Answer Trump in His Language:
Close US Embassy, Consulates and Bases!

By: Musab Umair – Pakistan

A meeting of the high-level military and political leadership took place at the PM House on 24 August 2017 under the chairmanship of the Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi to devise a "detailed reply" to US President, Donald Trump's, accusation of Pakistan being a "safe haven" for terrorists. Interior Minister, Ahsan Iqbal, Foreign Minister, Khawaja Asif, Chairman Joint Chief of Staff Committee, Zubair Hayat, Army Chief General, Qamar Javed Bajwa, Air Chief ACM, Sohail Aman, and Naval Chief Admiral, Muhammad Zakaullah, are among those in attendance.

More words, statements and rebuttals when actions involving fire and steel are the need of the time! Such meetings are desperate attempts at face saving before the Ummah that is wide awake to its reality and its needs. It is also an attempt to quell the growing frustration within the armed forces itself. Why must Muslims settle for a weak leadership responding to Trump's agenda when the sincere Islamic leadership can set an agenda for the world's thug that undeservedly claims the right of policing the world?!

It is upon the leadership of Muslims to announce immediate withdrawal from America's crusade, to defiantly expel the US ambassador and to round up the American CIA, FBI and private military that have launched a campaign of blasts and assassinations to prod our capable armed forces into the tribal areas to fight America's war for it. That's just the start of what is required. The embassy and consulates must be sealed as well as the “Raymond Davis” private military bases that infest our cities and even our sensitive military cantonment areas. Our intelligence must reject any orders to force the Afghan Taliban to be ensnared in the maze of negotiations to legitimize the US military footprint and they must, instead, fully mobilize them in their love for Jihad and martyrdom. Our armed forces must stand at the Durand Line to shoot down any fleeing US troops and observe as the US occupation is torn asunder by the ferocious Afghan Muslims as the Soviet Russians and Imperialist British before them.

As for Trump's attempts to raise India as the dominant regional power to counter China and the movement for the re-establishment of the Khilafah (Caliphate) on the Method of the Prophethood, Pakistan's armed forces must issue a call to the sincere of the mujahideen in Kashmir to continue in their bold defiance of the Hindu State's occupying forces. And having deployed Pakistan's nuclear assets in a formation to display deterrent capabilities, Pakistan's armed forces must themselves undertake liberation operations, reviving the good memories of 1999 when the spirit of Jihad, martyrdom and victory was awakened such that control of Kargil Heights was achieved, enemy supply lines cut and the liberation of Occupied Kashmir was within sight. However, this time, rather than bowing to the US and ordering a disastrous withdrawal, within which most of the casualties occurred previously, the sincere leadership will secure a victory. This itself will strike fear in India and trigger its fragmentation, for its Hindu leadership's bigoted oppression has alienated many peoples within its territories.

Thus, the leading nation's interests within the region will be directly challenged and obliterated. And for the creative Islamic leadership, even that is just the start, it knows well that Islam mandates the dominance of the Ummah's enemies and forces their retreat to their own homelands with the Muslims in pursuit, rather than subservience and submission before them.

What separates the Muslims from resounding victory over their enemies is being led by an Imaam who will unify the entire Ummah on one platform as the most resourceful state in the world. Then and only then will they be led by an Imaam whose foremost priority will be to forge the Ummah into the leading state that will determine the international scenario for the sake of making Islam the dominant way of life. Then and only then will they be led by a righteous Imaam to liberate the Muslim Lands from occupation in a glorious Jihad, whether it was Kashmir, Afghanistan, Palestine or Iraq.

Thus, it is upon the officers of the armed forces to grant the Nussrah to Hizb ut Tahrir for the immediate re-establishment of the Khilafah on the Method of the Prophethood. Nothing less will revive the role of the Muslim armies, which is to liberate humankind from the oppression of man-made law. Then and only then will our armed forces achieve the most precious of all things above all of the worldly possessions and pleasures that are to be found in this temporary and fleeting life; the reward and pleasure of Allah (swt) for their fire, steel and souls are in His Way. RasulAllah (saw) said, «مَا أَحَدٌ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ يُحِبُّ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ إِلَى الدُّنْيَا وَلَهُ مَا عَلَى الأَرْضِ مِنْ شَىْءٍ، إِلاَّ الشَّهِيدُ، يَتَمَنَّى أَنْ يَرْجِعَ إِلَى الدُّنْيَا فَيُقْتَلَ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ، لِمَا يَرَى مِنَ الْكَرَامَةِ»“Nobody who enters Paradise likes to go back to the world even if he got everything on the earth, except a Mujahid who wishes to return to the world so that he may be martyred ten times because of the dignity he receives (from Allah).” [Bukhari]
