New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: "Concerning Security For Urgent Humanitarian Relief Work"

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q
Since a large number of our countrymen were killed, their homes wrecked and faced varying hardships in this harsh winter due to recent heavy rainfall and avalanches in many areas of our beloved homeland.
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan calls on the country’s businessmen, international NGOs, countries and the United Nations to deliver urgent aid to affected areas of Afghanistan on Islamic and humanitarian grounds. Similarly the leader of Islamic Emirate orders it’s Mujahideen throughout the country to provide necessary security to relief workers so they can deliver their aid with reassurance.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: "Response To Comments by General Nicholson"

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q
Yesterday the commander of US and NATO forces in Afghanistan, General Nicholson, made irresponsible comments following the martyrdom of Kunduz governor, Shaheed Mullah Abdul Salam Akhund, stating:
“Salam’s death is an opportunity for change. The people of Afghanistan want peace and the Government of Afghanistan is committed to achieving peace through reconciliation.”
The Islamic Emirate – as a representative of the Mujahid Afghan nation and martyrdom-loving people of Kunduz – in response to the irrational comments of General Nicholson declares that you do not have the capacity to talk to the Mujahideen because you are invaders and you understand well that the valiant Afghan nation has always treated invaders such that their brains are first put in order then forced them out of their country in humiliation.
Read the history of the Afghans. It was these same Afghans who forced the much stronger economic and military powers of British and Soviet from their country through Jihad and might of the sword. Can you see anything by the name of Great Britain and Soviet Union on the face of this planet anymore?
The Muslim Afghan nation views you Americans with the same eye as the invading English and Soviets and with the blessing of Jihad and help of Allah, will throw you out of their motherland in a similar fashion.
We do not view the martyrdom of Mullah Abdul Salam as failure or regret but as honor and victory which has intensified the thirst for revenge of the people of Kunduz and Afghanistan. It has revealed the truthfulness of the Mujahideen and has further increased the love for Mullah Abdul Salam and his companions in the community. Understand that we are a nation that loves martyrdom in the path of Allah as you love the short life of this fleeting world.
These are not our emotions or assumptions talking but are the realities which forced over one hundred and fifty thousand fully equipped troops to kneel.
If you do not end this occupation and accept the lawful demands of the valiant Afghan nation then this nation (Allah willing) will force you out of Afghanistan as the commander of US and NATO forces with all your might and technology just as this resistance broke, deranged and forced out your most celebrated commanders and experienced generals.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: "Concerning The Martyrdom of al-Ḥāj Mullā 'Abd al-Salām Akhūnd"

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

c5q1xrqxeaad2xi
من المؤمنین رجال صدقوا ما عهدوا الله علیه، فمنهم من قضی نحبه ومنهم من ینتظر وما بدلوا تبدیلا. (سورة الاحزاب ــ ۲۳ آية)
Among the believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah [i.e. have gone out for Jihad, and showed not their backs to the disbelievers], of them some have fulfilled their obligations (martyred), and some of them are still waiting, but they have never changed [i.e. never proved treacherous to their covenant which they concluded with Allah] in the least. (Al-Ahzab – 23)
The governor for Kunduz of the Islamic Emirate, the sincere and devout individual, Al-Haj Mullah Abdul Salam Akhund was martyred by a cowardly airstrike of the invading American infidels on 26/02/2017 in Dasht-e-Archi district of Kunduz province, surely to Allah we belong and to Him is the return.
As martyrdom is an elevated status for which the Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him) himself yearned and is a path treaded by great men such as Umar, Uthman, Ali and Hamza (may Allah be pleased with them), therefore we consider this dignified status rewarded to Shaheed Mullah Abdul Salam Akhund as a sign of bliss and acceptance by Allah Almighty.
We extend our deepest condolences to the honorable family, valiant friends, relatives, Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate and all countrymen on the occasion of Shaheed Mullah Abdul Salam Akhund’s martyrdom. Imam Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) reports about the status of a martyr:
قال رسول الله صلی الله علیه وسلم  لأم حارثة بنت النعمان ، وقد قتل ابنها معه يوم بدر ، فسألته أين هو ؟ قال : إنه فى الفردوس الأعلى. رواه البخاري
We pray for the acceptance of martyrdom of Shaheed Mullah Abdul Salam Akhund, and ask for him a life of high status in Jannatul Firdaws (Highest Paradise). May Allah grant his family, relatives and Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate immense patience, great rewards and a blessed substitute, Ameen.
The liberator of Kunduz – Shaheed Mullah Abdul Salam Akhund – considered martyrdom his greatest desire. His martyrdom will not only fail in weakening the ranks of Islamic Emirate, but hundreds of more youth jump to the arenas of sacrifice and martyrdom for Islam. Al-Haj Mullah Abdul Salam Akhund, during his astute leadership, has trained thousands of Mujahideen such that they will follow his path (Allah willing) and work as a bulwark to protect their religion, country and freedom against the enemy.
Shaheed Mullah Abdul Salam Akhund served in the Islamic Emirate with great sincerity, honesty, obedience and affinity, endured prisons, hardships and enervation and discharged his obligation for the establishment of an Islamic system. The Islamic Emirate shall never forget the services of this valiant and esteemed human being but will encourage every Mujahid to follow the footsteps of Mullah Abdul Salam Akhund.

