The Islamic Ummah is Capable of Thwarting America’s Plans and Establishing Khilafah
(Translated)

The situation in the Middle East indicates that it is truly occupied land. It is an arena of conflict between colonialist powers. The Islamic Ummah is oblivious to this, and needs someone to mobilize it and awaken it from this neglect created by colonialist policies. The colonialist policies are represented by the colonialist culture that they thought they had dazzled the world with, with the media deception churned out by the media machine. It includes economic control to impoverish Muslims, amongst many other mechanisms to distract the Ummah. All of these tools are implemented by the rulers of the harmful states existing in the lands of Islam. These rulers are the agents of the colonialist power America, Britain and their allies.

In light of these conditions and negligence, there are events and realities that move and awaken the Ummah. These include the emergence of the shamelessness, defiance, arrogance and disdain with which Donald Trump deals, which provokes the feelings of Muslims. What is even more provocative is the complete submission and obedience of the rulers of Muslims, in addition to their betrayals and stances that contradict the interests of the Ummah. All this certainly prompts Muslims to seek change, and to seek a true leadership that is of their nature, which will lead them to safety. Muslims seek a wise leadership that works to care for the affairs of the Ummah, and preserves its economic, military and human capabilities, and before all of these its intellectual capabilities. This leadership is chosen with consent, and pledged a Bayah of allegiance for that preservation, so that the Ummah can carry out its Shariah obligation in implementing Islam and carrying it to the people.

The mission of this leadership is to look after the domestic affairs of the Ummah, by satisfying its basic and luxury needs according to Islamic Shariah. It also looks after its foreign affairs by carrying Islam as a universal risaalah (message), to bring people out of the darkness of kufr, and liberate them from the injustice and oppression of capitalism, to the light and justice of Islam. The question here is, can the Islamic Ummah achieve what it aspires to, and confront this arrogant American policy and thwart it, in light of these tragic conditions?

To answer this question and other similar questions, we must know the assets and strength of the Islamic Ummah. To make the matter clearer, we must know the reasons for the colonialist interest in the Middle East region.

The Middle East in world politics has an issue called “the Middle East issue,” which is related to Islam and its threat to colonialism, in addition to the strategic location, its control over the transport routes between the major continents, the Jewish entity, and its being the first line of defense for Western interests, colonialism and material interest. An issue like this is undoubtedly extremely important, not only for the people of the region, but for the entire world.

Among the assets of the Ummah’s strength for liberation (tahrir) and revival is the enormous human power, with a huge number of Muslims around the world, which is around two billion people, more than 80% of whom are of the age of active participation and production, as their ages range between 15 and 45 years.

Its assets also include massive armed forces that are dozens of times larger than the armies of America and Europe when combined.

Its assets include its strategic location and control over transport routes, because its region intersects ancient continents. This is in addition to its control over straits and warm waters.

Among these assets is that the land is rich in raw materials including various types of minerals, petroleum, natural gas, vast areas of agricultural land, poultry production, and a huge amount of livestock.

The most important power that unifies these assets, and others, is the intellectual power built on the Islamic Aqeedah that unifies the energies of the Ummah, by unifying its countries by removing the political barriers created by the kafir colonialists. The combination of these assets and tremendous power in one Ummah is sufficient to transform it into the strongest Ummah, and transform its state into the undisputed leading state.

Another element of the strength of the Islamic Ummah is the weakness of the colonialist powers, which makes the international situation in its favor. Russia has grown old. Europe is in between two heads, one of which is the malicious Britain, and the other is France, which aspires to leadership without awareness or wisdom. Therefore, the two heads do not meet, and the failure to meet weakens their treachery, and thus weakens Europe.

America is the most powerful of these colonialist powers. However, its arrogance kills it, makes it lose its thinking, and destroys it through lack of planning. This is the way of tyrants who think of themselves as gods. This is how Pharaoh was. His arrogance prevented him from thinking that the sea cannot be crossed on foot except with the help of Allah (swt), Whom he denies. So he stormed the sea and perished, along with his people. This is how Hitler was. Now, here, is America, led by Trump, whose arrogance prevents America from thinking, so it thinks the world is a ranch for it to penetrate anywhere as if it were on a picnic. It is as if the lack of thinking prevented it from realizing that the Islamic Ummah possesses a powerful weapon; a vibrant, truthful Aqeedah that provides it with a fighting energy that tyrants, led by America, do not realize.

Therefore, America, with its tyranny, bears its own death in its own hands, because arrogance kills its possessor, no matter how strong he is. So, O Muslims, embrace glad tidings for the victory over them, and the return of your state to be the leading in the world, spreading truth and justice throughout the world and forming a new international scenario.

The Islamic Ummah is stronger than the forces of evil, no matter how much they come together, for two reasons:

First, it has a comprehensive thought about the life, man and the universe that no one else has. It is a powerful thought that gives a true picture of the world, people, countries, and societies. At the same time, it has the correct way to overcome the states of kufr, no matter what they are.

The other is that it possesses a material power that no one else possesses. It is a resourceful power that no other power can match, and it is its property and at its disposal.

O Muslims: Hizb ut Tahrir is amongst you and with you. It has pledged to Allah (swt), His Messenger (saw), and you, to continue to exert its utmost effort in carrying the call to resume the Islamic way of life, by establishing the Khilafah Rashidah (rightly-guided Khilafah) on the method of the Prophethood, which the Messenger of Allah (saw) gave glad tidings of its return, after the current oppressive rule.

Due to its love for good for you, Hizb ut Tahrir calls upon you to join its ranks from today before that glorious day passes you by. This is so that you may participate in its establishment, and attain goodness and reward, because this is the Shariah obligation before your Lord, the path to your glory, and the victory of your Deen.
