All praise is due to Allah. We praise Him and seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Weseek refuge in Allah from the evil in our own soul and from our sinful deeds. Whomsoever

Allah guides, none can mislead. And whomsoever Allah misguides, none can guide. I bearwitness that there is no one worthy of worship except Allah. He is One, having no partner. And

I bear witness that Muhammad ibn Abdullah (SAWS) is His servant and Messenger.

O ye who believe! Fear Allah as He should be feared, and die not except in a state of Islam.

To what Proceeds:

Allah (SWT) mentions in His Book, in Surah Hijr:

1. 2.

3. 4.

5. 6.

7. .8

9.

Alif Lam Ra. These are the verses of the Book and (of) a Quran that makes (things) clearOften will those who disbelieve wish that they had been Muslims.

Leave them that they may eat and enjoy themselves and (that) hope may beguile them, for theywill soon know.

And never did We destroy a town but it had a term made known.

No nation can outstrip its term5. No people can hasten on their doom nor can they postpone (it).And they say: O you to whom the Reminder has been revealed! you are most surely insane:Why do you not bring to us the angels if you are of the truthful ones?

We do not send the angels but with truth, and then they would not be respited.Surely We have revealed the Reminder and We will most surely be its guardian.

These noble ayah are but a few of the statements Allah (SWT) has made regarding the end of

nations that transgress beyond bounds. Indeed every ayah of the Quran contains a sign for manthat points to a principle or sunnah (law) set forth for humanity to adhere to. So, from amongstthem Allah (SWT) sets forth in the Quran that,

O ye who believe! if any from among you turn back from his Faith, soon will Allah produce apeople whom He will love as they will love Him,- kind with the believers, firm against the

disbelievers, fighting in the way of Allah, and never afraid of the blame of the blamers. (5:54)

And He (SWT) has also said,

And did not Allah check one set of people by means of another, the earth would indeedbe full of mischief: But Allah is full of bounty to all the worlds (2:251)

Here we find the laws for human relations in that Allah (SWT) will always preserve His truthwith a people on the right path and that Allah (SWT) will replace those that abuse power withanother even if that power be weak and less in magnitude. And from the aforementioned ayah of

Surah Hijr Allah (SWT) has stated,

Never did We destroy a population that had not a term decreed and assigned beforehand.

It is these laws that will be true for all time and until the Day of Judgment but it is these sunnah(laws) that so many of the people are unable to see today and recognize and adhere to and indeedit is in abandoning the implementation and understanding of these laws that has led the ummah

of Muhammad (SAWS) into a state of utter despair incomparable to what has been known fromthe history of the deen and comparable to the famous hadith where Allah's Messenger (SAWS)warned us by saying: "Beware a time is coming when all nations of the world will gathertogether to wipe you out the way they gather around a table to partake of its meal." Hiscompanions said "Will we be so few in number that day Oh, Messenger of Allah?" He (SAWS)said "No, on that day you will be many in number but you will be guthar (like the froth on thesurface of the water after a flood) and Allah will take from the hearts of the Kafirs respect for


4/17

you and fear of you and Allah will cast into your hearts wahan." The companion said "What iswahan?" He (SAWS) said "Love for this world and hatred of death."What does hatred of death represent here? Look around and see the means by which people deferthe responsibility to strive with life and wealth in the way of Allah (SWT). The only possibleinterpretation of this wahan, this hatred of death is that the people will leave the jihad, the

struggle in all its manifestations whether it be in the propagation of the deen, speaking the truthto the tyrant ruler, or waging war in order to establish the religion through the land. And all whoattempt to relieve themselves of the characteristics of this hadith are criticized and opposed bytwo distinct camps in the ummah. The moderates take as their intimate companions the lifestyleof the disbelievers, adopting the view that western culture is best, that the house and the two cargarage along with the countless commodification of consumer goods is in some way righteousand they belittle those who work for Islam by claiming that it is best not to judge in this day andage, that Christians who claim Jesus is Allah and that Jews who deny the Messengers and altertheir books can get into the jennah and that Islam is a religion solely of peace. Their pacifismstems largely from their middle class lifestyle and the fact that they are not yet troubled in theWest by the pangs of hunger or the fear of living under occupation, They remain passive only

