New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: “Regarding Recent American Elections”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

American elections and transition of administration is an internal issue of the United States.

The Doha agreement signed between the United States and the Islamic Emirate is an excellent document for bringing an end to the war and for a better future for both countries.

The Islamic Emirate would like to stress to the new American president-elect and future administration that implementation of the agreement is the most reasonable and effective tool for ending the conflict between both our countries.

Withdrawal of all US forces from Afghanistan, non-interference in our country and not allowing the use of Afghanistan to threaten America is in the interest of both our peoples and our nations.

We remain committed to the agreement on our part and view it as a powerful basis for solving the Afghan issue, and we also give preference to solving our internal problems through dialogue and negotiations.

The Islamic Emirate seeks positive relations with all countries of the world including America in the future.

The future American president and administration need to be vigilant of war-mongering circles, individuals and groups that seek to perpetuate the war and to keep America mired in conflict in order to pursue their own personal interests and hold over power.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan’s Dhabīḥ Allah Mujāhid: “Reaction Concerning the Recent Position of Some Scholars About the Ongoing Jihād”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

Some twenty years ago when America launched its invasion of Afghanistan, the persecuted and defenseless Afghan nation – with fatwa from distinguished Afghan scholars and with bare hands but indomitable faith – was forced to pick up arms in defense of their right to freedom and to stave off collapse of their Islamic government.

This great worship accompanied by great hardships, trials, displacements, imprisonments, sacrifices and tribulations has been duly guided to this stage over a twenty-year period.

Now, the invading American forces have agreed to withdraw their forces but have yet to complete this process, and the individuals imposed on the Afghan nation who served the American invaders as civil servants to protect their interests are still in power.

The Afghan nation has endured immense spiritual blows in the framework of this imposed regime – immorality has reached a peak, administrative corruption has become a social norm, and looting, expropriation, bribery, embezzlement, usurping rights of people, and transgression and violation of private premises has become a daily routine.

On top of this it has imposed a foreign system on Afghans, tremendously harmed our religious values, and pushed Afghanistan towards polarization, prejudice, ethnic and sectarian hostility and a host of other problems.

As the Afghan Mujahid nation initiated their noble Jihad against the invaders for the establishment of a pure Islamic system and sacrificed hundreds of thousands of souls to that end, it is accordingly their inherent Islamic and legal right to pursue their lawful objectives through the apt use of Jihad and political means.

The aim of Jihad is to raise with word of Allah (pure Islamic system) – and until this Islamic aim is achieved, Jihad shall continue with all its legitimacy and glory, and no one is allowed to hinder or create obstacles for this great aspiration of the Afghan nation.

Recently, a number of supposed Ulama councils inside and outside the country, who have endured not a single day of hardship in Jihad nor have they any firsthand knowledge of the Afghan situation, have unfortunately issued fatwas (edicts) and ruled this great Jihad unlawful.

The majority of the Islamic Emirate, from its leadership all the way down to its last Mujahid, are pious citizens, religious scholars and Islamically informed individuals. If any scholar is skeptical about the legitimacy of the ongoing Jihad or lacks information, then they must desist from issuing void fatwas and must follow religious principles by foremost acquiring extensive knowledge about the situation, hearing the arguments of Mujahideen, and then passing judgments about issues.

A number of palace scholars of the Kabul administration that had no qualms about religion, country and principles over the course of twenty years but conversely made invalid justifications to siphon stipends from American invaders by considering themselves ‘weak and unable’, are now convening gatherings and issuing staged fatwas. This is cardinal and historic perfidy towards religion, Islamic teachings and the persecuted Afghan nation.

We understand full well that these plots are instigated, financed and promoted by enemy circles that shall not have the slightest effect on the ongoing Jihadic activity, Allah willing and nothing is hard for Allah.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: “Concerning the Irresponsible Remarks By the French President About Islam”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

The French President (Macron) recently made irresponsible remarks against Islam and alleged that Islam was facing a crisis internationally and is in need of reform, placed restrictions on Muslims in France and other such measures.

The Islamic Emirate condemns the comments of the French President and considers it a stand against nations.

It would be better if he carefully studied Islam instead of making ignorant Islamophobic remarks, to stop making irresponsible comments based on deficient information of hostile actors and to stop assuming a stand that threatens international peace and inflames enmity and animosity among nations.

This is the umpteenth time that the supposed caricatures of the Great Prophet of Islam, Muhammad (peace and blessing be upon him), have been displayed in France and numerous evil circles in the country have promoted a misleading image of Muslims.
