Hizb ut-Tahrir Egypt advises Muslim groups engaged with the regime

“The Muslim Brotherhood” remains silent in parliament while the regime attacks it. The “Freedom and Justice” Party threatens to merely ‘review’ the Camp David Agreement if America stops its aid! Indeed, this is very strange!

The Administrative Judiciary Court is considering legal action that calls for the disbanding of the Muslim Brotherhood: freezing of all their activity, bank accounts and funds; closing all of their premises; removing banners labelled “Headquarters of the Muslim Brotherhood; and prohibiting the use of its name in all visual and audio media. This is because they engage in public work without a license from the Ministry of Social Affairs; and because of their violation of the NGO law, according to the ‘Political Party Law’, which prevents the work of any political party founded on a religious basis.

At the same time, Dr. Essam el-Erian, Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee in the People’s Assembly, said that Egypt has the right to review the peace agreement with the Zionist entity if the United States reduced the aid it has provided to Egypt since the signing of the Agreement in 1979.

Mohammed Mursi, the head of the Freedom and Justice Party said in a press statement that “U.S. aid is part of the Camp David agreement between Egypt and Israel, and the American side guarantees it. Moreover, the U.S. is an original signatory to it”. He described the “threat of the U.S. administration stopping it as inappropriate, otherwise the agreement would be reviewed and might fail”. He added saying: “There is no room to talk about the aid except within the framework of the agreement”.

The newspaper, Al-Masryoon, published revelations about plan for the division of Egypt; and of the presence of more than 150 CIA operatives spying against Egypt, interfering in its affairs and working in the U.S. embassy.

We, in Hizb ut-Tahrir – Wilaya of Egypt, say to those elected to the People’s Assembly:

Wake up from your negligence! Look at what is being plotted for Egypt and its people from its enemies: the Americans, the Zionist occupiers and their agents. The people elected you for Islam, which you raised as a slogan. This Islam prohibits the Camp David agreement with an enemy that occupies the Aqsa Mosque and the blessed land around it. This Islam also forbids the acceptance of any aid from the nation’s enemy, America that gives them a complete control over Egypt through the harsh conditions they impose in return for this aid. Allah Almighty says,

وَلَنْ يَجْعَلَ اللَّهُ لِلْكَافِرِينَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ سَبِيلًا

“Allah will never allow the disbelievers to have a way over the believers.” [An-Nisaa, 141]

How can it be that you beg the Americans, who plan to divide Egypt and to impoverish it, to give you a forbidden thing in return for a commitment to another forbidden thing? This is instead of sweeping them out of the land of Kenana?! Indeed

Allah Almighty will account you for your negligence of the divine rules which He obliged upon you, particularly now you are speaking and making decisions on behalf of those who elected you?

The regime has not fallen, though some of its symbols have been overthrown. Therefore, the Constitution and all laws that are imposed upon the people must be swept away and replaced by the divine law (shar’) of Allah: completely, not in bits. The regime’s attempt at implementing the Political Party Law upon you is simply another proof of their efforts to circumvent the revolution, which was basically a reaction against injustice and all of who stand behind it, in all their forms. So, why do you stay silent about this unjust Party law?!

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لِمَ تَقُولُونَ مَا لَا تَفْعَلُونَ

كَبُرَ مَقْتًا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَنْ تَقُولُوا مَا لَا تَفْعَلُونَ

“O you who believe! Why do you say something which you do not do? Most loathsome is it in the sight of Allah that you say what you do not do!” [As-Saff, 61:2-3]
