We Say to the British Daily Mail and its likes... Enough with your Manipulation. Hizb ut Tahrir's Method is Known to All!



The UK-based Daily Mail claimed online, on 24th February that, "The Indian Mujahideen is helping al-Qaeda to run a separate module in India, as part of the home-grown terror outfit's efforts to go global by establishing strong links with radical groups like the Taliban and Hizb ut Tahrir".
The Daily Mail article began with the text quoted above and went on to offer some tenuous discussion points relating to supposed links between 'Indian Muhahideen' and two other groups mentioned: al-Qaeda and Taliban, but strangely, the article did not attempt to offer any semblance of evidence for a link with Hizb ut Tahrir, and did not even mention Hizb ut Tahrir further. It seems that Hizb ut Tahrir's name was used in the beginning of the article as a spice to be sprinkled on top of a sloppy story as a desperate attempt to increase the Daily Mail's own global ambitions of appealing to a wider readership.
While we bear no grudge against the Daily Mail's attempts at widening its readership, we do not accept this to be done at the expense of distorting the public's awareness about Hizb ut Tahrir's avowedly political agenda. Therefore, we hereby re-affirm that Hizb ut Tahrir is an independent, global political party that does not have any links with other groups, except as part of offering advice and guidance to all Muslims of the awareness about the need for political change through peaceful political and intellectual activity.

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 ...

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...

Authenticity of ahadith on tall buildings in Makkah?

Question Are these   ḥadith  sound? Are the references provided correct and accurate? When you see the belly of Makkah will be cleft open and through it will be dug out river-like passages (i.e. tunnels) (or water in the road to Makkah), and you see the buildings surpass its mountains, then take care (or beware, or a variant has: then know that the matter is at hand, or then understand that the time of trial (Judgment day) is near at hand). [Narrated by Al-Azraqi in the Book of reports about Makkah – Kitab Akhbaar Makkah, Hadiyth-1725; A specific Hadiyth (in fact several related-Hadiyths) which prophesizes about this Tower. Itha ra’aitun mecca bu’ijat katha’ima, wa ya-tasawa bunyanuha ru’usa jibaliha, faqad athalati as-Sa’atu. When you see Mecca, its mountain with holes (pierced through them), and its buildings reach its mountain tops, then as-Sa’ah (the Hour) has already cast its shadow. [Suyuti] So when you see in Makkah that channels have already been dug (or tunnels b...
