UPDATE 5/6 3:12 PM: Here is an English translation of the statement below:
Jamadi-ul-Thani 02, 1432 A.H, Friday, May 06, 2011
In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
“Among the believers, there are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah. Some fulfilled their vow by death and some are still awaiting and they have not changed in the least”.
(The Holy Quran, Surah 33. “The Clans”, verse 23)
The Caller to Islamic Jihad against the invading infidels, Sheikh Osama bin Laden, embraced martyrdom as per the Will of the Almighty Allah during an abrupt attack by the American invading soldiers. (We are creation of Allah and return to Him.)
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan extends its deep condolence to the family of the martyr, to his followers and to fighter Mujahideen of the way of Truth and to the Islamic Ummah on this occasion of the great tragedy. We pray to the Almighty Allah to accept, in His Sight, the sacrifice of the martyr. May, the Almighty Allah, salvage the Islamic Ummah from the current situation of crisis due to the impact of the blessing of the sacred Jihad and martyrdom of the martyr.
The martyr took part in the Jihad against the Soviet invasion with great honesty and bravery shoulder to shoulder with the Afghans. He offered such sacrifices in this way that the history of the Islamic Ummah will for ever remain proud of. Sheikh Osama bin Laden was the ardent advocate of the legitimate cause of the first Qibla of the Muslims, the Aqsa Mosque and the occupied Palestine . He was an indefatigable fighter against the Christian and Jewish aggressions in the Islamic World and was not sparing any effort in this cause. The life of this Mujahid, who felt the antagonism against Islam, was full of fatigues, sacrifices and hardships. The history of Islam will always keep their memory alive.
The way of Jihad and the path of defense of Islam is a way fraught with sacrifices and martyrdoms. Like any other follower of this way, Sheikh Osama had been aspiring to attain martyrdom in the cause of the Almighty Allah. He reached his ambition with bravery, dedication and commitment in the last moments of his life.
If the invading Americans and their Allies wallow in this optimism that the morale and ranks of Mujahideen will weaken in Afghanistan and other occupied Islamic countries following the martyrdom of Sheikh Osama bin Laden, it will only show their lack of insight. The sapling of Jihad has always grown, spruced and reached fructification through irrigation by pure blood. The martyrdom of a martyr leads to hundreds more to head to the field of martyrdom and sacrifice.
The current Jihadic movement of Afghanistan sprouted from among the masses and is representative of the aspirations of this proud people. In this land of the braves, a strike by colonialism breeds sympathy and produces (an urge) to strike back. If the Mujahid people were prone to submit to force and tyranny, then is there any gimmick both in terms of military muscles showdown and other devilish conspiracies that has been left by the Americans during the last decade? But the ground realities have it that the use of force brings in opposite consequences here. This popular movement can be bracketed with a spring which, when you pressurize, bounces back with the same intensity.
The Islamic Emirate believes, the martyrdom of Sheikh Osama bin Laden will give a new impetus to the current Jihad against the invaders in this critical phase of Jihad. The tides of Jihad will gain strength and width. The forthcoming time will prove this both for the friends and the foes, if God willing.
The Leadership Council of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan

(مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ رِجَالٌ صَدَقُوا مَا عَاهَدُوا اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِ فَمِنْهُم مَّن قَضَى نَحْبَهُ وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَنتَظِرُ وَمَا بَدَّلُوا تَبْدِيلاً)الأحزاب23
بقلوب مؤمنة بقدر الله وصابرة على قضائه تلقينا نبأ استشهاد الشيخ أبو عبد الله أسامة بن محمد بن لادن رحمه الله في هجوم مباغت للقوات الأمريكية المعتدية . إنّا لله و إنّا إليه راجعون.
إنّ إمارة أفغانستان الإسلامية تقدّم مواساتها في هذه المصيبة العظيمة للأمة الإسلامية جمعاء، و لأسرة الشهيد، ولأتباعه، و لجميع المجاهدين، و تسأل الله تعالى أن يتقبل من الشيخ الشهيد تضحيّاته، و أن ينجّي الأمة الإسلامية من الوضع المأساوي الراهن ببركة جهاده ، و استشهاده في سبيله.