while they are secure but in the face of possible oppression tend to sell what Allah hascommanded in a heartbeat for the life of the world.The other sinister group that gathers against individuals fulfilling this sunnah of hatred of dunyaand passion for death are those that have utilized the religion as a weapon and have set forth holymen to disguise the deen and justify their neglecting the peak of the matter, sitting back andexcusing the responsibilities of the scholar and hindering those from the path of Allah bydeveloping ideologies that resemble the privilege system of the Catholic Church or BritishEmpire more than the tradition of truth regardless of the consequence set forth by the Quran andSunnah. These individuals sit in self-righteousness and have created a cult that is heavily fundedand favored by the power structure in charge of the Holy Lands. The rule of the Najdiya inSaudi Arabia so cursed by the Prophet (SAWS) his self that he informed us that there would bea fitnah from Najd that would fight alongside of the dajjal in the end of times and there is verylittle doubt that they would fight alongside any democratic kaffir country in war right now toprotect the vast wealth they use to fill their bellies and buy loyalty while the rest of the Muslimssuffer in despair. And their supporters go by buying the rhetoric of the regime while they enterinto haram allegiances like the UN, WTO and etc. and work toward establishing stock markets,insurance companies and haram banks across the Arabian Peninsula. With the dajjal touchingevery city except Mecca and Medina, apparently Riyadh has already signed its pact with thefalse-messiah and his global system. Around 4.8 million Saudis and 461,000 expatriates tookbank loans or financed purchases in 2007 An employee can now get a loan just on the strengthof his monthly salary serving as the only collateral, said Nabeel Al-Mubarak, a financial analyst(http://www.arabnews.com/?page=1&section=0&article=107903&d=16&m=3&y=2008&pix=kingdom.jpg&category=Kingdom)... The order to cleanse the Arabian Peninsula of the Jews andChristians is disregarded. These cultists applauded the removal of kafir armies from the Saudistate when Donald Rumsfeld announced in 2003 that with the removal of Sadaam Hussein allcombat forces would be withdrawn. However, in reality their I told you sos areovershadowed by the fact the removal of troops from Saudi Arabia fails to acknowledge the USmilitary bases in Bahrain, Kuwait and Qatar and the permanent bases soon to be established inIraq. On March 18, 2008 while interviewed on his trip to the Middle East, Vice President DickCheney said that public opinion is of little concern. The interviewer, shocked, replied, two-


5/17

thirds of Americans say it is not worth fighting? He replied, So.. You dont care what theAmerican people think? she returned. No, I think you cannot be blown off course by thefluctuations in public opinion polls. On the 5 th anniversary of the Iraq War, Cheney could befound fishing in Oman on the Sultans 60 foot yacht. Indeed in these facts, there are signs forthose that believe

And so we have extreme conservatives and democrats even in our Islamic reality and then wehave those upon the truth whom have become the most despised and ridiculed minority forattempting to return to the real root of the religion. With major obstacles in the path of fulfillingthe role of the true believer and criticism and hate around every corner against them, somechosen souls strive hard with whatever they can muster against a world of darkness, despair anddisbelief And we ask Allah (SWT) to make us of them and to accept our deeds and forgive usour sins. Amin!

In Surah Hijr, Allah begins by stating:

Alif Lam Ra. These are the ayah (signs, verses) of the Book and Quran that makes things clear.

