Egypt's Scholars Between Bearing God's Covenant and Trust and Political Distortion!

Egypt's Scholars Between Bearing God's Covenant and Trust and Political Distortion!

News:

The Misr Al-Aan website reported on Sunday, July 13, 2025, a speech by the Egyptian Minister of Endowments, Dr. Osama Al-Azhari, in which he called on the people of Gaza to remain steadfast on their land "no matter the sacrifices of lives and children," warning of a Zionist plan aimed at displacing the Palestinians and eliminating the Palestinian cause. These words came in the context of his attendance at the ninth media session organized by the Ministry of Endowments in cooperation with the Union of Radio and Television of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation countries. He also sent a message of greeting to the Egyptian President, praising the efforts of the Egyptian state under his leadership in supporting the Palestinian cause, and its insistence on bringing aid to the people of the sector, stressing that there is no alternative to the two-state solution and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.

Comment:

Al-Azhari's words appear to express sympathy and appreciation for the steadfastness of the people of Gaza, but they lack the correct Sharia basis that requires scholars to be at the forefront of those demanding the movement of Muslim armies to liberate Palestine, and not just calling on its people to remain steadfast as if they are the decision-makers, possessors of weapons, and armies! The people of Gaza do not need anyone to remind them of steadfastness, as they are a school in steadfastness and resilience, but rather they need someone to call for their liberation. The legitimate role of scholars in such a situation is clear and unambiguous, which is to speak the truth and demand the movement of armies to support them, not to praise the regimes that besiege them and protect the Jewish entity. Silence about their siege and refraining from inciting armies to support them, liberate them, and remove those who stand between them and this is a betrayal of God's covenant.

It is strange that Al-Azhari, in this speech, thanked and praised Sisi, and praised his role in supporting Gaza, which is a matter of surprise, astonishment, and even anger, because the Egyptian regime, as everyone knows, is one of the most prominent tools that besiege Gaza and prevent it from the means of life and salvation. It is the one who closes the Rafah crossing, and it is the one who prevents weapons from entering the resistance, while it brings in goods subject to Jewish control and supplies them with goods and weapons, buys stolen gas from the nation from them, and coordinates security and intelligence with the Jewish entity according to the Camp David agreement, and builds walls underground and above it to cut off any connection between Gaza and the depth of the Islamic nation. Is this the support for which the Egyptian regime is thanked?! And has betrayal become described as protection?!

Oh, Minister of Endowments! What you must carry and call for is the necessity of moving the armies of Muslims, led by the army of Kinana, to liberate Palestine, and not just praying for them and urging them to remain steadfast. Sharia requires its liberation and makes jihad in that cause one of the greatest duties, but rather makes it after faith in God.

The responsibility on scholars today is great, and the most dangerous thing that can happen is that religion is used to polish treason, and that sermons become a tool to cover up the crime. Let everyone who issues fatwas fear God, for the reckoning on the Day of Resurrection will not be in front of the cameras of the media, but in front of the King of Kings, the Almighty, the Compeller. What scholars must proclaim today is their address to the armies about the necessity of moving immediately to uproot the borders and liberate all of Palestine, for the platforms of scholars are not for calming down or praising, but rather platforms for proclaiming the truth, inciting jihad, and exposing traitors and agents.

As for those who say, "We have nothing but supplication," this is the saying of the incapable or the laggard, because scholars possess the word, the platforms, the fatwa, and the ability to influence the nation. If they are silent about moving the nation towards liberation, then they are partners in the continuation of the occupation.

What is required of you, oh scholars of Islam, and what is less than it is a betrayal of God, His Messenger, and His religion, is to mobilize the nation and its armies towards the liberation of all of Palestine and the removal of everything that stands between the armies and this duty of the regimes of treason and shame that protect the Jewish entity and guarantee its survival and continuity until they became its true Iron Dome. The liberation of Palestine begins with uprooting these regimes from their roots, and truthful is the one who said that the liberation of Palestine begins with the liberation of Cairo, and the liberation of Cairo means that this regime is uprooted and a state of Islam is established in it that mobilizes its army and its energies to support its people, liberate its land, and glorify its holy sites. Then the Jews will not find a land to carry them nor a sky to shade them, and the infidel West that supports them today will rush to wash its hands of them. Yes, this is what the state of Islam does. Oh God, hasten it and make the soldiers of Egypt its supporters.

﴿AND [mention, O Muhammad], when Allah took a covenant from those who were given the Scripture, [saying], "You must make it clear to the people and not conceal it." But they threw it away behind their backs and exchanged it for a small price. And wretched is that which they purchased.﴾

Turkey and Arab Regimes Asked Hamas to Lay Down Their Weapons

Turkey and Arab Regimes Asked Hamas to Lay Down Their Weapons

Turkey and Arab Regimes Asked Hamas to Lay Down Their Weapons

(Translated)

News:

The high-level United Nations international conference entitled "Finding a Peaceful Solution to the Palestinian Issue and Implementing the Two-State Solution" was held in New York on July 29 and 30, led by France and Saudi Arabia. Following the conference, which aimed to recognize Palestine as a state and end the war in Gaza, a joint declaration was signed. In addition to the European Union and the League of Arab States, Turkey also signed the declaration along with 17 other countries. The declaration, which consisted of 42 articles and an annex, condemned Operation Al-Aqsa Flood carried out by Hamas. The participating countries called on Hamas to lay down its weapons and demanded that it hand over its administration to the Mahmoud Abbas regime. (Agencies, July 31, 2025).

Comment:

Considering the countries running the conference, the presence of America is clearly evident, and despite not having the authority or influence to make decisions, the Saudi regime, its servant, accompanying France is the clearest evidence of this.