إن الشهيد – رحمه الله تعالى- كان من حماة جهاد الأفغان الإسلامي ضد الإتحاد السوفيتي المعتدي، و اشترك بكل إخلاص و شجاعة في الجهاد مع الأفغان إلى أن خرجت القوّات السوفيتية الغازية من أفغانستان. و قد قدّم في الجهاد في سبيل الله من التضحيات العظيمة ما سيفتخر بها تاريخ أمة الإسلام دوماً.
وعلاوة على هذا فإنّ الشيخ الشهيد- رحمه الله تعالى- كان من أقوى المدافعين عن قضية قبلة المسلمين الأولى،قضية الأقصى و فلسطين المحتلة الإسلامية، كما أنّه كان أعظم مجاهد لا يعرف الكلل في كفاحه ضدّ الاعتداآت الصهيو الصليبية في العالم الإسلامي أجمع.
كان – رحمه الله – يشارك المسلمين في مآسيهم و مصائبهم في كل أرجاء العالم، و كان يدافع عن المسلمين المستضعفين والمجاهدين والمهاجرين. و كان لا يتوقّف أبدا عن التضحية في سبيل حرّيّة الأمة الإسلامية، و نصرتها، وإسعادها.
إنّ حياة هذا المجاهد المتألم للإسلام كانت حافلة بالمشاقّ، و المتاعب، و التضحيات، و سيحتفظ تاريخ الإسلام ذكراه حيّة للأجيال القادمة.
وبما أنّ طريق الجهاد والدفاع عن الإسلام هو طريق التضحيّات، و الفداء، و الإستشهاد، والشهيد أسامة- رحمه الله- كأيّ مجاهد آخر كان يتمنى الشهادة في هذا السبيل، فها هو اليوم نال أمنيّته بكلّ رجولة و غيرة على الإسلام، نسأل الله تعالى أن يتقبله ويرزقه الفردوس الأعلى.
إن کان الأمریکیون المحتلّون و حلفاؤهم یظنون أن صفوف المجاهدین و معنویاتهم القتالیة في أفغانستان وغیرها من البلاد المحتلّة ستضعف بمقتل الشیخ أسامة بن لادن رحمة الله علیه، فإن هذا یدلّ علی سذاجة تفکیر الأمریکیین وعدم إدراکهم لمعاني الجهاد و الاستشهاد.
لأن شجرة الجهاد ارتوت، و ترعرت، و أثمرت دوماً من دماء الشهداء الزکیة. و بعد استشهاد کلّ شهید یتقدّم مئة آخرون إلی میادین التضحیة والفداء .
ولتعلم أمريكا أن الحرکة الجهادیة الموجودة الآن في أفغانستان نشأت من وسط الشعب الأفغاني، وهي تعبّر عن مشاعر وآمال هذا الشعب الأبيّ. وکل ضربة من المحتلّین في هذا البلد تُوَلّد ردّ فعل أقوی من الضربة، وتوجِد تضامناً من الشعب للمجاهدین .
ولوکان هذا الشعب المؤمن یستسلم لقوة العدوّ واستکباره لا ستسلم للقوّة العسکرية الشیطانیة الأمریکیة خلال عشر سنوات ماضیة. ولکن التجارب والواقع أثبتا أن نتائج إعمال القوّة في هذا البلد تکون معکوسة، و أن مَثَل هذه الحرکة الشعبیة مِثل حرکة نابذ الإرجاع الذي کلّما وقع علیه الضغط أکثر، کان دفعه الإرجاعي أقوی.
إن إمارة أفغانستان الإسلامیة تعتقد أن استشهاد الشیخ أسامة رحمة الله عليه في هذه المرحلة الحسّاسة من الجهاد سینفخ روحاً جدیدة في الجهاد ضدّ المحتلّین، وسیُهّیج الموجات الجهادیة أکثر وأکثر.
وسیثبت الزمن القادم للصدیق والعدوّ معاً- إن شاء الله تعالی – صدق ما نقوله.
