New statement from the Anṣār al-Mujāhidīn English Forum: "Marking the Martyrdom of Imām Anwar al-'Awlaqī and Samīr Khān"

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin


“Never fearing the blame of the blamers” 

In the name of Allah, the Most Kind, the Most Merciful.
The Islamic Ummah has heard confirmation today that Imam Anwar al-Awlaki and three of his brothers were martyred by US missiles in Yemen.
We ask Allah (SWT) to have mercy on all of those martyred, and to grant them the highest levels of Paradise. We at the AMEF ask Allah to accept the martyrdom of all four of the brothers. In this brief statement we would like to focus especially on the two brothers we knew best: two brothers who have done an enormous amount of work to spread Glad Tidings to English-speaking Muslims across the globe.
This is not meant to be a wistful lament for the passing of our brothers, but rather a celebration of their accomplishments in the dunya, and congratulations for transaction which they have concluded, which was indeed their supreme achievement.
For Allah (SWT) says:
“And say not of those who are killed in Allah’s cause: “They are dead” Rather they are alive, but you perceive not” [Surah al-Baqarah: 154] And He (SWT) also tells us:
“Allah hath purchased of the Believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, the Gospel, and the Qur’an: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the supreme achievement” [Surah At-Tawbah: 111] Imam Anwar al-Awlaki: The Imam was the perfect example of that rarest and most precious of commodities: a righteous scholar who speaks the Truth.
While the West has waged war against Muslims from Iraq to Afghanistan the Ulema in the West have remained silent. Allah knows best whether they are afraid of being thrown into prison, or of being deported from their new homes, or simply of losing the power and prestige they have found themselves growing increasingly fond of, the fact remains they have been silent. Imam Anwar al-Awlaki was an anomaly in that he spoke the Truth and did not fear the consequences.
As Allah (SWT) says:
“O you who believe! Whoever from among you turns back from his religion, Allah will bring a people whom He will love and they will love Him; humble towards the Believers, stern towards the Disbelievers, fighting in the Way of Allah, and never fearing the blame of the blamers” [Al-Maidah: 54] The Imam was well aware that he could be imprisoned for what he said, that he could be denied visas to travel to other Western nations, that he could become a social pariah – a stranger in his own land.
As the Imam of the Mujahideen – Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
“Islam began as something strange, and it shall return to being something strange, so give Glad Tidings to the strangers” [Sahih Muslim] But even among the very few scholars who dare to speak the Truth, Imam Anwar al-Awlaki was still a rarity. For he was not content to merely talk about Jihad, he wanted to ‘practice what he preached’. He left a comfortable life in America and made Hijrah to Yemen, and joined his brothers in Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.
It has been ten long years since the start of the Crusader war on Afghanistan – who can honestly still say that the time is not right for them to make Hijrah, that they are still making preparations?
Hasn’t Allah (SWT) warned us about those who are forever ‘preparing’ for Hijrah and Jihad:
“If they had intended to come out, they would certainly have made some preparation therefor; but Allah was averse to their being sent forth; so He made them lag behind, and they were told, “Sit ye among those who sit (inactive)” [Surah at-Tawbah: 46] Even imprisoning the Sheikh did not silence him, it only seems to have spurred him on to continue his dawah.
The Sheikh was insulted, cursed, belittled and hit with a constant streams of accusations. But never once did his resolve waver, nor once did he compromise his Faith, never once did he fear the blame of the blamers!
Samir Khan: Our brother Samir, may Allah have mercy on him, is well-known to all the members of the English-speaking jihadi forums. He was a frequent contributor on the forums, and via his blogs, until he also decided to answer the call of Amir Abu Baseer (may Allah protect him) and make Hijrah to Yemen.
It is worth pointing out that brother Samir left his home and family, knowing that he would be called an extremist, knowing he would face many hardships along the way, and knowing that he would most likely never return.
Our brother used the same online username consistently: Inshallahshaheed. Let us ponder this fact for a moment: brother Samir, may Allah have mercy on him, was seeking martyrdom right from the start. After he proved his intentions were sincere – by actually making Hijrah and not just talking about it – Allah granted him that which he sought so earnestly (we reckon him to be so, and Allah is his Reckoner)
Our brother Samir, may Allah have mercy on him, joins the long and illustrious list of brothers from the forums who have been martyred in the path of Allah. The list includes names that will live long in Islamic history, such as Abu Dujana al-Khurasani from Al-Hesbah and Mu’sab Sayyid from Al-Firdaus, but it also contains the names of many brothers who weren’t as well known.
Like the heroes Abu Dujanah al-Khurasani and Mu’sab Sayyid (may Allah have mercy on them both) Samir has left us with much beneficial material, compiled before his date with destiny. Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “When a man dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: Sadaqah Jariyah (ceaseless charity); knowledge which is beneficial; or a virtuous descendant who prays for him” [Sahih Muslim] We ask Allah that the sermons of Imam Anwar and the writings of Samir Khan continue to ‘Inspire the Believers’, and continue to add to the balance of their good deeds.
We ask the brothers involved in producing English-language jihadi material to redouble their efforts, so that we actually see an increase in the quality and quantity of English-language jihadi material being produced, instead of a decrease as the Kuffar are hoping.
We ask Allah to make the brothers at AMEF, GIMF, Dar al-Murabiteen, Ansurullah and all other English-language jihadi media outlets successful in their attempts to assist His Deen.
We ask Allah to unite their vision, fortify their ranks, and protect them from the plots of the Murtadeen and the Kuffar.
Through these brothers Allah “will disgrace them and assist you over them, and He will soothe the hearts of the Believers” [Surah at-Tawbah: 14] And our final prayer is that all praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.