In this regard, French President Emmanuel Macron stated on July 24 that France would officially recognize the Palestinian state in September, and would be the first G7 country to do so. Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barreau held a press conference at the conference, announcing the goals of the New York Declaration. In fact, in the statement issued after the conference, the massacres of the Jewish entity were condemned without taking any punitive decision against it, and Hamas was asked to disarm and hand over the administration of Gaza to Mahmoud Abbas.

In the new Middle East strategy that America seeks to implement based on the Abraham Accords, the Salman regime represents the spearhead. Normalization with the Jewish entity will begin after the war, with Saudi Arabia; then other countries will follow, and this wave will turn into a strategic alliance extending from North Africa to Pakistan. The Jewish entity will also receive a security guarantee as an important part of this alliance; then America will use this alliance as fuel in its conflict against China and Russia, and to include Europe completely under its wings, and of course, against the possibility of establishing the Caliphate.

The obstacle to this plan currently is the war in Gaza and then the anger of the Ummah, which is increasing and is about to explode. Therefore, the United States preferred that the European Union, the Arab regimes, and Turkey take the initiative in the New York Declaration. Thinking that accepting the decisions contained in the declaration would be easier.

As for the Arab regimes and Turkey, their mission is to please the United States, protect the Jewish entity, and in return for this obedience, protect themselves from the anger of their peoples, and live a humiliating life with the crumbs of cheap power until they are thrown away or afflicted with the torment of the afterlife. Turkey's reservation on the declaration, on the condition that the so-called two-state solution plan is implemented, is only an attempt to cover up the real goal of the declaration and mislead Muslims, and it has no real value.

In conclusion, the path to liberating Gaza and all of Palestine is not through a fictitious state in which Jews live. The Islamic solution for Palestine is the rule of Islam in the usurped land, which is to fight the usurper, and to mobilize the armies of Muslims to uproot the Jews from the blessed land. The permanent and radical solution is to establish the Rightly Guided Caliphate and protect the blessed land of Isra and Mi'raj with the shield of the Caliphate. God willing, those days are not far away.

The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: "The Hour will not come until the Muslims fight the Jews, and the Muslims will kill them, until the Jew hides behind the stone and the tree, and the stone or the tree says: O Muslim, O servant of God, there is a Jew behind me, so come and kill him." (Narrated by Muslim)

What America Wants is Official Recognition of the Jewish Entity, Even if Weapons Remain

What America Wants is Official Recognition of the Jewish Entity, Even if Weapons Remain

What America Wants is Official Recognition of the Jewish Entity, Even if Weapons Remain

The News:

Most of the political and security news in Lebanon revolves around the issue of weapons targeting the Jewish entity, without any other weapons, and focusing on it by most political analysts and journalists.

Comment:

America is asking for the weapons that fought the Jews to be handed over to the Lebanese army, and it does not care about any weapons that remain in the hands of all the people, which can be used internally when it finds an interest in doing so, or between Muslims in neighboring countries.

America, the greatest enemy of us Muslims, said it frankly, even rudely, when its envoy Barack stated from Lebanon that the weapon that must be handed over to the Lebanese state is the weapon that can be used against the Jewish entity occupying blessed Palestine, and not any other individual or medium weapon because this does not harm the Jewish entity, but rather serves it and serves America and the entire West in inciting it to fight between Muslims under the pretext of takfiris, extremists, reactionaries, or backward people, or other descriptions that they fuel among Muslims under the pretext of sectarianism, nationalism, or ethnicity, or even between Muslims and others who have lived with us for hundreds of years and found nothing from us but the preservation of honor, money, and life, and that we were applying the laws to them as we apply them to ourselves, they have what we have and they are obligated to do what we are obligated to do. For the Sharia ruling is the basis of governance for Muslims, whether among themselves, or between them and other subjects of the state.

As long as our greatest enemy, America, wants to destroy or neutralize the weapon that harms the Jewish entity, then why focus on that among politicians and media professionals?!

Why are the most important topics raised in the media and in the Council of Ministers, at the request of the American enemy, without examining them in depth and clarifying the extent of their danger to the nation, the most dangerous of which is the demarcation of the land borders with the Jewish entity, that is, the official recognition of this occupying entity, in a way that no one after that has the right to carry weapons, any weapons, for the sake of Palestine, which is the property of all Muslims and not only the people of Palestine, as they try to convince us as if it belongs only to the people of Palestine?!

The danger lies in presenting this matter sometimes under the title of peace, sometimes under the title of reconciliation, and at other times under the title of security in the region, or under the title of economic, tourism and political prosperity, and the prosperity that they promise Muslims in the event of recognition of this monstrous entity!

America knows very well that Muslims can never be satisfied with recognizing the Jewish entity, and that is why you see it creeping into them through other things to distract them from the most important fateful matter. Yes, America wants us to focus on the issue of weapons, but it knows that weapons, no matter how powerful, will not work and cannot be used against the Jewish entity if official Lebanon recognizes it by demarcating the borders with it, and thus recognizes it and its right to the land of blessed Palestine, under the pretext of the Muslim rulers and the Palestinian Authority.

This recognition of the Jewish entity is a betrayal of God, His Messenger, and the believers, and of all the blood of the martyrs that has been shed and continues to be shed for the liberation of Palestine, and despite all that, we still hope for good in our nation, some of whom are fighting in Gaza, Hashim, and in Palestine, and they say to us with their blood: We will never recognize the Jewish entity, even if it costs us all this and more... So, do we accept in Lebanon to recognize the Jewish entity, no matter how difficult the circumstances are?! Do we accept to demarcate the borders with it, that is, to recognize it, even if the weapons are left with us?! It is the question that we must answer before it is too late.
