Press Release
Today Gaza and Yemen, and Tomorrow the rest of the Muslim lands, Unless their Armies Declare Mobilization
(Translated)

The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced that on the evening of Saturday, March 15, 2025, it launched a series of airstrikes on Houthi targets in Yemen. It claimed to have carried out precise strikes against the group's targets across Yemen, justifying the attacks as a defense of American interests, a deterrence against enemies, and a restoration of maritime freedom, according to its statement. By Thursday evening, March 20, dozens of U.S. airstrikes on Yemen had been reported, resulting in the deaths of 53 people and injuries to more than 100 others, most of whom were women and children. There are expectations that the operations will continue for weeks. These are the first strikes on Yemen since the ceasefire agreement between the Jewish entity and Hamas in Gaza last January, following Trump's vow to "completely eliminate them."

America rampages through all Muslim lands, threatening, intimidating, and killing as it pleases, following the submission of the cowardly conspiratorial Muslim rulers who wear the cloak of humiliation and disgrace. They are the ones responsible for this Ummah's calamity, stripping it of its dignity, diminishing its stature, and reducing it to a point where it is no longer feared, disregarded by the kuffar who have subjected it to various forms of torture, displacement, abuse, killing, and genocide.

O Muslims: America pursues a repressive policy to impose its plans upon you — either submission and surrender or the torment of war and genocide. The rapid pace of events, the intensification of suffering for our people in Gaza, and America's punishment of anyone who threatens its interests or those of the Jewish entity are all efforts to establish a mentality of defeat and helplessness to thwart any attempt to change the current reality. What is happening in Gaza and Yemen is only a prelude to what may come for the rest of your lands if you do not unite under one word and repel this aggression.

O Armies of Muslims: The calamity is severe. There is no obedience to rulers who have no legitimacy; rather, they must be deposed, and a general mobilization must be declared to liberate the blessed land of Palestine and all Muslim territories, to end the arrogance and crimes of America, the Jewish entity, and all those who declared war on Muslims, shedding their blood, violating their sanctities, killing their women and children, showing no mercy for their weakness, and desecrating their sacred sites.

Be the soldiers of Allah through whom the Deen (religion) is upheld, the enemies’ harm is repelled, the strength of Islam is preserved, and the sanctity of the faith is safeguarded. Sacrifice yourselves for the elevation of Allah's word so that the Deen belongs entirely to Him. Do not cast yourselves into destruction by abandoning jihad, for failing to mobilize in times of need is among the grave sins that incur the severest punishment.

[يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مَا لَكُمْ إِذَا قِيلَ لَكُمْ انفِرُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ اثَّاقَلْتُمْ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ أَرَضِيتُمْ بِالْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا مِنْ الآخِرَةِ فَمَا مَتَاعُ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا فِي الْآخِرَةِ إِلا قَلِيلٌ * إِلا تَنفِرُوا يُعَذِّبْكُمْ عَذَاباً أَلِيماً وَيَسْتَبْدِلْ قَوْماً غَيْرَكُمْ وَلَا تَضُرُّوهُ شَيْئاً وَاللهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ]

“O you who have believed, what is [the matter] with you that, when you are told to go forth in the cause of Allah, you adhere heavily to the earth? Are you satisfied with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter? But what is the enjoyment of worldly life compared to the Hereafter except a [very] little. (38) If you do not go forth, He will punish you with a painful punishment and will replace you with another people, and you will not harm Him at all. And Allah is over all things competent.” [At-Tawba:38-39].
