Reject the Saudi Based Coalition of Treachery:

It is Forbidden in Islam to Act as a Mercenary Force to Assist the West’s Crusade

Pakistan’s Defence Minister, Khawaja Muhammad Asif, on 6 January 2017 confirmed that the former army chief, General (retd) Raheel Sharif, was made chief of the Saudi-based 39-Muslim nation military coalition to combat “terrorism” and that this step was taken with the government’s consent. It is obvious to any sane and aware person that the global “War on Terror” is a war on Islam and Muslims. This crusade is spearheaded by the Western colonialist nations and implemented by their agents in the Muslim World. This crusade is to suppress the awakening of the Ummah from her previous slumber, in a bid to prevent or at least delay its revival in general, and the return of the Khilafah (Caliphate) on the Method of the Prophethood, in particular.

Yet, the current rulers in the Muslim World rush to volunteer our armed forces for participation in global and regional alliances to assist their Western masters. They rush in a bid to force the Ummah to accept all manner of injustice against her, whether it is her open slaughter, occupation of her lands or the denial of her right to be unified and ruled by Islam through the Khilafah, with the recent events in Syria being a powerful, clear example. The agents rush to assist the Western crusaders who have failed to subdue the Ummah using their own cowardly troops and so now demand the use of Muslim troops to do their dirty jobs. They rush even though Allah (swt) forbade any alliance or assistance in sin in His saying,

﴿وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَىٰ وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ

“And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty.” [Surah Al-Ma’ida 5:2]

O Sincere Muslim Officers in Pakistan’s Armed Forces! Having used Muslim troops from all over the world under the United Nations, the Western crusaders have now deployed the treacherous Saudi regime to exploit the combined military strength of the Ummah at a most critical period in human history. Today in Syria, despite the fall of Aleppo, neither Russia nor America have any hope of preventing the return of the Khilafah (Caliphate) of the Method of the Prophethood, despite all their political maneuvering and so are yanking hard on the chains of their agents, from Cairo to Riyadh and onwards to Islamabad. As the restless Ummah awakens to Islam, it is upon you to reject the treacherous rulers in their demands to stand with them in sin. See how these traitors seek to reduce the formidable Pakistani armed forces to a mercenary force to serve the Western Crusader colonial interests around the world at the drop of a hat, yet scorn at Hizb ut Tahrir’s call for the Muslim armed forces to be mobilized in support of the Muslims of Afghanistan, Occupied Kashmir, Palestine and Syria!

It is forbidden (Haraam) in Islam for your blood, fire and steel to be exploited in any alliance to assist the Western crusaders war in their war on Muslims, their Deen and their Khilafah. It is indeed regrettable that a general of the Muslim Pakistan armed forces, from within your ranks, O officers, should become the head of mercenary forces formed to destroy Yemen, in a struggle for dominant influence between the criminal, Britain, and the arrogant, United States. Reject the Saudi based coalition of treachery for the sake of Allah (swt), His Messenger (saaw) and the Believers. Matters have come to a head for the Ummah and you are the ones who can grant her the future she deserves. Grant the Nussrah to Hizb ut Tahrir under its Ameer, Sheikh Ata Bin Khalil Abu Al-Rashtah now. Only then will these traitors be seized and you will be mobilized by a Khalifah Rashid in support of the Muslims of Syria, Palestine, Yemen, Occupied Kashmir, Afghanistan and any other place where the Muslims invoke their right upon you.
