Posted by pt2 on 13/7/2004, 20:49:36, in reply to "“SOUT-UL-Jihaad” INTERVIEWS “SALEH AL-OUFI” " AO: In the name of God and thanks to Him. When we came back to this country and participated with our brothers in the Jihaad in the “Islamic Principality”, we expected anything from this regime except the issuance to the names and the release of the pictures, because America is looking for many of those heroes, we ask God to protect them. When my name was on the first and second lists, I was grateful to God and did not condemn it for three reasons: 1. Because, in fighting the truthful Mujahideen, the regime is trying to put out the light of God by blindly following America and its supporters. The Mujahideen are the first and last danger on the Jews and Christians who are the true strangers, while the Mujahideen belong to the “At-Ta’ifa Al-Mansoura” [the victorious sect]. SAJ: Do you think that, in order for them to escape imprisonment, it is better for you and your “wanted” brothers to go to Iraq at this time and fight the Crusaders there? AO: In the name of God and thanks to Him. God above said: (Believers, fight the Blasphemers who are next to you, let them see the roughness in you, and know that God is on the side of those who fear Him). Based on this, I categorically refuse that I or my “wanted” brothers go to Iraq. Besides, our enemies, the Crusaders, have invaded Iraq through this land. They do not run Iraq’s affairs from there, rather they do it here. The enemies are effectively abundantly present in this Peninsula. Why go follow the Crusaders’ tails when their heads and bases and supports are on this blessed land. As for the fear of imprisonment, this does not discourage the Mujahid from supporting the truth. The Mujahid should pray to God “to keep imprisonment, amputation, and defeat from him”, then rely on Him, may He be praised, go for the Jihaad and weaken the Nation’s enemies, without fear of being blamed. If imprisonment was God’s plan for him, and he was loyal, his efforts will not be wasted and God will not let him down unless he drifts from the way. In general, several people who are better viewed by God than us, and more honoured such as Joseph from the Prophets, peace be on him, and Khubayb, Abdullah Bin Huthafa As-Sahmi, and many others from the Companions, were not influenced by imprisonment. The majority of the truthful, such as Ibn Taymiyya and Ahmad Bin Hanbal, God rest their souls, had been held captive. The honourable Sheikh Abu Muhammad Al-Maqdessi is currently in a Jordanian prison, may God protect him. His captivity made him stronger and more determined. Besides, going to Iraq does not prevent imprisonment. It increases the chance of imprisonment as those who go there shall be unarmed and without protection. In any case, as I said before, imprisonment does not stand in the way of the Jihaad and God knows better. AO: In the name of God and thanks to Him. These negotiations are an indication of a weakness in the regime. As for those who are in charge of them, they are a disgrace to their religion. They are laid back and never fought for or represented the Jihaad or the Mujahideen. The Mujahideen will not listen to or obey those who did not cover their feet with dust for the sake of God; our beloved Prophet Muhammad, prayer and peace upon him, did not give disgrace to his Religion. We are following his law, with God’s permission and we will not give infamy to our Religion. As Omar Bin Al-Khattab said, God be pleased with him: Messenger of God, aren’t we right whether we get killed or we live? He [the Prophet] said: Yes. He [Bin Al-Khattab] said: so, why would there be disgrace in our Religion? Let the whole world know that glory is for God, His Prophet, and the true believers, the Mujahideen. SAJ: Some think that your being out of sight does not serve the cause, whereas your going to a war front outside the Peninsula would be very helpful. What is your comment on that? AO: In the name of God and thanks to Him… Our stay here is a hardship on the Blasphemers, and a boost to the spirits of our brothers from the Mujahideen who lack a little bit of courage to support God’s Religion. Thanks to God, we are not hiding. We are working day and night to defeat the enemies of God. We do not pay attention to anyone, and view both our sleep and awakening as worthy of reward… If the kings and their sons knew how happy we are, they would fight us with the swords to have our happiness. We will not leave this land. It is our land, and we are the grandsons of the “Sahaba” (Companions of the Prophet). How can we leave it? Who had better leave?! us or the rancorous American Crusaders who are occupying our land??! SAJ: Would you like to address a word to the Mujahideen who go to Iraq?
SAJ: How do you feel after your name has appeared on the first and second lists of the “wanted” by the Ministry of Interior? Has this action had any effect on your Jihaad course?
2. Because, thanks to God alone, we were raised above the spearheads of the religion. Therefore, a tax must be paid for this rise; the tax is as high as the level of its payer, hence, it is very expensive.
3. Because God above said in His Noble Book: (Or did you think that you can enter the Heavens without going through the same pains as those before you, who, together with their Prophet, suffered to the extent that they asked: when the victory of God would happen?! Indeed God’s victory shall happen soon). Also because the Prophet, prayer and peace upon him, said: (One is inflicted misfortunes of his calibre). He said too: (Those who suffered most were the Prophets, then those who are similar to them)… We ask God to raise us in both worlds, and enable us to erect the “Islamic State”. Our gratitude is to him in the beginning and in the end.
SAJ: Are you willing to take part in the negotiations initiated by the Minister of Interior, especially that they are conducted by people considered to be part of the Islamic trend?
By God we will not leave this land until the enemies of God do so, and the Religion flag is erected, or otherwise our blood is shed and the land is irrigated with it. We pray that God help us hanging on to this right until we meet Him.