And verily in this is a prolific statement from Allah (ta Ala), that it is this Book which serves asa set of signs or ayah from Allah for mankind to acknowledge and represent. It is not aconfusing book, but one that sets forth a system all of mankind can find easy to follow and thattherefore doesnt take a man of high honor or intellectual capacity to recognize is the truth and isitself a guidepost for mankind. He (SWT) says that

Again and again will those who disbelieve, wish that they were Muslims

Thus, a paradox is created. Why if the Quran is so clear would they not simply become Muslims?Why would Allah say they will disbelieve and WISH that they were Muslim? It is narrated inIbn Kathir that, Sufyan Ath-Thawri reported from Salamah bin Kuhayl, who reported from AbiAz-Za`ra', from `Abdullah, who said: "This is about the Jahannamiyyun (the sinners among the believers who will stay in Hell for some time), when they [the disbelievers] see them beingbrought out of Hell.'' How much would those who disbelieved wish that they had been Muslims.)Ibn Jarir reported that Ibn `Abbas and Anas bin Malik explained that this Ayah refers to the Daywhen Allah will detain the sinful Muslims in Hell along with the idolaters. He said: "Theidolaters will say to them, `What you used to worship on earth has not helped you.' Then byvirtue of His mercy, Allah will be angry for their sake, and He will remove them [from it]. Andso in this life the disbelievers hear the Quran, and see the proof in the history of Islamic rule, inthe victory of the life of the Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) and still they deny the divine evidence.They struggle to fabricate theories that seem to disprove the fact of Creation and despite theirutter failures hold on to their disbelief knowing that LA ILAHA IL ALLAH is the onlyalternative. Still, they will not believe and this is yet another sunnah Allah (SWT) has set forth


6/17

in his creation, the contradiction of clear evidence and inherent knowledge of Allah (SWT) at thecore of the human being as Rasulullah (SAWS) said, everyone is created on fitrah and it is hisparents that make him a Jew, Christian or fire worshipper. Still, the majority rejects and gatherstogether against those that disbelieve and Allah (SWT) has said,

They desire that you should compromise with them, so they (too) would compromise with you.

And,

And their purpose was to tempt thee away from that which We had revealed unto thee, tosubstitute in our name something quite different; (in that case), behold! They would certainly

have made thee (their) friend!

And

The Unbelievers are protectors, one of another: Unless ye do this, (protect each other), therewould be tumult and oppression on earth, and great mischief.

And so, those that deny, that will or already do wish that they could have that trust and faith put

forth by mu'min gather together against it. And what is more evidence for this than the presentsituation that sees humanity gather together in packs of nations, cultures and religions against theClear Proof: the Holy Quran and Allah (Aza wa Jal) has also said,

The want to extinguish Allahs light with their mouths, but Allah will not allow but that His lightshould be perfected, even though the Unbelievers may detest (it).

And so Allah continues in Surah Hijr: Ayat 3, 4 & 5 with

Leave them alone, to eat and enjoy, and let them be preoccupied with (false) hope: They will

come to know.


7/17

Never did We destroy a population that had not a term decreed and assigned beforehand.

Neither can a people anticipate its term, nor delay it

Let us compare this statement of Allah (SWT) to the contemporary situation in America. Allah(Aza wa Jal) says to let them alone to eat and enjoy

Americans constitute 5% of the world's population but consume 24% of the world's energy. In2005, 1.21 million abortions were performed; down from 1.31 million abortions in 2000 morethan 22 million Americans age 12 and older are addicted to drugs and alcohol. An estimated 26.2 percent of Americans 18 and older suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder in a given yearAdultery occurs in 50 to 80 percent of all marriages. Each year an estimated 1.5 millionAmericans choose to have nose jobs, tummy tucks or breast enlargements. It is estimated that

approximately ten percent of the U.S. population or 25 million people are homosexuals. Morethan nine out of 10 Americans, men and women alike, have had premarital sex; the high ratesextend even to women born in the 1940s, challenging perceptions that people were more chastein the past.Today every other child in the U.S. is born out of wedlock.Thirty-eight percent of children now live without a biological father;6.6 million children live with divorced single parents, mostly mothers whose ex-husbands tend tofade away from their children. 2.3 million adults are in its penal system; slightly more than 1 percent of its adult population, the United States outpaces every nation in the world when itcomes to locking people up including far more populous China and far more oppressive Iran.And they accuse Muslims of oppressing women without considering that 1 out of every 5 college