الشورى القيادي لإمارة أفغانستان الإسلامية

Update 5/6 8:39 AM: Via CNN, here is an English translation of the below statement:
Al-Qaeda statement calls the day ” a historic day of the days of the great Islamic umma (nation) and in a noble stand of one of its great men and heroes across its blessed age and on the path taken by the will of all the mighty predecessors and those who will follow them, the Sheikh, the Mujahid & the Commander, the pious migrant fighter, Abu Abdullah Osama bin Muhammad bin Laden, may God have mercy on him was killed in a place where truth shines and where sincerity for good deeds and the call for truthfulness exist. Bin Laden was killed so he can follow the mighty caravan of the umma (the nation) with the great leaders, the loyal soldiers, and the honest knights who refused to abandon their faith for the mundane lives and to hand over the command to those who will be humiliate them and be humiliated and that’s why they confronted the weaponry with weaponry, force with force and accepted to challenge the arrogant masses that came out to fight with their killing machines, equipments, aircrafts and forces boastfully so they can be seen as men, and still this didn’t weaken their resolve and didn’t drain their strength, but instead he stood up for them face to face, a mighty mountain, a proud mountain and he was still in the midst of the battle that many got used to and his eyes were used to its sceneries but after that, he was yet to be excused and delivered his message and then he was shot bullets of betrayal and blasphemy delivering his soul to its maker while repeating: ‘Who sacrifice the blessed soul for his Lord to fight off the falsehood CANNOT ever be blamed’.”
“Congratulations to the Islamic Nation on the martyrdom of their devoted son Osama,
Even when the Americans managed to kill Osama, they managed to do ONLY that by disgrace and betrayal. Men and heroes only should be confronted in the battlefields but at the end, that’s God’s fate. Still we ask, will the Americans be able thru their media outlets, their agents, their instruments, soldiers, intelligence services and their might be able to kill what Sheikh Osama lived for and was killed for? How far! How impossible! Sheikh Osama didn’t build an organization that will vanish with his death or fades away with his departure.
In this context, we in al Qaeda Jihad organization promise God Almighty and we ask Him for help, support and steadfastness to continue on the path of jihad that our leaders, led by Sheikh Osama chose, and that we will not be reluctant, and will not deviate from that honorable path until God be the final judge between us and our enemy.
We also stress that the blood of the mujahid sheikh Osama bin Laden, may God have mercy on him is VERY dear to us and more precious to us and to every Muslim from being shed in vain and this blood (OBL’s blood) will be a curse that will chase the Americans and their agents, a curse that will pursue them inside and outside their country, and soon – with God’s help – we pray that their happiness turns into sorrow and may their bloods mix with their tears and let Sheikh Osama’s resonate again that “America will neither enjoy nor live in security until our people in Palestine live it and enjoy it. The soldiers of Islam in groups and as individuals will continue to plan and plot without any fatigue, boredom, despair, surrender or indifference until you receive from them a cunning misfortune that will gray the hair of the child even before he gets old.
We call upon our Muslim people in Pakistan where our dear Sheikh Osama was killed on their soil to rise up and revolt so they can cleanse this disgrace that was brought upon them by a handful of traitors and thieves who have sold everything to the enemies of the Muslim nation, and disregarded the feelings of this great Muajhid (Pakistani) people and let them rise up and start a massive public uprising to cleanse their country (Pakistan) from the filth of the Americans who have wreaked havoc in the land”.
Al-Qaeda chimes in to OBL’s body controversy and tells its supporters that OBL had one more message for them.
“The sheikh (OBL) didn’t leave this world before taking part in sharing the joy with his Muslim Umma (nation) regarding its revolutions when the nation has risen in the face of injustice and the tyrants and may God have mercy on him, the sheikh recorded an audio message one week before his killing that we will release soon, God willing and his audio message included a congratulation greeting, advices and a guidance. He ended his audio message with the following verses:
Saying the righteousness to the tyrants is the splendor & the gospel.
This is the path leading to the mundane life, this is the path leading to the hereafter.
You can die a slave if you wish or die a free man, this is your choice.
