When The Storm Impedes The Way Of Jihad

Ramadan 22, 1432 A.H, Tuesday, August 23, 2011

Forum Islam Al-Busyro is again presenting the Serial Analisa Bulanan II (Monthly Serial Analysis II). The Monthly Serial Analysis II is entitled “When The Storm Impedes The Way Of Jihad (transl.)”, written by Akhi Jaizy_554, dated June 2011/Rajab 1432 H. The following are the full contents.

Today we are seeing how intent the Thaghut Apparatuses are in pursuing and arresting the Ikhwan Mujahideen in this country (Indonesia -ed.), as if the Mujahideen today have become the bullied by the Thaghut Apparatuses, looking helpless against the invasions of the makar (plots) of the Thaghut Forces. Post-the Aceh I’dad event, hundreds of Mujahideen have been arrested, where some of them have achieved shaheed -insha Allah kama nahsabuhu-, what's obvious is that, there are many of them. And those Mujahideen leave behind their children and wives, as well as their families.

The Thaghut Apparatuses are assisted by the secular mass media which attempts to provide some kind of a 'shock therapy' for the Ikhwan Mujahideen and wish to impose a severe hardship on the Muslimeen Muwahhid people. The aim is for Jihad (which according to them is terrorism/resistance) to stop. Because indeed, they are beginning to feel tired in confronting the Mujahideen who drain much of their resources, especially that their employer, America and Co. is also facing defeats everywhere. Another trick they are playing is the Deradicalization, which aims at putting off the growing spirit of Jihad.

But there is one thing that is not understood by those enemies of Allah, i.e. the Mujahideen whom they called Terrorists are the people who have iman, whose strength rests directly on Allah and who are very sure of His promise. No matter what, the enemies of Allah can never completely extinguish the flame of Jihad. Now, this is our duty and obligation, to keep the flame of Jihad continues blazing and getting bigger. So what should we do now amidst the crush of the heavy test that comes from Allah, in the form of large scale arrests and killing carried out by the Thaghut… where hundreds of their family members are living in distress…???

There is no other word except, DEAL WITH IT PATIENTLY AND WISELY. Patient in making the steps and clever in strategy. When we realize that there are intel (spies) all around us, then don't let that make us stop in practicing the deeds, do not fear the intel -fear Allah alone-, but let's face it and learn to remain practicing the deeds even though there are intels around us. It will make us get used to creating an alibi which certainly can train our creativity and courage. They (the enemies of Allah) will always try to obstruct us from the path of Allah, it has become their nature. We must always remember that, so that we will always be alert and cautious. If they see us become weak for being monitored/spied on by them, they would feel victorious. And on the other hand, if we remain istiqomah in practicing the deeds despite being monitored in such a way –even the activities in the cyberworld are being monitored by them- that is already a form of victory for us against their plots.

Indeed, their plots are weak if we are istiqomah in confronting them, not escaping or retreating from them. Remember that the deceptions (makar) of Satan and its accomplices are weak. Allah Ta’ala says:

الَّذِيْنَ آمَنُوْا يُقَاتِلُوْنَ فِى سَبِيْلِ اللهِ وَالَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا يُقَاتِلُوْنَ فِى سَبِيْلِ الطَّاغُوْتِ فَقَاتِلُوْا أَوْلِيَآءَ الشَّيْطَانِ إِنَّ كَيْدَ الشَّيْطَانِ كَانَ ضَعِيْفًا

“Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah , and those who disbelieve fight in the cause of Thaghut. So fight against the allies of Satan. Indeed, the plot of Satan has ever been weak.” (QS. An Nisa : 76)

The above verse tells us that the deception of Satan and its accomplices are (and will remain) weak if we (want to) fight them. Always remember this verse O mujahid…!!! They are weak if we fight them… If we retreat from the war then that's when their plot becomes increasingly stronger…!!! So what we have to do is to organize and prepare a new strategy in taking on this war, not stopping to fight. Losing and winning in a battle is a sunnatullah, as a test and lesson for the believers.

Thus, what are the things that need to be considered in developing new strategies in confronting the enemies today…???? Learn from the mistakes of the past. Because experience is the best teacher. The following points may only be a part, but insha Allah are most important to note. The points are:

1. That the lives and safety of a Mujahid is the most important.

Because the existence of a Mujahid is very rare and valuable these days. Amidst the heaviness and burdens from the test on Jihad today, people who want to continue Jihad will be less (according to human reckoning) unless Allah wills otherwise. So the focus is to minimize the risk of getting caught by the enemies by studying the science of intelligence and its technology, the science of guerrilla warfare, exercising the creativity in possessing alibis, etc. etc.… Because the Jihad must be sustainable and it is not a deed for one day or two days only.

2. Strengthening the bond of Ukhuwwah Islamiyah.

With which we will be stronger in bearing the brunt in Jihad, such as taking care of their families who are left behind, seeking to release the captives from the captivity of the Thaghut, etc. etc.… Because this Jihad is the responsibility of us all as Muwahhid Muslims.

Look at the secular people, they can be so compact in the defense of an Indonesian worker overseas who would be executed by beheading in Saudi Arabia. Then, what about us whose hundreds of Mujahideen are in the captivity of the Thaghut…??? They can also be compact in contributing their coins just for one Prita Mulyasari and also recently to mock this country's President who was asking for a pay raise. Then, what about us, with the hundreds our ummahat and their children who are living in misery as their husbands and fathers are imprisoned by the Thaghut…!!! Do not be defeated by them and do not be shy to defend Jihad and the Mujahideen…!!! The enemy could not capture the entire Islamic Ummah, their resources are also limited…!!! Unlike us who rely all the power on Allah Most High and Almighty. Remember that in fact they are WEAK if we are istiqomah in fighting them.

Ya ikhwah…

Do not waste the sacrifices of the Mujahideen who have been sincere in practicing the deeds, let's continue this Jihad. Let's remain PATIENT (sabr) in moving and WISE in strategies. Let the enemies continue the efforts in their plots because indeed that is their nature, but we also have to keep moving in this Jihad (war).

WAllahul Musta’an… HasbunAllah wa ni’mal wakiil… Wa La haula wa laa quwwata illa billah…

If there is something right and useful it comes from Allah the Perfect, and if there is error then the weakness is from me and from Satan, and I seek forgiveness from Allah Ta’ala for it…