age women report being forced to have sexual intercourse. And 22% of all women say that theyhave been forced to do sexual things against their will. The U.S. has the highest rape rate amongcountries which report such statistics. It is 4 times higher than that of Germany, 13 times higherthan that of England and 20 times higher than that of Japan. Every year in America a woman israped every two minutes. Nearly half of all pregnancies to American women are unintended;four in 10 of these end in abortion about half of American women have experienced anunintended pregnancy, and at current rates more than one-third (35%) will have had an abortionby age 45. The porn industry reaps $10 billion a year; women make 76% of a mans wage andare treated as meat rather than human. So if thats freedom, then who would actually want it?Only people addicted to their carnal desires and Allah (SWT) tells us that they will continue onthis path despite the ayah he has presented them. Indeed in this are signs for those that fear their

Lord!BUT THE PARTY MAY SOON BE OVER!

The parable of those who take protectors other than Allah is that of the spider, who builds (toitself) a house; but truly the flimsiest of houses is the spiders house; - if they but knew.(29:41)

As people deplete their savings it is only inevitable that someday some will go to the bank towithdrawal cash only to find they have none to give and then the term recession is converted todepression and the chaos begins. But dont go to your economics professor for an explanationturn toward the Quran, Allah (SWT) has given it to you in plain detail, though most of manchooses not to see.

*** And the graph above shows clearly that a run on the banks is quite possible

To tie this together perfectly we need only one more ayah from Allah where in Surah Al-Ghafirhe declares:

Do they not travel through the earth and see what was the End of those before them? They wereeven superior to them in strength, and in the traces (they have left) in the land: but Allah did call

them to account for their sins, and none had they to defend them against Allah. (40:21)

The Closest comparative source to the American Empire would certainly have to be Rome.Rome fell because of a number of variables:

A decrease in morality:

Crimes of violence made the streets of the larger cities unsafe. Even during Pax Romana therewere 32,000 prostitutes in Rome. Emperors like Nero and Caligula became infamous for wastingmoney on lavish parties where guests ate and drank until they became ill. The most popularamusement was watching the gladiatorial combats in the Coliseum. These were attended by the

poor, the rich, and frequently the emperor himself. As gladiators fought, vicious cries and curseswere heard from the audience. One contest after another was staged in the course of a single day.Should the ground become too soaked with blood, it was covered over with a fresh layer of sandand the performance went on. Sounds like an NFL game.

There were many public health and environmental problems. Many of the wealthy had waterbrought to their homes through lead pipes. Previously the aqueducts had even purified the waterbut at the end lead pipes were thought to be preferable. The wealthy death rate was very high.


10/17

The continuous interaction of people at the Coliseum, the blood and death probably spreaddisease. Those who lived on the streets in continuous contact allowed for an uninterrupted strainof disease much like the homeless in the poorer run shelters of today. Alcohol use increased aswell adding to the incompetency of the general public. And this resembles much of the healthcare policy of contemporary America

Political Corruption was rampant:

The choice for political succession was always open to debate between the old emperor, theSenate, the Praetorian Guard (the emperors private army), and the army. Gradually, thePraetorian Guard gained complete authority to choose the new emperor, who rewarded the guardthen became more influential, perpetuating the cycle. Then in 186 A. D. the army strangled thenew emperor, the practice began of selling the throne to the highest bidder. During the next 100years, Rome had 37 different emperors - 25 of whom were removed from office by assassination.This contributed to the overall weaknesses of the empire and we see in the military industrial-media complex of contemporary America much of the same phenomena

Unemployment was high:

During the latter years of the empire farming was done on large estates called latifundia thatwere owned by wealthy men who used slave labor. A farmer who had to pay workmen could notproduce goods as cheaply. Many farmers could not compete with these low prices and lost orsold their farms. This not only undermined the citizen farmer who passed his values to his family,but also filled the cities with unemployed people. At one time, the emperor was importing grainto feed more than 100,000 people in Rome alone. These people were not only a burden but alsohad little to do but cause trouble and contribute to an ever increasing crime rate. And the there isno better comparison to this today than the tools of the American Empire the World Bank and

International Monetary fund whom have inflicted much the same catastrophe across thedeveloping world.