New statement from the Anṣār al-Mujāhidīn English Forum: "A Statement Marking 10 Years Since the Start of the Crusader War on Afghanistan"

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin


In the name of Allah, the Most Kind, the Most Merciful.

It has now been 10 years since the start of the brutal Zionist-Crusader war on the long-suffering Afghan people. On October 7th 2001 virtually the entire Western world joined the Zionist-Crusader war on the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.
And while many Mujahideen have been martyred, including some of the noble leadership, and had to endure much suffering, the tide of battle has finally turned in their favor.
Amir ul-Mumineen Mullah Muhammad Omar Mujahid (may Allah protect him) promised that this year’s fighting season would be the most successful from the entire decade of Jihad against the Americans; and he has been true to his word!
The Crusaders are being made to taste defeat on a daily basis – and each defeat they taste now is merely an appetizer for the final defeat that awaits them, when they finally flee Afghanistan – never to return.
The Crusaders are being attacked in devastating new ways, and all their technology is powerless to defend them. They are being attacked in a multitude of new places across the country, areas they had previously felt secure in. They are being killed again and again by Mujahideen who have successfully infiltrated the security forces, to such an extent that there is no longer a single puppet that is fully trusted by his Masters.
The Crusaders – principally those from Canada and France – are tripping over themselves in their rush to escape from the Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. America and Britain will soon find that all of their coalition partners have deserted them, and left them to be annihilated by the Mujahideen.
On the other hand, in the ranks of the Mujahideen the situation is the exact opposite. The Mujahideen are increasing in number and morale every single day, and Allah bestows victory after victory upon them. The Mujahideen are securing town after town, district after district, indeed they are now controlling parts of Afghanistan that they did not control during the glorious rule of the Emirate prior to the Crusader invasion in 2001. The Mujahideen are seeing wave after wave of defections to their ranks – as puppet police and soldiers see the error of their ways and seek to atone for their evil deeds. The Mujahideen are more united than ever before as fighters and groups from numerous different ethnic backgrounds have all united with the Amir ul-Mumineen and under the banner of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.
The recent deaths of the Apostates Ahmad Wali Karzai and Burhanudin Rabbani has shown that none of the puppets are safe any longer: no matter how many bodyguards they choose to surround themselves with, nor how many walls they try to hide behind.
The defeat of the Americans in Afghanistan has now become inevitable – it is a question of “when” and not “if” they will be defeated.
The Mujahideen and their supporters have always known this day would be imminent (by the leave of Allah), but it has taken a whole decade for many other people to realize the reality of the situation.
Indeed, despite the fact that the Mujahideen had already humbled one of the world’s two ‘Super Powers’ in Afghanistan, the Disbelievers seemed to think that humbling the second – and sole remaining – ‘Super Power’ was simply impossible. What the Disbelievers failed to take into account was that – with the aid of Allah – nothing is impossible for the Mujahideen!
And as for the recent comment by Leon Panetta that the defeat of ‘Al-Qaeda’ (the blanket label under which all Jihad against the Crusaders is known) is now within reach – that all that remains is to eliminate a few more key individuals?! Have you not seen that as Allah bestows Martyrdom on one of the Believers that dozens, hundreds or thousands of others rush to take his place?
Following the martyrdom of heroes such as Sheikh Abdullah Azzam, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, Abu Laith al-Libi, Abu Hamza al-Muhajir, Abu Umar al-Baghdadi and most recently the Lion of Islam Sheikh Usama bin Laden (may Allah have Mercy on them All) have other men not immediately stepped into their place?
Do you really think that martyring ten to twenty individuals in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia will end the Jihad against the United States – that the remaining one billion Muslims will simply submit to your will?
We say: Where you to martyr one billion Muslims and as long as ten to twenty Muslim men remained on Allah’s earth the Jihad against you would not cease!
Jihad will continue till the Day of Judgement and the black banners of Tawhid will spread from Afghanistan across the entire earth, with the permission of Allah!

