New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: "Regarding the Re-election of Obama"


That America once again voted for Obama as its president and elected him into the White House hence the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan would like to state that following:

  1. 1.Obama should properly utilize his second opportunity this time around by preventing the American leadership from using her as an international police state; it should instead focus on the hardships facing its own citizens and avert America from burning that the flames of international hatred.
  2. 2.That the American people have grown weary of wars and needless military spending therefore Obama should realize this reality; answer the call and aspirations of its people; end this futile war and prevent further tarnishing the name of America by perpetrating more war
  3. 3.Obama understands that the American nation has grown tired of war casualties and its back breaking economical penalty therefore he should immediately withdrawing its invading troops from our country and extract the American soldiers from this calamity.
  4. 4.The elements being supported by America in our country are the most detested figures and rejected faces of our nation; by supporting such elements, America will only face more difficulties and will gain only more human and material losses.
  5. 5.Maybe Obama has realized that they have lost the battle in Afghanistan therefore instead of prolonging and lying, it should immediately leave our pure soil and instead turn its attention towards its own country and people.

New statement from the Amīr of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan Mullā Muḥmmad ‘Umar (Mullah Mohammad Omar): “Message Of Felicitation on the Occasion of ‘Īd al ‘Aḍḥā”


English:
Zil Hajj 07, 1433 A.H, Wednesday, October 24, 2012
In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate.
Praise be to Allah, the Sustainer of the Worlds and peace be on the leader of the two dominions, the noblest of the apostles, the Leader of Mujahideen, our prophet, Mohammad, the Chosen one (peace be upon him) and on his offspring and all his companions. Having said that, I would like to further say: I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the rejected one.
“Those who disbelieve, spend their wealth to debar others from the path of Allah. They will continue to spend it till it will become a cause of regret for them and in the end, they will be overcome. And those who disbelieve shall be gathered in Hell. Holy Quran (8:36)
When Jesus son of Mary said: “Children of Israel! Verily, I am the Messenger of Allah to you, confirming that (which came) before me and giving good news of an apostle that will come after me whose name shall be Ahmad.” Holy Quran 61:6
I extend my felicitation to all Muslim people of Afghanistan, to the gallant Mujahideen who are now arrayed against the invasion, to the families of the martyrs, to the disabled and the esteemed pilgrims in every part of the world, on this occasion of Eid-ul-Odha, a great day of selflessness, sacrifice and joy.
I pray to the Almighty Allah to bless the Islamic Ummah to spend these days of the Eid of Sacrifice, in joy, serenity and a feeling of euphoria. Similarly, I congratulate, the honor-loving and high-spirited Mujahideen brothers on the unprecedented military victories of the current year. May Allah, the Almighty give us and you (further) steadfastness and persistence and salvage our oppressed people from this unlawful invasion. Surely, the moments (of victory) are close at hand now rather than any other time else.
Mujahideen brothers!
You are in the scene witnessing that the ranks of Jihad do strengthen, experiencing expansion in every part of the country because of the close support of ( our) brave people with the Mujahideen and their sacrifices . Massive aggressive and Jihadic tactical attacks are carried out against the grand bases of the invaders. The (enemy) evacuate military bases and barracks in awe of Mujahideen. Some conscious daring Muslims from among the ranks of the regime installed by the invaders, launch decisive attacks against the cunning invading enemy. Those Afghans who have been deceived are now turning to the peaceful lap of the Islamic Emirate in groups as a result of the efforts underway by the Call and Guidance Commission. Other self-same developments and transformations are some of the achievements that we and you should, as an obligation, have to thank Allah (swt) for having them bestowed on us.
We ask the Almighty Allah with deep humbleness to grace us with further ability to achieve our goals, to remain committed to the aspirations of our Jihad, neither become arrogant ( to gloat) nor become heedless about the goals and sacred path of Jihad. We should seek the pleasure of Allah in the conduct of all affairs and make it our resolution to obey our superiors, to implement the bye-law of Jihad, and to work for the establishment of the Islamic system, the comfort and prosperity of our people, our nation of which you and we are a part and parcel, has gone through hardships, sufferings and oppression in the past over thirty years They deserve it as an obligation on us to behave with them with tolerance and good manners. It is because of the sacrifices, selflessness and daring feats of this very nation that you and we become able in keeping up the battle against such an arrogant power for eleven years triumphantly and face the enemy with defeat at all fronts.
