A sincere and devoted Dawah is one that speaks the truth and strives to please the Lord of the Worlds, Allah (swt) by implementing His Shariah under the shade of the Khilafah Rashidah (Rightly-Guided Caliphate) on the Method of the Prophethood. It alone is capable of severing the hand of the West that tampers with the unity of our lands; it alone can preserve our lives and honor and establish security and safety, while seeking the pleasure of the Most Merciful, Allah (swt).

What Hizb ut Tahrir Warned About Nine Years Ago Became a Reality
Recent images captured by the European satellite Sentinel-2 show a significant drop in the Nile's water level over the course of a single month, leading the major water stations to go out of service. A report published in Asharq Al-Awsat Newspaper on 22/7/2026, stated: “The receding of the Nile's water this summer was not merely a seasonal change in river levels, but rather a crisis affecting the lives of hundreds of thousands of Sudanese. Drinking water stations were disrupted, and supplies dwindled in several areas, amid fears that the repercussions could extend to the agricultural season and food security.”
In response, the Official Spokesperson for Hizb ut-Tahrir in Wilayah Sudan, Ustadh Ibrahim Othman (Abu Khalil), stated in a press release, “This was expected, and we in Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah of Sudan warned against it. We explained the danger the Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (An-Nahda Dam) poses to the water security of both Sudan and Egypt, and how the rulers of Egypt and Sudan have relinquished the rights of the Ummah when they agreed to the construction of this disastrous dam by signing the Declaration of Principles Agreement in Khartoum on 23/3/2015.”
Ustadh Abu Khalil added, “To oppose this dam, we held dozens of seminars and forums, in which we hosted sincere water experts who explained the danger of this dam to the water security of Sudan and Egypt. In contrast to what the party did in clarifying the facts about the dam, the position of politicians and most media figures was supportive of the establishment of the dam and aligned with the position of the government, which was complicit in allowing the establishment of the dam. In July 2014, a huge media delegation that included 32 journalists visited the Renaissance Dam, which was arranged by the Sudanese Ministries of Information and Irrigation with the aim of promoting the dam and being false witnesses to the crime that would be committed against the people of Sudan. This visit had an effective impact in conditioning people to accept the establishment of the dam when they listed its benefits falsely and slanderously.”
Abu Khalil continued, “Furthermore, the media in general adopted a negative stance, even when Hizb ut Tahrir presented compelling evidence of the dam’s dangers. In September 2017, we published a booklet titled ‘An-Nahdha (Grand Renaissance) Dam and the Threats of Water, Negligence of the Rulers and the Duty of the Ummah,’ in 40-pages of medium size. In it, we emphasized that the signing of the so-called Declaration of Principles between Ethiopia, Egypt, and Sudan in Khartoum on 23/5/2015, by Sisi, the ruler of Egypt, Omar al-Bashir, the ruler of Sudan, and Desalegn, the Prime Minister of Ethiopia, was forsaking of the Ummah's rights and a disgrace and shame perpetrated by the governments of Sudan and Egypt. We also explained the dangers of the Grand Renaissance Dam to Sudan and Egypt, the anticipated risks, and the resulting damages. The booklet then discussed the Islamic legal principles for dealing with rivers, and concluded by outlining three violations of Islamic law committed by the rulers of Sudan and Egypt in colluding to allow the construction of the Grand Renaissance Dam.”
The concluding remarks stated, “The history of the Khilafah is rich in lessons on its integrity and its preservation of the interests of the Muslims, by the strength of its political work, the elevation of its negotiators and diplomats, their pride and their forbearance, and their waving and actual use of military force. It is sought by millions of men who aspire to die for Allah. It is the state of dignity and power, that every Muslim must work with the workers, to establish it, for a good life in obedience to Allah (swt), that the inhabitants of the heaven and earth are satisfied with.” For such a goal, let the workers strive.

