamic Emirate for saving the civilian lives, in such a huge and unbalanced war, have been unparalleled on the international level today as well as in the past.

Question: If you could provide us information about the important activities of the ‘Educational Commission’ during the last few years?
Answer: You understand that we are passing through severe warring conditions which naturally hamper the normal educational activities or programs. Still we are grateful to Allah Almighty that we have achieved a lot in the field of education, in view of our present possibilities. Some of our activities are as follow:
1- The Rural Schools:
As most of population live in rural areas which are deprived from most of the educational facilities. So it is one of the top priorities of the Educational Commission to build rural schools for departing primary education and necessary religious studies. Important steps have been taken with the following specifications in this regard:
A- The rural Imams (scholars) have been assigned to allocate at least 2 to 2½ hours to teach the children of the village inside the mosque or a house.
B- They should teach them the customary subjects till the preparation of curriculum e.g. the alphabets, the Holy Quran, Shuroot Salat (the prerequisites of the prayer) Qudoori, Panj Ganj (five treasures) and the books of the first three classes of that curriculum which was prepared for Mujahidin.
C- The above mentioned books and other stationary like pen, notebooks etc. are provided by this commission.
D- We are extending our co-operation even to those people who are living in migration camps so that their children are left without education.
E- For these rural madrassas, we have prepared a course syllabus or curriculum according to their needs and the prevailing circumstances which is ready to be sent to the press.
2- Boarding madrassas for Religious Studies:
A- An outline consisting of 20 articles has been drafted by the commission, in accordance with the views and recommendations of various madrassas for the better organizations of madrassas, for the improvement of teaching methodology and for the elevation of moral standards of students. This draft has been sent to all related madrassas and is under implementation. In this draft, the duration of educational year, schedule and discipline of examinations, educational and moral principles and rules and regulations for speeches and educational competitions have been elaborated.
B- In the light of above mentioned draft, this year, on 3rd, 4th and 5th of Rabi-u-Thani (the fourth lunar month) 1434 A.H. corresponding to 14th, 15th and 16th of February 2013, a speech competition was arranged among the students of 6th Grade who had come from several madrassas. By the grace of Allah Almighty, this contest was conducted with full discipline and organization and it was a great and successful step forward in this direction. Interesting speeches in Arabic, Persian and Pashto languages were delivered in this contest which were greatly admired by the audience. At the end, substantial awards were distributed among the winners as well as the organizational committee for their excellent performance.
C- After a good deal of discussion and deliberation, on 25th of Rajab 1433 A.H. corresponding to 15thJune 2012, a unified and standardized curriculum was organized and ratified which consists of primary, middle and eleven grades. All necessary subjects according to the need of time, have been included in it. This curriculum has been sent to all the madrassas, it has been warmly accepted by the teachers and has been implemented to a great extent in the first year.
D- Three examinations were conducted this year i.e. quarterly, mid-term and annual exams. In the annual term, a combine exam of previous and final years were given to the graduates of these classes. Although this was the very first time and the beginning year, therefore we were facing a lot of difficulties. In the future, this procedure will get much more improved. The commission is of the view to confer official certificates to those students who have participated in this exam.
E- Religious boarding madrassas are always a great asset for our homeland. The good news is that this series has always supported by our nation and ordinary people. Even today, in the prevailing tough circumstances, religious boarding madrassas are working. Outside the country, in the camps of migrants, our vigilant and heedful Ulemas i.e. scholars have established a lot of madrassas which are normally operating. Following steps have been taken for their better organization and co-ordination:
a- The principals and heads of madrassas are invited periodically for the improvement and progress of the educational system. Joint sessions are held with them for overcoming the obstacles lying ahead.
b- An educational council comprising of 16 excellent scholars is set up for survey and control of the boarding madrassas. This council observes the implementation of rules and regulations. They are also assigned to check the curriculums of these madrassas.
c- For the better organization and survey of madrassas in various areas, we have appointed our representatives amongst the Ulema i.e. the scholars. Their duty is to supervise all the madrassas in their related areas and if needed, arrange meetings with the heads of these madrassas.
