al-Andalus Media presents a new video message from al-Qā’idah in the Islamic Maghrib’s Shaykh Aḥmad Abū ‘Abd al-Ilah: "Letter of Advice to an-Nahḍah (Ennahda) in Tunisia of al-Qayrawān"
al-Andalus Media presents a new statement from al-Qā’idah in the Islamic Maghrib's Abū Yaḥyā al-Shinqīṭī: "Oh People of Tunisia of al-Qayrawān Be Supporters of Sharī'ah al-Raḥman"
UPDATE 5/21/13 1:55 PM: Here is an English translation of the below Arabic statement:
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
Alhamdulillah who created for worshiping, and imposed on us to do jihad for the sake of Allah as we ought to strive, I praise and thank Him, and I ask Him grace and more, and I bear witness that Lā ʾIlāha ʾIllā l-Lāh IS Alone with no partner, which is the greatest witness, and I bear witness that Mohammed is his slave and messenger who was aided by His Lord and achieved his desires, may the peace and blessings be upon him, his family and Sahabah, and who followed them in work, intention and will.
Then:
(Arabic poetry)
My greetings to you, how are you, are you eager for the Sharia like me?
Our honorable people in Tunisia of knowledge and Jihad, Tunis of support and shelter, Tunisia of manhood and chivalry. O’ tribes of Al-Hamamah, Al-Maraziq, Al-Farafish, Al-Kadadma, Al-Sabiriya, Awalad Sidi Obaid, Al-Za’aba Talil and others from the people of magnanimity, O’ spending Ulema of Tunisia and its sincere preachers, and its youth who hold hot coals in the time of eeriness.
These are words of advice and support, which we offer to you when Tunisia is passing through a critical juncture and great cunning, either from our enemies the crusader Americans and their treacherous agents from Rafidah and apostates. Despite of that the Muslim is obliged to give advice to his Ummah and religion, since religion is advice as have been stated by our beloved peace and blessings of llah be upon him.
So I say and success is from Allah: In the beginning you have to thank Allah Almighty that he relieved you from the rule of that oppressing arrogant tyrant Ben Ali, who made you suffer from oppression what is only known by Allah. And today you have been liberated from that liberal ruler Alhamdulillah, remember that great blessing, and repeat in the streets, neighborhoods and cities of Tunisia, the Saying of the Almighty: (And We desired to bestow a favor upon those who were deemed weak in the land, and to make them the Imams, and to make them the heirs) 5 Surah Al-Qasas.
Then know may Allah have mercy over you:
Your Ummah is living in a hard stage, holding in its folds glad tidings and grief.
Wherever the Muslim turns his eyes, he sees what makes the heart dissolve, and erupts the tears. All that is because of the absence of the Sharia of Allah Almighty, and the collaboration of the traitors from our people who betrayed Allah and His messenger, whom their situation with their oppressed people is similar to the saying of the poet:
(Arabic poetry)
Brothers whom we took as shields, indeed they were so but for the enemies
I thought they were poignant arrows, indeed they were so but in our hearts
They said we did our best, I said yes but in corrupting me
The struggle between the people of good and the people of evil, between the preachers of the Sharia of Allah and His party, and the preachers of the methodology of Satan and his followers, is a constant tradition that cannot be replaced or changed, that is why Allah said in Surah Al-Anaam:
(Thus have We appointed unto every prophet an adversary – devils of humankind and jinn who inspire in one another plausible discourse through guile. If thy Lord willed, they would not do so; so leave them alone with their devising) 112
The Al-Allamah Ben Achour rahimahullah said in Al-Tahrir wa Al-Tanwir: “That is to alleviate the messenger peace and blessings of Allah be upon him from what grieved him from the conditions of his disbelieving people and their insistence to reject his Dawah, so Allah informed him: that those are his enemies, and the enmity of those similar to them to those similar to him is from the traditions of Allah Almighty in testing all the prophets, so every one of them had enemies, so the enmity of those people to the prophet peace be upon him isn’t a new thing. In other words: aren’t you a prophet and we have made for every prophet an enemy”. End of the quotation. Thus the people of falsehood Allah have made them for the enmity of the messengers and their followers, and filled their hearts with that even reviewed their thoughts they couldn’t change their stances because their hearts are full with the enmity of Allah and his message. And Allah made their ears deaf from hearing the truth, and made their eyesight go blind from seeing it? That is why they were the worst creatures to Allah, as Allah Almighty have said: (Surely the vilest of animals, in Allah’s sight, are the deaf, the dumb, who do not understand) 22 Surah Al-Anfal.
