Hizb ut Tahrir is a political party solely based on Islam, Condemns Nationalism and Rejects Patriotism and calls for the unification of the Islamic Ummah in one state – the Righteous Khilafah State – and was established in Jerusalem in the heart of Bilad al-Sham in 1953

France 24 published on its official internet site on 11/9/2013 a video under the title: “Jihadist video condemning intervention in Syria exposed as fake“. This was published with comment that accused Hizb ut Tahrir of being behind its publication, and tried with distorted incompetent professionalism to show that this video was a fabrication, and claimed in conflicting words that Hizb ut Tahrir is an “Islamic-nationalist party established in Malaysia”, and continued in the same sentence “and struggles for the sake of the establishment of a Khilafah in the Islamic world.” So is it a narrow Islamic-nationalist party as they hypocritically claim, or is it for the Ummah worldwide as it is in truth?! They know the truth but they distort it!

We in Hizb ut Tahrir in Syria announce that this is loaded news, and the Imperialist French state’s official media is behind it. They were stunned to find the strong presence of the Hizb in al-Ghouta, so they wanted to isolate the Hizb with such shameless talk, and we informed them that their supposed intervention is only for their interests and the interests of the enemy of the Ummah “Israel”, and that is why you agreed to put your hand on the chemical weapons and leave the rest of his weapons for him to slaughter an innocent people whose only blame was that they said “Allah سبحانه وتعالى is our Lord.” And we give you tidings that Hizb ut Tahrir in Syria, and in all of the Muslim lands has been wholeheartedly accepted and will establish, with Allah’s سبحانه وتعالى help, the Righteous Khilafah on the way of the Prophethood, which will honor Islam and its people and disgrace Kufr and its people, and you are of its people. And we will not add to how you were described by the Holy Quran:

قَدْ بَدَتِ الْبَغْضَاء مِنْ أَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَمَا تُخْفِي صُدُورُهُمْ أَكْبَرُ قَدْ بَيَّنَّا لَكُمُ الآيَاتِ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ

“Hatred has appeared out of their mouths, but what their breasts hide is far worse. We have made the Signs clear to you if you use your intellect.”

(Al-Imran, 3:118)

And the Almighty says:

قُلْ مُوتُوا بِغَيْظِكُمْ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُورِ

“Say, ‘Die in your rage.’ Allah knows what your hearts contain.”

(Al-Imran, 3:119)