New release from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan's Mawlāwī Hībat Allah Akhūnd Zādah: "Special Message Regarding Tree Plantation"

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q
Tree plantation plays an important role in environmental protection, economic development and beautification of earth. Allah Almighty has interconnected the lives of human beings with plants. Plants live off soil while humans and animals off plants. If agriculture of plants and plantation of trees are eradicated, life itself would be put in peril, Allah Almighty says:
وَهُوَ الَّذِيَ أَنزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاء مَاء فَأَخْرَجْنَا بِهِ نَبَاتَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فَأَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهُ خَضِرًا نُّخْرِجُ مِنْهُ حَبًّا مُّتَرَاكِبًا وَمِنَ النَّخْلِ مِن طَلْعِهَا قِنْوَانٌ دَانِيَةٌ وَجَنَّاتٍ مِّنْ أَعْنَابٍ وَالزَّيْتُونَ وَالرُّمَّانَ مُشْتَبِهًا وَغَيْرَ مُتَشَابِهٍ انظُرُواْ إِلِى ثَمَرِهِ إِذَا أَثْمَرَ وَيَنْعِهِ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكُمْ لآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ [۹۹سورة الأنعام].
It is He Who sends down water (rain) from the sky, and with it We bring forth vegetation of all kinds, and out of it We bring forth green stalks, from which We bring forth thick clustered grain. And out of the date-palm and its spathe come forth clusters of dates hanging low and near, and gardens of grapes, olives and pomegranates, each similar (in kind) yet different (in variety and taste). Look at their fruits when they begin to bear, and the ripeness thereof. Verily! In these things there are signs for people who believe. [Al-An’am; 99]
Earth is the greatest bounty of Allah Almighty. Allah Almighty has not created human beings on this earth in vain rather He has elevated them above many creations, given them the great blessing of reasoning and thought and tasked them with construction and development of earth. Our food, shelter, medicine and other vital needs are derived from plants and trees. That is why many verses of the Holy Quran turn the attention of human beings towards the value of trees and plants. Allah Almighty says:
وَآيَةٌ لَهُمُ الْأَرْضُ الْمَيْتَةُ أَحْيَيْنَاهَا وَأَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهَا حَبًّا فَمِنْهُ يَأْكُلُونَ . وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا جَنَّاتٍ مِنْ نَخِيلٍ وَأَعْنَابٍ وَفَجَّرْنَا فِيهَا مِنَ الْعُيُونِ. لِيَأْكُلُوا مِنْ ثَمَرِهِ وَمَا عَمِلَتْهُ أَيْدِيهِمْ أَفَلَا يَشْكُرُون.
And a sign for them is the dead land. We gave it life, and We brought forth from it grains, so that they eat thereof. And We have made therein gardens of date-palms and grapes, and We have caused springs of water to gush forth therein. So that they may eat of the fruit thereof, and their hands made it not. Will they not, then, give thanks?
Tree plantation is considered one of the greatest good deeds in Islam and is labeled Saddaqa Jarriya (continuous charity). The Prophet of Islam, Muhammad Mustafa (peace and blessings be upon him) has practically and orally encouraged us towards tree plantation and land development.
عن أَنَسٍ رضي الله عنه، قَالَ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم: مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَغْرِسُ غَرْسًا أَوْ يَزْرَعُ زَرْعًا فَيَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ طَيْرٌ أَوْ إِنْسَانٌ أَوْ بَهِيمَةٌ إِلاَّ كَانَ لَهُ بِهِ صَدَقَةٌ “متفق علي”
It is reported by Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When a Muslim plants a tree or grows something, and from it birds or animals or humans eat, then it shall be counted from him as charity.
If we delve deep into Ahadith (Prophetic Traditions), we will realize the emphasis placed upon trees and plantation in Islam and the great good and reward it entails for a Muslim who plants a fruit tree. Hence planting trees and agriculture are considered actions which hold both worldly good and benefit as well as immense rewards in the hereafter.
The Islamic Emirate – just as it is actively engaged in a struggle against foreign invaders and their hirelings for the attainment of true peace and security – works within the limits of its resources for the prosperity, economic welfare, development and self-reliance of its beloved countrymen.
Therefore as spring approaches, it calls on its Mujahideen and every individual of its devout nation to plant one or several fruit or non-fruit trees for the beautification of earth and for the benefit of Almighty Allah’s creations.
They must understand that with tree plantation, they would be following the practical footsteps of the Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him) and showing appreciation for the blessing of Allah Almighty by developing the earth and protecting the environment.
The Mujahideen and beloved countrymen must join hands in tree plantation and not hold back any effort in this regard.