You and we should feel the pain of the nation and share its grief. We should realize that complete victory and quashing of the enemy become possible only through the help of the Almighty Allah and the bilateral cooperation of our people. The superiors and subordinates of the Islamic Emirate should try to cement their unity, coherence and intimacy, avoid internal differences, conduct the affairs of Jihad with mutual sympathy and consultation, work out good plans for the quashing of the enemy and implement them; provide facilities for the common people, save them from the atrocities and brutalities of the invaders and the Arbakis, pay full attention to the prevention of civilian casualties.
The enemy has tried and is trying to blame the Mujahideen for the civilian casualties. Increase your efforts to expand the area of infiltration in the ranks of the enemy and to bring about better order and array in the work. This tactic will achieve more fruitful results, if God willing. Focus on honing behavior and raising level of knowledge of the Mujahideen. Explain to them all essential injunctions and ethics of Jihad, and pay attention to their education, vastness of insight and moral upbringing. Give a hand of help to the orphans, the disabled and the prisoners. This should remain inculcated in your mind that every action contrary to the religious requirements, and being based on sheer emotions bring in only wicked consequences.
We call on the Afghans who still stand with the stooge regime to turn to full-fledged cooperation with their Mujahid people like courageous persons in order to protect national interests and to complete independence of the country. Jihadic activities inside the circle of the State militias are the most effective stratagem. Its dimension will see further expansion, organization and efficiency if God willing.
I urge every brave Afghan in the ranks of the foreign forces and their Afghan hirelings who may find an opportunity to utilize this opportunity effectively and quash the enemies of Islam and country in their centers and use all possible means, opportunities and tactics to strike them. This is because Jihad is an obligation enjoined on every one. It is the duty of every individual of the nation from religious perspective and on the basis of his conscious to strive for the liberation and independence of his country.
The (local) chiefs of Mujahideen are instructed to submit (the names of) those heroes who have performed such exploits to the leadership for further recognition and acknowledgement of their daring actions.
As to the future political destiny of the country, I would like to repeat that we are neither thinking of monopolizing power nor intend to spark off domestic war but only try that the future political fate of the country must be determined by the Afghans themselves without any interference from big countries and neighbors, and it must be Islamic and Afghan in form.
After the independence of the country, we should have a Sharia-based national regime with the help of Allah, the Almighty, which will bring about a sole central authority and be free from every kind of discrimination and biases. Jobs will be given on merits; territorial integrity of the country will be protected. Security will be maintained, Sharia laws will be implemented, we will guarantee rights of both male and female of the country, build economic structures and strengthen social foundations and facilities of education for all people of the country in the light of the Islamic rules and national interests, conduct all academic and cultural affairs efficiently and will, with the help of the brave nation, foil the effort of those who harbor the notion of disintegrating Afghanistan and intend to flare up domestic war to achieve their goals. They should not think that the Afghan people are so simple-mined that they would break off their deep ideological, cultural, social and historical bonds among the fraternal ethnicities. The former Soviet Union pursued the same recipe of disintegration but the result was contrary to their efforts and they themselves became entrapped in their ploy.
We want to have good relations with all those who respect Afghanistan as an independent Islamic country and their relations and approaches are not domineering and colonialist. This is what every independent and Muslim Afghan wants.
About (efforts) to reach understanding with the foreigners, I would like to say that we would continue political endeavors along with military struggle in order to obtain our Islamic and national goals and aspirations. For this purpose, we have an entity in the shape of political office to conduct the political struggle. They interact with the foreigners in view of our Islamic, Jihadic and national interests. I should say that we have no other conduit to reach an understanding with the other side except through the Political Office, because we do not play politics on this issue covertly nor we can tolerate (others) to play this. We have framed our policy to reach the understanding on the bases of religious and national values and then we have publicly announced it. If the intelligence agencies and diplomatic circles of the invading countries want to create spurious channels of negotiation and fake faces (imposters) and then make them larger-than-life figures and channels through the media, it will be nothing more than a waste of time and duping their own people.
Since independence is the right of every one, so we urge the world, the international community, particularly, the Islamic countries and the Islamic conference to help us on the basis of their (moral) responsibility in ending the occupation of our Islamic country and obtaining its independence. Similarly, they should carry out their responsibility on the basis of human sympathy in releasing our prisoners who have been passing days and nights of miserableness in Guantanamo, Bagram, other prisons and in the prisons of the neighboring countries, particularly, the human rights organizations should feel their responsibility to find out about the human rights violations

