Alleged Suicide Attack will be Another Pretext for the Regime to Further Repress the Ideological Islamists




Press Release

On 17/03/2017, a suicide bomber reportedly blew himself up in a suicide bombing near a temporary barrack of police’s elite force Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) in Ashkona area of Dhaka. The attack took place a day after police conducted a raid in Chittagong's Sitakunda area where two persons, who were said to be members of home grown militant organization by the police, blew themselves up to evade arrest. As usual, we now see disputes over the presence of the self-styled ‘Islamic State (IS)’ group which officially took credit of the attack on Friday, whereas Bangladesh Police has denied IS’s involvement in this attack and rather put finger on home grown militants.
Whatever the case, against the backdrop of this attack and the on-going dispute over the existence of IS, what is abundantly evident is that the ‘thorny issue’ for this government that has captured headlines of all the news channels for last few days, that is, Hasina’s upcoming visit to India to sign few controversial subservient military deals, has all but disappeared from the mainstream news media. Apart from this tactic of evasion and diversion, this tyrant regime will be adamant to advance its own evil agenda i.e. suppressing the work for establishing Islamic rule (Khilafah/Caliphate) in the country. An atmosphere of fear is already being created after the Friday attack where people are being harassed and panicked by police in broad daylight in the name of checking and searching. The government wants the people to be more frightened to talk about Islamic political solutions publicly and engage with the Islamic activists. Also the anti-Islamic Hasina government will do its best to further paralyze the Islamic political parties by having them more compliant to the current status-quo as well as to repress its real political opposition, the ideological activists of Hizb ut Tahrir in the name of combating terrorism.

An advice to Muslims working in the financial sector

Assalam wa alaikum wa rahmatullah wabarakatahu, Dear Brothers & Sisters, We are saddened to see Muslims today even those who practise many of the rules of Islam are working in jobs which involve haram in the financial sector. They are working in positions which involve usurious (Riba) transactions, insurance, the stock market and the like. Even though many of the clear evidences regarding the severity of the sin of Riba are known, some have justified their job to themselves thinking that they are safe as long as they are not engaged in the actual action of taking or giving Riba. Brothers & Sisters, You should know that the majority of jobs in the financial sector, even the IT jobs in this area are haram (prohibited) as they involve the processing of prohibited contracts. If you work in this sector, do not justify your job to yourself because of the fear of losing your position or having to change your career, fear Allah as he should be feared and consider His law regard

Q&A: Age of separating children in the beds?

Question: Please explain the hukm regarding separation of children in their beds. At what age is separation an obligation upon the parents? Also can a parent sleep in the same bed as their child? Answer: 1- With regards to separating children in their beds, it is clear that the separation which is obligatory is when they reach the age of 7 and not since their birth. This is due to the hadith reported by Daarqutni and al-Hakim from the Messenger (saw) who said: When your children reach the age of 7 then separate their beds and when they reach 10 beat them if they do not pray their salah.’ This is also due to what has been narrated by al-Bazzar on the authority of Abi Rafi’ with the following wording: ‘We found in a sheet near the Messenger of Allah (saw) when he died on which the following was written: Separate the beds of the slave boys and girls and brothers and sisters of 7 years of age.’ The two hadiths are texts on the separation of children when they reach the age of 7. As for the

Please refer to the original Arabic for exact meanings. Question: What is the Shari’ ruling in singing or listening to songs?  What is the hukm of using musical instruments and is its trade allowed? I request you to answer in detail with the evidences?