Allah turned them away from the right path, and in this life He only showed them the way of error, and that is why Allah Almighty said: (I will turn away from My communications those who are unjustly proud in the earth) 146 Surah Al-Araf, and it is a tradition in this universe, and that this variance between the Awliya of Rahman and the Awliya of Satan continues, so there has to be a trace for those elite who were selected by Allah Almighty, to believe Mohammed may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and support him, and follow his trail and footsteps, and follow them in the methodology that they pursued.
Also there should on the face of this earth another people who choose to take the path of the enemies of Allah and His messenger and follow their trail and footsteps, and in every generation there has to be a generation of those who are similar to Abu Jahal Amr ibn Hisham and Utba ibn Rabiya and Shayba ibn Rabiya and Zuma ibn Al-Aswad, and their like will remain in every time and place. And Allah have made this religion a lamp on this earth, and it will reach where day and night have reached, and it will not leave a house of Madar (mud or clay) or a house of Wabar (fur of camels and goats, i.e. tents) without entering it.
And so there will remain enemies who will seek to repel it, and distort its people, and calling and accusing them with improper words and heinous titles, since every battle of this world is similar to the well-known battles of the messenger of Allah peace and blessings of Allah be upon him like the battle of Badr, Uhud, Khaybar, Hunayn and the battle of Al-Ahzab (the coalition) and other battles, even if the battles vary by the inequality of men. So brothers do not be fed up by the presence of the enmities and obstacles that you will find on your way, since it is a constant universal tradition.
And we won’t retrieve our dignity and status among the nations except with two important matters, I keep them before you:
The first matter:
Holding to the Sharia of Allah and demanding its implementation in the real world, as a methodology of life and a system of state, and this is not just a desirable matter, but rather it is a required obligation, which the Muslim should seek for it with all his strength, and that he reject the other abominable calls of Jahiliya which we tasted and are still tasting because of it humiliation and degradation, and the young and old grew on it.
Happiness, security, success and economic prosperity is under the shadow of the Sharia of Allah Almighty, and that the political, social and economic corruption and the other disasters will be ratified in the absence of the Sharia of Allah, and replacing it with the garbage of the manmade laws.
The Truth Almighty says:
(And if they had kept up the Taurat and the Injeel and that which was revealed to them from their Lord…) 66 Surah Al-Maeda, and the Almighty says: (Say: O followers of the Book! you follow no good…) 68 Surah Al-Maeda, and the moral here is in the common phrase and not the specific reason (for occasion of revelation).
It has been authentically narrated from our prophet peace and blessing of Allah be upon him that he said: “I have left two things with you. As long as you hold fast to them, you will not go astray. They are the Book of Allah and my Sunnah”. And it has been mentioned in the Al-Musnad and Jamee Abu Essa Al-Tirmidhi from the Hadith of Abu Najeeh Al-Erbaz ibn Sariyah that our prophet peace and blessing of Allah be upon him: “Those who will live after me will see much dissension among the Muslims; so adhere to my Sunnah and the Sunnah way of the rightly guided successors after me”.
And I cannot forget before leaving this point to notify our people and loved ones in Tunis and Kairouan that they shouldn’t be deceived by the people who call to democracy by decorating it under the name of the truth and gave it a religious garment, who have misguided tendencies and the calls that deviate from the straight path that permeated in our societies until it reached a climax, and they aren’t hiding (And if We please We would have made you know them so that you would certainly have recognized them by their marks and most certainly you can recognize them by the intent of (their) speech) 30 Surah Muhammad, and it is true who said:
(Arabic poetry)
The people of evil are known by their semblance and the fingers point at their immorality
So beware from entering to their nets and being deceived by their falsehood…
Secondly:
My Muslim brothers in Tunis and Kairouan: we should be aware that uniting the word and rank is an order from Allah and His messenger peace and blessings of Allah be upon him in many authentic Hadiths and it is also a power for the Muslims, and it isn’t a secret that the enemies of our Ummah are waiting the befalling of calamities to it, they won’t agree that we raise a banner, or achieve a goal, and that is why if we remain in rivalry and dispute when will we liberate Bayt Al-Maqdis?… when will have time to support the Muslims and defend the honor of the religion?… if we use all our means to slander each other and everyone of us uses

Check out my new 'Policy Watch' for the Washington Institute: "Standoff Between the Tunisian Government and Ansar al-Sharia"
On May 10-11, Tunisian security services and police launched an unprecedented offensive against local Salafist group Ansar al-Sharia in Tunisia (AST), cracking down on members who were delivering public lectures or passing out their literature on the street. In response, AST leader Sheikh Abu Ayyad al-Tunisi made a veiled threat that youths would defend Islam in Tunisia just as they have in Afghanistan, Bosnia, Chechnya, Iraq, Somalia, and Syria — an indirect warning of potential full-blown jihad. Such a development would be a major break from Abu Ayyad’s public strategy over the past two years, in which he has argued that Tunisia is a land of dawa (i.e., proselytizing and associated Islamic outreach activities), not armed jihad. AST’s third annual conference in al-Qayrawan this weekend could help determine if the latest incident becomes a tipping point toward open conflict or an opportunity for both sides to back down.