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

Salaam Alaykom wa rahmatollah wa barakatuh,
in the name of Allah,most gracious,most merciful.
Praise be to Allah, Lord of Creation; Lord and Supporter of the oppressed monotheists; Breaker and Vanquisher of unjust tyrants. Peace and blessings be upon the Seal of the Prophets, and their master; Imam and exemplar of the Mujahideen; and upon his household and his companions and those guided by his guidance; revive his Sunnah until the Day of Judgment. 
(4) Cursed were the companions of the trench (5) [Containing] the fire full of fuel (6) When they were sitting near it (7) And they, to what they were doing against the believers, were witnesses (8)And they resented them not except because they believed in Allah , the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy (9) To whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And Allah , over all things, is Witness (10) Indeed, those who have tortured the believing men and believing women and then have not repented will have the punishment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the Burning Fire. (Quran 85:4-10)
Imagine my dear Muslim brother!
Imagine my dear Muslim sister!
The Forgotten (….?….)
Sitting alone in the underground prisons .Your bed is the prison floor, your pillow is a folded up towel and your blanket is the prison ceiling. Imagine! that you don’t know when it’s day or night. Sometimes you hear the foot steps of a guard but you can’t see him because there is no light. There is no light except for the light what is reflecting on the faces of the believers. Imagine! you hear the screams and horror of a brother who is being tortured or a sister who is being raped during day and night. Imagine! you can’t tell the difference between the scream of a sister and a brother. Imagine! your hear the prisoners threatening to kill themselves if the guards continue with the torture. Imagine! you hear some brothers or sisters talk with imaginary people who don’t exist. Imagine! a guard who is abusing the Quran in front of your cell and you are sitting naked on the ground and can’t do anything. Imagine! a guard is cursing the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his wives. Imagine! You smell burning and see smoke coming from the other side of the prison. You ask your self where this smoke is coming from? After a while they come to your prison and sett your beard on fire. Imagine! Your mother who is crying at the gates of the prison after she walked hours to reach the prison. Imagine!you see the guards carrying the body of a brother or sister who died under torture. Imagine! a brother or sister who is saying in his last minute of life “O’ Allah your servants have forsaken me! O’ Allah forsake them just they have forsaken me!”
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Feed the hungry, visit the sick and set free the captives.” Sahih Al-Bukhari, Volume 7, Hadith 552
My dear Muslim brothers and sisters are we the people of “we hear and obey” or the people of we “hear” but do not listen.
Is this hadith of the Prophet Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) not enough for you to act upon it?!
Al-Izz bin Abdus-Salam said (Page 97 from Ahkam Al-Jihad wa Fadailihi):
Rescuing the Muslim prisoners from the hands of the disbelievers is one of the best means of coming close to Allah. Some of the scholars have said: “If even one Muslim is captured, it becomes compulsory upon us to persevere in fighting the disbelieving enemy until we either free the Muslim captives or destroy the disbelieving enemy. Therefore, what do you say if they capture a large number of Muslims!?”
Sheikh-ul-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah said (Al-Fatawa 28/635):
Freeing the prisoners is one of the greatest compulsory deeds and spending ransom money and other means towards that, is one of the greatest ways to come close to Allah. 
My dear brothers, In my previous article of advice I encouraged the Ansar to seek knowledge in all different fields which will benefit the Ummah. Again I want to make sure if you understand what I mean. The cause why many brothers are captured by the taghut governments have to do with lack of knowledge. Sometimes we read stories about brothers who ordered explosive materials from the internet or they had contacts with agents who pretended to be “brothers”. Every time we hear the same story again and again. Don’t we get frustrated every time we hear the same story? From America to Indonesia we always hear the same. But there is something more frustrating. When a Kafir wants to execute an operation he always finds a way to succeed. For example, the kafir who executed the operations in Norway. This kafir worked alone and managed to place a bomb at an Oslo government building and gunedown more than 80 people at the youth camp.
Back to the main subject. 
I know it’s difficult to free prisoners from heavy fortified prisons. But this doesn’t mean we should stop with seeking knowledge in how to organize a prison break. If we only begin with freeing the prisoners in the lands of jihad this will open many doors. Imagine how the enemy would react if we execute operations like the Qandahar,Mosul prison break or the one in Mukalla. These operations will strengthen jihad and demotivate the enemy. Some of you are thinking that you have to kill hundreds of soldiers before you can reach the brothers. if we read the story of the prison break in Mukalla in Yemen we will find that only ONE security personnel was killed. Do you know why? Because the brothers who executed the operation had sufficient knowledge of planning, Management, warfare and not to forget patience.
Patience is also very important when seeking knowledge or planning an operation. For example; its very difficult to make a hole into massive rock. You will probably use a big hammer and a peace of metal to break the rock. If you don’t work with precision you will break your thumb while beating the rock. After a while you will give up and walk away. while you’re walking you get thirsty and want drink water. In the far distance you noticed a waterfall. you walked to the waterfall and see a big massive rock with a hole in it. You imagined how this whole came in this massive rock. after a minute or two you saw something amazing. you noticed that the water drops were falling on the massive rock which caused the hole in the rock. 
What I’m trying to say with this example is that, it takes allot of patient and research to reach your destination. Don’t get frustrated when seeking knowledge and training. Know that you are doing this for the sake of Allah (SWT).
I can write hundreds of pages about this subject but sometimes few words have more impact than a whole sea of words.
Take a lesson from my signature (Image) before our prisoners say “O’ Allah your servants have forsaken me! O’ Allah forsake them just they have forsaken me!”

