The American Radio Azadi (Radio Freedom) is Distorting Reality about Hizb ut Tahrir

On 17th December, 2013, the American Radio “Freedom” which is financed by the U.S. Congress, in its recent report warned the government of Afghanistan about the rise of activities of Hizb ut Tahrir. This report is allegedly referred to a youth forum “Samon ao Badloon” as saying that if the government of Afghanistan will not take action against Hizb ut Tahrir, they like Taliban will be a great danger to the current system.

The Media Office of the Hizb ut Tahrir in Wilayah Afghanistan consider this report as part of the overall propaganda of the crusader invaders in the ongoing ‘war of terror’ and wants to elucidate the following points, based on the Islamic politics, to all the media and Muslim Ummah;

1. There is no professional balance in the report of the Radio Azadi, as they have just published what the youth forum mentioned and the Afghan intelligence agency have fed them, and have not taken any burden to contact the media office of Hizb ut Tahrir Wilayah Afghanistan and ask for our opinion, knowingly that members of Hizb ut Tahrir are present in all spheres of Afghan society, working actively to re-establish the Islamic Khilafah following the methodology of the Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم.

2. As every Muslim in Afghanistan knows that Radio Azadi has always been active to distort facts about Islam and realities on the ground, hence in this report they have followed the same pattern by not conducting proper research about an organization that is very near to establish the Islamic Khilafah and to take charge of the affairs of the global Muslims Ummah. The erroneous report said that they have even mentioned that Hizb ut Tahrir was established in 1957, but with a simple they could have discovered that HT was established in 1953. Similar to this, they have mentioned many other ambiguous and unclear statements about Hizb ut Tahrir to confuse the public opinion about the party.

3. The same Radio referred to an unknown employee of the Afghan National Directorate of Security and asked him, why are members of Hizb ut Tahrir not arrested? He replied; the Afghan Intelligence Agency is monitoring the activities of Hizb ut Tahrir and its workers, as soon as the government officials will command them we will start our activities against Hizb ut Tahrir. Alas, they are ignorant about the fact that from 2009 onwards government of Afghanistan is ruthlessly arresting our members and have arrested tens of our members so far. The National Directorate of Security (NDS) in fact doing all these crimes in a way not to let the people of Afghanistan learn of it, so that to keep the people of Afghanistan in the dark and confused. It is worth mentioning here that just few days ago the Intelligence officials of Kapisa Province have arrested many of our members, who are still in their ruthless custody.

4. The report also mentions that the party (Hizb ut Tahrir) negates military struggle to achieve its objective but support militancy against the state and other international organizations. Therefore, some observers consider them as a threat to the national security.

The only threat to the national security are the invaders in the form of U.S. NATO and their failed system (Democracy), their sponsored organizations, puppet rulers, their evil intelligence agencies and their private security companies, who by bomb blasts and other such activities are trying to create chaos in Afghanistan and other parts of the Muslim world and accusing Muslims so that to pave way for their long term presence in Afghanistan.

Lastly, we would like to say to Samon ao Badlon youth forum and other such groups that being Muslims it’s your duty as well to call for a comprehensive Islamic rule. It is the promise of Allah سبحانه وتعالى and glad tidings of our beloved Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم that Khilafah will re-establish upon the method of Prophethood, and majority of the Muslims of Afghanistan and the rest of the Islamic world are convinced about this and consider it an issue of life and death.