New article from al-Qā’idah in the Islamic Maghrib’s Shaykh Aḥmad Abū ‘Abd al-Ilah: "The Algerian Regime and the Violation of Sanctity"
بسم الله الرحمــــــــــــــــــــــــــن الرحيم
نعم يحدث هذا في الجزائر وبالضبط في مدينة جيجل شرق العاصمة، في هذه المدينة المحافظة تجري فصول معركة أخرى من معارك اﻹسﻻم الخالدة ، أبطالها هذه المرة ليسوا علماء اﻷمة الصادقين وليسوا فرسانها المجاهدين ،ولكنهن بناتنا وأخواتنا العفيفات الطاهرات ،يخضن معركة الطهر والعفاف في جامعة جيجل،وبالضبط في حيها الجامعي للبنات،فهل تعلم الصحافة الجزائرية المسيرة ما يجري هناك؟وهل تعلم ما هي حقيقة وفصول هذه المعركة، وهي الصحافة التي ﻻتغيب عنها أدق التفاصيل عن الحرب المعلنة على اﻹرهاب، الذي مبناه واﻹسﻻم ؟أم أن صحافتنا الحرة للغاية صنفت تلك الفتيات في خانة اﻹرهاب ،فحق عليهن قانون التشويه والمقص القاسي؟….نترك ﻷحرار (صحافتنا الحرة للغاية) الجواب، واﻵن معا لكشف النقاب عن مسرح اﻷحداث وفصول المعركة:
إن حفيدات صفية رضي الله عنها ،يخضن معركة المسجد ….نعم معركة المسجد …إنهن يطالبن بمسجد صغير داخل الحي الجامعي للبنات ليقمن فيه الصلاة …ليسجدن فيه لله رب العالمين …ليعبدن ربهن الذي فطرهن…ليشكرن نعمه الظاهرة والباطنة عليهن…لينعمن بنعمة القرب من الله سبحانه والوقوف بين يديه أناء الليل وأطراف النهار….ليؤدين نعمة الشكر التي ﻻيفوق إليها إﻻ القليل من الناس في هذه الحياة كما قال سبحانه وتعالى [وقليل من عبادي الشكور].
لقد وقفت مديرة الحي الجامعي وإدارتها في وجههن وأبت اﻹستجابة لمطلبهن الذي ﻻ يتجاوز بناء مسجد صغير يذكر فيه اسم الله في بلد مسلم ،دفع أهله الكثيرمن أجل إسﻻمهم عبر التاريخ وبالضبط في مدينة محافظة ، لم تتخلف عن أي معركة من معارك اﻹسﻻم الخالدة ،منذ وطئت أرضها أقدام الفاتحين .
إن مديرة الحي الجامعي للبنات ليست شخصا معزوﻻ في هذه المعركة ،ولكنها تعبر عن تيار علماني حاقد على اﻹسﻻم ،مازال يحكم هذا الشعب المسلم اﻷبي ، ويريد خلعه عن دينه بطريقة ممنهجة ،في المدرسة والثانوية والجامعة والثكنة العسكرية ،فأبعدوا اﻹسﻻم من برامج التعليم والتكوين وفرضوا اﻹختﻻط ومنعوا المساجد ، في تحد سافر لله سبحانه ومشاعر هذا الشعب المسلم ، الذي لم يبغ يوما عن اﻹسﻻم بديﻻ،غير مبالين بوعيد الله الشديد في محكم التنزيل ، قال تعالى [ومن أظلم ممن منع مساجد الله أن يذكر فيها اسمه وسعى في خرابها أولئك ما كان لهم أن يدخلوها إﻻ خائفين لهم في الدنيا خزي و لهم في اﻵخرة عذاب عظيم].
