UK demonstration demands Muslim armies liberate Palestine

20th July 2014: As attacks on Gaza continue, Hizb ut-Tahrir in Britain organised a demonstration at the Egyptian embassy attended by thousands from across the UK.  Muslim armies in the region must move to defend people in Palestine.  Muslim rulers silence gives green light to 'Israelis' to attack Gaza.  Re-establishment of the Khilafah (Caliphate) is the way to liberate Palestine once and for all.

Islam: the Caliphate debate - Interview with Reza Pankhurst

Islam: the Caliphate debate - Interview with Reza Pankhurst Mahan Abedin - Religioscope 29 Jul 2014 Following its lightening offensive in northern Iraq in early June, resulting in the capture of Iraq's second city Mosul, the group styling itself as the “Islamic State” declared the establishment of a Caliphate in areas it controls in Iraq and Syria. Despite the unpopularity of the group, and the near-universal dismissal of their declaration as empty and bogus, the nominal re-establishment of the Caliphate after a century-long hiatus has touched off a flurry of intense media interest on the subject.   To gain an in-depth understanding on the circumstances surrounding the “Islamic State's” declaration of a Caliphate and the extent to which the declaration can be considered as valid and legitimate, Religioscope talks to Dr Reza Pankhurst, a leading scholar on the Caliphate and a well-known Islamic ideologue. Reza Pankhurst is an academic and author.  His

Gaza Attack: All Muslim Armies Carry the Responsibility to Wage Jihad against the Jewish entity

News: The carnage that we are witnessing in Gaza continues. The blood of the martyrs that is spilled on the blessed land by the enemy of Allah keeps flowing without defence and the deafening silence of the Muslim leaders on this issue makes our blood boil with anger. Where are our armies? Why are Muslim armies sitting in their barracks when they should be protecting our brothers and sisters in Gaza? This unacceptable state of affairs has pushed Hizb Ut Tahrir / Malaysia to organize several demonstrations in front of the Egyptian Embassy, the Turkish embassy and the office of the Malaysian Armed Forces on Friday 18 July 2014. These memoranda were aimed to serve as a reminder of their responsibilities to protect the Muslims in Gaza as well as to free the blessed land of Palestine from the Jewish occupation and barbarism. Comment: Despite the fact that Egypt borders Gaza and Turkey has been very vocal against the Jewish entity of Israel, there has been no real effort exerted f

A message from a female slave of Allah (swt) in Gaza to the glorious Ummah

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم A message from a female slave of Allah (swt) in Gaza to the glorious Ummah I begin by praising my Lord in a manner that befits the Majesty and Greatness of His power, My Lord (swt), I am a slave woman who is in need of you, I supplicate with the words of your Prophet, the best of creation. There is no Nasser (Helper) except You and I am not needy of anyone but You. "O Allah! Unto You do I complain of my weakness, of my helplessness and of my lowliness before men. O most Merciful of the merciful. O Lord of the weak and my Lord too. Into whose hands have you entrusted me? Unto some far off stranger who receives me with hostility? Or unto a foe whom you have empowered against me? I care not, so long as You are not angry with me. But Your favouring help, that were for me the broader way and the wider scope. I take refuge in the light of Your Countenance whereby all darkness is illuminated and all things of this world and the next are rightly ordered, le

Turkey speaks out against Israel over Gaza: A toothless roar we keep hearing over and over

Since Friday 18th July 2014, the world was awakened by strong condemnation from top Turkey's leadership of indiscriminate violence perpetrated by the illegal Zionist entity against the people of Gaza. Military offensive into Gaza by the Zionist defence forces comprising of aerial bombardments as well as ground operations have caused countless civilian death including defenceless women and children. This yet another series war crime by the Zionist has sparked numerous protests around the world and Turkey's response shows it do not want to be outperform in this yet another game of condemnation. Daily Sabah reported on Friday, Turkish President Abdullah Gül has warned Israel of "consequences" if it does not stop its attacks on Gaza's civilian population. In similar tone, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan lashed out at Israel labelling it as terrorizing and carrying out genocide in Gaza. He also has not spared United Nation out when accusing the later of &quo

After the Targeting of women and children in Gaza will you now move?!

News pours in daily about the fall of numerous defenseless civilians, especially women and children in Gaza as a result of the fierce 'Israeli' attack on Gaza continuing for more than two weeks, which they named Operation Protective Edge. The number of victims of the aggression as of dawn, Wednesday, 24/07/2014 reached 640 martyrs and 4030 wounded, which included hundreds of women and children, and the number is expected to increase, yet no one has moved a muscle... The inaction of the Muslim and Arab world rulers reached its peak; those hideous massacres and scenes of killing, destruction, burning and deformation did not stir an atom in their feelings or hearts. And their ears did not hear the screams, moans and cries from the mouths of children and women. The targeting of women and children in this war on Gaza is obvious. They kill them everywhere; in their homes, streets, schools, hospitals, and even on the beach. They are killed as they eat, as they sleep and as they

Q&A: The Legislative (Shari') Method of Establishing the Khilafah and the Dominant Sultan

Question: There are some comments on some websites that state:  "That Hizb ut Tahrir has defined the method of seeking the Nussrah (material support) to establish the Khilafah, while it abides to, and does not acknowledge any other Legislative (Shari') method... although there is another method, which is "the method of the dominant Sultan", i.e. the one who establishes the state by force and fighting... they also said that Hizb ut Tahrir objected Baghdadi's declaration out of Hizbi prejudice, as the Hizb does not acknowledge the Khilafah as a legitimate one except if it established it..."  Can you please provide a conclusive and sufficient answer for these statements? May Allah reward you. Answer: 1. Hizb ut Tahrir did not outline the Sharí method of establishing the Khilafah, but it is the Shariah itself that outlined it, and the Seerah of Rasoolullah صلى الله عليه وسلم speaks of this since the beginning of the Da'wah to Islam, and until the
