Press Release
The Rulers of Pakistan Continue Their Betrayal of the Ummah by Saving a Defeated America from Certain Defeat in the Iran–US War

On the evening of April 7, the American Pharaoh Donald Trump stated on Truth Social, “Based on discussions with Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, who requested that I halt the devastating operation planned against Iran tonight, and on the condition that the Islamic Republic of Iran agrees to fully, immediately, and safely reopen the Strait of Hormuz, I have agreed to suspend the bombing and attacks against Iran for two weeks.” Prior to this, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif wrote in his tweet, “To allow diplomacy to run its course, I earnestly request President Trump to extend the deadline by two weeks. Pakistan, in all sincerity, requests the Iranian brothers to open the Strait of Hormuz for a corresponding period of two weeks as a goodwill gesture.” Following this, Shehbaz Sharif announced a 15-day ceasefire agreement and invited the leadership of both countries to Islamabad on Friday, April 10, 2026, to negotiate a comprehensive agreement.

This treacherous conduct by the rulers of Pakistan emerged at a time when the initial signs of America’s defeat had begun to appear in the war it, along with its protégé, the Jewish entity, had waged against the land of Imam Muslim and Bukhari. Reuters reported on April 6, 2026, that, “Pakistan’s army chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, has been in contact ‘all night long’ with U.S. Vice President JD Vance, Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi.” Just as the rulers of Pakistan worked to secure a face-saving exit for the United States from Afghanistan, allowing it to appear politically victorious despite its military defeat, they are now playing the same role for the US in the case of Iran, so that America may achieve the victory it failed to secure on the battlefield.

For decades since its establishment, the rulers of Pakistan have consistently served and facilitated the interests of the disbelieving colonialist powers. They have never taken a single step toward the revival of the Ummah or the service of its true interests. In the early 1980s, the rulers of Pakistan utilized the country’s military and human resources, exploiting the people’s faith, Islamic sentiments, and love for Jihad, to support the Western camp led by America in the war between the two superpowers on Afghan soil. This enabled the Muslims of the region to defeat the Soviet Union and paved the way for American influence in Afghanistan.

The rulers of Pakistan continued their collaboration with America within its crusader alliance and in its war against Islam, known as the “War on Terror,” during which America occupied Afghanistan and installed an agent government in Kabul. Even when America withdrew, it did so only after Pakistan’s rulers had ensnared the Taliban in negotiations with Washington, producing an agreement that safeguarded American interests and ensured their continuity in the region, while simultaneously preventing the full implementation of Shariah in Afghanistan.

The agent rulers of Pakistan, like those of Egypt and Turkey, have mobilized to preserve American hegemony and its dominance over the Muslim world. They coordinate their efforts, offer their services to their American master, and present Trump’s imposed initiatives as if they were their own. These rulers have no connection whatsoever to Islam or the Islamic Ummah. Had they possessed any Iman or any drive to defend Islam, they would have risen to defend the sanctities of Allah (swt) being violated in the Blessed Land of Palestine by the criminal Jewish entity. This land lies within the range of Pakistan’s ballistic missiles, armed with nuclear warheads. A single missile from Pakistan would be sufficient to destroy the Jewish entity and liberate the Blessed Land. Where are these rulers and their military honors when the First Qibla and the third of the three sacred mosques in Islam has remained closed for over a month? Where is the drive to uphold the bonds of Iman, neighborliness, and kinship with the descendants of Imam Muslim, Bukhari, and Tirmidhi? These rulers are allies of the disbelievers, protecting and serving them, not the Muslims. Allah (swt) said:

[المُنَافِقُونَ وَالمُنَافِقَاتُ بَعْضُهُم مِّن بَعْضٍ، يَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمُنكَرِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَقْبِضُونَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ، نَسُوا اللَّهَ فَنَسِيَهُمْ، إِنَّ الْمُنَافِقِينَ هُمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ]

“The hypocrites, both men and women, are all alike. They enjoin what is wrong and forbid what is right and withhold their hands. They have forgotten Allah, so He has forgotten them. Indeed, the hypocrites are the defiantly disobedient.” [TMQ Surah At-Tawbah: 67].

O Muslims of Pakistan! O the Sincere within the Pakistan Army!

You are the people of Islam, the people of strength and defense. You are those who defeated the Russians and the British in this region, and you are the ones who can defeat America today. You have already seen that even a single Muslim power is capable of humiliating America in pursuit of its national interests, dismantling its illegitimate offspring, the Jewish entity, and holding the global economy hostage. So what will be the case when a united Muslim قوة strength under the Khilafah (Caliphate) confronts America, controls the world’s most critical maritime passages, and uproots the Jewish entity entirely? When European states, one after another, accept your conditions for oil supply, and sign agreements based on your terms for trade within the Muslim world. The sun of American dominance would set today if you were to remove these agent Muslim rulers, who are America’s true source of strength.

Among you is Hizb ut Tahrir, the حامل carrier of the Khilafah project, capable of uniting all Muslim lands under the banner of the Khilafah and consolidating the Ummah’s armies and resources, until the Ummah becomes the dominant superpower in the world, not just within the Muslim world.
O Muslims, call upon your sons in the mujahid Pakistan Army to grant their military support (nussrah) to Hizb ut Tahrir, so that you may attain the victory you seek in this world and success in the Hereafter. Allah (swt) said:

[يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِن تَنصُرُوا اللَّهَ يَنصُرْكُمْ وَيُثَبِّتْ أَقْدَامَكُمْ]

“O you who have believed, if you support Allah, He will support you and make your foothold firm.” [TMQ Surah Muhammad: 7].