Inflation was rampant

The roman economy suffered from inflation beginning after the reign of Marcus Aurelius. Oncethe Romans stopped conquering new lands, the flow of gold into the Roman economy decreased.Yet much gold was being spent by the Romans to pay for luxury items. This meant that therewas less gold to use in coins. As the amount of gold used in coins decreased, the coins becameless valuable. To make up for this loss in value, merchants raised the prices on the goods theysold. Many people stopped using coins and began to barter to get what they needed. Eventually,salaries had to be paid in food and clothing, and taxes were collected in fruits and vegetables andwe have discussed the devaluation of the dollar and the consequence of inflation already.

Military Spending also contributed:

Maintaining an army to defend the border of the Empire from barbarian attacks was a constantdrain on the government. Military spending left few resources for other vital activities, such asproviding public housing and maintaining quality roads and aqueducts. Frustrated Romans lost


11/17

their desire to defend the Empire. The empire had to begin hiring soldiers recruited from theunemployed city mobs or worse from foreign counties. Such an army was not only unreliable,but very expensive. The emperors were forced to raise taxes frequently which in turn led again toincreased inflation. And the government deficit, cost of imperialist overreach and a defensebudget greater than the rest of the world combined should sit as evidence enough that the same

situation is present in the United States today.

And verily, We have sent among every Ummah (community, nation) a Messenger (proclaiming):"Worship Allah (Alone), and avoid (or keep away from) Taghut." Then of them were somewhom Allah guided and of them were some upon whom the straying was justified. So travelthrough the land and see what was the end of those who denied (the truth). (Qur'n 16:36)

Allah (SWT) says next,

They say: "O thou to whom the Message is being revealed! truly thou art mad (or possessed)!

And so for those calling the people toward this reality, there is sure to be insults and slander.Surely, Rasulullah was called a sorcerer, a poet, crazy, violent and a fraud and surely any whowish to walk the path of truth will face the same accusations. The government agencies profileradical fundamentalists and non Muslims have always been quick to demonize the dawaa. The

unfortunate phenomenon of the present situation is the large percentage of Islamic voices heardaround the globe criticizing radicals calling for change and working to promote moderate imamswho compromise at the drop of a dime and who brand all Muslims calling for shariah as insane.Yet, these slanders should matter little to callers seeking to rid themselves of wahan.

Muslims constitute .6% of the U.S adult population this projects to approximately 1.4 millionMuslims over 18 and 850,000 living in the country. 65% are middle class earning more than$35,000 per year. Pew Research Center conducted the nations largest poll of Muslims in May2007 and found that 43% feel that Muslims coming to the U.S. should adopt U.S. customs, only47% think of themselves as Muslims first not American, Only 35% of Muslim-Americans overthirty attend the mosque weekly or more and 34% never attend, only 41% offer all 5 salah and

only 58% of them find reading the Quran a very important practice. A mere 23% were found tohave a high religious commitment. In fact, moir Christians at 70% report praying at least oncea day than Muslims at 61% and more Christians attend church once a week than percentage ofMuslims that do the mosque. 49% reported that politics should be kept out of the mosque and63% of them are registered to vote.

It is no wonder that callers to Islam as the solution for humanity are singled out by this groupclaiming to be Muslim or why others serious about Islam would never go so far as to call for


12/17

radical change in the society. And so if it these people that represent the majority are all tooquick to denounce serious adherents as extremists, then the carriers of the dawaa should berelieved to know that the opposition Muslim movement is just as blind to these ayah of Allah(SWT) as the non-Muslims and therefore should not be disheartened but should exploit theircriticisms and go outside of their experiences causing confusion amongst all enemies and

keeping the pressure by utilizing different tactics and actions and exploiting all events of thecoming period for the purposes of spreading the haqq. As Said Qutb explained clearly inMilestones, First, the method of this religion is very practical. This movement treats people asthey actually are and uses resources which are in accordance with practical conditions. Sincethis movement comes into conflict with the Jahilliyah which prevails over ideas and beliefs, andwhich has a practical system of life and a political and material authority behind it, the Islamicmovement had to produce parallel resources to confront this Jahiliyyah. This movement uses themethods of preaching and persuasion for reforming ideas and beliefs and it uses physical powerand Jihad for abolishing the organizations and authorities of the Jahili system which preventspeople from reforming their erroneous ways and make them serve human lords instead of Allah(SWT). This movement does not confine itself to mere preaching to confront physical power, as

