Oil resources are the right of the people and not a monopoly of one group over another
News:
Baghdad Today Agency reported on 2025/9/22 a news item entitled: "The tripartite agreement dispels the darkness of the cut-off...", in which it stated:
A source in the North Oil Company in Kirkuk Governorate stated, on Monday, September 22, 2025, that the company is fully prepared to resume exporting Kurdistan Region oil within one hour of receiving official instructions.
The source told the Kurdish media that the tripartite agreement between the region, the federal government, and the oil companies has been officially signed, confirming that the company is waiting for an official letter to start the export process.
Comment:
Allah Almighty has made oil a public resource for all the people. It is one of the public properties that the Khilafah State takes charge of. It should not be subject to one group over another, but rather it is a right of the people, the benefit of which reaches all individuals of the people under the shadow of the State, which does not differentiate between Arabs and non-Arabs, nor between Muslims and Dhimmis. Everyone has a right to these public properties.
From a man among the Companions, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: I went on a raid with the Prophet ﷺ and I heard him say: "People are partners in three things: pasture, water, and fire"; narrated by Ahmad and Abu Dawood, and its men are trustworthy. And from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Three things should not be withheld: water, pasture, and fire" narrated by Ibn Majah.
Fire includes everything that is used for lighting, and oil is considered one of the things that is used for lighting, and therefore it is public property, and it is forbidden to seize it by one group without the other groups, and it is also forbidden for private companies to extract it to own it without the people.
One of the plagues that prevails today is that the Islamic nation has been divided into scattered statelets controlled by Western countries with their greedy capitalist system, which creates crises in the heart of Muslim countries to tear apart the torn and increase the diaspora of Muslims, and their existence in this state is forbidden, and everyone who accepts these prohibitions is sinful.
The existence of crises between Muslims in Iraq is an artificial existence so that Muslims remain scattered and divided...
The basis of the agreement should be between Muslims to remove the American occupier from Iraq, not for separate parties to be formed to agree on what Bremer, the representative of America in Iraq, brought in 2003 to put Muslims in a crisis of division and the tribulation of diaspora that weakens their strength. The basis of the nation is to hold fast to the rope of Allah, not to the rope of America, which has shackled the minds of its sons with the shackles of division and fragmentation. Allah Almighty said: ﴿And hold fast to the rope of Allah all together and do not become divided. And remember the favor of Allah upon you when you were enemies and He brought your hearts together and you became, by His favor, brothers. And you were on the edge of a pit of the Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus does Allah make clear to you His verses that you may be guided.﴾.
This agreement concluded between what is called the Kurdistan Region, the Baghdad government, and the North Oil Company is legally void because it perpetuates what the enemy of God brought; the American occupation.
Muslims in Iraq must adhere to the Sharia of Allah so that tranquility and happiness prevail in this world by applying the Sharia of Allah, desiring guidance and righteousness under the rule of the Lord of the Worlds.