I pray that Allah Almighty dispose our hearts in obedience to Him and to make us steadfast in His Religion; and to use us to champion His Religion and its proponents. I pray that He makes possible for us the path to meet and for Him to be pleased with us, to enable us to glorify the obedient people and humiliate the disobedient people. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of all that exists.
If I said anything correct, then it is from Allah (subhanahu wa taa’ala), and if I erred, then that is from me and shaytan.
Was salaam,
The poor and weak servant of Allah

Salaam Alaykom wa rahmatollah wa barakatuh,
in the name of Allah,most gracious,most merciful.

Praise be to Allah, Lord of Creation; Lord and Supporter of the oppressed monotheists; Breaker and Vanquisher of unjust tyrants. Peace and blessings be upon the Seal of the Prophets, and their master; Imam and exemplar of the Mujahideen; and upon his household and his companions and those guided by his guidance; revive his Sunnah until the Day of Judgment. 
81. And say: “The truth has come, and falsehood has vanished. Surely falsehood is ever bound to vanish by its very nature.”
There is no doubt that all Muslims on the face of the earth want to see the Ummah of the Prophet Muhammed SAS live in peace and harmony. The way towards peace and harmony is very difficult and full of trials and sacrifices. Many Muslims from all around the world are claiming that they have the keys to peace and harmony. From Morocco to Indonesia we have thousands of ‘Islamic groups” who claim to be on the truth. These groups have beautiful names like “The supporters of Sharia, The Muslim brotherhood, The group of D’awa, The Party of Islam, justice and development parties and the list goes on. All of these groups want to represent the Ummah and lead it towards peace and harmony.
The big question is, which group has the best tools and resources to lead the Ummah? Every member who is part of the above mentioned groups will claim that his group is the answer to the question. If you ask them about the Quran and the Sunnah their reply is “we are the true followers of the Quran and the Sunnah”. If you ask their opinion about the other groups they will say that the other groups have many misconceptions and are following falsehood. So we get a situation where everyone is happy with that which he follows.
But people have cut off their affair (of unity), between them, into sects: each party rejoices in that which is with itself. (Quran 23:53)
The Prophet Muhammed SAS said: “My Ummah will be fragmented into seventy-three (73) sects. All of them will be in Hell Fire except one sect. They (the Companions) said: Allah’s Messenger, which is that? Whereupon he said: It is one to which I and my companions belong“. [Tirmidhi. 171]
So there is no chance on the full unity which we all hope for?! If the prophet Muhammed SAS said that we will be divided into 73 sects we will be divided.
Another Question came to my mind, Which group belongs to the save sect which the prophet Muhammed SAS mentioned in the following Hadith?

