O People of Sudan: The US is the Enemy to Islam and Muslims!

Therefore Remove its Influence on this Muslim Country!

(Translated)

The Sudanese president Omar Al-Bashir excused himself from participating in the American Islamic Summit in Riyadh. He appointed the director of his office, the Minister of State, to represent him in the Summit after it was made clear by the US that Trump does not want him to participate and after Saudi Arabia insisted that he should not participate in the Summit on Saturday (Sudan Tribune, 19/5/2017). The president’s excuse came few days after a release from the American Embassy published on Wednesday 17/5/2017 stating: “…we oppose invitations, facilitation and even travel support to any person who is subject to arrest warrants by the International Criminal Court.”

Based on the above, we in Hizb ut Tahrir Wilayah of Sudan emphasize the following:

This is the truth about the US, it is the enemy of Islam and Muslims and it is a belligerent enemy – it does not respect its friends or its enemy. Allah (swt) has shown the non-Muslim’s personality and exposed their view on Muslims – the view of humiliation and disdain. That view will not change unless the Muslim refuses the belief in the Sharia of Allah Almighty, this is what Allah swt said:

﴿وَلَنْ تَرْضَى عَنْكَ الْيَهُودُ وَلا النَّصَارَى حَتَّى تَتَّبِعَ مِلَّتَهُمْ قُلْ إِنَّ هُدَى اللَّهِ هُوَ الْهُدَى وَلَئِنِ اتَّبَعْتَ أَهْوَاءَهُمْ بَعْدَ الَّذِي جَاءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ مَا لَكَ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ وَلِيٍّ وَلا نَصِيرٍ﴾

“And never will the Jews or the Christians approve of you until you follow their religion. Say “Indeed, the guidance of Allah in the only guidance.” If you were to follow their desires after what has come to you of knowledge, you would have against Allah no protector or helper.” [Al-Baqarah: 120]

In spite of the large concessions the government in Sudan has presented the US with: the separation from the South, the changing of laws so they fit the whims of the US and the International laws and charters, the engagement in the war against Islam in the name of war against terror and opening up the country to the US intelligence and its spy agencies – in spite of all this the US will not be pleased with us. Now the US treats the country’s leader Al-Bashir in a shameless manner as it is known for. The natural reaction after such a provocative position should be the Shari’ position to cut its ropes, remove its influence from Sudan, shut down its embassy – the nest of treachery and spying on the country, its security services should be dismissed from our country instead of facilitating them and then a Khilafah Rashida on the method of the Prophethood should be established, which will cherish Islam and Muslims. This is what Hizb ut Tahrir has kept explaining to the Muslims all the time, except the leaders and politicians in Sudan think that the US will protect their ruling seats with its crooked legs – but how impossible! The US is only concerned with its own interests; and when someone has exhausted its purpose, he is tossed aside.

In conclusion, O people of Sudan: there is no good in the US, as Allah (swt) said:

﴿مَّا يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ وَلاَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ أَن يُنَزَّلَ عَلَيْكُم مِّنْ خَيْرٍ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ﴾

“Neither those who disbelieve from the People of the Scripture nor the polytheists wish that any good should be sent down to you from your Lord” [Al-Baqarah: 105].

Know that it is only through the Islamic State that we will regain greatness and dignity. A Khilafah Rashida on the method of the Prophet, the rule of Islam promised by Allah and brought to us as a glad tiding from the truthful Prophet – therefore work for its establishment. The Almighty said:

﴿وَلِلَّهِ الْعِزَّةُ وَلِرَسُولِهِ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَلَكِنَّ الْمُنَافِقِينَ لا يَعْلَمُونَ﴾

“And to Allah belongs all honor, and to His Messenger, and to the believers, but the hypocrites do not know” [Al-Munafiqoun: 8].
