Press Release
O Muslims! Do not underestimate your deeds by looking at the deeds of others!
You are the witnesses over mankind!
(Translated)
The aid ship "Madeleine" heading to Gaza, and the actions of its famous non-Muslim activists, have resonated widely in mainstream media and online social media. Several countries, including Turkey, have provided "advisory support" to their citizens on board the ship seized by the terrorist Jewish entity.
As we have witnessed many times before, these actions undertaken by non-Islamic initiatives receive great praise in the media and on social media. Some short-sighted individuals, especially anti-Islamic factions, exploit these actions as an opportunity to belittle the struggle of millions of Muslims and disregard their faith and feelings! They ignore the reactions, actions, and sincere efforts made by Muslims against invasions and oppression in Palestine, East Turkestan, Syria, Egypt, and countless other places, for decades. They despise the feelings and sacrifices of Muslims with their money and even their lives for the sake of Allah. As if that were not enough, they sometimes describe the initiatives of Muslims as abuse and a crime, and even worse, as illegitimate!
O Muslims! Do not underestimate initiatives such as the Madeleine ship and the current "Global March to Gaza," or the voices of sympathy driven by conscience, launched by non-Muslim activists, politicians, and heads of state! Even their sincere efforts have undoubtedly emerged as a decree from God. In fact, this is only evidence that Allah's victory is near on the path to radical and great change. However, they will only continue as far as their consciences, courage, or themselves can bear.
O Muslims! Whatever you do for Gaza, Palestine, Sudan, East Turkestan, and around the world, every one of your actions, every word you speak against injustice, all your boycotts, all your marches, all your resistance, all your prayers... you owe all of that to your faith in Allah, His Messenger ﷺ, and the Qur'an. Know that any good deed without faith has no value with Allah and does not bear fruit in this world.
O Muslims! Your response to injustice is not the result of your feeling uncomfortable, but because Allah has deemed it injustice. And this is the characteristic that makes you leaders and witnesses over humanity! In fact, you are the ones who revealed the injustice of Gaza to the world, and moved people's minds and hearts! You moved their hearts and minds, so they took to the streets. Now is the time to guide them from small achievements to a great goal... If you guide these conscious people to the right solution for Gaza and Palestine, their march will reach its final solution. But if you too seek small achievements, you will lose all your struggle for liberation and resistance.
Therefore, now more than ever, hold fast to the rope of Allah, and work to lead Gaza, Palestine, all Muslim countries, and all of humanity to the true, great, and lasting solution! Take the scalpel needed to cut off the lifeline of the Jewish entity and the roots that feed it by sucking the blood of the nation. Cut off the treacherous and collaborating rulers who feed the roots of Zionism. The moment those roots are cut, the armies of Muslims will only need a few hours to eradicate the Jewish entity from the blessed land. And the moment it is eradicated, all its branches extending across the world will also wither. Then, life will return to the entire planet; to all people, all living beings, trees, water, air, and even rocks.
So hasten to fulfill your true duty! Work on the method of Prophethood to establish Allah's system and His promise, and the glad tidings of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: the second Rightly Guided Caliphate according to the method of Prophethood. Urgently call on the armies to give the victory they desperately need! So hasten to perform the great duty, to be witnesses and leaders of humanity; a moderate nation. Hizb ut-Tahrir is here to lead you to this victory, and offers you all the plans and methodology, and calls you to join the path of victory. Do not listen to the whispers, but listen to the truth! Do not occupy yourselves with small deeds, but hasten to the greatest goal!
﴿And [you will obtain] another [favor] that you love - victory from Allah and an imminent conquest; and give good tidings to the believers.﴾