The Prophet Muhammed SAS said “A group of my Ummah shall remain steadfast, on the truth, victorious, unharmed by those who oppose them, and do not support them, until the death or until the Day of Resurrection.”
So we have dozens of groups which all claim that they are the saved sect and they all claim that the other groups are the deviant sects.
What is our responsibility? 
The followers of the Salafi jihadi movement made a big mistake when they approached the books of Islamic Knowledge. You will find many supporters of the Mujahideen who claim to be a follower of the Salafi jihadi movement but doesn’t know what it means to be follower of this path. He or she thinks that by repeating some words of the Jihadi leaders he is doing enough. You will hear pro jihadi Muslims speaking about implementing sharia and he or she doesn’t know the true meaning of the testimony of faith.
We also find this problem in the fields of worldly knowledge. There are some supporters who talk about executing operations or establishing a jihadi group without any knowledge about warfare and management. Instead of seeking knowledge about our religion and other beneficial subjects we are wasting our time with knowledge which the prophet peace be upon him refrained from.
Abu Hurairah t narrated that Allâh’s Messenger r said, “The knowledge from which no benefit is derived is like a treasure out of which nothing is spent in the cause of Allâh.” (Tirmidhi 280)
My advice to the Salafi jihadi supporters is to study their religion and seek knowledge in all fields which will benefit the Ummah.
Here is a story which will give you an idea about seeking knowledge
There was a senior student of knowledge who entered a Masjid in Baghdad. He entered the Masjid and prayed Asr. When he finished praying the Imam stood up and began to give a speech about aqeedah. When the student of knowledge listened to the Imam he was shocked. He stood up and said to the people that the Imam is preaching deviant ideas. The people asked the Student to clarify his claim. So the student started to explain to the people with Quran and Sunnah. When the Imam saw that the student has more knowledge than him he started to pack his bags and told he people he is leaving. The people of the masjid asked him why? he said that Allah is testing him! He said that Allah has sent a devil to the mosque who is going to led the people astray. They asked him to show them this devil. The Imam pointed his finger to the student of knowledge. The people in the Masjid began to beat the student until they broke his hands,nose and blood was coming out of his head. The Student ran away and left Baghdad for al-Mosul. The student went to his scholar and told him what happened. The Scholar laughed and told him that he needs to seek knowledge in the field of human behavior. So the student began to work with all kind of people. He worked on farms, sea, markets and other places. After 2 years he returned to the Masjid in Baghdad. He entered the Masjid and prayed Asr. Again the Imam stood up and began to preach his deviant ideas. The student stood up and said Subhan’Allah! I have dreamed something about you. The Imam said what did you dream? The student said “I dreamed that Allah chose you to be on of the righteous servants who are blessed. The Imam replied, what did Allah SWT bless me with? The Student said “Allah has blessed your long beard. The people asked the student what for blessing is in his beard? The student replied “if you pluck some hairs from the facial hair of the Imam you will get allot money and many other worldly things. before the Imam moved one step towards the door of the Masjid, all the people jumped on him and began to pluck his beard. In Les than 10 second the Imam was covered with blood and was plucked from his facial hair. The student of knowledge walked towards the Imam and said to him do you remember the devil who came to the Masjid to led the people astray? The Imam stood up and began to cry and asked him for forgiveness. After the whole event the Student traveled to al-Mosul to seek tazkiyah from his scholars. They asked him where he disappeared for the last 2 years. he told them the whole story and got his tazkiyah. (End of story)
What I’m trying to say with this story is that we don’t need to become programmed androids who repeat what they hear. We need to begin with seeking knowledge in all beneficial fields so that we can win the war of hearts and minds. Establishing an Islamic state is not possible if we don’t have people who can operate in different fields. We need to outsmart the other groups and spread our influence in the communities.
We need to remove false negative ideas which many Muslims have about us. Many people think that we are only good in killing and destruction.
*** So seek (authentic) Islamic knowledge -whatever is your job ***
*** For there’s no job better than being a true servant of Allah ***
(Maryam .M)
I pray that Allah Almighty dispose our hearts in obedience to Him and to make us steadfast in His Religion; and to use us to champion His Religion and its proponents. I pray that He makes possible for us the path to meet and for Him to be pleased with us, to enable us to glorify the obedient people and humiliate the disobedient people. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of all that exists.
If I said anything correct, then it is from Allah (subhanahu wa taa’ala), and if I erred, then that is from me and shaytan.