Moreover, we warn the Americans of any injustice to be made to the corpse of Sheikh Osama, God’s mercy be upon him or that he will be mistreated in any despicable manner and this warning includes the mistreatment of any member of the sheikh’s honorable family whether they are dead or alive and that the bodies must be handed over to the families because any inappropriate treatment will open the doors of double evil and you will only be blaming yourselves for your own deeds. We call upon all Muslims to do their duty in enforcing this right.”

Salaam Alaykom wa rahmatollah wa barakatuh,
In the Name of Allah, the 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.
More than 48 hours have passed and still there is no official statement from Al-Fajr media regarding the Martyrdom of Sheikh Osama bin laden. The supporters of the Mujahideen are waiting for the official statement with their hands on their hearts. Many people are waiting for a denial statement and others are waiting for a confirmation. The people who are waiting for the statement are divided into 2 groups. We have the Believers on one side and the people of infidelity and apostasy on the other side. The first group is hoping for a denial statement and other is waiting for a confirmation.
The world we are living in is also divided into 2 groups. Our beloved Sheikh Osama bin Laden stated that, “the world is divided in a group of believers and a group of disbelievers“. This was not only said by Sheikh Osama bin Laden but also by George W. Bush (May Allah Curse him). He said “You are with us or with the Terrorist“. In other words you are with the soldiers of Allah or with the forces of Iblees. He is a liar but the said the truth.
I do not want to waste my time by analyzing what is said by the main stream media. There are hundreds of reports regarding the “assassination” which only cast more doubts and reduces our enthusiasm in Support of the Mujahideen.
That is why I want to focus on other important issues.
I think that many of us have read the Biography of the Prophet Mohammad (SAS). The most sad part is the death/martyrdom of the Prophet, peace be upon him.
What caught my attention was the reaction of Umar R.A and Abu Bakr R.A.
Umar’s Reaction:
Umar R.A, who was so stunned that he almost lost consciousness and stood before people addressing them: “Some of the hypocrites claim that the Messenger of Allâh died. The Messenger of Allâh did not die, but went to his Lord in the same way as Moses bin ‘Imran did. He stayed away for forty nights, but finally came back though they said he had been dead. By Allâh, the Messenger of Allâh will come back and he will cut off the hands and legs of those who claim his death.“
Abu Bakr’s Reaction:
Abu Bakr R.A, left his house and came forth to the Mosque. At the Mosque, he dismounted and entered. He talked to nobody but went on till he entered ‘Aishah’s abode, and went directly to where the Messenger of Allâh was. The Prophet was covered with a mantle. He uncovered his face and tended down, kissed him and cried. Then he said: “I sacrifice my father and mother for your sake. Allâh, verily, will not cause you to die twice. You have just experienced the death that Allâh had ordained.”
Then he went out and found ‘Umar talking to people. He said: “‘Umar, be seated.” ‘Umar refused to do so. People parted ‘Umar and came towards Abu Bakr, who started a speech saying:
And now, he who worships Muhammad . Muhammad is dead now. But he who worships Allâh, He is Ever Living and He never dies.
Allâh says in the Glorious Quran: Muhammad (SAW) is no more than a Messenger, and indeed (many) Messengers have passed away before him. If he dies or is killed, will you then turn back on your heels (as disbelievers)? And he who turns back on his heels, not the least harm will he do to Allâh, and Allâh will give reward to those who are grateful. [3:144]
My dear brothers and sisters,
– Did the Companions turn back on their heals?
– Did the Companions stop spreading the word of Allah?
– Did the Companions lose hope?
NO! NO! NO!
The Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, marched forward and conquered the holy land. They sacrificed everything to make the word of Allah supreme on earth.
– Did the تابعين turn back on their heals after the death of Abu Bakr?
– Did the تابعين turn back on their heals after the Martyrdom of Umar?
– Did the تابعين turn back on their heals after the Martyrdom of Ali?
– Did the تابعين turn back on their heals after the Martyrdom of Uthman?
NO! NO! NO!
They continued in their Da’wa and Jihad. They eliminated infidelity and replaced it with Faith (by the permission of Allah).
And now it is our turn.
In 2006 we lost a great Mujahid leader in the Land of the Two Rivers. The Rejectionist celebrated his death and were shouting that his death is the end of Al-Qaida in Iraq. After the Martyrdom of Abu Mus’ab Al-Zarqawi we received the great news of the establishment of the Islamic State of Iraq.
