﴿إِنَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ
رَاجِعونَ﴾
“To
Allah We belong, and to Him is our return” [al-Baqarah: 156]
Cengiz
Karakuş was one of Hizb ut Tahrir's honorable Shabab who worked earnestly and
courageously in order to revive Islamic society and in order to re-establish
the rule of Allah's Deen on earth. Our brother Cengiz who met with Hizb ut Tahrir
25 years ago, never stopped being loyal to Hizb ut Tahrir ever since. Our
brother Cengiz possessed a courage that could fearlessly declare the truth
before a tyrant. He kept his promise to his Lord and demonstrated his loyalty
to Islam until his last breath. He was arrested 7 times and was jailed for
years because he upheld the Dawah of Islam. He never bowed before the courts
when he was tried for his membership to Hizb ut Tahrir and always said the Haq
(truth).
Our
brother Cengiz would talk with everyone in the Erzurum province where he lived,
in order to liberate them of the capitalist system's filth and would call upon his
neighbours, relatives and all Muslims to righteousness and the Haq. He was
known as a member of Hizb ut Tahrir to all. Our brother Cengiz, father of 6,
was murdered by vile capitalist
people who could not stand his righteousness.
We as Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah Turkey, ask
Allah for Rahmah (mercy) to the deceased; Sabr-i Cemeel (good patience) and
condolences for the family.
O Brother! May our Merciful Lord
show you mercy! May He place you in His Heaven, rivers flowing underneath.
According to the hadith «مَنْ
خَلَعَ يَدًا مِنْ طَاعَةٍ لَقِىَ اللَّهَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَلاَ حُجَّةَ لَهُ
وَمَنْ مَاتَ وَلَيْسَ فِى عُنُقِهِ بَيْعَةٌ
مَاتَ مِيتَةً جَاهِلِيَّةً» “Whoever
dies without giving allegiance (bay'ah) and removing himself from obedience to
the Imam will die the death of jahiliyya.” Even
though you could not give bay'ah to a Khalif, may Allah accept your good work
for the establishment of a Khalif in order to give your bay'ah. We have
witnessed what sacrifices you made for the Dawah of Islam and the courageous
activities for the re-establishment of the Khilafah (Caliphate) upon the method
of the Prophethood. InshaAllah you will be one the winners and heralded through
your activities.
﴿مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ رِجَالٌ صَدَقُوا
مَا عَاهَدُوا اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِ فَمِنْهُم مَّن قَضَى نَحْبَهُ وَمِنْهُم مَّن
يَنتَظِرُ وَمَا بَدَّلُوا تَبْدِيلًا﴾
“Among the believers are men true to what they promised
Allah. Among them is he who has fulfilled his vow [to the death], and among
them is he who awaits [his chance]. And they did not alter [the terms of their
commitment] by any alteration.” [al-Ahzab 23]