it also does not use compulsion for changing the ideas of people. These two principles areequally important in the method of this religion. Its purpose is to free those people who wish tobe freed from enslavement to men so that they may serve Allah (SWT) alone. And to rid themfrom the deception of hypocrites and disbelievers.

Allah (Aza we Jal) has said:

There is the type of man whose speech about this worlds life May dazzle thee, and he calls

Allah to witness about what is in his heart; yet is he the most contentious of enemies.

When he turns his back, His aim everywhere is to spread mischief through the earth and destroy

crops and cattle. But Allah loveth not mischief.

When it is said to him, "Fear Allah", He is led by arrogance to (more) crime.Enough for him is Hell;-An evil bed indeed (To lie on)! 2(204-206)

This verse was revealed in regard to a man who came to Rasululah (SAWS) n Medina anddeclared Islam. He was full of good words and nice things to say, but on his way out of Medinahe burned some plants and kicked some trees and killed some of their animals and so Allah(SWT) warns the Muslim of the one amongst the ummah gifted in speech who when the back isturned is responsible for the disregard of the resource and well-being of fellow Muslims. Andany one of us who knows the reality of the many scholars and practioners of Islam that pledge


13/17

Islam with the tongue but have sold their religion for the luxury of the world, the scholars fordollars and protectors of the regimes, gifted moderates and conservatives alike who speak wordsthat sound pure, sincere and good but that have at the tail end of their consequence the loss ofwell-being for the Muslim nation. They mention some of the book and omit its other necessarycomponents and they have construed the reality of the religion making the blood of Muslims

working for shariah halal by branding them khawarij with evidence they know has no leg tostand on and we simply send them a firm warning before moving on to fulfill our divineobligations that the Messenger of Allah (SAWS) has said, the most I fear for my nation is a wellspoken hypocrite (Ahmed:22) and I fear for my nation the imams who misguide (Abu Dawood:39). And we remind them of the scholar who Allah says wore the revelation and was sent byMusa (AS) to spread Allahs deen only to compromise for the pleasures of the life of this worldand to have Allah (SWT) inevitably say about him that he is like a dog,

If it had been Our will, We should have elevated him with Our signs; but he inclined to the earth,

and followed his own vain desires. His similitude is that of a dog: if you attack him, he lolls outhis tongue, or if you leave him alone, he (still) lolls out his tongue. That is the similitude of thosewho reject Our signs; So relate the story; perchance they may reflect. (7:176)

And these Muslims are no different than the non-Muslims and Moderates that call Muslimfundamentalists as crazed, violent and deranged. They are one in the same and Allah (SWT) has

said to,

strive hard against the unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode is

Hell,- an evil refuge indeed.

Surah Hijr goes on to declare in the seventh and eighth ayah

Why bringest thou not angels to us if it be that thou hast the Truth?

We send not the angels down except for just cause: if they came (to the ungodly), behold! no

respite would they have!

Allah tells us here that they would not believe in the message anyway even with the evidenceestablished in front of their very eyes and so the objective and challenge is to carry the truth in areality where very few will adhere to it, to carry it and die upon it and to work against theoppression and obstacles by not waiting for divine intervention but by putting forth the truth ofAllah and working with actions by trying to remove the binders from their eyes and their externalrealities. Any movement should seek to make the enemy live up to his own book of rules by


14/17

critiquing the structure that hinders men form worshipping Allah and therefore endangers thewhole of society in its persistent follie. We do this by showing the reality of the situation

