The Rulers of Pakistan, Trump’s Men, Abduct the Shebaab of Hizb ut Tahrir to Secure the Surrender of Palestine

Trump’s “favorite field marshal,” Asim Munir, has responded with tyranny to the powerful campaign of Hizb ut Tahrir in Wilayah Pakistan, in which it demands the immediate mobilization of Pakistan’s Armed Forces to liberate Palestine. The thugs of Asim Munir have abducted five advocates, from Lahore, Karachi and Peshawar, and their whereabouts remain unknown. The tyranny of Asim Munir is expected. Asim Munir is unable to act, let alone think, outside of Trump’s directives in any issue, whether regarding Gaza, Kashmir, Afghanistan or the huge mineral resources of Pakistan. The current Trump directive for Gaza is “peace through strength,” which means forceful suppression of any resistance to the surrender of most of the Blessed of Palestine to the Jewish entity, under Trump’s plan, the Abrahamic Accords. So, Asim Munir mobilized against Hizb ut Tahrir, just as the other agents of colonialism in the Muslim World did, including Jordan and Lebanon most recently.

O Muslims of Pakistan, the Pure Land! We, the Shebaab (members) of Hizb ut Tahrir, assure you that we will not abandon the Dawah to Islam, by the Permission of Allah (swt). For quarter of a century in Pakistan, we have faced many tyrants, from Musharraf to Asim Munir, enduring multiple campaigns of harassment, arrests, torture and abduction. We persist patiently because we adhere to the methodology of the Prophet (saw) for change. We strive to emulate the patience of RasulAllah (saw) who was pelted by Abu Lahab with stones, causing his ankles and hamstring to bleed just after he proclaimed to the people «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، قُولُوا، لا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ تُفْلِحُوا» “O people, say there is no god but Allah and you shall be successful.” We strive to emulate the patience of Yaasir (ra), who witnessed the martyrdom of his parents, regarding whom RasulAllah (saw) said, «صَبْراً آلَ ياسر فإنَّ مَوْعِدَكُم الجَنَّة» “Have patience O family of Yaasir for indeed your abode is the Jannah.”

And we persist patiently, assured that after the ruler of tyranny and oppression, there is the Khilafah (Caliphate) on the Method of Prophethood. Ahmed narrated that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, «ثُمَّ تَكُونُ مُلْكًا جَبْرِيَّةً فَتَكُونُ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ تَكُونَ ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُهَا إِذَا شَاءَ أَنْ يَرْفَعَهَا ثُمَّ تَكُونُ خِلَافَةً عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ النُّبُوَّةِ» “Then there will be rule of tyrannical force, and things will be as Allah wishes them to be. Then Allah will end it when He wishes. And then there will be a Khilafah (Caliphate) on the Methodology of the Prophethood.” Indeed, it is the Sunnah of Allah (swt) to test Muslims, before extending them nasr (victory). So stand with us, besides us, behind us and in front of us, in raising the word of truth before tyrants!

O Officers of Pakistan’s Armed Forces! It is well-known to you that Hizb ut-Tahrir does not bear weapons, despite all the tyranny it has faced for over seven decades, throughout the Muslim World. Thus, Hizb ut-Tahrir strictly follows the example of the Messenger of Allah (saw) who limited himself in Makkah to the Dawah, and did not undertake any material, military actions, until he (saw) made Hijrah. When the people of the Second Pledge of Aqabah asked him (saw) for permission to fight the people of Mina with swords, he (saw) answered them by saying, «لَمْ نُؤْمَرْ بـِذَلِكَ» “We have not been ordered to do that yet.”

Now, whilst we, the Shebaab of Hizb ut Tahrir, do not bear weapons, we do demand that you, the people of weapons, power and strength, to extend your nussrah (military support) for the re-establishment of the Khilafah (Caliphate) on the Method of Prophethood. Our demand is in accordance to the methodology of the Prophet (saw). The Messenger of Allah (saw) personally met the men of war, fire and steel, and demanded from them the nussrah (military support) for the tamkeen (establishment) of the Deen. He (saw) sought the strong, discerning material capability in detail, asking, «فَهَلْ عِنْدَ قَوْمِكَ مِنْ مَنَعَةٍ؟»“Do your people have military strength?” Thus he (saw) met many tribes including; Banu Kalb, Banu Hanifah, Banu Amr bin Sa’asah, Banu Kinda and Banu Shaiban. He (saw) persisted in this methodology patiently until Allah (swt) granted success. The Ansar (ra) granted the Nussrah, and the Islamic State of Madinah was established. So, despite all the tyranny we face, we will persist in demanding that you grant nussrah (military support) for the re-establishment of the ruling by all that Allah (swt) has revealed. As for you, take care in your response, lest we bear witness against you before Allah (swt) on the Day of Judgement!