Anṣār al-Mujāhidīn English Forum presents an English translation of al-Malāḥim Media's release for al-Qā’idah in the Arabian Peninsula: "Who are the Mujāhidīn in the Arabian Peninsula? Within the Da’wah series of 'This is Our Call' Number #5"

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin


Nasheed:
I am going with the light of truth radiant in my blood
I am going with the banners of piety as my title
I am going with the treasures of Muhammad upon my lips
And my heartbeats are poems of Faith 
Al-Malahim Media:
Praise be to Allah, blessings and peace upon the Messenger of Allah, our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family, his companions and supporters.
To proceed:
There has been increasing talk among the people concerning recent events in the Arabian Peninsula pertaining to the barbaric American bombing of Abyan, Shabwah, Arhab, Ma’areb, al-Ajashir and preceding events.

The time has come for the Ummah to listen to the words of the Mujahideen fi sabeel Allah. Therefore beseeching the help of Allah Almighty, we say: The Mujahideen are part of this Ummah, and we have witnessed our Ummah living a reality of submissiveness, humiliation and subjugation by the Crusaders, Jews and apostates. 
In the greatest theft in history, the wealth of current and future generations has been plundered in collusion between the Crusaders and the lackey rulers. The Ummah has been living this tragedy since the fall of the Islamic Caliphate. The forces of global unbelief, led by the protector of the Cross; America, have pounced on the Muslims and allied themselves in a global campaign against terrorism. They came against the Muslims with all their horses and men. They plotted and executed and continue to execute all that they can in their war against Islam and the Muslims. This matter does not need to be proven, because it is seen and felt by the people in Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan, the Arabian Peninsula and elsewhere among the countries of Islam.
America’s lackey, client regimes have aided it in this dirty war, by the government of Pakistan, the government of Yemen, the Saudi regime and the Egyptian regime who have opened (their) countries to the Crusaders so they could use the military basesto attack and kill Muslims. They gave them oil and intelligence and besieged our brothers in Palestine (just look at Gaza). They pursued and imprisoned the free sons of Muslims who desired to aid their brethren and to be governed by the Shari’ah of their Lord. These governments are the primary obstacle on the road to liberating the Muslims and restoring their honor and glory. This is the bitter reality to which there is no solution except returning to the Deen of Allah and Jihad fi sabeel Allah. The Almighty said, “Then fight in Allah’s cause – thou are held responsible only for thyself- and arouse the Believers. It may be that Allah will restrain the fury of the Unbelievers; for Allah is the strongest in might and punishment.”
The Muslims are one Ummah. There is no difference among a Yemeni, a Najdi, a northerner, a southerner, an Arab and a foreigner except piety. All the wealth of the Arabian Peninsula in petroleum, gas, gold, etc… belongs to the treasury of the Muslims and must be justly distributed among the Muslims. The lackey governments have no right to plunder this wealth and hand it over to the Americans or anyone else so that they can use it to kill Muslims.
The goals the Mujahideen are trying to achieve:
1) Expel the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula, thereby carrying out the instruction of the Messenger of Allah, prayers and peace of Allah be upon him, who said,”I will expel the Jews and Christian from the Arabian Peninsula so that none are left but the Muslims”.
2) Liberate the land, sea and air of the Muslim countries, and defend the honor and wealth of the Muslims. Establish the Islamic Caliphate and Shari’ah rule which the apostate governments have suspended. Allah Almighty said, “And fight them until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in Allah altogether and everywhere; but if they cease, verily Allah doth see all that they do.”

Spread security in society so that justice and goodness prevail among all Muslims. The Almighty said, “It is those who believe and confuse not their beliefs with wrong – that are (truly) in security, for they are one (right) guidance.”
