Gaza and the Awakening of the Nation
Sacrifice is Evidence of Truth
The last two years have been enough to engrave Gaza in the conscience of the nation as the bleeding heart of Islam that has not been broken. Two years of annihilation, hunger, and destruction have shown that bombs may destroy homes, but they do not defeat the will of a believing nation. The occupiers sought to annihilate the people of Gaza, but they became mountains; they tried to extinguish their light, but they became a flame; they tried to starve their bodies, but they could not take away their faith.
Gaza has revealed the bankruptcy of the so-called "civilized world," whose slogans of human rights evaporated under the weight of its collusion, and it has revealed the treachery of Muslim rulers and the silence of many scholars who direct the nation towards false solutions.
Although Gaza is not the only bleeding wound, it is a reminder that the nation is one body that bleeds in Sudan, Syria, Kashmir, Rohingya camps, Xinjiang (East Turkestan), and other Muslim countries.
The blood of Gaza has become more than a tragedy; it is a testimony, it is the inevitable price of reviving the role of Islam in the world; martyrdom, hunger, and sadness are not accidental results, but rather a crucible in which pride and victory are formed.
Allah Almighty reminds us with His saying: ﴿Do you think that you will enter Paradise without Allah knowing those of you who strive hard (in His Cause) and knowing those who are patient?﴾ [Aal Imran: 142].
The steadfastness of the people of Gaza has become a divine message to Muslims in the West: we cannot remain passive observers; our responsibility is not to retreat and carry out activity according to comfort and only as time permits, but rather to mobilize to confront the forces of injustice and tyranny, for the struggle is not the struggle of the people of Gaza alone, but also our struggle.
The Mirage of the Two-State Solution and the Negotiated Peace
In exchange for the sacrifices of the people of Gaza, another arena of conflict extends in the field of politics. The two-state solution reveals how Washington has carefully prepared the Palestinian file since 1959 to be a controlled project: preserving a Zionist entity while appeasing Muslims with promises of a "Palestinian state." From Camp David to Oslo, from the Abraham Accords to the proposals of Biden and Trump, the essence has not changed; the Palestinians are offered a false autonomy without sovereignty, a police force without an army, and a flag without real power.
Whether the Republicans or the Democrats come, the policy remains constant: securing the occupation, appeasing the Muslims, and occupying the nation with endless negotiations. Herein lies the essence of the illusion: every time the nation tries to rise, a new "solution" appears, such as Oslo, roadmaps, peace talks, and Trump's twenty-point plan, all promises of solutions, but they lead to paralysis. Illusions have become a way to mislead and anesthetize the nation to accept "their peace" as an inevitable fate.
Gaza has taught us that tanks are not stopped by petitions and denunciations, nor are bombs stopped by United Nations resolutions, and that will alone does not liberate. The Islamic nation has enormous resources; from two billion Muslims, and vast wealth, to powerful armies. What restricts us is not inability or weakness, but rather betrayal by the rulers at the highest peak. Liberating the steadfast and stationed nation requires practical means through military intervention, and removing the remnants of Western colonialism and its agents from the rulers.
Change begins with fundamental clarity: rejecting illusions, exposing false leaders, and recognizing the Caliphate - an obligation from Allah Almighty - as the only system capable of uniting and mobilizing the nation. Historically, for example, Jerusalem was under Islamic rule, a haven where Muslims and Christians lived safely for centuries. Today, under secular colonial regimes, Jerusalem has become a center and landmark for bloodshed.
A Call That Must Be Answered
Muslims in America must first be aware of: America's role in perpetuating injustice and oppression in Muslim countries. Both Trump and Biden openly give allegiance to Zionism, and provide the occupation with weapons and money, while suppressing opposition to the war at home. Secondly: that political activity is not limited to pressure, appeals, supplication, and charity alone. And thirdly: that the solution is not the "two-state solution" nor any "peace plan" proposed by the West.
Instead, the duty is to deepen our fundamental clarity, organize within our communities, and link the pain of Gaza to the broader project of reviving the system of Islam for justice. Our political activity must focus on calling on the armies of Muslims to intervene to liberate Gaza. At the same time, we must call for the removal of Muslim rulers and the establishment of the Caliphate on the Prophetic methodology in Muslim countries. Our lectures, speeches, and conversations must confront the illusions that restrict us, and focus on the solution above.
Gaza is a mirror of the nation, its ruins reflect our weakness, but its steadfastness also reveals our potential. Its orphans condemn our rulers and awaken our conscience. And its steadfastness proves that even in the face of hunger and siege, faith cannot be defeated.
The price is high, but the reward is higher and greater. The destiny of the nation is not "managed negotiations" or "feeble autonomy," but rather its destiny is to rise once again under sincere leadership, to carry the justice of Islam to humanity, and to liberate Al-Aqsa Mosque as part of the divine trust given to it. The blood of Gaza and the strength of faith all point to one conclusion: the optimal path is to revive the Caliphate on the Prophetic methodology, and the time to commit is now.
﴿O you who have believed, respond to Allah and to the Messenger when he calls you to that which gives you life.﴾