3- Contemporary Educational Institutions:
Efforts are underway for providing better opportunities to the extent of our possibilities. A draft comprising 19 articles has been prepared to have a better supervision and surveillance of these schools. For example:

In the current Jihad against the western infidel invasion over Afghanistan, on one side, it is a huge war from the involvement of human force and their casualties’ point of view and on the other side, this war is counted in the category of the largest and unparalleled wars of the world from the economic point of view.
The western alliance, headed by America, invaded Afghanistan at a time when the western invading countries were at the climax of their economic strength as compared to any other time. Particularly, the United States of America had made unprecedented economic growth and it was this economic development which made Gorge Bush so arrogant that he launched wars against the Muslim world.
It is a well-known fact that resistance against such a war, which enjoys a colossal economic strength behind, also needs a large amount of expenditure and financial sacrifices. The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, by the support and help of Allah Almighty, has been busy in Jihad for the last 11 years against the biggest economic powers. On one side, the Islamic Ummah has rendered unparalleled sacrifices and on the other side, their financial sacrifices and Jihad can be considered a historical and epoch making deed. This was due to the incomparable financial sacrifices of the Afghan Muslim Nation in particular and the whole Muslim Umma in general, which led the current Jihad to the point of success against the colossal economic powers of the world.
For having a better understanding of the financial system, economic programs and the needs of the Islamic Emirate, we have conducted an interview with the director of the ‘Economic Commission’ of the Islamic Emirate, Mulla Abu Ahmad. We would like to draw your attention towards it.
Question: First of all we welcome you. To begin, if you could give us information about the Economic Commission of the Islamic Emirate and shed some light over its setup.
Answer: الحمدلله رب العلمین ، والصلوة والسلام علی سیدالمرسلین محمد وعلی آله واصحابه اجمعین وبعد:
First of all, I would like to thank you for having me here. As far as your question is concerned, the ‘Economic Commission’ is in-charge and liable for financial and economic affairs in the official setup of the Islamic Emirate. It has the responsibility of managing and organizing all the financial affairs related to the Islamic Emirate.
In addition to its central bureau, it has representatives and setups in all provinces of Afghanistan. Similarly, it has its representatives and setups for collecting funds in all parts of the country, neighboring countries, Arab world and in most parts of the Muslim world. The financial support of the ordinary Muslim people with Mujahidin through which they participate in financial Jihad, reaches to the Economic Commission of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan through these representatives. The Economic Commission then distributes this money in various Jihadi activities through a well-organized and transparent program.
Question: If you could give us information about collecting the funds i.e. how can the ordinary people financially support the Islamic Emirate from inside the country or from any part of the world?
Answer: As I told you before that we have our representatives inside Afghanistan, the neighboring countries, the gulf countries and some other countries of the world. Whosoever wants to make a contribution to the Islamic Emirate, he can contact us on the following E-mail address for his surety and satisfaction.
The E-mail address is: [email protected]
Similarly, the following numbers are always live for contact and those who want to donate to the Islamic Emirate, can get in contact with our representatives.
0093772784376
0093798098813
Let me explain one thing. Sometimes the enemy highly propagates that they are closely watching the transfer of Mujahidin’s funds and now they cannot collect money from various parts of the world or dispatch money. I would like to say that this is a hollow propaganda. Mujahidin are utilizing quite safe ways and resources for the collection and transfer of funds. Through this procedure neither the donator is endangered nor the one collector. Therefore, I can say with full confidence that the surveillance of the enemy has not affected our activities. Anyone in any part of the world can send his money to the Mujahidin of the Islamic Emirate through these safe and sound channels.
Question: You mentioned the organizational setup of the Economic Commission and the procedure of collecting funds, now if you tell us about the spending procedure of this commission i.e. in which portions does the Economic Commission spends its funds?
