  Floods, a new test from Allah (SWT) for the people of Pakistan

  • Published in Politics
  •   |  

 

Pakistan is hit by the worst floods in its history.  According to rough estimates around 200 million people are affected by it.  Official death-toll figure hovers around the 1,500 mark while the actual number is feared to run in several thousands.  Many areas are still cut off from the main cities and the only way to reach people is through the air.

In such a catastrophe, the response of the rulers can at best be described as "pathetic" or "rubbing salt in an open wound".  Mr. Zardari, famously known as Mr. 10%, whisked away to France and Britain to enjoy his summer vocations, leaving his country submerged in water.  In Britain he was received by angry but peaceful protesters mobilized by Hizb ut-Tahrir Britain as well as his own not-so-peaceful party worker who greeted him by throwing two shoes at him at a party convention.  Initially the government and party officials flatly denied the incident but later accepted it and accused that the show-thrower was a member of Hizb ut-Tahrir who acted under the instruction of a PML-N leader.  A claim which is as ridiculous and farcical as Zardari's presidency! The show-thrower himself came on TV and claimed that he was an affiliate of the People's party.

The response of the Prime Minster, the chief executive of Pakistan, was not any better.  He was seen visiting emergency relief camps and distributing checks left, right and center only to be exposed later by the media that these camps as well as "victims" were fake!  These camps were only setup for photo-shoots and acquiring media footage to deceive the masses as to how "caring and vigilant" our Prime Minster was.  As for the response of the Federal and Provincial Ministers, they were protecting their own lands and industry by releasing flood water to poor localities and lands of small farmers.

The heartless government sees even this calamity as a golden opportunity to mint more money.  Prime minster today has refused to setup an independent aid commission which would maintain transparency.  The government officials are already asking for $15 billion aid similar to Marshall-Plan.  So as far as the ruling elite is concerned; the bigger the catastrophe the more money chances of money flowing to their personal kitties.

But the most dangerous of all is the way US is exploiting the situation to further her goals in the region, especially Pakistan.  America has sent 1000 Marines to Pakistan under the guise of flood relief activity.  The question is why we need thousand Marines when Pakistan itself has over half a million trained solders?  Nobody can answer the basic question as to why can't Pakistan pull its troops from FATA, who are fighting US's war of Terror, and use them in relief activity?  Another shocking news came from the Secretary of Health who claimed that Shahbaz Air Base at Jacobabad is under US control and cannot be used for relief efforts.  As a result health services cannot be provided to some 700,000 residents of Jacobabad.

Alhamdulillah, there is a good side to this gloomy situation in Pakistan. The Ummah lead by the media has woken up to this test of Allah (SWT).  One can see camps all over the major cities collecting food items, clothes, house-hold utensils and medicines.  People have no faith in the government this is why they are either taking the relief goods themselves or giving it to trusted organizations.  Donations from other Muslim countries have also started to poor in.  According to media reports just in a single day Muslims of Saudi Arabia collected $1.2 billion dollars of donations including goods; almost double than what US has given as relief (700 million).  

The floods have once again exposed the evil in these rulers and their master, America, but at the same time it has shown the Khair (good) present in the Ummah.  It was the same Ummah who generously helped their brothers and sisters during earthquake in 2005 and they are still doing their best in the current strangulating economic conditions.  These rulers have no place in this world let alone the thrones on which they so proudly sit on.  The dooms day for them is very near, by the leave of Allah (SWT).

We call upon the entire Muslims world to donate generously to their brothers in Pakistan who are in need in this hour of test.  May Allah help us and protect us all!

Hizb ut-Tahrir Wilayah Pakistan held seminars in the major cities of Pakistan

  • Published in Pakistan
  •   |  

     This year on the occasion of Ramadhan, Hizb ut-Tahrir Wilayah Pakistan held seminars in the major cities of Pakistan, Hizb ut-Tahrir Wilayah Pakistan issued the following seminar declarations:

 1. America's attempts to establish its own Raj, in the name of War on Terror, haved failed, which is an evidence of the strong adherence to Islam by the Muslims of Pakistan and their rejection of foreign dominance.

 2. The Muslims of Pakistan also reject the rulers who act as agents of America and try to save sinking America by sacrificing Pakistan's material resources and army. And the extreme neglect of the flood affected by the rulers is a further evidence that the current rulers must be uprooted and Khilafah "Caliphate" established in their place.

 3. The Muslims of Pakistan also reject the Western capitalist system, that has not only failed in Pakistan, it has collapsed at a global level. A system that can not secure the basic needs in normal times, much less in testing times, such as the current floods. And capitalism's collapse is a clear evidence of the fall of America.

 4. The Muslims of Pakistan are certain that the uprooting of the current system and establishing the Khilafah "Caliphate" in its place is inevitable and are witness that the situation in Pakistan is ripe for the establishment of the Khilafah "Caliphate", soon by the permission of Allah.

 5. As one of the first steps to change, the Muslims demand cutting the NATO supply line, which is essential for the presence of the warring kafir crusaders.

 6. The Muslims of Pakistan demand from the sincere and brave amongst the People of Power to uproot the agent rulers and grant Hizb ut-Tahrir the Nussrah for establishing the Khilafah "Caliphate", so that Pakistan becomes the starting point for the Khilafah "Caliphate", which will be the world's next superpower.