Social control mechanisms in the Western democratic societies allegedly differ from theauthoritarian regimes of the Middle East, but the end result is essentially the same. The

overwhelming amount of wealth and power ends up in the hands of a dominant elite, typicallyless than 2% of the population, while the masses below are given just enough as to preventrebellion. In order to prevent rebellion a framework is constructed based on what have becomenational historiographies. So, in the U.S. people believe in the social and economic stratificationof the people through hard work and determination made possible by the free and democraticstructure of the society; while in Saudi Arabia the religion is manipulated to present a mandated passivity, a justification for government repression inside a tale that presents the elite as the protectors of the holy land. On the outside these systems seem very distinct, but when onecritically analyzes the structures, how only the one who learns how to play the social game andsay the right things how only the one who learns how to play the social game correctly and saythe right things while toeing the line of conformity can possibly advance through filters,

carefully plotted structures that create means by which change agents can only exist on the fringeof the realm of reality, it is plainly recognized that neither system is free or just and that theoverwhelming majority, dispirited and suffering, spend their lives constantly affected by therepercussions of these repressive systems while a social elite exists as kings and queens.

In the United States the consequence is an incredibly high rate of murder, violence, addiction,mental illness, incarceration and other social ills and afflictions (as described above). In SaudiArabia, there is a high level of confusion, a caste system that creates localized tyrants at everylevel, angry suppressed men, religious police with batons, a royal family, and an educate class.They are validated, by their abuses against an array of immigrant workers, women, minoritygroups, and an underprivileged majority they can kick around at their very will. Everyonereproducing the power and elitism of the king as the authoritarian personality becomes the norm.Both systems are authoritarian and anybody that doesnt recognize it is either in the elite groupthe filters create or vying for a position. Its all too clear but he immense propaganda andinformation control the system permits allows the lie that King Abdullah is the Protector of theTwo Holy Cites and that America is the bastion of freedom and democracy across the globe.Both absolutely absurd lies, yet protected not be tangible entities so as much as by abstract socialnorms.

And so, the truly concerned individual must recognize that freedom and liberty is in absentiaacross the globe and increasingly so predominantly because mankind is either negligent,neglectful or in opposition to the Ayat (signs) of Allah and the evidence for this is clear. Thesesystems need challenged at the root yet they are so powerful it is a near guarantee that the veryindividuals you try to protect and emancipate from the power structure will take care of youbefore the people in power have to lift a finger. But this in no, way, shape, or form is a reasonnot to try. And that in a nutshell is the one word the whole world has gathered together against.

JIHAD

Finally Allah (Aza wa Jal) ends this segment by claiming,


15/17

We have, without doubt, sent down the Message; and We will assuredly guard it (from

corruption

The ninth ayah of this chosen section claims and we will guard it not only by preserving theQuran as it was revealed but by making individuals come to the defense of the religion in periodswhere there is a danger that it may be changed and altered as the Jews and Christians did to theirbooks. And this can only be achieved by work in public to propagate and carry out the rulingsand ayats of Allah.

We offer the critics against the public presentation of true Islam a divine reply:

Those who were left behind rejoiced in their inaction behind the back of the Apostle of Allah:

they hated to strive and fight, with their goods and their persons, in the cause of Allah: they said,"Go not forth in the heat." Say, "The fire of Hell is fiercer in heat." If only they could understand!

(9:81)

And we look toward the revivers, in times like these, like Ibn Qayyim (RA) who stated, Whatgood is there in a person who sees the sacred things of Allah being violated, His (SWT) limitstransgressed, His (SWT) religion forsaken, the Sunnah of His Messenger neglected, and yet heremains indifferent, with a cold heart and silenced tongue, like a silent devil. Such people,

besides being despised by Allah, have been afflicted with by the worst disease, namely the deathof the hearts. For the more the heart is alive and vibrant, the more its anger for the sake of Allahand His Messenger is felt, and the stronger and more complete its support for the deen.