Answer: The Economic Commission is the in-charge department for all the financial affairs of the Islamic Emirate. The area of its work and expenditure is quite wide and large. We spend the funds mostly in the following portions:
Question: As the head of the Economic Commission of the Islamic Emirate, if you tell us the sources of this commission i.e. what are the present financial resources of this commission?
Answer: The economy of the Islamic Emirate is based upon the financial support the Muslim masses of Afghanistan in particular and the world Muslim community in general. By the grace of Allah Almighty, the Islamic Emirate has managed to get special place and reverence in the hearts of the common people throughout the Muslim world through its prolonged, transparent determination and steadfastness. Not only the people of Afghanistan and her neighboring countries but also the ordinary Muslim masses of the Muslim countries of the world including the Arab countries have a deep longing for a pure Islamic government for several years. The implementation of Islamic Sharia, true Jihad against a tyrant and Islamic System of life are their aspirations. They have special reverence for the Islamic Emirate due to the above mentioned objectives.
For the further clarification of the topic, I would like to add something more in this regard.
You might have heard the propaganda of the enemy that some particular governments or setups are financially supporting the Islamic Emirate and Mujahidin are sustaining their Jihad through this financial support. But if we become a bit attentive, we find that the current Jihad inside Afghanistan is expensive and protracted war from the financial point of view. Even the American economy has failed in its further sustainability. It has weakened and crippled other economically well-off governments of the world. But, by the grace of Allah Almighty, no signs of weakness or financial deficit can be seen on Mujahidin’s side. The main reason behind this fact is that the economy of the Islamic Emirate is not dependant or co-related with some particular country or system. Neither the backward or developing countries of the region are in a position to support or shoulder this kind of protracted war from economic point of view. The economy of the Islamic Emirate is actually backed by the donations and collections of the one and half billion Muslims of the world who are very sincere and committed people and they even share their morsel with Mujahidin. They rely upon the one half and send the other half to assist Mujahidin.
Apart from Afghanistan, we have such examples of sacrifices of financial Jihad which remind us the incidents of our glorious past and the beginning of the Islamic era. Even today, a large number of Muslims endow a substantial portion of their economy for Jihad and Mujahidin. Particularly the women folk of the Muslim Ummah are playing a vital role in the financial Jihad. Here, I would like to furnish one or two examples so that you realize sincerity of the common Muslims of the world who donate their share in the financial Jihad.
A Muslim brother, who identity will not be disclosed, suddenly came up with a large amount of money as aid for Mujahidin. When he was asked about it, he said that someone briefed him about the financial needs and requirements of Mujahidin but I did not have enough money to support them. The requirements of Mujahidin and my insufficiency badly affected me. When I entered my home in this condition, my spouse apprehended my gloominess and asked me the reason for it. I hold her that Mujahidin are in dearth need of money which made me gloomy. At this time when she came to know about the prevailing condition of Mujahidin, she got up and fetched her necklace which was fully made of precious gold and she used to keep it with great care and attention. She told me that she wanted to give this necklace as endowment in the path of Allah. She asked me to sell it in the market and whatever you get in its return, send it to Mujahidin so that they could fulfill their requirements with it.
Similarly, I am the personal witness of another incident. We were sitting with some economically well-off people in a far flung area. We were there to collect their aids for Mujahidin. The owner of the place, where we were sitting, was digging a well with the help of some laborers. Amongst them was a white-bearded worker who was getting a small paycheck amounting to only 2000 rupees. He came out of the well in a totally exhausted condition. He came near us while he was tired and wet. When he realized that we are the members of the economic commission and collecting money for Jihad, he told his master or owner of the place that wanted to give his wages of 2000 in the path of Allah. He asked the master to hand his wages to us in advance so that we could spend it the path of Jihad for the sake of Allah.
These donations which are made by our Muslim brothers and sisters with great sincerity, secrecy and only for the sake of Allah’s pleasure are full of great blessings. Allah Almighty has made them a source for the sustainability of the Jihadi