Nobody heard of Abu Omar al-Baghdadi heretofore. After his first speech we heard a voice of faith and determination. His actions Spoke Louder Than his Words. His Companion Abu Hamza al-Muhajir always made us cry of joy. Every week we watched the soldiers of the Islamic State of Iraq eliminating the kufaar and murtadeen.
In Somalia we lost a great leader Aden Hashi Farah Ayrow R.A. After his Martyrdom we saw the youths of Somalia capturing village after village, city after city and province after province. Not only that but they are also implementing the Islamic Law with great support of the Somali People.
In every field we see the Mujahideen becoming stronger by the day.
By the Permission of Allah!
So what if Osama bin Laden received Martyrdom?
My dear brothers and sisters, Sheikh Osama bin Laden did not leave the worldly life to earn more money. He left the worldly life to sacrifice his soul and wealth for the sake of Allah. He did this to receive martyrdom for the sake of Allah (SWT).
Death has to arrive once in life
Then why should it not end on martyrdom?
The final of Prophets and Apostles (SAS) has wished for this status. So be aware of and do not forget about this status. He, who is the most supreme of all creation, wished for this level: the desire to be a martyr.
He said, “By Him in Whose Hands Muhammad‘s (SAS) life is! It is more beloved to me to be martyred in fighting Allāh’s Cause and then fight and then get martyred, and then fight and then get martyred”
So, the gain of this spacious life for him – upon whom revelation descended from the Lord, the Most Glorious and Exalted, of Heavens and the Earth – was explained very briefly, that he himself was a desirer of this lofty status. So, fortunate is he whom Allāh blesses with the status of martyrdom.
Message to the (Supporters) Ansar al-Mujahideen
Our job is to bring the jihadist media to the next level. We have succeeded in propagating the words of the fields to the borders of the countries. We are with hundreds or thousands of members. Let us work together and become one moving body. We need to spend our time in seeking knowledge and acting upon it.
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.
ولا تنسونا من صالح الدُعاء
Don’t Forget Us in Your Prayers

Arabic:
لن أتكلم اليوم عن نسب الرجل ، فمثله يبتدئ به نسبه ، وإن كان أبوه باني المساجد الثلاثة ، فلسان حال صاحبنا يقول:
لسنا ، وإن كرمت أنسابُنا يوماً … على الأنساب نتّكلُ نبني كما كانت أوائلنا تَبني … ونفعل مثلما فعلواأما لقبه ، فقيل: شيخ المجاهدين ، وقيل: فاروق الإسلام ، وقيل الإرهابي: فقد أرهب اللهُ به أعدائه حتى فارق النوم أجفانهم:
ورموه بالإرهاب حين أبى الخِنى … ومضى على درب الكرامة وارتقاوقيل الشيخ الهُمام ، وقيل البطل الضرغام ، وقيل ، وقيل ، وقيل !! ولكنني لا أعزف عن اسم سماه به أبواه: إنه “أُسامة” ، وأُسامة ، كما في “الرائد” إسم علم للأسد ، ولكن الطبعة التي عندي قديمة (1967م) ، وربما غّير المؤلف هذا المعنى بعد الأحداث ليصبح الأسد علمٌ لأُسامة ..
صاحبنا مسلمٌ ، فهو أسد في الإسلام ، وبما أنه ليس له اليوم في الإسلام نظير فهو “أسد الإسلام”:
ترك حياة الترف و البذخ وجاهد بماله و نفسه في سبيل الله فأرهب الله به أعدائه ، ورفع اللهُ به راية الإسلام عالية بعد أن كادت رؤوس المسلمين تطأطئ لا عن تواضع:
ولولا صارمي وسِنانُ رُمحي … لما رَفَعَت بنو عبْسٍ عِماداأكتب هذه الكلمات عن “أسد الإسلام” بعد أن خرجت الفئران من جحورها تتنطط وتتبختر وتصرخ وترفع عقيرتها تحاول النيل من هذا الأسد الضرغام قهراً وكمداً وغيظاً من هذا الليث الخطير الذي أقض مضاجع معبوداتهم من الأصنام الغربية {يُعجِبُ الزُّرّاع ليغيظ بهم الكفّار}
ولكن ماذا عساي أن أقول ولسان فعله يقول:
أنا لن أتكلم عن “أسد الإسلام” ، ولن أُبدي رأيي فيه ، فإني أخاف أن تتعثر الكلمات ، وتتلعثم التعابير أمام أفعاله العظام ، ولكنني أذكر كلاماً خطه ليث آخر من ليوث الوغى ، كلمات تحكي قصة مجد انبعث بعد غفوة فشيّد صرحاً للعزّة عجزت الدنيا أن تلمح قمته.