And so this message is the sign the deniers are looking for and requesting, though because thereare blinders on the eyes and hearts and because they are expecting proof that goes beyond allreason they miss out on the evidence despite being surrounded by it. They want proof to fallfrom the sky and angels to descend from the heavens and so the carriers must become this proof,the divine evidence amongst them brought to free those deniers whom Allah is about to destroyand this was an alteration in Allahs sunnah to send the Messenger (SAWS) to the Quraish and togrant men knowledge of the Quran so that intervention came from the efforts of men toimplement and adhere to its divine commands. And spreading this is the purpose of life Asthe Messenger (SAWS) was instructed,

Therefore expound openly what thou art commanded, and turn away from those who join falsegods with Allah." (15:94)

Prior to the revelation of this magnificent verse, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) had called thetribes and his kindred collectively to the peace, justice and truth of Islam, but as Allah (MostHigh) sent down the command for him to proclaim publicly his message and as Muhammad(SAWS) and his few followers at that time took to the streets insulting the false gods of theQuraish and commanding justice and forbidding the evil idolatrous practices in the society, it

was inevitable that the evil-doers would revolt and plot and plan viciously against them. Theystarted with slander and taunting and called Muhammad (SAWS) insane and bewitched as wehave seen. They ridiculed and mocked the converts who were not of nobility. They distorted andlied about the actual teachings of Islam. Their intellectuals challenged the validity of the Quran.And eventually, after realizing that none of these tactics prevented the growth of the religion,they resorted to torture and punishment. The tactics of the oppressors and disbelievers continuetoday, and the present situation is nothing other than an increase in persecution and oppressionand an alteration of tactic. Still, inshAllah, they will not be victorious.

We can only hope to imitate the methodology of the Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) companionsat this stage and seek to take from their example in response to these times of traditional attack.

During the Pledge of Aqaba the members of the Ansar, those helpers of the Muslims and thosepromised to be loved by Allah, pledged to protect and promote Islam. Ahmad reported in hisSaheeh that Jabir (RAA) narrated in regard to the pledge that: We said, O Messenger of Allah!To what shall we pledge? The Prophet (SAWA) answered:

1) To listen and obey in all difficulty and ease.2) To spend in plenty as well as in scarcity.3) To enjoin good and forbid evil.4) In Allah's service, you will fear the censure of none.5) To aid me when I come to you, and protect me from anything you protect yourself, yourspouses and children from.Then Paradise is in store for you!

And this is how the Quran is protected and justice is established in the land. All these aspectsremind us of the certain fact that the Prophet (SAWS) stated, "A section of my Ummah willcontinue to fight for the right and overcome their opponents till the last of them fights with theAntichrist. They will not be harmed by those who oppose or forsake them, until Allah'scommand comes." And he (SAWS) is reported to have said:

Some people will come on the Day of Judgment and their imaan will be outstanding, its light willshine from their chests and from their right hands. So, it will be said to them, Glad tidings foryou today, assalamulaikum and goodness for you, enter into it (Jennah) forever! So the angelsand the Prophets (AS) will be jealous of the love of Allah (SWT) for them so the sahaba asked,Who are they, Yaa! Rasulullah? He (SAWS) replied, They are not form us and they are notfrom you. You are my companions but they are my beloved. They will come after you and willfind the Book (Quran) made redundant by the people, and a sunnah which has been killed bythem. So they will grab a hold of the book and the sunnah and revive them. So, they read themand teach them (the Quran and sunnah) to the people and they will experience in that path apunishment more severe and more ugly than what you (O sahaba) have experienced. Indeed theiman of one of them is equivalent to the iman of 40 of you. The shaheed of one of them is

equivalent to 40 of your shuhadaa. That because you found a helper toward the truth (theProphets) and they will find no helper toward the truth. So, they will be surrounded by tyrants,rulers in every place, and they will be in the surroundings of Bayt al Maqdis. The nussrah ofAllah will come to them and they will have the honor of it on their hands. Then he (SAWS) said,Oh Allah (SWT) give them the nussrah and make them my close friends in Jennah. (Ahmad)

.And we pray that we are of these individuals and ask that Allah forgives us and overlooks ourfaults. If what has been presented herein is correct and good, then it is from Allah alone. Andwhatever mistakes exist herein, then verily they are from myself and the Shaytan, the rejected,the accursed. Al hamdulih ar-Rabbil- Alameen.