UN warns Pakistan floods could have bigger impact than world's last three natural disasters - as fears of more devastation grow

 News Details:

World's biggest in Mecca
A giant clock on a skyscraper in  Mecca began ticking on Wednesday at the start of the fasting month of Ramadan, amid hopes by Saudi Arabia it will become the Muslim world's official timekeeper. The Mecca Clock, which Riyadh says is the world's largest, has four faces measuring 43 metres in diameter. It sits 400 metres up what will be the world's second-tallest skyscraper and largest hotel, overlooking the city's Holy Grand Mosque, which Muslims around the world turn to five times a day for prayer."The Holy Mecca Clock started with the order of King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud ... one minute after 12 a.m. this morning, the first day of the holy month of Ramadan," Saudi state news agency SPA said.Over 90 million pieces of coloured glass mosaic embellish the sides of the clock, which has four faces each bearing a large inscription of the name "Allah." It is visible from all corners of the city, the state news agency said. The clock tower is the landmark feature of the seven-tower King Abdulaziz Endowment hotel complex, being built by the private Saudi Binladen Group, which will have the largest floor area of any building in the world when it is complete. Local media have said the clock tower project cost $3 billion (1.9 billion pounds).The clock is positioned on a 601-metre tower, which will become the second tallest inhabited building in the world when it is completed in three months' time."Because it based in front of the holy mosque the whole Islamic world will refer to Mecca time instead of Greenwich. The Mecca clock will become a symbol to all Muslims," said Hashim Adnan, a resident of nearby Jeddah who frequently visits Mecca.

Israeli general praises the conduct of troops aboard the Mavi Mamara
The head of Israel's military has defended its troops' use of live ammunition during a deadly raid on an aid flotilla sailing to Gaza in May. But Lt Gen Gabi Ashkenazi told an Israeli inquiry they underestimated the threat and should have used more force to subdue activists before boarding. Testifying before the Turkel Commission in Jerusalem on Wednesday, Gen Ashkenazi said he took full responsibility for the army operation and was "proud" of the commandos who took part. "We should have ensured sterile conditions in order to dispatch the forces in a minimum amount of time," he said. "It would have lowered the risk to our soldiers but it would not have prevented the tension... Once the decision was made to stop the ship, the conflict was inevitable." On Monday, Mr Netanyahu insisted Israel had acted legally and that every diplomatic effort had been exerted to have the ships turn back or dock elsewhere. He also accused the Turkish government of looking to gain from the high-profile confrontation.

Russians fear US is testing climate weapon
Russia's official news agency, RIA Novosti, reported on July 29 that the high temperatures that have affected Europe and central Russia for the past month have led local experts to wonder they may be attributable to some secret weapon now being tested by the United States. Gueorgi Vasiliev, a professor in the Physics Department at Moscow's Lomonosov University, told the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper that disasters have befallen the world ever since 1997 when, he said, the US put its HAARP radio apparatus into operation. According to RIA-Novosti, the radio transmitters in Alaska are "very powerful tool for influencing the ionosphere. Some military experts are inclined to think that it is a geophysical weapon." The report goes on to say that Professor Vasiliev also believes that the US would not have invested two decades and $250 million if its purpose is to merely study high-frequency radio waves.

Mideast and N Africa seek fresh grain supplies
Middle East and north African countries, the world's biggest cereal importers, have moved quickly to replace supplies from Russia following the country's grain export ban, and the region has so far escaped the panic of the 2007-08 food crisis.  Egypt, Tunisia, Lebanon and Jordan have all launched grain tenders this week to replace supplies from the Black Sea region of Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan. However, with stocks relatively high, officials in the region said they were not in a hurry to buy. "Egypt has in stock enough wheat to produce subsidised bread for the upcoming four months," said an official in the Egyptian trade ministry. "The policy to plan ahead to secure strategic commodities has worked." Middle East and north African countries buy almost a quarter of all the cereals traded globally. The provision of subsidised bread is a key strategy in the region for maintaining social peace.  Last year, Egypt bought 6m tonnes of wheat from Russia, a third of Moscow's overseas sales. Turkey, Syria, Iran, Libya, Israel, Jordan, Yemen and Iraq were also among the top 10 destinations for Russian wheat in the 2009-10 season.  Traders said Middle East and north African countries were now buying supplies from the European Union, particularly France, and as far afield as the US and Canada. Traders added that some countries in the region such as Egypt had told them not to offer supplies from Ukraine and Kazakhstan, even though neither country had formally banned grain exports.

UN warns Pakistan floods could have bigger impact than world's last three natural disasters - as fears of more devastation grow
The bleak warning came as Pakistan was threatened by further devastation as a key flood barrier looked set to fail. The intense flooding that began about two weeks ago has washed away roads, bridges and many communication lines, hampering rescue efforts. The UN said the final toll could exceed the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the 2005 Kashmir earthquake and the 2010 Haiti earthquake combined. Deaths in each of those were much higher than the 1600 people killed so far in the floods. But the Pakistani government estimates that more than 13million people have been affected - two million more than the other disasters. The number of people affected in the three other major recent disasters is five million in the tsunami and three million in each of the earthquakes. A spokesman for the UN Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs said: "It looks like the number of people affected in this crisis is higher than the Haiti earthquake, the tsunami or the Pakistan earthquake. "If the toll is as high as the one given by the government, it's higher than the three of them combined."

O' Muslims your Internal Conflict is adding to the Strength of the Invaders

It's now been long that a bloody conflict has erupted between two Afghan tribes, Kochian and Hazara. Many people have been killed on both sides and the conflict has not yet ended.

One Moon, one Ramadhan, one Eid and one Ummah!! The agent rulers once again divided the Ummah tun Wahidah on the issue of Ramadhan

These agent rulers once again divided the Ummah tun Wahida (the one Ummah) on the issue of starting the month of Ramadhan.  By rejecting the moon-sighting of the Arabs and the Ajam (non-Arabs), these rulers have not only fractured the unity and oneness of the Ummah but they have also forced millions of people to lose their first fast of Ramadhan.