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: "Response Regarding Rumors Published by 'The Daily Beast'"


A couple of days earlier, a western newspaper ‘The Daily Beast’ published a fabricated and unfounded report in which it stated that may Allah forbid, that the esteemed Amir-ul-Mumineen (Commander of Faithful) has either died or is affected by some illness.
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan strongly and categorically rejects these repeated rumors and propaganda attempts of the enemy and believes it to be from another one of their failed efforts. Such irresponsible talks and rumors will never negatively effect the morale of the Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate and the muslim Afghan nation as is hoped by the enemy.
The esteemed Amir ul Muminee, with help of Almighty Allah and backing of his Momin nation, has been able to wage a courageous and successful Jihad against half a million soldiers of 49 invading nation and their puppets for the past eleven years. So naturally, the flailing enemy in going to exert even more efforts to raise the spirit of its morale-lacking troops and disappointed war generals but the Islamic Emirate wants to comfort its Mujahideen and nation and tells them to not worry about at all about the esteemed Amir-ul-Mumineen; All praise are due to Allah, he is in living freely and is in good health and regularly issues verbal and written orders to the officials of Islamic Emirate.
We believe that publishing such fabrications will only further damage the reputation of those controlled media outlets which repeatedly spread such baseless rumors and white lies and will only raise more questions about their partiality and freedom.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: "Marking the Eleventh Year of the Invasion of Afghanistan"


Eleven years ago today (6th October) our sanctified Islamic country was barbarically invaded by America. This cruel invasion which was carried out under various excuses was in reality America trying to extent its infidel power over Afghanistan and the region.
They carried out this tyrannical invasion under the so-called pretexts of bringing peace, prosperity and development to Afghanistan but to instill fear in the hearts of the Afghans, they carried out such savagery and crimes in Guantanamo, Bagram and other secret prisons which humanity is unable to comprehend.
They used all potential and means of barbarism at their disposal against the defenseless and victimized Afghans however with the grace and help of Allah, despite all of her savagery, crimes and evident violations they were unable to subdue the Islamic determination and will of the Muslim Afghans.
The ill-equipped but strong-faith Afghans began Jihad in defense of their religion, creed and land against the criminals of this era and with the divine help of Allah, handed the American invaders such an exemplary historical lessons which made them forget all excuses for launching the invasion.
With the help of Allah, the valiant Afghans under the Jihadi leadership of Islamic Emirate defeated the military might and numerous strategies of America and NATO alliance with Jihadi resistance and collective unity and now after eleven years of unceasing terror, tyranny, crimes and savagery, they are fleeing Afghanistan with such humiliation and disgrace that they are struggling to provide an explanation.
The Muslim and Mujahid nation of Afghanistan is marking the eleventh year of the barbaric infidel invasion in their triumphant Jihadi trenches such that the wary morale-lacking invaders are competing ignominiously with each other in turning tail from Afghanistan even as their bases are being conquered by high-spirited Mujahideen one after the other.
Those slogans and goals for which the Islamic land of Afghanistan was invaded are being completely disregarded due to the Jihadi hammering by the Mujahid Afghans; now it’s a only a race to relieve oneself as each announces withdrawal ahead of their schedules and this is the core solution to the problem which was repeatedly highlighted to the invaders by the Islamic Emirate throughout this eleven year period. Even now the invaders should understand if this battle was to prolong a hundred years, the determination and zeal of the Afghans in defense of their religion and land will not waver and even then the solution will be your defeat and complete withdrawal. Those who can easily grasp this concept are those who have studied the history of Afghanistan.
The Islamic Emirate while congratulating its Muslim nation on nearing victory and coming out triumphant from this historical battle, asks Allah Almighty to accept all their sacrifices and hardships.
On the occasion of marking the eleventh year of the American invasion of Afghanistan, the Islamic Emirate desires from its Muslim and Mujahid nation to continue their Islamic Jihad with unity and solidarity against the foreign invaders until all the transgressing infidels are forced to leave our country, overtly overwhelmed and defeated.
And victory shall certainly be awarded to the valiant Mujahideen, the defenders of the religion of Allah Almighty, Allah willing.
