Gaza! O Gaza! O Lions Amongst Men!
Gaza! O Gaza! O Falcons of the Skies!
Gaza! O Gaza! O Armed Forces!

The Jews have bombed and martyred hundreds of Palestinians in the past few days, their dismembered bodies, their heads severed, and their body parts littering the streets. People have written their last wills. They are writing the names of their children on their hands, so that they can be recognized among the mutilated bodies. This is in addition to the fact that since 3 March, the food supply to Gaza has been completely cut off and the people are suffering from forced starvation. Now the Jews have launched Operation “Gideon’s Chariots” under which the children of Gaza will either be martyred or deported. The reason for this arrogance of the Jews is that the Muslim armed forces have been prevented from the Shariah obligation of Jihad according to the command of Allah, and have been limited to nationalistic borders. Allah (swt) said,

[وَمَا لَـكُمْ لَا تُقَاتِلُوْنَ فِىْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ وَالْمُسْتَضْعَفِيْنَ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ وَالنِّسَاۤءِ وَالْوِلْدَانِ الَّذِيْنَ يَقُوْلُوْنَ رَبَّنَاۤ اَخْرِجْنَا مِنْ هٰذِهِ الْـقَرْيَةِ الظَّالِمِ اَهْلُهَا ۚ وَاجْعَلْ لَّـنَا مِنْ لَّدُنْكَ وَلِيًّا وَاجْعَلْ لَّـنَا مِنْ لَّدُنْكَ نَصِيْرًا]

“How is it that you do not fight in the way of Allah and in support of the helpless, men, women and children, who pray, ‘Our Lord, bring us out of this land whose people are oppressors and appoint for us from Yourself, a protector, and appoint for us from Yourself a helper’?” [TMQ Surah An-Nisa, 4:75].

O Pakistan’s Armed Forces! Once again you have seen that honor lies solely in jihad with the kuffar. You have seen that the entire Ummah, in the East and the West, has stood behind you, on your right and left, as your shoulders and arms. You have come to know that the cowardly stance of your rulers, claiming that the Hindu State is very strong and we are powerless to compete with them, was completely false. Your one restrained, limited blow has made you and the kuffar realize your power. So what will the kuffar realize when you are fully unleashed in Jihad? This is the situation of the Jews and America as well, who have never fought the army of a Muslim land under any sincere leadership. They are not even capable of defeating a single militia. So come forth and may Allah (swt) be with you. The survival of American power and the Jewish presence in this region is solely due to the rulers over the Muslims. These rulers are welcoming Trump to the land of Muslims, requesting him to mediate their problems, trying to outdo each other in pleasing him, pleading with him, and are offering the capital and blood of Muslims to delight him.

O Pakistan’s Armed Forces! After the honor and victory that Allah (swt) has bestowed upon you, will you return to the barracks so that the rulers of Muslims can continue the rule of Trump and America on the lands of Muslims? This Ummah is the Ummah of Jihad, this Ummah is the Ummah of the Prophet (saw) of fighting and victory over the disbelievers. Jihad is the life of this Ummah, and you are its vanguard in Jihad. Do you not yearn to liberate Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa from the impurity of the Jews and offer the Salah of victory within its blessed precincts? Gaza is calling, answer it! O lions of the armies of the Ummah! Do for the sake of Gaza what you have not done till now! Erase the nationalistic borders! Declare liberation (tahrir) from the restraints of the nation-state! Grant your Nussrah (military support) for the appointment of a Khaleefah Rashid (rightly-guided Caliph)!

Gaza! O Gaza! O Lions amongst Men! Gaza! Gaza! O Falcons of the Skies! Gaza! O Gaza! O Armed Forces! The Messenger of Allah (saw) said,

«لَتُقَاتِلُنَّ الْيَهُودَ فَلَتَقْتُلُنَّهُمْ، حَتَّى يَقُولَ الْحَجَرُ: يَا مُسْلِمُ، هَذَا يَهُودِيٌّ فَتَعَالَ فَاقْتُلْهُ»

“You will certainly fight the Jews and you will kill them until a stone will cry out: Come here, O Muslim, there is a Jew hiding behind me; kill him.” [Sahih Muslim]