إن معركة أخواتنا وبناتنا في جامعة جيجل هي فصل آخر من فصول معركة اﻹسﻻم الخالدة، ضد أبناء فرنسا وورثة منهجها الملوث ،في هذا البلد المسقي بدماء الشهداء على مر العصور، لتبقى شجرة اﻹسﻻم مورقة على أرضه إلى قيام الساعة يستظل بظلها أبناؤنا جيﻻ بعد جيل ،حتى يردوا الحوض على نبيهم عليه الصلاة والسلام ، غرا محجلين،ﻻمبدلين وﻻ مغيرين.
أمام إصرار المديرة المشؤومة على منع مسجد الله أن يذكر فيه اسمه،نهيب بإخواننا الطلبة في جامعة جيجل وسائر الجامعات في الجزائر بل وفي سائر بلدان المسلمين، أن يقفوا إلى جانب أخواتهم المغلوبات على أمرهن ، وإبراز قضيتهن للرأي العام ،ليشهد العالم أجمع على العداوة المتأصلة في حكومة بوتفليقة على اﻹسﻻم كل اﻹسلام وليس على تنظيم القاعدة وحده، كما تدعي وسائل اﻹعلام.
وفي الختام نؤكد دعمنا وتأييدنا لحفيدات صفية في دفاعهن عن دينهن وحرصهن على بناء مسجد يذكر فيه اسم الله وتقام فيه الصﻻة وينشر فيه العلم ويرفع فيه الجهل وتورث فيه معاني العزة واﻹعتزاز باﻹسﻻم لﻷجيال ،ومن يفعل الخير فلن يعدم جازيه.
[وقل اعملوا فسيرى الله عملكم ورسوله والمؤمنون وستردون إلى عالم الغيب والشهادة فينبئكم بما كنتم تعملون]
والحمد لله رب العالمين

New statement from al-Qā’idah in the Islamic Maghrib’s Shaykh Aḥmad Abū ‘Abd al-Ilah: "Algeria: The Military Regime and the Last Degrees of the Decay"
إن فرضية الإنتحار , أبعد ما تكون عن الحقيقة ,نظرا لواقع السجن وقوانينه الداخلية الصارمة , التي تجرد السجين من أبسط وسائل الحياة , وتمنع عنه حتى الملاعق الحديدية ثم شخصية السجين نفسه ,مدير عام أكبر شركة في الجزائر,وهو ما يضمن له سجنا مريحا قبل الخروج تحت طائلة قانون مفصل على مقاس اللصوص الكبار كما جرت العادة , ثم توقيت الإنتحار نفسه ,لماذا انتظر مدير سوناطراك كل هذه المدة وانتظرخروج رئيسه المباشر الممثل في وزير النفط شكيب خليل من الجزائر ثم حرق المحكمة المباشرة للتحقيق والحكم في القضية؟ لماذا انتظر حتى صار أهم شاهد في القضية ثم انتحر؟ ألا يدل هذا على أن مهرب الوزير شكيب خليل وحارق المحكمة وقاتل المدير (المنتحر) واحد , بهدف إيقاف زحف التحقيق نحو الأعلى؟
لقد صار صراع الأجهزة سمة بارزة لنظام مافياوي لا يتورع عن أي وسيلة تضمن لرؤوسه العفنة, البقاء والسيطرة على موارد البلد التي حولوها إلى ملك خاص , ينفقونه حسب أهوائهم وشهواتهم, بعيدا عن رقابة هذا الشعب المسكين الذي طحنه الجوع والمرض, واختزل دوره في مجرد ورقة انتخابية , موجهة للإستهلاك الإعلامي ,لاأكثر و لا أقل . لقد وصل نظام العسكر في الجزائر إلى نهايته , وأوصل الجزائر إلى حافة الهاوية , وعلى الشعب الجزائري المسلم عامة , وشبابه التواق إلى الحرية والكرامة خاصة أن يبادروا إلى التغيير الجاد , واسترجاع زمام المبادرة من لصوص لاخلق لهم و لا دين , و لايفهمون إلا لغة القوة والإنتفاضة الشعبية العارمة ,انتفاضة صادقة شجاعة ,تقتلع جذور الخيانة وترجع البلد إلى الأيدي المتوضئة الأمينة , قبل أن تغرق السفينة , بما فيها ومن فيها , وحينها لن ينفع الندم .إن كل يوم يمر على عصابة بوتفليقة وتوفيق في الحكم هو خطوة نحو الهاوية , وجريمة في حق جيل اليوم والأجيال القادمة , فالبدار البدار يا شباب الجزائر الأحرار ,فإن للحرية باب بكل يد مضرجة يدق , ألا نامت أعين الجبناء.(والله غالب على أمره ولكن أكثر الناس لا يعلمون ) والحمد لله رب العالمين
