The scenes that we’re seeing these days have made the heart shatter into a million pieces.

How does one even respond? By Allāh, I’ve been trying to write this for over a day now but I’m at a complete loss of words. But I cannot be silent more than this, may Allāh forgive me.

I wonder, where are those who were very recently downplaying the kufr of the Rāfidah and Nusayriyyah now? Where are those who opened their filthy mouths blabbering about the supposed “permissibility” of alliance with those… what word do I even use to describe them?

ألا قاتلهم الله أنى يؤفكون

Where’d they go? I can’t hear them, can you?

They can’t open their mouths now, they’re doing taqiyyah it seems.

The bleeding wound of Ash-Shām has been opened once more and it will not stop bleeding until the rest of our brothers and our sisters are freed and safe, and until the life of every single Muslim who was murdered is retaliated for.

Or are we supposed to wait until another life, more sacred than the Ka’bah, is taken, or until we see another mutilated face of a Muslim, someone who witnessed that Lā ilāha illa Allāh?!

You know what I genuinely cannot comprehend? One of those filthy liars when recently discussing the matter of the recent destruction of the leader of the Rāfidah, said something along the lines of, “We understand the rage of the people of Ash-Shām and their rejoice at the death of this individual, but this is extreme and we cannot declare takfīr upon these people because blah blah blah blah blah…” may Allāh paralyze him. As if we have not seen enough dead and mutilated bodies of the Muslims of Syria before???

لا حول ولا قوة إلا بالله

Allahu Akbar! Walhamdulillahil lathee bi ni'matihi tatimmus saalihaat!

Every Muslim feels immense joy upon the overthrow of any Tāghūt, even if the change is led by another Tāghūt.

Ibn Kathīr stated that Allah deals with the oppressors by allowing some to dominate others, bringing about the destruction of some through others, and taking vengeance upon them through each other, as recompense for their injustice and transgressions.

This joy is particularly pronounced when witnessing the release of innocent Muslim prisoners, especially our sisters, and the restoration of rights to individuals, including their homes, lands, and cities. However, our deepest joy is found only when the pure Sharī’ah of Allah is fully implemented across the territories.

The retreat of the enemy from a town and the fall of its Tāghūt is not considered a Shar’ī “liberation” until the country is governed by the Laws of Allah and the secular laws that have hindered the implementation of these Divine Laws are eliminated.

Replacing a rusted Tāghūt with a polished Tāghūt who doesn't implement the pure Sharī’ah of Allah cannot be considered “liberation” or “freedom”. Rather, it's merely a repetition of oppression and a reproduction of Tughyān.

Liberating territories in the name of "freedom" may lead to some vanishing worldly benefits, whereas liberating lands to establish Sharī’ah is the goal that will grant one a Jannah more expansive than both heaven and earth.

Today, we express our gratitude to Allah for allowing us to witness the decline of one of the most prominent oppressors of our time. We pray that Allah fills our hearts with joy as we observe the demise of the remaining tyrants, enabling us to live under the shade of Tawheed in those areas, under the governance of the pure righteous Muwahideen.

O Allāh, we ask You for your Mercy and Help for the weak among the Believers.

O Allāh, deal with the transgressors and the opresssors. O Allāh, unleash Your soldiers upon them and send down upon them Your Might.

O Allāh, the affliction has persisted long over the people of Gaza. O Allāh, do not leave them to themselves or their enemies, have mercy on them, lift the hardship from them, take care of their affairs, heal their sick and wounded, and accept their martyrs.

O Rahmān, who can show them mercy besides You?

Keep them and all of the weak Believers in your ad’iyah tonight.

حسبنا الله ونعم الوكيل

**May you be in good in every year, may Allāh bless you all and accept all of your good deeds,

عيدكم مبارك!**

Some rulings related to Dhul-Hijjah, sacrifices, and ‘Arafah below:

t.me/muslim_alqahtani_EN/67

A message to one who is afflicted with a trial:
“Some pains in life cannot be alleviated by the warmth of some people, nor by their eloquence in comforting us.

For some pains were created to bring us closer to Allāh, created so we may prostrate and draw near to Him جل وعلا, created to inform us that within the heart, there are fragments that no one has the power to mend except Allāh, to whisper in our pains with the voice of certainty: ‘No one possesses the comfort but Allāh.’

He takes care of your affairs while everything around you is filled with misfortune, and when all hands around you disappear…
We only need to mend our relationship with Allāh, so that life may blossom into a spring of happiness for us.

O Allāh, draw us nearer to You, for whoever chooses Your closeness has never been let down.
As you read the Qur’ān, search for yourself. After every āyah, you will find what addresses and means you, you will find what benefits and encompasses you, you will find a cure that heals you.”

A story (The night prayer?)

“When night falls, there is nothing sweeter than conversing with Allah, experiencing His comfort, generosity, and responsiveness. I became addicted to performing two rak’ahs every night, reciting Surah Al-Fatihah and Surah Al-Ikhlas, even before I fully understood what night prayer (Qiyam al-Layl) was. I would ask Allah with all my being, thinking only of Him, crying before Him, and praying to Him. I swear by Allah, my whole life was filled with light, both internally and externally, and I would eagerly anticipate nightfall the next day so I could pray.

My requests were answered. In short, if Allah loves you, He will draw you to Him in the simplest ways. If He wants something for you, He will show you all the paths, even if you are blind. Do not underestimate the power of two rak’ahs at night for the sake of Allah. And my everlasting advice; keep your affairs secret.”

Those are the people of bid’ah (innovation) and deviance, those who call against the Sunnah of the Messenger ﷺ, those who obstruct the path of Allāh and distort it— they turn the bid’ah into a sunnah, and the sunnah into a bid’ah, and the good into evil, and the evil into good.

If you try to instil Tawhīd within them, they say: “You have belittled the Awliyā and the righteous!” And if you try to instil following the Messenger ﷺ, they say: “You have belittled the followed imāms!” And if you attribute to Allāh what He has attributed to Himself, and what His Prophet has attributed to Him, without excess or deficiency, they say: “You are comparing Allāh to His creation!” And If you order with that which Allāh and His Messenger ordered of good, and forbid what Allāh and His Messenger have forbidden of evil, they say: “You are a troublemaker!” And if you follow the Sunnah and abandon what opposes it, they say: “You are among the people of bid’ah and a misguider!” If you detach yourself from world attachments and devote yourself to Allāh, they say: “You are too devoted!” And if you leave what you are upon, and submit to their desires, then with Allāh, you are a loser, and with them, you are a hypocrite.

Therefore, firmness lies in seeking the pleasure of Allāh and His Messenger, even if it leads to their displeasure. Do not preoccupy yourself with their approval or disapproval, their praise or disdain, for it is the essence of your perfection, as Al-Mutanabbi said:

“If a criticism comes to you from an inferior, it is a testimony that one is perfect."