Isn't It Time for Al-Aqsa Mosque to Be Purified?!
The storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque by extremist Jews is no longer a new event, but rather a constant occurrence. The prayers, dancing, singing, and desecration at the mosque by these accursed individuals (by Allah) have become almost daily occurrences. The timing of these incursions, coinciding with the anniversary of what they call the destruction of the Temple, serves as an annual warning that Al-Aqsa Mosque is targeted for demolition, Judaization, and the construction of their alleged temple on its ruins.
Conversely, statements of condemnation, describing the crime as a dangerous escalation, revealing the plan for temporal and spatial division and the violation of the historical and legal status, and holding the criminal fully responsible, are no longer new news that we hear from the Oslo Authority, or the guardian, or the Arab League, or the existing regimes in the Islamic countries. Muslims have become accustomed to their rhetoric and then saw them being ground in the mill of the Jews, whom they appease, support, make peace with, even protect, assist, recognize, and fight the people of Palestine and those who support them and those who think of purifying the Sacred House from the filth of the usurpers.
Accordingly, a press release issued by the Media Office of Hizb ut-Tahrir in the Blessed Land of Palestine stated: “All the aforementioned crimes committed by the criminal Jewish entity against Al-Aqsa Mosque and its surroundings, and the crimes of the regimes surrounding the Sacred Land, are not surprising. This entity is a hateful and spiteful enemy of Islam since the time of the Prophet Muhammad (saw), and these regimes have been hostile to the Deen of Islam and its people from the very first day they ascended to power.
But what is truly astonishing is that Al-Aqsa Mosque is being desecrated and the Ummah of Muhammad (saw) does not rise up in defense of its Deen!!
It is truly strange for the Ummah of Jihad to witness the desecration of the place where the prophets and messengers gathered for the final Messenger, Muhammad (saw), to lead them in prayer, and yet they do not saddle their horses, nor prepare for fighting, nor strike with their swords to restore the place to the purity befitting its status!
It is truly strange for the Ummah of Muhammad (saw), who say prayers upon him morning and evening, night and day, to allow his Masra (site of the night journey) to be desecrated as if it were a mere daily occurrence, without moving and mobilizing its armies!
It is strange for those who sing the praises of the conqueror Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) and the liberator Salahuddin, and are from among the Ummahs soldiers and officers, but do not rally like them, nor mobilize like them, nor charge like them, declaring, ‘Labaik (Here I am), O Masra of the Messenger of Allah (saw)!’”
The press statement concluded by noting: “The Ummah and its soldiers have experienced setbacks, but they have always been followed by rounds of victories, as the Crusaders and the Mongols witnessed before. Isn’t it time for the rounds of victory of the blessed land to start? Isn’t it time for Al-Aqsa Mosque to be cleansed of their defilement, to dry its tears and find solace in the takbirs of the liberators and the tahlils of the conquering worshippers?”

Jeffrey Sachs’s Visit to Uzbekistan: An Indicator of Central Asia’s Importance in the Global Economy
The visit to Uzbekistan in July 2026 by Jeffrey Sachs—a world-renowned economist, Columbia University professor, and head of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network—took place as part of a historic tour along the Silk Road. The visit focused on fostering regional cooperation and supporting sustainable development. Sachs held meetings in Tashkent with representatives from the Institute for Macroeconomic and Regional Studies (IMRS), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and the Senate of Uzbekistan.
Al-Rayah Newspaper: Jeffrey Sachs’s visit to Uzbekistan is not merely a tour by a scholar; it signals the growing importance of Central Asia within the global economic system.
Uzbekistan can effectively capitalize on this process; international cooperation grounded in science, technology, investment, and mutual benefit can open up new avenues for the country's development.
Yet, opportunities bring responsibilities. Not every Western investor seeks the prosperity of the Uzbek people; many aim primarily to increase their own wealth. History shows that nations have fallen under foreign influence not only through military force but also through economic dependency. In this context, it is worth noting that Uzbekistan’s total debt stood at approximately $46.85 billion at the end of 2025.
The difference between the Western economy and the standard of the justice of Islam is as vast as the distance between the earth and the sky. Throughout its history, capitalism has never developed any state foreign to the major powers; instead, it has rendered them economically and politically dependent.
In the Islamic economic perspective, however, the issue is not merely about increasing wealth; it is fundamentally linked to how that wealth is earned and distributed within society. Wealth in Islam is not an absolute possession for a person to dispose of at will; rather, it is a trust that Allah (swt) has appointed humans as vicegerents. As Allah (swt) says,
[آمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَأَنفِقُوا مِمَّا جَعَلَكُم مُّسْتَخْلَفِينَ فِيهِ فَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنكُمْ وَأَنفَقُوا لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ كَبِيرٌ]
“Believe in Allah and His Messenger and spend out of that in which He has made you trustees. For those who have believed among you and spent, there will be a great reward” [TMQ Surah Al-Hadid: 7].
Based on this principle, economic progress is not measured solely by the affluence of a specific group, but by the achievement of justice and prosperity for society as a whole. Furthermore, the lawfulness of capital, the avoidance of harm to others, and the service of the public interest are considered fundamental tenets in Islam.

US Delegation Walks Out of UN Security Council Meeting!
The US delegation walked out of a UN Security Council meeting on July 27—just as French Ambassador Jérôme Bonnafont began his address—in protest against France's criticism of the US human rights record under the Trump administration. This walkout followed a General Assembly vote to extend the mandate of Volker Türk as High Commissioner for Human Rights; the measure garnered support from 144 nations, while the US was among ten countries that opposed it. The French mission to the UN in Geneva stated, “The US used to be a beacon of human rights. Not anymore,” noting that the US had voted alongside Russia and North Korea. US Alternate Representative Dan Negrea described France’s remarks as a “disingenuous grandstanding,” accusing France of “cozying up to the world’s worst oppressors.”
Al-Rayah Newspaper: This walk-out clearly demonstrates the decline of America’s moral influence on the international stage. A state that once sought to present itself as a model for human rights now prefers a theatrical withdrawal over engaging with objective criticism.
France’s comparison of the US to North Korea and Russia regarding human rights votes reflects a tangible reality: the world has come to view America’s commitment to international law and human rights as extending no further than its own interests.
