Press Release

Delegation from Hizb ut Tahrir delivered an Open Letter from Hizb ut Tahrir America to the Tyrant Government of Bangladesh at the Embassy of Bangladesh in Washington DC

On September 11^th, 2015 a delegation from Hizb ut Tahrir delivered an Open Letter from Hizb ut Tahrir America to the Tyrant Government of Bangladesh at the Embassy of Bangladesh in Washington DC. This letter was pertaining to the horrific acts of the arrest and torturing of two women members of Hizb ut Tahrir in Bangladesh. The tyrant Hasina of Bangladesh arrested two woman members of Hizb ut Tahrir in Dhaka, Bangladesh for inviting their acquaintances to participate in an online Islamic conference that Hizb ut Tahrir held on Friday, September 4^th, 2015 titled "Emerging Khilafah "Caliphate"...The Inevitable Transformation of Bangladesh's Politics and Economy".

Having failed to face the men of Hizb ut Tahrir, the tyrant Hasina resorted to such desperate and cowardly acts against sincere Muslim women. Their detainment was then followed by torture in which one of the sisters was severely beaten. The torture in itself was so severe that it left the sister bleeding from various parts of her body and left her unconscious.

We challenge the tyrannical government of Bangladesh! On what threat did these dignified daughters of the Ummah bring in order to be arrested and tortured? These lionesses of Islam were arrested and tortured for winning people over with the words of Allah azza wa jal regarding the obligation of the Khilafah "Caliphate"! Allah (swt) praises those Muslims who invite people to Islam:

((وَمَنْأَحْسَنُقَوْلاًمِّمَّندَعَاإِلَىاللَّهِوَعَمِلَصَالِحاًوَقَالَإِنَّنِيمِنَالْمُسْلِمِينَ))

"And who is better in speech than one who invites to Allah and does righteousness and says, "I am one of the Muslims."" [TMQ Surah Fussilat: 33].

We remind the Ummah that these horrific acts of torture against our sisters are nothing new to the believers, as we remember when Quraish tortured to death Sumayyah (rah) the first martyr of Islam. A woman who stood firm on the truth! The sacrifice of Sumayyah is echoed all over the world right now as our daughters, sisters, mothers are being tortured and killed for their love of Allah (swt) and His Messenger (saw).

We reminded the people of influence that your sisters are being tortured for adhering to the commandments of Allah (swt), and they are being tortured on behalf of Delhi and the West. Where is your honor? Supporting the tyrant Hasina in her open "war against Islam" will bring you the anger of Allah (swt), and the punishment in this life and the next.

The actions of torture by the tyrant Hasina should not come as a surprise. This is the democracy that the U.S. Government promotes to the Muslims world. The actions of torture by an "American Ally" is expected and promoted by the U.S. Government as they help finance and train law enforcement and military in many Muslim countries in their "War Against Islam". The U.S. Government's continuous support of tyrants from Sisi to Hasina demonstrates what America expects these tyrants to do against the believers, from torture to murder. They believe that their evil plots will succeed in preventing the light of Islam to shine, but Allah (swt) says:

((وَإِذْ يَمْكُرُ بِكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لِيُثْبِتُوكَ أَوْ يَقْتُلُوكَ أَوْ يُخْرِجُوكَ وَيَمْكُرُونَ وَيَمْكُرُ اللّهُ وَاللّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِينَ))

"And when plotted against you those who disbelieved that they restrain you or kill you or drive you out. And they were planning and Allah too was planning. And Allah is (the) Best (of) the Planners." [TMQ Surah al-Anfal: 30].