قال مجدد فقه الجهاد في عصره ، الشيخ المجاهد “عبدالله عزام” رحمه الله :
“نرجو الله عز وجل أن يحفظ أخانا أبا عبد الله أسامة بن لادن، فهذا الرجل ما تفتحت عيناي على رجل مثله في الأرض أبدا”
وقال عنه رحمه الله: “هذا رجلٌ بأمة”
وقال: “ولله أشهد أني لم أجد له نظيراً في العالم الإسلامي، فنرجو الله أن يحفظ لهدينه وماله ، وأن يبارك في حياته” [آآمين]
أما كيف حظى “أسد الإسلام” بهذه النظرة الإجلالية من مثل هذا الجبل “عزام” ، فالجواب سهل يسير ، فإنه لما قرأ في كتاب الله {أَرَضِيتُم بِالْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا مِنَ الآخِرَةِ} (التوبة : 38) ، قال “كلّا” بملئ فيه وترك خلفه متاع الحياة الدنيا القليلة ، وانطلق يبتغي الموت في مظانه:
إن لله عباداً فُطنا … طلّقوا الدنيا وعافوا الفتنا نظروا فيها فلمّا علموا … أنها ليست لحيٍّ وطنا جعلوها لُجّة واتخذوا … صالح الأعمال فيها سُفنايقول عزام رحمه الله مبيناً حال “أسد الإسلام”:
“يعيش فيبيته عيش الفقراء ، كنت أنزل في جدّة في بيته عندما أذهب للحج أو للعمرة ليس في بيته كرسي ولا طاولة أبدا ، كل بيت ، متزوج من أربعة وليس في أي بيت من البيوت كرسي ولا طاولة ، أيّ عامل من الأردن أو مصر بيته أحسن من بيت أسامة … ومع ذلك في لحظات تطلب منه مليون ريال يكتب لك شيكا بمليون ريال للمجاهدين”.
ويقول:
“ويرَون [أي الأفغان] العربي قد ترك ثراءه ووظيفته وشركته في السعودية أو في الخليج أو الأردن وجاء يعيش على الخبز الجاف والشاي في ذرى الجبال ، ويرون اسامة بن لادن قد ترك مشروعه في توسيع الحرم المدني لإخوانه وعطاؤه (ثمانية آلاف مليون ريال سعودي ) وألقى بنفسه في أتون المعركة” (انتهى كلامه رحمه الله) .
ليس هذا فحسب ، بل ليثنا خرج من عرين أُسود . يقول شيخ الجهاد عزام رحمه الله :
“ذهب [أسد الإسلام] إلى إحدى أخواته فعرض عليها فتوى ابن تيمية في الجهاد بالمال ، فأخرجت شيكا وكتبت ثمانية ملايين ريال ، يعني أربعين مليون روبية ، جاء الذين “يفهمون” ليقنعوها : أمجنونة أنت !!! ثمانية ملايين دفعة واحدة !! .. والله من المسلمين .. المسلمات يقنعنها ، والمسلمون يقنعون زوجها ، وما زالوا يفتلون لها بين الحبل والغارب … قالوا لها : أنت تسكنين بشقة في الأجرة ، على الأقل مليوناً لبناء بيت لك ، فاقتنعت بمليون تسترده ، جاءت لأسامة قالت له : يا أسامة يا أخي مليوناً أبني به بيتا ، قال لها : والله ولا ريال ، لأنك تعيشين في شقة مستريحة والناس يموتون لا يجدون خيمة” (انتهى كلامه رحمه الله).
