News Right Now: Catastrophic Conditions

After two years of consistent bombardment by the Jewish entity, Gaza has become unlivable. With tens of thousands living in tents and others in unsteady homes, the winter rain and wind make it even harder for those within Gaza to survive. 55,000 families have so far been affected by the rains, with their belongings and shelters damaged or destroyed; seventeen residential buildings have collapsed completely because of the wind and rain while 90 buildings have collapsed partially, leaving people within them to live in very dangerous conditions, eleven of whom have lost their lives. Meanwhile, those who live in tents suffer from flooding tents and harsh winds.

The cold has become unbearable, with temperatures dropping to 7-8 degrees Celsius (45-46F) at night. The mix of the rain and wind, it has become almost impossible to keep children dry and warm. Those living in tents suffer from having their clothes and blankets soaked from the flooding. The moisture within the tents have also created an environment full of respiratory diseases.

A two week old baby boy had recently passed away due to acute hypothermia. He was born healthy, but the cold weather made it impossible for him to survive in the tent. When his parents had noticed that he was in a bad condition at night, there was no way to get the baby to the hospital in time. There was no form of transportation and due to the heavy rain, it wasn’t possible for the father to take their baby by foot. They had to wait until the next morning, where an animal drawn cart took the baby to the hospital. Even when rushed to the ICU, the baby died two days later. The mother pleaded saying, “We want a dignified life for our children, nothing more. Where are the caravans? Where are the housing units? Why is no one moving to save us?”

While Gaza and the Jewish entity are under a “ceasefire agreement”, the world is expecting that aid would flow back into Gaza and that the Jewish entity would stop bombarding Gaza. This is a false expectation. The reality is the Jewish entity continues to bombard places within Gaza and is not allowing aid to fully flow into Gaza, this makes re-constructing Gaza unmanageable.

This is a plain example of the treachery of the Muslim Rulers. While the people of Gaza are suffering at the hands of the US and its foster child, the Jewish entity, no one has stepped forth to actually put an end to the people of Gaza’s misery. They have betrayed the Ummah, leaving them to fend for themselves in the face of oppression. They have abandoned the Ummah by placing their hands in the hands of the US and international resolutions. They have left the Ummah and sent no army to fight the army of the Kuffar, the Jewish Entity, facilitated by the US. The rulers may send some bit of aid, but they are not solving the problem the Ummah of Muhammad (saw) within Gaza are facing on a daily basis. They have turned their backs on the Ummah.

One of the star players that is playing a role in the betrayal of the Ummah is Asim Munir, Pakistan’s military chief. The position he has reached is higher than the normal military chief. He is in the process of retaining a field marshal title forever along with gaining immunity from any criminal prosecution. He is a chief that seems to be given a lot of power.

He is expected to visit the US and meet with Pharaoh Trump within the upcoming days, this will be his 3rd visit within the last six months. It is expected that this meeting will be about the new steps towards building the Gaza force- a force created by Pakistan, which is expected to go into Gaza and assist with demilitarizing the strip. This would mean that Pakistani Troops are to be sent on behalf of the US-backed plan.

If this plan is to take action, this would mean that our brothers and sisters would be sent, by orders from Asim Munir and Trump, not as protectors of the Ummah, but protectors of the Zionist occupiers. The Pakistani Troops would be sent to the blessed land, not to liberate it, but to keep the Zionists Entity’s chains secure and their grip firm on Masjid Al-Aqsa, the Gaza Strip, and the entire Blessed Land!

How long are we going to stand by and watch them betray our Ummah like this? Shedding our blood, taking our land, and leaving us without a protector or helper?! How long are we going to watch the suffering of our brothers and sisters, young and old? How long will we keep delaying the call and the action towards establishing the Khilafah (Caliphate) state that would give all our rights back! That would liberate all our brothers and sisters that have suffered at the hands of the colonizing west?! Until when are we going to sit back and let them take, steal, and kill?!

It is time to establish the Khilafah and call on the armies, not to go to Palestine to demilitarize the strip, but to fight to liberate all of Palestine and all of Al-Sham! Then and only then will the Muslim Ummah respond to the words of grieving mothers when they ask “Why is no one moving to save us?”

This is a plea that those in power ignore; but Allah (swt) hears them. Allah (swt) is aware of all the shortcomings.

[فَلْيُقَـٰتِلْ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَشْرُونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا بِٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ ۚ وَمَن يُقَـٰتِلْ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ فَيُقْتَلْ أَوْ يَغْلِبْ فَسَوْفَ نُؤْتِيهِ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًۭا *وَمَا لَكُمْ لَا تُقَـٰتِلُونَ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَٱلْمُسْتَضْعَفِينَ مِنَ ٱلرِّجَالِ وَٱلنِّسَآءِ وَٱلْوِلْدَٰنِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَآ أَخْرِجْنَا مِنْ هَـٰذِهِ ٱلْقَرْيَةِ ٱلظَّالِمِ أَهْلُهَا وَٱجْعَل لَّنَا مِن لَّدُنكَ وَلِيًّۭا وَٱجْعَل لَّنَا مِن لَّدُنكَ نَصِيرًا]

Let those who would sacrifice this life for the Hereafter fight in the cause of Allah. And whoever fights in Allah’s cause—whether they achieve martyrdom or victory—We will honour them with a great reward. * And what is it with you? You do not fight in the cause of Allah and for oppressed men, women, and children who cry out, “Our Lord! Deliver us from this land of oppressors! Appoint for us a saviour; appoint for us a helper—all by Your grace.” [Surah Al Nisa: Ayat 74-75]
