The Regime in Jordan and its Secular Mouthpieces are Exploiting the Criminal Assault against the City of Karak to Attack Islam and in Attempt to Disparage it
(Translated)

The general masses of the Muslims and their ’Ulamaa’, whether they are politicians or not, know full well, that the criminal assault which led to the death of a number of military personnel and civilians (May Allah’s mercy be upon them) in the city of Karak, has absolutely no relation to Islam and has no connection to the Ahkam Ash-Shar’iyah in Islam. That is because the Ummah knows the inviolability of the blood of the Muslim:

«كُلُّ الْمُسْلِمِ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِ حَرَامٌ دَمُهُ وَعِرْضُهُ وَمَالُهُ» “Every Muslim in respect to the Muslim is Haraam (inviolable), his blood, his honour and his wealth.”

Indeed, the Ummah regards her sons from the military to be in the place of giving support to this Deen and the object of hopes for her to restore her authority. The Muslims in Jordan, not only reject these criminal acts and condemn them, but have shown their readiness to confront these acts and those undertaking them by themselves at a time when their emotions are being enflamed due to what the sons of their Ummah are being exposed to in terms of slaughter in the city of Halab and Ash-Shaam in general and their anger is being fuelled by the disgraceful incompetence of the regimes in the Muslim lands in respect to providing support to the people of Halab and stopping the massacres against them.

Despite that, the regime in Jordan is enabling the secular mouthpieces and the people who have agendas to attack Islam. They enable through political platforms, media avenues and employment and political positions. They are exploiting the criminal assault upon the city of Karak to disparage Islam and its thoughts. They attack it within malicious colonialist crusader agendas against Islam and the Muslims, believing that the Muslim Jordanian people will accept their black thoughts and pass through the educational curriculum change over their children, the students, and that the Jumu’ah Khutbah in the Masaajid will become a biased weekly government statement. This on the back of the size of the pain and grief that the sinful assault caused upon the city of Karak and which the regime in Jordan bears the greatest responsibility for. That is due to what the regime, its ministries, institutions, administrative organs, programmes and plans contain in terms of deep-rooted intellectual, professional and administrative corruption which even the security services are not safe from. And it is due to their pursuance of those who call to the truth and the good, the sincere, pious and pure, the people of the enlightened Islamic thought, and arresting them and throwing them into prisons. And due to the continuous and systematic war against the enlightened Islamic thought that will revive the Ummah with a true revival that restores her Izzah (honour and might) and which will protect the Ummah and its sons from the effects and influence of the deviant and transgressive thought, and from the naivety that dissolves the thoughts of Islam, which are no less dangerous upon the Ummah and the soundness of its thoughts, and from the secular atheistic thought that provokes the Muslims at every moment, every instant without a monitor or someone to account.

So O Muslims in every place in Jordan and in every employment position, be trusted guards over Islam, its thoughts and rulings standing against those who take and exploit every opportunity provided to them to disparage Islam and attack it. And O those who work in the media, the time has come for you to side completely with Islam and to apply pressure upon the administrations of the media outlets to close the avenues to the enemies of Islam and open them to the sincere sons of the Ummah. And do not allow your media outlets to become a partner in targeting Islam by your silence over them whilst they open their platforms to the enemies of Islam and the Muslims.