لقد أتته الدنيا راغبة فقال لها غُري غيري ، إني قد طلقتك ثلاثاً لا رجعة فيها ، وانظر إلى تواضعه – أعزه الله ونصره – تواضع الأسد الذي فتك الدنيا بأنيابه !! يقول عزام رحمه الله :
“وعندما يجلس معك تظنه خادما من الخدم ،مع الأدب والرجولة ، والله أنا أمسكه هكذا ، وقلت “للشيخ” سياف : اصدر قرارا ممنوع أنيتحرك من هنا ، وهو يريد دائما أن يكون في المواجهة …”
“وعندما يدخل بيتي (أي أُسامة) … صدّقوا عندما يرنّ التلفون يذهب هو ويأتي بالتليفون حتى لا أقوم من مكاني ، أدب ، حياء ، رجولة ، نرجو الله أن يحفظه إن شاء الله”
“أول مرة دعاني كنا في رمضان ، فذهبت ، فجاء عند الأذان بصحن مرقة وفيه بعض العظمات عليها قليل من اللحم وحبتان أو ثلاثة من الكباب …” (انتهى كلامه رحمه الله)
إن الأسد لا يألف إلا أقرانه ، و”أسد الإسلام” ليس وحيداً من الخلان ، فمن حوله ليوث غابٍ توسدوا التراب والتحفوا السماء واستقرّوا في جبالٍ تناطح السحاب اتّقاء لهيب المطر .. أرض المسبعة تأوي تلك الآساد الضارية والوحوش المفترسة يقارعون المنايا بوجوهٍ باسمة ، نفسي فدى تلك العصابة المُنعَّمة ..
وانظر إلى هذه اللحظات الجميلة التي نقلها لنا – بفضل الله – شيخ الجهاد عزام ، لحظات وَدَّ المؤمن لو أنه باع كل ما يملك ليعيش دقائق في أحلام حقيقية شهدتها جبال سليمان :
“فلقد اشتد القتال وحزب الأمر ، وغص المكر بالرجال وتسابق القوم عشّاق الحور إلى الميدان ، فإذا أشرت لهم بالمنع تحدرت العبرات كالجمان ، وكأن أحدهم عاشق ولهان ، أو واجم هيمان ، إن نفسه قد تعلّقت بأخيه الذي سبقه ولسان حاله يردد:
كبيرهم وصغيرهم ، ثقيلهم وخفيفهم ، الكل مقبل على المعركة نحاول أن نردهم عن الموت وكأننا نحاول أن نرد ليوثا عن فريستها ، وعبثاً نحاول ، ولولا الخوف من عصيان الأمر لانكبوا على الردى انكباب الأكلة على قصعتها ، وأسامة بن لادن يشدّها إلى الوراء كأنما يسحب الخيل العطاش بلُجُمها يمنعها من الماء …” (انتهى كلامه رحمه الله)
وبعد:
لا بد للحشرات الحاقدة والحاسدة من التقول على آساد الجهاد ، والطعن في أسياد الرجال كشيخ الجهاد “عزام” وإخوانه الذين حضروا تلك اللحظات التاريخية والمواقف الإيمانية ، ولكننا نلقم هذه الحشرات البائسة حجراً لا يطيبون بعده.

