COMMENT: Russia and Tajikistan Agreement on Russian Military Base

“This autumn Tajikistan’s parliament will ratify the agreement on extending the period of stay of the Russian military base,” – reported President of Republic Emomali Rahmon. Agreement with Tajikistan was signed on the 5th October 2012 in Dushanbe. The period of stay of the Russian military base in the republic was extended until 2042, informed news agency RIA 01/08/2013, describing the negotiations between Vladimir Putin and Emomali Rahmon.

“According to the preliminary data, Russia will send $200 million for upgrading the Tajik’s army until 2025. Russian Defence Minister Sergey Shoygu stated about this,” reported by Russia Today (01/08/2013).

In addition, Saifullo Safarov, the director of the Center for Strategic Studies under the President of Tajikistan, said in an interview with the radio station “Voice of Russia” dated 20/07/2013: “There are some forces, which want to re-establish the Islamic Caliphate. They are organizations such as Hizb ut-Tahrir… So four states of Central Asia together are under the danger of this project. And everybody keeps silent. We have to be careful.”

Comment:

Russia spends hundreds of millions of dollars to prepare for the Islamic awakening in Central Asia, which is coming soon, according to experts’ estimates. In addition, an important catalyst of this process can be a final withdrawal of ISAF troops from Afghanistan.

Significantly, Russia together with strengthening its own military base is ready to improve a foreign army, spending $200 million for this. All these actions are for strengthening the Russian buffer zone, which includes in itself Islamic countries of Central Asia.

Countries moved from the verbal rhetoric and appeals to the specific military preparations, and this fact indicates, that the disbelievers see and feel coming changes. Moreover, they do not make a mistake in their estimates, because the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said:

“ثُمَّ تَكُونُ خِلَافَةً عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ النبوة”

“…And then there will be caliphate (once again) upon the Prophetic method” delighting Muslims by this good news. That is what worries the unfaithful tyrants and theirs supporters, which occupy Islamic lands, exploiting their people and torturing Muslims.

However, actions committed by these countries on their territories against Muslims, are more expressive in demonstrating their fear of Great Islam and the Noble Ummah! Banning of fundamental Islamic books, hijab and detaining for demonstrating the flag of the Messenger of Allah – all this is a real struggle against Islam as a religion to prevent its revival.

The actions of Russia and its allies against the Ummah demonstrate that we live in times of great change, when we witness a global alteration in the geopolitical architecture of the world. These are the times, when the Ummah with Allah’s permission, finally throws off the yoke of Kufr and perverse systems, imposed on it by the disbelievers! And how beautiful is this time!

Allah سبحانه وتعالى says:

وَيَوْمَئِذٍ يَفْرَحُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ

بِنَصْرِ اللَّهِ ۚ يَنْصُرُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ ۖ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ

وَعْدَ اللَّهِ ۖ لَا يُخْلِفُ اللَّهُ وَعْدَهُ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

“On that day, the believers will rejoice in Allah’s help. He grants victory to whoever He wills. He is the Almighty, the Most Merciful. That is Allah’s promise. Allah does not break His promise. But most people do not know it.”

(Ar-Rum, 30:4-6)
