New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: “Regarding the Afghan Refugee Problems in Iran”

l_DzlA8Q

In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

As the residents of the Islamic Republic of Iran have suffered losses due to the spread of corona virus and with it the problems of Afghan refugees have also increased, the Islamic Emirate would like to extend its sincere condolences to the leader and the people of Iran.

The difficulties faced by the Islamic Republic of Iran at this sensitive time are noteworthy however Islamic brotherhood and sympathy is also a key pillar in Islam, hence we request the leadership of the Islamic Republic of Iran to not treat the Afghan refugees any different than the Iranian people, to not forcefully expel them from the country, to give them proper medical attention and to deal with them in the framework of Islamic brotherhood.

The Islamic Emirate would also like to share its deep concerns with the officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran concerning some reports about the maltreatment of Iran based Afghan refugees.

We also call upon Afghan refugees in Iran to strictly follow the rules and guidelines issued by the said country in combating the spread corona virus.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: “Concerning the Fight Against Corona Virus”

l_DzlA8Q

In the name of Allah, the most Compassionate, the most Merciful

Corona virus is a disease ordained by the Almighty Allah which has perhaps been sent by Allah (SwT) because of the disobedience and sins of mankind or other reasons.

Our Muslim nation must consider this disease a decree of Allah (SwT) and deal with it in accordance with the teachings of the Holy Prophet (PBUH).

As per the directives of scholars – people should recite effective prayers and astaghfar (seeking forgiveness) frequently, increase the reading of the Holy Quran, give in alms and charity and turn to Allah (SwT) in repentance for their past sins.

Moreover, the safety guidelines issued by health organizations, doctors and other health experts must be observed and all safety precautions followed to the best of one’s abilities.

But at the same time, we must not forget reliance upon Allah (SwT) while desisting from panic, leaving Islamic injunctions or committing actions which could, Allah forbid, amount to religious rebellion or become the cause of spreading anxiety and psychological fear among the people.

International relief, health and humanitarian organizations should execute their obligation of sending necessary equipment, medicine and aid to areas under our control and we shall lay the groundwork for their secure travel.

Our brotherly businessmen – in line with their Islamic and humanitarian responsibility – must also support their fellow people in this time of crisis. They must refrain from unlawful profit, price hikes and hoarding and instead show affinity towards the people.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: “Prisoners Commission: Concerning the Spread of Corona Virus in Prisons”

l_DzlA8Q

As the corona virus has become a global pandemic and has reached Afghanistan as well, it becomes the duty of every Muslim to understand and execute their responsibility for its prevention.

Prisons under Kabul administration control which are overcrowded and lack basic health and sanitary facilities are facing the most serious threat.

The Islamic Emirate has major concerns about the prevailing conditions hence it first and foremost calls all detainees to take precautionary measures and strictly follow all the published prevention guidelines in order to safeguard themselves from this dangerous virus.

It also urges international human right and health organizations along with aid agencies to pay special attention to prisons in Afghanistan and to issue necessary guidelines and aid to the related departments.

It must be mentioned that there are around forty thousand detainees in Kabul administration run prisons where even common diseases can spread rapidly and Allah forbid, if the corona virus were to take affect it would generate a catastrophic tragedy in which case all responsibility shall fall squarely on the shoulders of the Kabul administration and its foreign backers.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: “Regarding the Mischievous Group of Dā’ish”

l_DzlA8Q

As the group named Daesh is a mysterious and oppressive group, The Islamic Emirate with the blessing of Allah (SWT) and support of the Afghan Mujahid nation expelled it from various areas of Afghanistan – limiting its presence to a few eastern areas of the country where clearance operations against them continued and their strongholds were finally cleared.

The Islamic Emirate has firm will to eliminate this group from the remaining areas and rescue its countrymen from their harm forever, inshaAllah.

The Islamic Emirate will never give Daesh the opportunity to turn Afghanistan into the center of mischief.

The Islamic Emirate leadership asks its Mujahid people to further stand shoulder to shoulder with the Islamic Emirate Mujahidin and not allow the aforementioned group in any way to recruit, train, fundraise, or do other activities so that they are not able to spill the blood of innocent people of Afghanistan, create hatred and conflict among people, or pose a threat to the Afghans and internationals from Afghanistan.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: “Regarding the Political Self-Determination of the Afghan Muslim Nation”

l_DzlA8Q

It is the fundamental right of the Afghan nation to determine its own future. History has proven that whenever a foreign power has tried to snatch this right away from our Muslim nation and impose a system that opposes our Islamic and national values, they have faced historical failures. On the other hand, it has similarly brought upon the Afghan nation immeasurable hardships and sufferings and has become the principle cause of prolonged wars and destruction in our homeland.

Therefore with our firm insistence, the agreement signed with America clearly states that no foreign nation shall interfere in the internal affairs of Afghanistan. The Afghans shall chart a course for their future in a free atmosphere. The time has now come for the implementation of this principle as other sides and forces must end repetition of their failed and implausible experiments. The Afghan Muslim nation should be allowed to determine their own future with their own freewill so that they can achieve their ultimate goal of enduring peace and national unity.
