O Muslims of Syria: Stay firm upon the Haqq because verily this regime is on the brink of a pit of fire

Assad employed the same type of words and statements used to justify the killing of people like: ‘A foreign conspiracy’, ‘Sectarian strife’, ‘Fighting against terrorism’, ‘An invitation to reform’…and the most dangerous of which was when he made clear his determination to deal with criminality when he repeatedly made one threat after another saying: “This will not be achieved except by striking the terrorists hard” knowing full well that those he is describing as terrorists and conspirators are none other than the unarmed believing Syrian people including its children, youth and elders, its men and women, its labourers and academics… those who he is taking revenge upon only because they have said to Bashaar: “You are a Zhaalim (oppressor)”!

Following the fourth speech of Bashaar…

O Muslims of Syria: Stay firm upon the Haqq because verily this regime is on the brink of a pit of fire

On Tuesday 10/01/2012 the tyrant Bashaar gave his fourth speech at Damascus University. Ten months have passed in which he has committed the most obscene massacres against his people. He repeated himself again, reiterating his commitment to his vision for dealing with the crisis and declared that he is in the midst of a battle against criminality which he is engaged in fighting and that he is not in a shell. He employed the same type of words and statements used to justify the killing of people like: ‘A foreign conspiracy’, ‘Sectarian strife’, ‘Fighting against terrorism’, ‘An invitation to reform’…and the most dangerous of which was when he made clear his determination to deal with criminality when he repeatedly made one threat after another saying: “This will not be achieved except by striking the terrorists hard” knowing full well that those he is describing as terrorists and conspirators are none other than the unarmed believing Syrian people including its children, youth and elders, its men and women, its labourers and academics… those who he is taking revenge upon only because they have said to Bashaar: “You are a Zhaalim (oppressor)”!

Indeed this regime proves day after day that it does not deserve to go on living any longer, not even for an extra hour because it is a regime which is an enemy to its people that has the notion nestling in its head that it is necessary to commit murder! As such it has not withdrawn even in the least of ways and instead has revealed its determination to continue killing and bring about termination, a matter which has begun to put pressure in the direction of those of his own gang that surround him.

What made Bashaar’s thinking reach to this level of criminality is the support from America including all its manoeuvrings, the inaction of the Arab and so called official Islamic entities, the weakness of the opposition, its divisions and contradictions due to its distance from Islam in addition to the collusion of the Arab League and its General Secretary who have been manufactured by America which has provided the Syrian regime more time to increase its killing. Despite all of this he will never be able by the permission of Allah to stop what is happening in Syria due to the insurmountable determination of the people, their patience and their willingness to bear sacrifices! Due to this Bashaar does not see any solution except the increase of killing so Bashaar came out in his speech declaring that the only way to solve the problem is to bring about termination and he repeated this wording ten times in his speech.

O revolutionary Muslims in the Shaam of the Messenger and the Shaam of Khair (goodness)!

You have indeed given the most brilliant examples for the entire world to take note of in facing this immoral regime, and you have shown real rare metal in determination. It was only due to your Imaan (belief) in Allah that is within your souls that has caused your old and young, men and women to gather together upon which you have gathered upon. So blessed be your strength, and blessed be your stand, your chants and resistance which have exposed the true reality of this criminal regime when they faced you with their brutal war machine. So remain firm because verily this regime is on the brink of a pit of fire and it will collapse very soon by the permission of Allah Ta’Aalaa. Close your ranks and hold firmly to your covenant which you made when you declared: “We will not bow down to other than Allah” so the issue is like you sincerely and truthfully declared by the will of Allah Ta’Aalaa: “If you give victory for Allah then Allah will give you victory.” And what is more excellent than the truthful words that were sung in your chants in Homs: “Are you waiting for the victory from Obama? Are you waiting for the victory from Erdogan?” Then you answered with fire in your throats that stirred the Imaan so that the whole world could hear: “There is nothing for us except Allah”.

O revolutionary Muslims in the Shaam of the Messenger and the home of the promised Khilafah!

Indeed the establishment of the rightly guided Khilafah in the blessed land of Shaam upon the ruins of this criminal regime is your opportunity to take the honour of establishing the promise of the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم by establishing it for its last time in your blessed land. So have Tawakkul upon Allah when seeking it with sincerity and Imaan and make it the aim of the revolution so that you can save yourselves and your Ummah through it from the clutches of the western disbelievers and from the fallacy and weakness of the democratic ruling systems to the truthful solutions from pure Islam. Here is Hizb-ut-Tahrir calling you, and it is sincerely bound to you to work in accordance to the method of the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم and there is no method that can stand up to it in terms of uprightness as Allah سبحانه وتعالى says:

قُلْ هَذِهِ سَبِيلِي أَدْعُو إِلَى الله عَلَى بَصِيرَةٍ أَنَا وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَنِي وَسُبْحَانَ الله وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ

“Say this is my way, I call to Allah upon awareness, I and those who follow me and Glory be to Allah and I am not from the Mushrikeen.” [Yusuf, 12:108]