UPDATE 5/9 9:32 AM: Here is an English translation of the below statement:
In the name of Allah the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
“And never think of those who have been killed in the cause of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision, (169) Rejoicing in what Allah has bestowed upon them of His bounty, and they receive good tidings about those [to be martyred] after them who have not yet joined them – that there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve. (170) They receive good tidings of favor from Allah and bounty and [of the fact] that Allah does not allow the reward of believers to be lost – (171) Those [believers] who responded to Allah and the Messenger after injury had struck them. For those who did good among them and feared Allah is a great reward – (172) Those to whom hypocrites said, “Indeed, the people have gathered against you, so fear them.” But it [merely] increased them in faith, and they said, “Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs.” (173)” (Surah Aal Imran 169-173)
When Sultan Muhammad Fatih, conquered Constantinople, he was less than 25 years of age!! And when he passed away almost close to 80 years, the bells of churches rang for three days in Europe in celebration and merriment and craze and belittlement of the one who had disgraced them and was preparing to conquer Rome… a happiness unequal except to their happiness and the Jews and their allies with the passing away of a man who is unique in his time, in manners and simplicity and faith and courage and steadfastness and humanity…
Really! It was not for the people of disbelief and association and vanity to harvest all this happiness and set up parties and dance like dogs on the bodies of lions, except for the fact that Usama caused them that level of vexation and disgrace, what shattered their self respect and broke their might, and influence, and revealed their hidden, and made them a moral for others… until they became, due to sheer happiness and overwhelming with the death of Sheikh Osama, after great vexation, like the cat that relates with pride the deeds of a lion… and what happiness is it if they only knew its effect upon the selves of the sons of the Ummah so that they regret the evil of their doing?
A happiness that was met, except for those who resisted, big and small, general and special, Arabs or non Arabs, male or female, analysts, scholars, Mujahedeen, journalists, supporters, aiders, and even those who differed and condemned… with deep sadness, and great respect and honor, for a knight who fought the tyrants of earth with unrelenting patience and mind, and then dismounted his horse… a knight who gave up to his destiny as Sheikh Tahir Owais
A sadness that has no other meaning except to be a bitter thorn in the throat of Obama and his allies… a thorn that has stripped them of every form of manner and respect except a justice that they have claimed for themselves that is evil and envious, after having denied it to everyone else, justifying every transgression, indiscretion and beastly action in the right of the sons of man… a thorn, that is so overwhelming that it has taken in its indications and vastness and encompassment to strangle every enemy and agent and traitor and immoral or drunkard or doubtful one, in vain, that he has performed a great deed, or that the world without Usama has become safe…
Osama died… no… he did not die… the news is not true… there should be a verifying statement… or… denial… or… decisiveness in the matter… no instead they buried him at sea in the Islamic manner!!… He was shot in the head… was killed in a heavy firefight… a helicopter downed in the attack… but due to mechanical errors… several accounts that can’t be believed by the mind or justified by logic… fabricated pictures… and statements… all of which require investigation
A happening this great has a lot of ambiguity… waiting… doubting… lack of concentration… doubts… belying… believing… waiting… hastening in condolence… like this they swallowed the event… and involved the Ummah in the details rather than dealing with the event itself…. And in this way they scattered the emotions… in order to drain out the initial expressions… taking advantage in that, of the difficulty of immediate reply from Al Qaeda
They worked out, through their aired channels lies and falsehood and fabrications… and they still are… and through those who are riding upon the bones and blood of the sons of man, to spread poison and lies in the minds of the common people… but they harvested nothing except resistance and their language and evil stances were not met by, except with loss… for unique personalities remain great… and great events cannot be hidden, and they cannot be employed at the level of which they remain, in the hearts and minds or both of them
Osama is a thought that brought to life the Aqeedah of the Ummah… and raised the conscience of the people… and united the minds… and prepared to get rid of transgression and tyranny and tyrants and encouraged to aid the weak and oppressed and set up the Sharia of Allah… the thought of an Aqeedah that cannot be assassinated… and is not an organization, a party or an ideology that lives for a portion of time and then wears off like the wearing off of its people… but they thought so and they still think… so glad tidings for the Ummah the time of whose ideological dominance has arrived… and woe for a Ummah the time of whose demise has drawn close
The heroes of the Ummah, from the very beginning of the message, were blooming youth from 25 years to 30 years of age… all that they had was faith… and whatever else they had, they gave it to others… so they left away bodily, like other sons of man, and remained alive as lofty examples, and ideals that time has remained incapable of erasing, like this were several of the companions… and like this was Muhammad Fatih, and like this began the legend of the young Mujahid Usama until he died old in age… and with the likes of these is the Ummah enliven, and its religion renewed, until Allah fulfils a matter that was decreed. So may Allah have mercy on the honorable Sheikh bin Laden, a vast mercy… and may Allah have mercy upon the loyal sons of the Ummah.
